Chasing My Rejected Wife Episode 11: An Unexpected Encounter

Aileen Smith sat in her office, gazing out of the large floor-to-ceiling windows that overlooked the cityscape. Her heart, however, was elsewhere—caught up in the whirlwind of emotions that had been consuming her since that fateful realization. The enigmatic, powerful billionaire who was now her boss was none other than Lance Thompson, the very man she had been married to for a year. The irony wasn’t lost on her. They had shared a legal bond for twelve months, yet their encounters had been so rare that she barely remembered what he looked like. But now, fate had thrown them together in the most unexpected way.

In Chasing My Rejected Wife Episode 11, the tangled web of emotions begins to unravel, and Aileen finds herself confronting the man she had once believed to be a stranger, but who was in fact, her elusive husband.

Chasing My Rejected Wife Episode 11: The Day After Realization

The previous night had been sleepless for Aileen. She tossed and turned, her mind racing with disbelief and confusion. How could she not have known? How could she, Aileen Smith, be so clueless about the identity of the man who now occupied her every waking thought?

As she sat at her desk, Aileen’s mind drifted back to the past year. Her marriage to Lance had been nothing more than a formality, a contract hastily arranged by their families. She had never questioned why he was always absent, and in turn, she had thrown herself into her work, focusing on her career. They lived separate lives, barely crossing paths, and it had always seemed like they were nothing more than strangers sharing a legal document.

Now, everything had changed.

Her fingers drummed lightly on her desk as she wondered what to do next. Should she confront him? Should she act like she didn’t know? The thought of facing Lance made her stomach twist, but she knew she couldn’t avoid him forever.

Chasing My Rejected Wife Episode 11: The Elevator Confrontation

The moment came sooner than expected. As Aileen left her office to head for a quick coffee break, the elevator doors opened, and there he was. Lance Thompson, her boss... her husband. The air in the elevator seemed to grow thicker, and Aileen hesitated for a split second before stepping inside. Her heart pounded in her chest, but she schooled her features into a calm, composed mask.

Lance, on the other hand, seemed completely unaware of her inner turmoil. He stood tall, exuding his usual air of confidence and authority, his piercing eyes momentarily glancing her way before returning to the phone in his hand. His presence filled the small space, making Aileen feel both nervous and slightly intimidated.

The elevator descended in silence, the tension between them almost unbearable. Aileen’s mind raced, her hands trembling slightly as she gripped her purse tighter. She could feel the weight of the unsaid words pressing down on her.

Should she say something? Should she finally break the silence?

As if sensing her inner conflict, Lance suddenly lowered his phone and turned toward her. His gaze met hers, and for a moment, Aileen forgot how to breathe. His eyes, so cold and distant in the past, now seemed to hold something deeper, something she couldn’t quite place.

“You seem... different today,” he said, his voice smooth but laced with curiosity.

Aileen’s heart skipped a beat. Did he suspect that she knew? Her throat felt dry, and she struggled to find her voice. “Do I?” she replied, keeping her tone neutral.

Lance narrowed his eyes slightly, as if trying to read her thoughts. “Yes. Is everything alright?”

She swallowed hard. “Yes, of course. Everything’s fine.” It was a lie, but what else could she say? That she had just discovered that the man she was falling for was the very same man she was legally bound to?

The elevator dinged, signaling their arrival on the ground floor. Aileen stepped out quickly, eager to escape the suffocating atmosphere. She didn’t notice that Lance followed closely behind until they reached the lobby.

“Aileen,” his deep voice called after her, stopping her in her tracks.

She turned to face him, her pulse racing. His expression was unreadable, but there was a flicker of something in his eyes—something almost... vulnerable? Or was she just imagining it?

“I want to talk to you,” he said, his tone firm but not harsh.

Aileen’s heart hammered in her chest. This was it. Was he finally going to acknowledge their marriage? Were they going to address the truth that had been hiding in plain sight all this time?

“About what?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

He hesitated for a moment before speaking again. “About... us.”

Her breath caught in her throat. Us. The word hung in the air between them, heavy with unspoken meaning.

“What do you mean?” she asked, playing dumb, though her heart was already screaming with anticipation.

Lance’s gaze softened, just for a moment, before he seemed to regain his composure. “I’ve been thinking... perhaps it’s time we stop pretending.”

Aileen’s stomach twisted with a mixture of hope and dread. Stop pretending? Did that mean he knew? Did he want to talk about their marriage? Or was he referring to something else entirely?

“Pretending?” she echoed, her voice steady despite the storm of emotions swirling inside her.

Lance took a step closer, his presence overwhelming. “Pretending that we’re just boss and employee. We both know that’s not all there is between us.”

Aileen’s heart nearly stopped. This was it—the moment of truth. She could feel the walls between them crumbling, and yet, a part of her still wasn’t ready. Could she really confront the reality of their relationship now, when so much was still unsaid?

But just as Aileen was about to speak, about to open her heart and confront the truth head-on, a sudden interruption shattered the moment.

“Mr. Thompson, there’s an urgent call for you,” said Jacob, Lance’s assistant, hurrying over with a worried expression on his face.

Lance’s jaw tightened in frustration, but he nodded. “I’ll be right there,” he said before turning back to Aileen. “We’ll finish this conversation later.”

Aileen could only nod, her emotions whirling in confusion. As she watched Lance walk away, she felt both relieved and disappointed. The moment had passed, and the truth remained unspoken.

But deep down, she knew that this was only the beginning. Lance had opened the door, and sooner or later, they would have to face the reality of their marriage. Whether they liked it or not, their paths were now intertwined in ways neither of them could ignore.

Chasing My Rejected Wife Episode 11: Aileen’s Resolve

Later that evening, Aileen sat in her apartment, staring out the window at the city lights. Her mind was still racing, replaying the day’s events over and over again. Lance had wanted to talk to her, to acknowledge that there was more between them than just their professional relationship. But what did that mean for their marriage?

Aileen felt a surge of determination. She wasn’t the same naïve woman she had been a year ago. She had grown stronger, more independent. If Lance wanted to talk about their relationship, then she would be ready. She would face him head-on and demand answers.

The episode ended with Aileen standing in front of the mirror, her reflection a picture of strength and resolve. She had spent too long in the dark, too long allowing others to control her fate. But no more.

In the next episode, Aileen would confront Lance—about their past, their marriage, and everything that had been left unsaid.

Her heart might still be conflicted, but her mind was clear: It was time to stop running and face the truth.
