Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Chapter 2214

After her conversation with Carol, Athena found an unremarkable corner and sat down, hoping to stay out of the spotlight.

Tyler had already been dragged off by a group of friends to join in a round of drinks. Before he left, he'd warned her repeatedly not to wander off on her own.

Athena lingered on the sofa for a while before she spotted Maggie making her way over, flanked by a few women.

Maggie pretended not to notice her, but Athena recognized the women at her side.

One of them was Lily Wilson. She'd been Maggie's shadow since high school- Athena was surprised to see they were still in touch after all these years, and apparently closer than ever.

Lily hadn't heard the news about Athena and Tyler getting married, so when her gaze landed on Athena, her face registered pure shock.

"Oh my God, Maggie, look who it is! Isn't that Athena, the most popular girl from our high school?"

Lily made a beeline for her, stopping right in front of Athena with an air of superiority.

"Athena, what are you doing here? Don't tell me you're applying for a job as a waitress."

Given what Athena was wearing, there was no way anyone would mistake her for a staff member. Lily was clearly just being cruel.

Athena didn't react, which only seemed to incense Lily further. After all, this was the same Athena she used to bully relentlessly in high school-she could still remember Athena on her knees, begging them to stop. A smirk curled on Lily's lips as she tipped the contents of her glass over Athena's head.

Caught off guard, Athena didn't manage to dodge. Liquor dripped from her hair. "Whoops! Sorry, must've lost my grip," Lily said, feigning innocence.
