I could feel Lila tense under my arm as the man closed the distance between us.His eyes were dark—no, light blue, but there was darkness in them. He had tattoos all over his body, including his bald head, Making him appear scary.He stood there for a moment, scanning me, as if trying to gauge whether I was a threat or just another random guy he could handle easily.“Who’s this guy?” he asked again, his tone laced with suspicion.“Just a friend,” Lila replied, her voice shaky. It was clear this man made her anxious.I could feel her pulse racing, and I knew I had to keep things cool. “Yeah, we just met, actually,” I said, forcing a relaxed smile. “She has great taste in jewelry.”The man's gaze flicked between us, skepticism etched on his face. “Is that so?” he replied, crossing his arms. “You think you know her well enough to be hanging your arm around her like that?” the man said.“But she isn't complaining," I said, shrugging casually. “No harm in that, right?”Lila shot me a grat

I parked the Lamborghini in front of Marcus's apartment, the engine humming softly as I switched it off. As I stepped out of the car, I noticed Marcus leaning against the wall, arms crossed, waiting for us.“Ethan! You did it!” he exclaimed, a proud grin lighting up his face. “You didn’t even fail on your first mission. Bravo ” He pushed off the wall to meet me.“Thanks, Marcus. It was a bit tense, but I got through it,” I replied, trying to sound relaxed, even though my heart was still racing. Who knew it would end so smoothly, especially after that guy showed up?“It was a bit complicated right?” Josh said with a light chuckle.“Yeah, I was scared at first,” I said turning to Marcus. “But like you said, I used my body language to mask my emotions, and that was why if went smoothly,” I added, and they both nodded in agreement.“Sure, you handled that guy really well. I’m proud of you. But remember to keep your focus on the mission. There’s still a lot at stake,” he said, clapping me

“Who is she?” Lila asked with a frown, her tone tinged with curiosity and concern.“Sh—she’s…” I hesitated, but then decided to play it cool. “Just someone irrelevant,” I said.I turned to Lila, forcing out a smile. “Let’s go.” I said, holding her hands as we followed the manager, leaving Nora behind. Although I could feel Nora’s gaze on me. I was certain she didn’t see this coming.NORA’S POV.I can’t believe this, No! This can’t be true! Adrian can’t be right.Ethan? How could it be him?

NORA’S MESSAGE."ETHAN? IS THIS REALLY YOU? YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE BROKE! I WAS SURE YOU LEFT WITH NOTHING, WHY DO YOU LOOK SO DIFFERENT? HOW DID YOU GET SO RICH? AND WHO IS THAT LADY WITH YOU. I NEED ANSWERS. CAN WE MEET AND TALK?"I felt a surge of annoyance as I read through the text. She had no right to intrude on my life, she lost that right already.“YOU DONT DESERVE ANY EXPLANATION,” I typed back, but immediately cleared the text. She didn’t deserve my response either.I took a deep breath, forcing myself to focus on Lila, who sat across from me, oblivious to the Anger brewing in my mind.“As we were saying,” I said with a smile, her eyes meeting mine as she began to speak again.I wouldn’t let that bitch ruin my night, not to talk of my plans. ———As we finished our meal. I tried to engage Lila in more conversations, but my thoughts kept drifting back to Nora’s text message. It was best I called it a night, at least, I had some meaningful information.

I frowned, taken aback. “Excuse me? You’re my ex-wife. You divorced me months ago. What do you mean you have rights to my properties?”Nora's expression hardened, and she stepped closer, her voice low. “You really don’t understand, do you? The divorce wasn’t real. It was just a way to get you out of the house.”I blinked, trying to process her words. “What are you saying?”She took a deep breath, her eyes locking on mine. “We’re still legally married, Ethan. I never filed the final papers. I just wanted you gone.”A rush of confusion and anger surged through me, but I tried to hold it in. “You truly are shameless to stand in front of me and rumble this rubbish. Well, married or not, you have no rights to a dime. And trust me, you can try all you want; it’s going to be entertaining watching you fail. Gold digger,” I said, and with that, I turned to leave.How foolish of her to think she could threaten me with my wealth. How naive of her to believe she could still control me like she us

Ex-husband's Sweetest Revenge. Chapter one; intimidated.
I knocked on my wife’s door, waiting for her to give me permission to come in. But I didn’t hear her voice. I know, husbands and wives are meant to share a room and a bed, but that isn’t the case for Nora and me. We’ve been married for four years, but this is where our marriage has ended up. Four years ago, everything was different. I can vividly remember the last day of college when Nora approached me, confessing her feelings for me, which left me stunned because she was a wealthy girl from an opulent background. Compared to me, I was just a penniless orphan with nothing to offer her. As our relationship grew, her family began to despise me for being poor and lacking prospects. Initially, Nora stood by me, but the pressure on her became unbearable. And Eventually, she broke down. Things began to take a turn as every day became a reminder of how useless and worthless I was to her. I still didn’t give up. I tried countless businesses, determined to prove I could be a better man

LILA.
"Yes, that's our Target! Go in now!" Marcus ordered....I took a deep breath, feeling a bit nervous. “Alright, let’s move,” I said, pushing the door open and stepping outsideJosh stepped out next, following closely behind me, his posture that of confidence and focus. It kind of made me feel less nervous. As we approached the entrance of the jewelry store, My eyes scanned the room, landing on the woman in the red dress; Lila. who was now inside. She was focused, checking out the display cases with a casual type of elegance that made her stand out even more.“Wish me luck,” I whispered to Josh as we entered the store. We moved to a spot near the entrance, pretending to look at the nearby displays as I stole glances at Lila, who was now examining a diamond necklace. She was every bit as striking as Marcus had described. Ethan, focus!“Let’s try to get a closer look,” Josh suggested, his voice barely above a whisper. I nodded in agreement as we edged closer, carefully, not wanting
The Jewelry Store.
I stepped into Marcus's office, Josh following closely behind me. The air was filled with cigarette smoke as Marcus sat back in his chair, legs crossed. I watched him take a long drag before exhaling slowly, the smoke curling around him.“You said you wanted to see both of us?” Josh asked, his brow furrowed in concern.Marcus nodded, gesturing for us to take a seat. As we settled in, he quenched the cigarette in an ashtray and opened his laptop, turning the screen toward us.“Our Surveillance captured someone we suspect to be Mr. Barnes's daughter,” he said, his tone serious.I frowned. “Who is Mr. Barnes? And what are we supposed to do with his daughter?” I asked curiously.“Mr. Barnes is a partner of Mr. Hannel, the man who killed your father." Josh explained." Yes. And we need you both to spy on her.” Marcus continued.“Spy on her? We’re not even prepared,” I replied, glancing at Josh, who looked calmer than I expected.Marcus clicked a few buttons, and the screen displayed a m
