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

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? A familiar frustration bubbled beneath the s

Lilian's brow furrowed, her lips pressing into a thin line. She crossed her arms tightly, her gaze narrowing as she turned away, trying to mask the frustration bubbling inside her. “Who told you that?” She asked him.Matt shrugged. “Nobody I just thought you two will look so compatible that is all” He said with a smile on his face. He looked at Lilian and saw that she was a bit angry. Matt blinked his eyes. “Did I say anything wrong?” He asked her.Lilian shook her head, “No it is not your fault” She answered.“I will tell grandpa then when he calls” Matt said smiling happily.“Matt” Lilian called in a serious tone.“That man is already engaged with someone else and they are planning to get married soon. So you don’t want to ruin the engagement right?” Lilian asked him gently.Matt's brow furrowed, disappointment flickering in his eyes. With a reluctant nod, he acquiesced, knowing he had no choice.“Good boy,” Lilian said with a smile on her face. “Come let’s go and give you a hot sh

The party has already started before she got there. Lilian glided into the party, her red dress flowing gracefully around her. The sharp click of her heels echoed in the bustling room, a confident rhythm that announced her arrival.As soon as the CEO spotted her, he moved forward with a welcoming smile. “Hello, Miss Lilian! I'm glad you made it,” he exclaimed, his eyes lighting up.Lilian surveyed the hall. Though the gathering was modest, it buzzed with distinguished guests, each one deep in conversation and laughter.There were also several company bosses at the dinner and everyone was drinking and chatting happily. “Yes, hope you are fine?” Lilian asked him with a soft smile on her face.“Of course. Is Mr Moses here too?” He asked as he looked behind her. Lilian smiled, “No he is not coming” She answered.He was a bit disappointed because he felt that Lilian might not really be good in this but he was still happy regardless because at least she showed up. “Come and have a sit h

“Do you even know how to play it?” Marcus asked in a cold tone. Marcus's eyes narrowed, his jaw tightening as he watched Lilian roll the dice. A flicker of disbelief crossed his face, as if he expected her confidence to crumble at any moment.Lilian ignored him and acted like she did not hear his words.They started the game.The first person threw a dice and will ask the person next to it to guess the number of dice. If the person guesses wrong. The loser will drink alcohol.Soon it got to Lilian’s turn, she looked at the dice carefully as the person used his hand and covered it. “Seven” Lilian said.The person removed his hand and she was right. It was really seven. A rush of excitement surged through Lilian as the dice revealed the number. She couldn't help but smile, the thrill of the game igniting a sense of confidence she hadn't felt in a long time. Maybe this night would turn out better than she expected.Marcus crossed his arms, a skeptical frown etched on his face.As Lil

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

Lilian’s gaze dropped to Marcus’s arm, her brows furrowing at the sight of the fresh wounds. His knuckles were red and raw, and there was a thin trickle of blood trailing down his hand.“Are you okay?” she asked softly, concern evident in her tone.Marcus looked at her, his expression unreadable. After a brief silence, he gave a slow nod. “Yes, I’m fine,” he murmured. His voice was rough, as if the weight of his emotions had drained him completely.He took a step forward, intending to close the space between them.Then—A sharp, unmistakable crunch echoed through the room.Marcus winced, his entire body stiffening. His foot had landed directly on the shattered glass strewn across the floor from his earlier outburst. A sharp pain shot up his leg, but he barely reacted.Lilian’s eyes widened. “Marcus—”He groaned, feeling the sting deepen as he shifted his weight.Lilian instinctively moved toward him, her hands reaching out to steady him. But before she could get close, he raised a han

Hilary walked into the office, his heart pounding, his hands clammy. The weight of the situation pressed down on him like a storm cloud. Security had immediately stepped in, and within moments, they were escorting her away. The woman who had deceived them for so many years—Lily—was finally being removed from their lives.Marcus stood motionless, his jaw clenched so tightly it ached. His fists curled at his sides, his entire body rigid with suppressed rage. His mind reeled, struggling to process the truth that had just shattered everything he had ever believed.He had been deceived. Lied to. For years.His whole life had been shaped by a single moment—a memory that had led him down the wrong path, making him believe in something that wasn’t real. And because of that false belief, he had lost the most important person in his life.His wife.The reason he had been so overprotective of Lily all these years wasn’t just because he cared for her—it was because, as a child, he had nearly drow

Marcus returned to the office, his mind still racing from the events of the past few days. The moment he stepped inside, Hilary walked in as well, his usual composed expression in place. He held a tablet in his hand, ready for orders.“Sir.”Marcus barely spared him a glance before speaking. “Investigate the other guy—the one who refused to talk at first. I want to know everything about him and the woman he’s trying to protect.” His voice was sharp, his patience running thin.Hilary immediately nodded, his fingers already moving to jot down the details. “Understood, boss. I’ll get started on it right away.” He turned toward the door, preparing to leave.“Wait,” Marcus said, stopping him in his tracks.Hilary turned back, standing at attention. “Yes, sir?”Marcus hesitated for a brief moment, his fingers twitching slightly as he recalled something that had been gnawing at him. “I saw a scar on Lilian when she was taking care of me in the hospital… and I remember seeing the same scar on
