Pursuing My EX Wife Fifteen
“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

CEO rave now expression lit up when he saw this. He smiled, because he knew that she had failed even before she starts.“That is a deal then” He said with a smile.“Lilian” Nicole called, with a worried expression on his face.Lilian smiled at him reassuringly.Marcus looked at them, the anger in his eyes intensified because he sees it as them flirting with each other.Lilian walked up to Marcus with a glass of wine in her hand.She smiled sweetly. “Please have a drink with me,” Lilian said.Marcus looked at her wondering if she would really forgive him, maybe that is why she was offering him a glass of wine.“Do you finally come back to your senses?” Marcus asked in a low tone. Lilian rolled her eyes when she heard this. “Are you drinking or not?” She asked him.Marcus wrapped his hands around her waist and pulled her closer to his chest. Her hot breath fanned his face and he gulped.Marcus stiffened slightly and a boiling hot blood surged within him.He actually got a hard on?Lil

Lilian turned and saw Nicole standing a bit far away from them.“Get lost” Marcus said to Nicole with a cold expression.Nicole was intimidated but he did not leave just like that because he felt what will Lilian think about him if he acted just like a coward.“You are holding a woman against her will, I’m sure your fiancée will not be happy seeing that her fiancé is like this right?” He asked him with a smile on his face.This made Marcus frowned when he heard this. And his hand loosened on Lilian a bit.Lilian raised an eyebrow when she saw this. So he is so scared of Lily? She thought.Lilian jerked her shoulder, breaking free from Marcus's grip, and stepped toward Nicole, a determined glint in her eye.Marcus wanted to chase after her but he is still a bit cautious because there might be a reporter around or a camera.As Lilian and Nicole stepped out of the restroom, a sense of relief washed over her. She turned to him, her smile brightening the dim corridor, grateful for his supp

The next day when Marcus and his assistant arrived, the company was a bit disorganized and frenzy which was a bit surprising because it rarely happens.“What is wrong?” Marcus asked his employees with a frown on his face.“The company has been hacked. I fear that some important documents will get stolen” The secretary immediately answered.Marcus's heart raced, and his breath caught in his throat. He stared at the secretary, disbelief clouding his mind as he processed her words. The office around him blurred, the hum of chaos fading as he grappled with the reality of the breach. “What? How did that happen?” He asked.The secretary was also clueless. She had no idea what happened either. “I don’t really know,” She answered with a helpless expression.Marcus frowned. “Have you called the company hackers to check it?” He asked her.The secretary nodded. “They are already in the office now,” She answered.Marcus frowned. “Lead the way,” He said to her.The secretary nodded and turned to w

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

The room was silent except for the steady hum of the overhead light.Marcus stood still, his cold gaze fixed on the two men bound to the metal chairs in the center of the dimly lit room. They had been sitting there for hours, their wrists and ankles tightly restrained, their expressions shifting between fear and forced bravado.Marcus let the silence stretch, letting them feel the weight of what was coming.Then, without a word, he reached over and pressed a button.The reaction was immediate.A deafening scream tore through the air as the two men convulsed in their chairs. Their bodies jerked violently, their muscles spasming under the unbearable heat surging through the metal beneath them.The first man thrashed against his restraints, his voice hoarse with agony. “PLEASE! STOP! I’LL CONFESS—AHHHH!” His head jerked back as another wave of pain shot through him. “I’LL TALK—I’LL TALK!”The second man clenched his jaw, sweat dripping down his face. He tried to suppress his reaction, bu

The moment they stepped outside, the sound of tires rolling over gravel drew their attention. Hilary’s car pulled in smoothly, its headlights cutting through the dim evening light.As soon as the car came to a halt, Hilary stepped out, accompanied by two other men dressed in dark suits. Without hesitation, they walked toward Marcus and Moses, stopping a few feet away. The three men bowed their heads slightly in acknowledgment, their expressions unreadable.Marcus didn’t waste time. His voice was firm, his authority unmistakable. “Take them away,” he ordered, motioning toward the two captives.Hilary nodded. Without hesitation, the two men in suits grabbed hold of the prisoners, dragging them away without a word. The captives struggled weakly, but it was pointless. Their fate was no longer in their hands.As the car doors shut, Marcus watched in silence as Hilary and his men drove off, disappearing into the night. He exhaled slowly, then turned to face Moses.“I’ll update you,” he said

Marcus was discharged from the hospital after spending a week recovering. The moment he was cleared to leave, he felt a strong urge to return to his normal routine, though something in his gut told him that things were far from over.The following day, Lilian resumed work, slipping seamlessly back into her responsibilities as if nothing had happened. Despite her composed exterior, Marcus knew she was still shaken. He had seen it in her eyes—the lingering fear, the occasional distracted look. He made a mental note to check in on her later.That morning, as he sat in his office, his assistant, Hilary, walked in with a troubled expression.“Sir,” Hilary began hesitantly, “I just returned from the station, but the officers refused to release the men.”Marcus frowned. “Why?”“They said they need Mr. Moses’ signature before they can release them into my custody,” Hilary explained.Marcus exhaled sharply, leaning back in his chair. “Alright, I’ll call him.”Hilary nodded and bowed slightly b

This made Marcus smile. “Okay.”Lilian turned her back to him while he took his bath, making sure not to peek. She heard the sound of water splashing as he moved under the shower, the faint scent of soap filling the air. She sat on the edge of the bed, waiting, but the silence between them made time stretch unbearably slow.After about fifteen minutes, Marcus finally spoke. “I’m done.”Lilian turned around and glanced at him. She tried to keep her gaze on his face, but her eyes betrayed her, flickering downward for a split second. Quickly, she walked toward him and picked up a towel, her fingers working mechanically as she helped him wash his back.Marcus let out a soft sigh and closed his eyes, savoring the moment of peace. He rarely had time to relax, and despite the situation, this felt oddly comforting. Lilian’s hands were gentle, her touch light yet firm as she worked.Just as she finished, Marcus reached for the shower knob and twisted it, sending a rush of water pouring down hi

“I want to stay with him until he fully recovers,” Lilian said firmly.Noah frowned, his jaw tightening. “He has his assistant with him. He doesn’t need your help,” he said immediately, his voice laced with disapproval.Lilian hesitated, her brother’s words making sense. She glanced at Marcus, her fingers instinctively clenching the fabric of her dress.Marcus, sensing her hesitation, quickly interjected, “My assistant is busy handling work at the company since I won’t be able to go in for now.” His voice was calm but insistent, cutting off Lilian’s chance to reconsider.Lilian sighed and sat back down. He was right. He wouldn’t be able to handle company affairs for the next few days, and if his assistant was occupied, someone needed to be there for him.Noah’s eyes narrowed at Marcus. He understood exactly what he was trying to do—keeping Lilian by his side. And while Noah wanted to stop him, he knew Lilian had already made up her mind. He couldn’t change it, no matter what he said.
