At Lawrence enterprise.

Inside Zachary office.

"So did you get the reports on Lily whereabouts" Zachary ask looking at kai

"yes boss .....according to report I don't find Mrs Lawrence doing anything suspicious except" kai shudder to answer.

"except" Zachary ask raising one eyebrow.

"except that Mrs Lawrence have taken part in cooking competition reality show" kai answer

"Cooking show....that's interesting" Zachary smirk "She must have used my name or her family name to gain some brownie points"

"Actually sir .....Mrs Lawrence didn't used any last name" Kai said.

Zachary is shock he didn't expected this. He don't know why but day by day Lily seems difficult to understand it seems like whatever picture he had for her is all lie. He don't know how to react. From dress to her habit everything has become new. What he don't understand is she trying to gain his attention or is Lily is really serious about the divorce. He don't know why but all his mind is filled with Lily and because of that he is getting irritated.

kai gulp he really wants to get out of the office. Suddenly the office have become suffocating. What surprise kai is his boss sudden interest in his wife. His boss hate his wife but then why suddenly so much of curiosity. Even kai can see the difference in Lily. For him he never had any judgement about rather he pity her. He saw how longingly Lily look towards Zachary when his boss ignore hers and attentive towards his mistress.

Time could only tell what going to happen and with that thought he left the office as quick as possible, the suffocation is unbearable for him .
