Hilary believed that if Marcus and Lilian were on good terms, what happened today would never happen.He was also there when Marcus started treating Lilian badly, but he is the boss so there is nothing he can do about it.Lily walked towards Marcus office ignoring his assistant, but Hilary immediately moved and stood in front of the door.“I’m really sorry Miss, but Bøss is not in a good mood” Hilary said with an apologetic tone.Lily frowned, she did not believe that. She instead believed that maybe Marcus and a woman is inside the office that was why he ordered his assistant not to allow her in.“Do you know who I am?” Lily asked with a cold expression.Hilary nodded his head. “Yes yes” He answered.“Move away now. I don’t have time for all this” Lily said.Hilary sighed. “I really want to but -“The office door was suddenly opened, Marcus was standing there looking at them.“Marcus” Lily called like she has been wronged.“What is it?” Marcus leaned against the doorframe, his jaw te

It was 8pm on dot, Lilian started packing her things and arranged the desk before leaving. When she was done , she carried her bag and the car key, it was with her and she left her office.She got to the reception desk. The receptionist smiled when she saw her, “You are ready to go ?” She was surprised because everyone was working overtime.Lilian nodded. “Yes,” she said with a smile on her face. “Alright then, Miss Stephan, once I’m done I will drop the files on your desk before tomorrow” The receptionist said with a smile on her face.“Alright, thank you” Lilian said “Good night,” the receptionist said.“Good night” Lilian waved at her before she walked out of the company.Lilian drove home, the weight of the day pressing down on her like a thick blanket. Her mind drifted as she navigated the familiar streets, the hum of the engine barely registering.She felt the fatigue settling into her bones, each traffic light an unwelcome pause that made her wish she could close her eyes jus

Lilian started working on the files on her desk immediately she walked into her office. She wondered why Moses was not here yet but she did not really think too much of it.KnockSomeone knocked on the door, Lilian raised her head and looked at the door.“Come in” Lilian said in a bit loud tone.The door was pushed open and an employee walked in to the office.“Hello Miss Lilian” Jane said as she walked into the office, she was the one who was gossiping with the receptionist downstairs before.“Hello.” Lilian said as she put down her pen.“These are the files from the personnel department” She said.“You can drop it” “Can you really handle it? Because it is the CEO who works on these files” Jane asked like she was actually concerned but she was just mocking her.Lilian's eyebrow arched in disbelief. Is she really questioning me? “You can drop it” she replied, her voice steady but edged with irritation, signaling that she wouldn't tolerate any more condescension.Jane shivered when

Lilian finished eating and she stood up, she looked at the girls and saw the girl that came to deliver some files to her. Lilian raised an eyebrow when she saw her. No wonder she questioned her.She knew they want her to hear them that is why they came to sit down close to her. And they had no idea the relationship between she and Moses. Only few people knows and those are just the shareholders . Lilian walked out of the employees restaurant. She walked back to her office. She left the office early so she can pick up Matt from school this time instead of Moses.Lilian pulled into the school parking lot, her heart fluttering with anticipation. She watched as Matt's teacher hurried inside, the familiar routine bringing a smile to her face. ‘I can't wait to see his happy face’, she thought, feeling a wave of warmth wash over her as she imagined their afternoon together.Lilian got down from the car. Matt teacher, miss jasmine was shocked to see her instead of her brother. “Hello Matt

Moses drove them out of the house, they finally got a restaurant.Lilian got down from the car, Matt also got down to immediately, he followed Lilian into the restaurant while Moses was trying to look for a good place to park the car.The waiter immediately approached them when they walked into the restaurant.“Hello Miss, welcome to our restaurant, do you want to eat here or get a room instead?” He asked with a polite smile on his face.“Well…. “ Lilian said, she does not know what to do whether to eat at the lobby or a private room.“Who is this? Lilian!?” She heard someone called her name. Lilian turned her head and looked towards the voice, she was a bit shocked when she saw Aria, Marcus younger sister, Lily was standing beside her. Lilian's breath caught in her throat as she turned to see Aria. She quickly masked her surprise with a composed smile, knowing it was only a matter of time before their paths crossed again.Lilian turned away from Aria, refusing to let the provocatio

“It is obvious that she doesn't like you but you still care so much about her” Aria said, feeling her heart break at Lily's kindness.Lily smiled and shook her head. “It does not matter if she likes me or not. What matters is we should be good no matter what” Lily said gently.…Lilian looked at the table to see if what she ordered was enough.The waiter was standing not far away looking at her wondering if she wanted to pack the rest home, cause he did not believe that she would eat all the food on the table. Lilian raised her head and looked at the waiter. She beckoned for him to come, the waiter immediately walked towards her. He thought she wanted to ask for the rest to be packed away.“How much is the bill?” Lilian asked the waiter.The waiter looked at his iPad. “It is $55,000” He said, he looked at her and shook his head. She ordered so much food in one sitting? “Okay go and give it to her” Lilian said with a satisfied laugh and stood up.The waiter was confused when he saw h

“Yes miss” the waiter said again.Lily finally understood what Lilian did. No wonder Lilian accepted her words easily. Lily looked at the table, the wines were all open and she could not ask for the food or wine to be returned that she is not interested in buying anymore. Her reputation will be at risk besides the restaurant will not accept that either.Aria's heels clicked sharply against the polished floor as she approached Lily. The ambient hum of conversation from the nearby tables felt distant, as if they were in their own world now. Lily stood motionless, her gaze fixed on the half-eaten plates, the heavy scent of wine lingering in the air around her. Aria's footsteps slowed, sensing something wasn't quite right.“What is wrong?” Aria asked Lily.Lily's gaze drifted to the table, where the waiter packed up the untouched plates. The food was still steaming, a stark contrast to the stillness in her chest. She swallowed, trying to push down the knot that had formed in her throat.

The next day, Lilian woke up earlier than usual, determined to take Matt to school herself instead of relying on Moses. She had decided that today was a good day to handle things on her own. After a quick breakfast, she made sure Matt’s lunch was packed, tucking his sandwich and juice into his lunchbox carefully. When the time came, she grabbed the box and stepped outside, the cool morning air brushing against her skin.She walked to the car, setting the lunchbox on the back seat before closing the door with a soft click. Just as she was about to get into the driver’s seat, she heard the sound of footsteps approaching behind her. She turned to see Matt, his schoolbag slung over one shoulder, walking toward her.“Mom!” Matt called, his face lighting up as he came closer.Lilian smiled and opened the back door for him. “Get in the car, sweetheart,” she said, her voice warm but steady.Matt climbed into the back seat, his little hands gripping his lunchbox. Lilian gently closed the door

“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
