They walked into the hospital together, their footsteps echoing against the pristine white tiles.Lilian stood beside her father and two brothers, their expressions a mix of anticipation and unease. On the opposite side of the room, Moses and Lily stood together. Moses’ jaw was clenched, his arms crossed tightly over his chest. His expression was unreadable, but the tension in his stance was impossible to miss.A thick silence hung in the air, weighing down on them all.Finally, the doctor entered the room. He was a tall man with sharp features and an air of authority about him. He approached them with a serious expression, his hands gripping a large manila envelope.“Good morning,” he greeted, his gaze settling on Moses.Moses gave him a short nod. “What are the results of the DNA test?” His voice was firm, devoid of any pleasantries.The doctor hesitated for a brief moment before handing him the envelope. “Here,” he said, his tone neutral, professional.Moses took it without a word.

Lily walked into the house, her legs feeling as heavy as lead. Her mind was clouded, her body drained of energy. She had spent the entire day in a nightmare she couldn’t wake up from.Her mother, who had been lounging on the couch, immediately sat up when she saw the expression on Lily’s face. A frown creased her forehead as worry settled deep in her features.“What’s wrong? What happened?” she asked urgently.Lily didn’t answer right away. She felt numb, as though her brain had short-circuited from the weight of everything that had happened. Slowly, she made her way to the couch and sat down, pressing her palms against her lap.Her mother’s frown deepened.“Did something happen?” she pressed. “You told me Moses asked you to come over. Why do you look so restless now?”She had expected Lily to return home full of joy, just like she had been in the past few weeks. Instead, her daughter sat there looking as if the world had collapsed on top of her.Lily took a shaky breath, her heart st

Mrs. Thompson sat in the grand living room of the Thompson estate, her hands trembling with excitement as she dialed Marcus’s number. She had been trying to contain her emotions ever since she received the news, but it was impossible.Her heart pounded in her chest as she pressed the phone to her ear.After a few rings, Marcus finally answered.“Mom,” he said, his voice tired and slightly irritated. “I’m at work. What’s wrong?”Mrs. Thompson barely noticed the exhaustion in his tone.“Marcus!” she called out eagerly.Marcus sighed. “What is it?”Mrs. Thompson took a deep breath, trying to control the excitement in her voice.“Is it true?” she asked, her voice laced with anticipation. “The child in Lilian’s care—he’s yours? Your biological son?”There was a brief pause on the other end.Marcus’s tone sharpened. “Who told you that?”Mrs. Thompson gasped, her excitement only growing. “So, it’s true? The child is really yours?” She let out a breathless laugh. “This is wonderful!”“Mom!” M

Marcus arrived at the restaurant first.He glanced around, his eyes scanning the warm, dimly lit space. The café was quiet, filled with the soft hum of conversation and the gentle clinking of coffee cups against saucers. A faint aroma of roasted beans and vanilla lingered in the air, mingling with the scent of fresh pastries from the counter.Lilian hadn’t arrived yet, but he wasn’t in a hurry. He tapped his fingers against the table, trying to calm his nerves. He had played this conversation over and over in his head, rehearsed every possible response she could give. But no amount of preparation could erase the uncertainty that gnawed at him.Would she even listen to him?Would she shut him down before he could explain?Or worse—would she walk away, just like she did all those years ago?Marcus sighed, running a hand through his hair. He had no one to blame but himself for how things had turned out.Just as he reached for his coffee, the door opened, and his breath caught.Lilian ste

Lilian walked into the house, her mind clouded with thoughts.She had always been good at keeping her emotions in check, but today, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t hide the storm brewing inside her. She had spent the entire ride home replaying Marcus’s words in her head, trying to make sense of everything.He wanted to be in Matt’s life.It had taken him years to say those words, but now that he had, what was she supposed to do?She sighed heavily as she stepped inside.The familiar warmth of home should have comforted her, but instead, it felt suffocating. Her father and brothers were in the living room, chatting casually, but the moment she entered, their attention snapped to her.Noah, her older brother, immediately noticed the shift in her demeanor. His eyes narrowed as he studied her face.“What happened?” he asked, his voice firm but laced with concern. “Did someone bully you?”Lilian shook her head quickly. “No, no. I’m fine.”She forced a smile, but it was weak—bare

Marcus had just settled into his office chair when a knock echoed through the room. He paused, already knowing who it was.“Come in,” he called, his voice even.The door swung open, and Hilary, his personal assistant, stepped inside—but he wasn’t alone.A small boy walked beside him, his hands tucked into the pockets of his shorts, his curious eyes scanning the office.Marcus’s breath hitched. He froze, his pulse hammering in his ears as he took in the sight before him.Matt.For a brief moment, Marcus felt like the air had been sucked from the room. He hadn’t expected to see him this soon—hadn’t even prepared for it. Lilian had accepted his proposal so fast. Too fast.His mind raced, trying to make sense of the situation. Did she really agree? Or was this something else entirely?Pushing down his unease, he quickly composed himself. He didn’t want to scare the boy.“Uh… how are you doing?” Marcus asked, his tone carefully controlled as he forced a small smile.Matt met his gaze and n

Lily walked out of the office with a deep frown on her face. This was not the result she wanted at all—this was not what she had expected.She had been so sure that Mrs. Thompson, desperate for a grandchild, would react explosively to the news. She had expected shouting, accusations, and a dramatic scene that would shake both families.But instead, everything had been settled too smoothly. Too quietly.That only made her more uneasy.Lily clenched her fists, frustration bubbling inside her. She hailed a taxi immediately, knowing that her family’s company was teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. They needed a cooperation agreement desperately to survive. But it seemed like every road was blocked. There was nowhere left to turn.Her phone buzzed in her hand.Pulling it out, she saw her mother’s name flashing on the screen. She answered swiftly, pressing the phone to her ear.“Hello?”“Where are you?” her mother’s anxious voice came through. “The shareholders are outside the company, dem

Marcus drove directly to Lilian’s company. The ride had been mostly quiet, with Matt seated beside him, occasionally glancing out of the window. The late afternoon sun cast a golden hue over the city, making everything glow in soft amber. The drive wasn’t too long, but it felt longer due to the silence between them.As soon as Marcus pulled into the company’s parking lot, he shifted the gear into park and turned off the engine. The only sound that followed was Matt’s seatbelt clicking open. The boy turned to look at Marcus with a slightly raised eyebrow, a hint of curiosity flashing in his young eyes.“I thought you said you were bringing me to your house?” Matt asked, his voice questioning but not upset.Marcus smiled, resting one arm on the steering wheel as he looked at the boy. “Your mom would be so worried if I did that,” he said in a calm tone. “We’ll go there next time—whenever you want.” His voice was filled with reassurance, making sure Matt knew that he wasn’t breaking any p

Pursuing My EX Wife Epilogue
“Daddy! Mom is looking for you!” Matt called out, his voice urgent.Marcus immediately stepped into the room and hurried toward Lilian, who sat on the bed, cradling her swollen belly.“Are you okay?” he asked, his eyes scanning her face for any sign of distress.Lilian let out a shaky breath. “I think my water just broke,” she said.Marcus’ eyes widened. He turned to Matt without hesitation.“Go find your uncles and grandma. Tell them your mom is in labor.”Matt didn’t waste a second. He spun around and dashed out of the room, his heart racing with excitement. His baby sister was finally coming!Lilian was rushed to the hospital without delay.Inside the delivery room, Marcus refused to leave her side. He hadn’t been there for Matt’s birth, and he wasn’t about to miss this one.But as he watched Lilian endure contraction after contraction, pain twisting her face, he felt helpless. His fists clenched at his sides. He wished he could take the pain for her.He tightened his grip on her h

Matt’s eyes were fixed on the big screen, his brows furrowed in deep concentration.“Is it impossible to crack?” he asked, turning to Marcus.Marcus shrugged. “Seems like it.”Matt studied him for a moment, then narrowed his eyes at the screen. “I can try,” he said.Marcus stood up, making room for Matt to take his place at the laptop.The moment Matt’s fingers touched the keyboard, they moved with a speed and precision that left Marcus stunned. He had never seen Matt type before, and watching him now was mesmerizing. He did it with such ease, such confidence—it was clear he knew exactly what he was doing.Marcus crossed his arms and nodded in approval, feeling an unexpected surge of pride.“Done!” Matt announced, a triumphant smile spreading across his face.Marcus immediately leaned in, eyes scanning the screen. His breath caught for a second—Matt had actually done it. The code was cracked.“Wow,” Marcus muttered, a rare smile tugging at the corners of his lips. “Good job.”Without

Lilian walked into the house that evening, surprised to see her father with an elderly man. They were deep in conversation, as if they had been friends for years. “Dad,” Lilian greeted him. Gabriel looked up and smiled. “You’re back. How was work?” he asked. “It was fine, Dad,” she replied, turning her attention to the elderly man. “Good evening, sir,” she greeted him politely. “How are you doing?” the man asked, his face lighting up with a warm smile. “I’m doing very well, sir. What about you?” Lilian responded, offering him a smile of her own. “I’m doing fine. You look so beautiful,” the old man said, nodding his head approvingly. Lilian blushed at the compliment. “Thank you, sir.” “This is Marcus’ grandfather,” Gabriel introduced. Lilian froze in surprise. She had never met Marcus’ grandfather before. This was her first time meeting him. “Oh! Hello, sir!” she greeted him warmly, now understanding who he was. “We never met when you and Marcus were still together,” the old

The next day, Linda was arrested and charged with attempted murder and kidnapping. Additionally, her history of bullying had led to a young woman’s suicide, further worsening her case. The weight of her crimes was undeniable, and with the overwhelming evidence against her, there was no room for denial.As soon as the police took her into custody, news of her arrest spread quickly. Social media was flooded with posts about the woman who had orchestrated kidnappings, attempted murders, and had driven someone to their death through sheer cruelty.In the cold, gray confines of the prison, Linda sat on a hard bench, her arms crossed tightly over her chest. The prison cell smelled of rust and sweat, and the metal bars that caged her in seemed to close in more with each passing second.Then, the sound of approaching footsteps made her stiffen. She looked up, and her expression immediately twisted into one of pure hatred.The man she had once deceived—manipulated into risking his life for her

Marcus sat at his desk, fingers moving swiftly across his laptop keyboard as he reviewed the latest security reports. His office was quiet except for the rhythmic tapping of his fingers. The sunlight streaming through the window cast a soft glow on the room, highlighting the expensive furnishings and the neatly organized stacks of paperwork on his desk.A sudden knock at the door interrupted his focus.“Come in,” he called out without looking up.The door swung open, and when he finally looked up, he was surprised to see Lilian standing there with Matt by her side.His brows lifted slightly, but his expression quickly softened. He hadn’t expected to see them today.Matt, beaming with excitement, didn’t wait for an invitation. He stepped forward, walking straight toward Marcus’s desk.“Good morning!” the boy greeted enthusiastically.Marcus stood from his chair, his gaze shifting between Lilian and Matt. His lips curled into a rare, genuine smile. “Good morning, Matt. How are you?”“I’

Marcus shrugged and turned to Moses, pulling out his phone. With a swipe, he brought up a picture of Linda and held it out for him to see.Moses squinted at the image, his brow furrowing. Something about her seemed familiar, but he couldn’t quite place it.“She…” he muttered, trying to recall. He knew this woman—he was sure of it. But from where?“She used to work for your company,” Marcus supplied, his tone flat. “She got fired, and after that, she developed a deep hatred for Lilian. She believed Lilian was the reason she lost her job.”Moses clenched his fists. “Damn it.” His jaw tightened as guilt weighed down on him. He should have been keeping an eye on Linda, should have monitored her actions. If he had, maybe Lilian wouldn’t have been dragged into this mess.Marcus exhaled sharply before turning back to the captive man. He crossed his arms and studied him carefully. “Sooo… are you ready?” he asked, his tone casual but laced with authority.The man slowly lifted his head, his ex

Marcus pulled out his phone as he strode into the dimly lit warehouse. His fingers moved swiftly across the screen as he dialed Moses’ number.The call connected after two rings.“Who else did you tell about me taking those men to the warehouse?” Marcus asked, his voice calm but firm.Moses hesitated for a second before answering, “Noah.”Marcus frowned slightly. “Is he a hacker?”“No, he’s not. Why? What’s wrong?” Moses’ voice carried a hint of concern. “Did they escape?”“No, they didn’t.” Marcus’ eyes darkened as he recalled the email Hilary had received. “But my assistant just got an email… and it contains every detail we need.”There was silence on the other end for a moment before Moses spoke again. “Where are you right now?”“I’m on my way to the warehouse,” Marcus replied as he continued walking.“Okay, I’m coming now,” Moses said. Marcus could hear the rustling of movement, as if he was already getting up.“Alright.” Marcus ended the call.The cold, musty air of the warehouse

Lilian woke up to the sound of the door creaking open. A soft shuffle of footsteps followed, and she turned her head in the direction of the noise. The doctor and a nurse walked in, their expressions neutral but observant as they approached.She sat up slowly, rubbing her temples as confusion settled in. Something felt… off. Her eyes widened when she looked down and realized she was lying on the hospital bed.How?She clearly remembered sitting on the chair by Marcus’ bedside. She had rested her head against the mattress for a bit, but she was certain she had never moved. Had someone placed her on the bed while she was asleep? But who?Her gaze flickered toward Marcus, who was still sitting in the chair beside her, watching her with a calm expression.The doctor and nurse also seemed surprised to find her in bed instead of the chair. The doctor hesitated for a moment before finally speaking.“Good morning, sir,” he greeted Marcus respectfully.Marcus gave a curt nod, acknowledging him
