Married to my Ex-Husband (ENGLISH) Prologue
July 2012 Baclaran, Manila The rain was pouring heavily, but there's no sign of rush in Elaine's steps. Meanwhile, others were running and rushing to the nearest shelter to protect themselves from the rain. On the other hand, she didn't seem to bother as she took her way towards the Baclaran Church under the heavy downpour, taking only her backpack with her. She halted at the corner a few steps from the church, not caring that she was already soaking wet. She looked up in the sky, letting the rain drip on her face. Elaine could tell that the rain will not stop any time soon based on the sky's visible dark and thick clouds. She was unsure if the sky was sympathizing with her or was just plain mocking, just like the people around her. It must be the latter. She continued moving forward. Elaine was an illegitimate child. She grew up without her father and spent her whole life under her mother, Betina. Bettina

Right after reading the few sheets in the tabloid, Elaine ended up folding the paper and placed it over the piles of untouched booklets on the table. She picked up the other one from her side to tuck them all together. Suddenly, a particular headline caught her attention. Everything shown in both tabloid and national TV news was the same; crime, government, and economic issues, but this one appeared to be more intriguing than anything else. The forthcoming closure of the biggest cotton textile company in the country, the DM Textile. A textile company owned by De Marcos. It was the legacy that was left by Tan's late grandfather, Daniel De Marco after he passed away.At first, Elaine thought that the DM Textile's inheritance would be given to Sean De Marco, Tan’s twin brother. But he was busy acting as the Chairman of The Palace, and at the same time, he was also currently managing the Sean and Tan Teacaf with the help of their friend, Miguel. At the moment, the 35-

They all ended up in the police station after the incident."Yes, chief,"The investigator turned to face her, his eyes filled with doubts and questions. Elaine uncrossed her arms.

Tan's attention shifted to his front, pulling his eyes away from the desktop by the time the door swung open, revealing Dr Janine Crisostomo, the immunologist and the Hospital Director's only daughter.She marched her way directly to his spot. As soon as she reached him, she laid down a rectangular box on his desk and stared at him with a broad smile on her face."I spent almost an hour contemplating whether I should buy this for you or not. Since I haven't seen you wearing any single one that I gave you so far. This time, make sure you're going to wear this,"Tan smiled shortly. "Thank you." Even though he hadn't unboxed it yet, he knew it contained a necktie."Are you not going to ask me how the conference went?"Tan went back to his monitor.

Married to my Ex-Husband (ENGLISH) Chapter Six: The Warning
"NOBODY was fighting, Ma'am. How much alcohol have you had?"Elaine exhaled deeply. There's a hint of certainty and emphasis on the officer's voice as he said those words to her face. Even the two MMDA officers had the same testimony about it. She wanted to insist but decided not to especially when she saw a taunting curl on the officer's lips. Besides, there's no more energy left for her to argue.She found out that the owner of the sports car she'd bumped into was the officer himself.

One was the day Tan proposed to her.It was on the 14th of February year 2016. Right in front of the fast-food restaurant that she used to work at.She could hardly remember how she reacted or how she exactly said "Yes, I'll marry you!" But she could remember how nervous Tan was in vivid detail. The sincere emotions painted in his eyes while bending on his knees, holding a case in hand with an engagement ring in it.After almost four years, Tan was proposing again. But he was not kneeling this time around. Nor was he holding a ring. No sign of nervousness, unlike before. And most particularly, Tan was not there to promise her heaven and earth.
