Marcus looked back, and a strange man was holding Lilian's wrist with a serious look."Let go. It's none of your business," Marcus said coldly, looking at him in bored dislike."Who are you to say that's none of my business?" The man was annoyed to laugh, not flinch even a little bit.“She is my wife, and this is a private conversation,” Marcus explained, trying to be patient as best as he could. " 'EX’' wife. We were divorced years ago." Lilian corrected, clarifying there was nothing between them."Sounds like you are the one who needs to back off now." The man said it with an ironic smile."Stop! Both of you! " Lilian demanded with a frown, shaking their hands away while giving the man a look before Marcus wanted to say something."Do you know him? Who is he?" Marcus asked, confused at the intimacy of the look the man and Lilian exchanged."You just realized it until now?" The man smirked at Marcus."I'm Moses. Lilian and I are actually very close, much closer than you think." Mose

Completely exhausted, Marcus finally got home. He was surprised to see Lily there; he thought he would have some alone time after the big fight, and he was not really in the mood for another one again."Why are you here?" Marcus frowned."I just want to apologize for earlier in the office. I'm so sorry. " Lily sounded pitiful with teary eyes as she stood up and walked towards him.“What happened?” Lily immediately noticed the hurt and bruises on his face. She tried to touch his face, but Marcus dodged her.After Lilian slapped him, Moses also punched him, and it turned into a fight between Marcus and Moses, ending with Marcus's friends and the security stopping them. It wasn't that bad since Moses didn't look any better than Marcus.“Nothing happened. It's just an accident.” Marcus answered with a straight face.Lily looked at him suspiciously; she felt it was weird, and it didn't seem like an accident.“What are you doing here?” Marcus changed the subject."You know, I always want to

Lily never expected to see that woman again in her life.Was Lilian back for Marcus? Did Lilian just challenge her to win Marcus back?Her mind was filled with all the possibilities. Lily didn't know why she panicked but she calmed herself for Marcus had chosen her over Lilian before and he would keep choosing her definitely."Is there anything wrong?" Favour looked at Lily worriedly, noticing Lily's expression was a bit off ever since Lily emerged from the washroom."I'm ok." Lily forced a smile but her face was pale as if she just went through something horrible."Come on, it's me. You can tell me anything." Favour insisted, looking Lily in the eyes."Well, I just saw Marcus's ex in the restroom."Lily bited her lower lip a little like she didn't know quite how to say that but she told Favour anyway.“Did she do something to you? Where is she?” Favour asked Lily angrily.Lily looked innocent, she shook her head as she didn't want to cause any trouble, but she glanced at Lilian's dire

Favour grabbed the invitation card rudely from Lilian's hand with her face changed and checked the card thoroughly.Lilian's invitation card was similar to the invitation card Favour got. They had the same format with the same fancy lettering but they were different in details, the most obvious thing was the colour difference.Favour was relieved with a mocking smile while she casually put the invitation card on the security's hand and stated.“It’s a fake invitation card.”The people also started whispering immediately.“She really used a fake invitation card to get in here?” “She is really bold, what is her aim and purpose for coming?”“Who knows? Maybe she's a gold digger?”Lily finally breathed a sigh of relief but she acted like surprised that she never thought Lilian would do that."I believed you. How could you fake the invitation? If you really want to come to the party, you could always come to me and Marcus for help." Lily said in frustration but she smiled to Lilian secret
Pursuing My EX Wife Thirteen
A stunned look on Clara's face as the man's imposing figure emerged from the crowd.“Hello, Mr. Stephan. Is there anything wrong?" Clara put on a smile. Clara didn't expect it would draw Mr. Stephan's awareness. Mr. Stephan was not the kind of person who would get into things like this. So what brought him here now? Clara refused to think about the worst possible scenario."She’s with me." The man's chin pointed in Lilian's direction slightly and a simple statement of his was powerful enough.Clara's biggest fear came true."I'm truly sorry, Mr. Stephan. I don't know that. This must be a misunderstanding." Clara apologized right the second and her face grew pale with great anxiety.The Stephan family was a low-key family which meant it was extremely hard to make a connection with them. Clara's father put in so much effort and prepared a lot to finally have a tiny possibility. The Stephan family was the only reason the whole party existed. Her father would kill her if Clara was the on

“Sorry, I just lost my footing and did not stand still,” Lily's lips curled into a strained smile as she stood up straight, her shoulders squaring, and her eyes wandering in embarrassment. Lilian revealed a hint of disdain in her eyes. She knew exactly what happened, another textbook example of Lily's little tricks, trying to escape and also frame her again, two birds with one stone.If Lily still thought she was the same person Lily could make a fool of, then she was wrong. The old Lilian had died and she was not naive anymore.“It seems you are the one here with no invitation card tho,” Lilian scoffed, she would not let Lily get away easily this time.Lily was shaking in pressure and her breath caught in her throat when she saw everyone whispering and pointing at her.How could she be the one down in the confrontation with Lilian? From when things started to out of her control exactly? What could she do to save it now?Lily's hands fluttered involuntarily and her eyes blinked faste

“I’m so sorry for all the troubles that happened.” Lily's apology spilled out a rush of sincerity and regret the second they got in the car. Her voice trembled when facing Marcus, the dim car interior accentuating the vulnerability etched on her face.Marcus's silence hung heavy, fixed his gaze on the road ahead with his jaw clenched in restraint, punctuated only by the soft hum of the car engine.“I didn’t mean to disturb her, I thought we could be friends but it seems like Lilian still thinks worse of me.” Lily's voice tinged with frustration.Marcus did not pay much attention to what Lily was saying, he was still distraught by everything about Lilian. Why did Lilian come back at this point? Where was she all these years? What was she doing with that man? Why they were so close?There were still a lot of open questions about her on his mind and he couldn't figure out."Have you always been kept in touch with Lilian?" Lily's question drew him back to reality suddenly.Her voice trem

As Lily and Marcus made their way back to the party, they sat down close to each other this time. “I have talked to my business partner, he will take us to meet him later” Marcus told Lily.Lily nodded her head, she was immediately happy when Marcus said this. “Thank you” She smiled.Marcus nodded his head.Soon his business partner approached them. “Moses have agreed to let you meet” He said.“Thank you” Marcus thanked him.“Thank you so much” Lily thanked him with a smile on her face.“It is fine” His business partner said to her before walking away.After a while, Marcus' business partner came to where they were. “He said he is ready to meet you now” He said to him.They both stood up and followed him into one of the rooms.The business partner opened the door, and walked in. Marcus and Lily followed him behind.Lily was taken aback when she spotted Lilian. She had assumed this meeting was purely business-what was a mistress doing here?

“Does she come here often?” Marcus asked the waiter, his tone sharp and commanding. His dark eyes bore into the man behind the counter, leaving little room for hesitation.“W-who?” the waiter stammered, clearly startled.“The lady who just left,” Marcus clarified, his frown deepening. He was already irritated, and the waiter’s stuttering response wasn’t helping.“Oh, yes! Yes, she does,” the waiter replied quickly, nodding as if the movement might save him from further questioning.Marcus gave a slight nod of acknowledgment but said nothing further. He turned and walked back toward Nick, his frustration evident in his measured steps.“Let’s go,” Marcus said curtly, his voice low and tense.Nick raised an eyebrow, watching his friend with an amused smirk. “What did you ask him? You scared the guy half to death,” he teased, his tone light despite Marcus’s evident bad mood.Marcus ignored him, striding toward his car with purpose. He unlocked it with a click and slid into the driver’s se

Here is the expanded, revised version of your chapter with enhanced detail, improved flow, and grammar corrections, extended to about 1000 words while strictly maintaining your original scenes:Lilian did not notice Marcus when she entered the coffee shop. Her eyes swept briefly over the tables and customers, but she seemed preoccupied, heading directly to the counter where a young waiter stood, looking a bit tired.“Hello, I need two cups of coffee,” she said politely, her tone calm yet firm.The waiter looked up, slightly surprised. He hadn’t expected such politeness from her for some reason. “Do you want an Americano or just regular coffee?” he asked with a smile, trying to be friendly.“Regular,” Lilian replied without hesitation, her gaze fixed on the menu board above his head, though it was clear she wasn’t really reading it.“Alright, please hold on,” the waiter said as he quickly began preparing the order. He glanced back at Lilian, curious about her demeanor. There was someth

Marcus and his friend Nick decided to collaborate on a project. They went to a nearby restaurant to grab some coffee and finalize the document they had been working on. It was a busy afternoon, and the café was filled with people chatting, sipping their drinks, and typing away on laptops. The smell of freshly brewed coffee lingered in the air, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.Sitting across from each other at a small round table, they both took a moment to enjoy their drinks. The clinking of cups and the hum of conversation around them created a comfortable background noise. Nick took a sip of his coffee and then glanced up at Marcus with a curious expression.“When are you getting married to Lily?” Nick asked suddenly, raising an eyebrow. It was a question that seemed to come out of nowhere, catching Marcus off guard.Marcus frowned slightly. The idea of marrying Lily had been floating around for a while, but something about it didn’t feel right. He couldn’t quite put his fin

Lilian swiftly finished typing the last few sentences of her report and double-checked the numbers in her spreadsheet. Satisfied, she saved her work and closed her laptop. With a sigh of relief, she leaned back in her chair, stretching out her arms to release the tension from a long day of staring at the screen.It was already past 5 PM, and she knew her brother Moses had gone to pick up their younger cousin, Matt, from school. That meant she didn’t have to worry about running any errands today. She could head home straight from work, and she was looking forward to a quiet evening to herself—maybe a nice takeout dinner and a movie.Grabbing her bag and slinging it over her shoulder, Lilian took one last look around her desk, making sure everything was in order. She flipped off her desk lamp and made her way to the door, her heels clicking softly on the polished floor.She pressed the elevator button and waited, glancing around the nearly empty office floor. Most of her coworkers had a

Marcus’ assistant walked in the moment Marcus called for him.“Sir, you called for me?” His assistant asked respectfully.“Give the gift to her,” Marcus said, running a hand through his hair, his expression serious but a hint of uncertainty in his eyes.“What?” His assistant was stunned. He knew the gift was meant for Lilian, not Lily. He was shocked by Marcus’ change of mind.“Didn’t you hear me?” Lily said, her voice dripping with a mixture of smug satisfaction and playful confidence. “I asked you earlier when I saw you at the receptionist’s desk if the gift was for you, and you told me no. So, it’s clearly meant for me now, right?”Her words stung, but Marcus’ assistant kept his thoughts to himself. But it’s really not for you, he thought inwardly, though he dared not challenge his superior’s decision.“Alright, I will bring the gift then,” the assistant said, bowing slightly before turning to leave. “Please excuse me, Miss Lily.”Lily watched him walk out of the office with a sati

Back at the CompanyMarcus sat in his office, dressed in his finest suit, checking his wristwatch for the umpteenth time. The moment had finally come. He had carefully planned this. It had been years since he last saw Lilian—since they were married, in fact—but today, he hoped to make a gesture that might bring them back together. He had chosen a beautiful dress and a bouquet of flowers, hoping they would remind Lilian of the good times they once shared.Marcus reached for the small bottle of perfume on his desk. It was a gift from Lilian, given to him when they were still together. He hadn’t paid much attention to it at the time, but now, as he spritzed it onto his wrist, he realized how pleasant it smelled. He had never truly appreciated it before. The fragrance seemed to envelop him with a sense of nostalgia.He took one last look in the mirror, checking his appearance. His hair, freshly trimmed by his stylist yesterday, was perfectly styled. He had tried to look his best for this

The office phone rang, slicing through the quiet of Lilian’s workday. She glanced at the screen, slightly annoyed by the interruption. Without hesitation, she picked up the receiver.“Hello?” she answered, her voice steady but laced with curiosity.“Miss Lilian, there’s a delivery for you—flowers and a gown,” the receptionist said, her tone a little shy, as if unsure how to break the news.Lilian’s brow furrowed at the mention of a delivery. She hadn’t ordered anything, and she wasn’t expecting a gift from anyone. The idea felt foreign, almost out of place.“Oh?” she replied, her voice tinged with suspicion. She raised an eyebrow. “I’ll be downstairs in a moment,” she added, before hanging up and standing from her desk.As Lilian stood up, her heart began to beat a little faster. It wasn’t fear—more a sense of confusion. The unexpected nature of the delivery threw her off. Who could be sending her flowers and a gown? It seemed unlike her to have such surprises.She walked out of her o

“What the hell?” Mrs. Thompson exclaimed, her eyes glued to the screen.Aria was caught off guard. She had just come back from dropping her cousin off at school and was entering the house when she heard her mother’s exclamation.“What’s wrong?” Aria asked, her voice filled with confusion.“She’s back!” Mrs. Thompson said, her frown deepening as she pointed at the TV.Aria blinked in confusion. “Who?” she asked, still trying to make sense of the situation.“Lilian,” Mrs. Thompson replied, her voice laced with distaste, her finger still pointing at the screen.Aria followed her mother’s gaze to the TV. On the screen, Lilian was standing behind Moses during an interview. Aria’s eyes immediately landed on Moses, her breath catching in her throat.‘He looks so handsome,’ she muttered to herself, a dreamy expression forming on her face.“Did you say something?” Mrs. Thompson asked, her tone sharp as she turned to look at her daughter. She had caught the murmur but wasn’t sure what Aria had

Lilian stepped into the office, her heels clicking on the polished floor. As she did, she cleared her throat, the sound cutting through the tense air. Her eyes immediately landed on Emily, who stood too close to her brother’s desk, acting as though she was busy with something important. When Emily saw Lilian walk in, she stiffened, her face paling. She quickly stepped back, trying to act casual, but it was obvious she was caught off guard.Before Lilian had entered, Emily had assumed that Lilian must have taken the day off. That’s why she had taken the opportunity to come into the office herself, pretending to deliver some documents. Her true intentions, however, were less than professional. Emily had been hoping to get closer to Moses, perhaps to gain his attention, or more. But now, with Lilian standing in the doorway, all of that was quickly falling apart.Lilian’s eyes narrowed as she scanned the room, noticing Moses asleep at his desk, looking slightly disheveled. She couldn’t h
