Episode 5 — "The Ex Who Came Back"

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmjOVA8DKk

Liam got exactly what he wanted.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwERoF8Ydz

Adrian stopped smiling at him.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmI3eWmldsj

Stopped teasing him.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFbG5f55VR

Stopped holding doors open for him.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPo15i8Xq3

Stopped waiting for him after work.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDee5GdiRd

Stopped talking to him.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpeQtA0Kxu

Completely.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqolhrokJjz

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkg4z4D9M1

---

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6G9PTi3FVG

Three days.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0nxHeF4WV

Three whole days.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoA8PhemcYT

Not a single text.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeA8ezgW8WM

Not a single call.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hXc3xFthz

Not even a sarcastic remark.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnjrdzKIQs

Only professional emails.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXUC6O2V2j

> From: Adrian Cross

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSI5XJ9Aa9

Subject: Marketing Proposal

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjvvqGbjdG

Please revise slide 12.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GWn8I0Va3

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCm2WUzEJ9

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeMMWkn7tJ

That was it.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEllzdoNj8

No Good morning.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDokXS1X5XJ

No Mr. Hart.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6N3T85b29Q

No annoying comments.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcA3svJdT2

Nothing.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zIZtVPhOC

Liam should've been happy.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNFFdyyy7K

He asked for this.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIGDJVvXRp

So why did it feel...

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pMIXDzDYl

Lonely?

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06Q12UVr3R

Impossible.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Fw8W6tJ0d

Ridiculous.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz39ltjcx8f

Absolutely ridiculous.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyYV9BtOHU

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar8tbuqlFF

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhzRYBaYgX

Scarlett sighed.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ099aTAJDlL

"You miss him."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuP8SWg7Bo3

Liam nearly choked on his coffee.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAvRaeTzEt

"I do not."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJoI9vBgfX

"You do."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUyt4Z1kef

"No."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1kafmWY8M

"Then why are you staring at the CEO's office?"

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo40iR4r43C

Liam looked away immediately.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrWxYJxiW1

"I was looking at the window."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttSj7BqPdH

"On the 37th floor?"

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdwnVSyQ7k

"...Maybe."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2K7LJNKbii

Scarlett smiled.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeBZ7CdgBt

"Hopeless."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BoqmKyWy3

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyXLqJvKya

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmindvdo8F

Meanwhile—

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPsXHDnfPv

Inside Adrian's office.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxObmpqKFX

Nathaniel watched him work.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJCIut70fL

Suspiciously.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2jbkWurA7

Very suspiciously.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihNYOEuXdi

"Sir."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqO79gJfeQV

"Hm."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwbqm5yMVT

"You haven't insulted Liam in three days."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8HAwh1ma8

"I never insult him."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIx0Y5mOEa

"You called him dramatic."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgKVAGDlmt

"He is."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHBHvhsWgV

"You called him emotional."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYOQG4gkTw

"He is."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47y5kFo40H

"You called him a walking disaster."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7c1nBaWsA

"He kissed his CEO."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgcO4mOsce

Nathaniel nodded.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIhIJUfc07

Fair.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQ9G3Jn3Cb

Still—

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6GXawZzDy

Adrian seemed different.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hvHnFpviW

Quieter.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpP2VhWnkma

Colder.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CzIMFo3FL

More distant.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuxF4awnCb

Exactly what Liam wanted.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2S7F4TVLy9

Yet somehow...

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodtQhFiQls

No one seemed happy.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEh1b38EMq

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLn6y6Q0gXh

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4ZDWMQL1Y

That afternoon—

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUxiCC0MMV

Liam returned home exhausted.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2gQhuynpS

Only to find someone standing outside his apartment.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcOERjs9QC

Tall.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3Tn8knCRm

Familiar.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRgW7pTcKF

Holding flowers.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71WZlCTnnq

Smiling nervously.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphpglIEQj9

Liam froze.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KIg3pcwuZ

His heart stopped.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PVMQP0X9t

No.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1Gd40M1aP

No way.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYytOGsnWH9

It couldn't be.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JLG30JpQa

The man looked up.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSF1rfsmnr

Soft brown hair.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWtbLxkH1c

Warm eyes.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcIYn77k58

The same face Liam spent years trying to forget.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgp6sZR4xtc

Nathan Cole.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrngEJ2jkE

His ex-boyfriend.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPaEQUgJoZ

The man who cheated.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1niP8ZebUm

The man who left.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqu61m7YFj0

The man who got engaged.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YG8cXlh52

Nathan smiled weakly.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTbA1nTTWG

"Hi, Liam."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPULhH838p6

Silence.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyGoHwqWls

Complete silence.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlk5lMQFQk

Liam stared.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXxEFBUPGu

"...What are you doing here?"

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdVzNBA1M8

Nathan rubbed the back of his neck.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpXSRPl2YY

"I wanted to see you."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIeVcphoIp

"Why?"

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQqHxakhIh

"My engagement ended."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAJUA704g7

Liam blinked.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3T6BToZ1R9

"Oh."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2a5Dtkv13q

Nathan took a step closer.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWSEGi3a5v

"I made a mistake."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UQA8wGRWu

Liam didn't answer.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFrYCnp9uH

"I shouldn't have left."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBZWtzAVyG

No answer.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa85ON5DXTa

"I miss you."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJSjhKiIzk

Still nothing.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1PVnu44Hp

Nathan lowered his voice.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNvDplxoe9

"I still love you."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiehIpy2kZJ

Liam looked down.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqYWrf3kJN

Three months ago—

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNFkbT2lbB

Those words would've made him cry.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhi6v6d9z7

Six months ago—

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstg3U5hOxp

He would've immediately forgiven him.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAZWZkCl27

But now...

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MrCVtVlso

He felt strangely calm.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnxAFe4YFA

Strangely empty.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWurIp561F2

Nathan smiled softly.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35TcVdRwYo

"Can we start over?"

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VogdNJj5R

Liam opened his mouth.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypX6Mr1tbU

Ready to answer.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcS0wh9oflg

Ready to say something.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySJrWbfi1X

Anything.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq71ixLyNwA

Then—

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuSWsMgJq3

A black car stopped nearby.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DL7CXv3g5

The window rolled down.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo43TZKAT0H

Adrian sat inside.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriD9eKuopo

Expression unreadable.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6mciZckLz

Dark eyes fixed on Nathan.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtX1PSU36N

Then on Liam.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07fksgQkmj

Neither moved.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhR6QYCafTQ

Neither spoke.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YyvRTeC89

Adrian simply looked away.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaAuncDg4e

And told the driver,

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyjevV8hnB

"Let's go."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMmhcVKgCc

The car drove off.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHEasaXulZ

Just like that.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQs4NQRvEi

Without saying a word.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXueqMC7QPh

Without asking a question.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TIbFJdFuB

Without fighting for him.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnVi7qcLQJ

Liam watched the disappearing car.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyoQK06fAU

For some reason—

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50YDbWVDiN

His chest hurt.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQromrGFNr

More than when Nathan cheated.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IxxgMz5Or

More than when Nathan left.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayYK3MUGOa

And suddenly—

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsmrIKOgp2

Liam realized something terrifying.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqj83qaVYBh

He had spent years missing his ex.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZwBW7lyZL

But the person he wanted to chase after...

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNjf8PmfGo

Was Adrian.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEMONk4igc

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdPBNHoOsH

---

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaKNCMY1UC

Nathan smiled.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAv3W13zX1

"So..."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3ASxvALWR

"Will you give me another chance?"

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYJBgxFvhu

Liam remained silent.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CiKpT3YOh

Eyes still fixed on the road Adrian had taken.

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknqqq6LBvS

Then quietly whispered,

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq705Fl5b3j

"...I don't know."

54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QIbjk0bka
