The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1233
After Renee left Hunt Enterprise, she wandered around for a long time on the street before returning to Carmine Pawnshop.When Margaret saw her, she was filled with both joy and worry. "Miss Ren, you're finally home! Please comfort Mr. Everheart… he's in a very bad mood." During the few days that Renee was away, many things happened to Carmine Pawnshop. Quinton, who was usually rather spirited, suddenly became strangely downcast. He locked himself in his room and neither spoke nor smiled, refusing to have any contact with anyone."Really? What a coincidence—I'm in a bad mood too. He's not the only victim in the world." Renee scoffed, sounding rather aloof and reproachful. As Quinton's sister, she felt that she did have to help him resolve this bitterness and hatred inside him, but when she thought of what he did to Joanne… She understood why they called him a demon. He was like a stranger to her now, and it made her heart ache.Margaret looked at Renee in surprise and asked worr

After the servant left, Renee quietly walked to the door and knocked on it. Sighing softly, she whispered, "Quinton." It was as if her voice held some kind of enchantment. Quinton, who was initially dispirited, instantly reacted. Quinton quickly opened the door and looked at Renee with bright eyes. "Renee, you're finally home! I would have gone mad if you took any longer."Quinton's voice was weak because he hadn't eaten or drank anything for a few days, and his face was full of stubble too. Although his mask hid more than half of his face, his downcast expression could still be seen.Renee frowned at him. "What's the matter with you? They said you locked yourself up in your room and haven't been eating or drinking." "Don't listen to their crap. I was just annoyed and looked forward to your return. I didn't care about anyone else." Quinton's lips curved into a grin."Is… Is that so?" Renee forced a smile onto her face. At first, she wanted to interrogate him, but she could not b

Quinton immediately panicked when he saw Renee's teary face, and grabbed her shoulders. "Renee, are you okay? Do you hate me for restoring this place? Stop crying. I'll make a call now and ask them to demolish it, and we can rebuild it the way you like. What do you think?" With a shake of her head, Renee wiped away her tears and hugged Quinton. "No, you did such a good job that I thought we had travelled back in time. It looks exactly like the Everheart Manor I grew up in. I'm only crying because I'm touched and recalled a lot of my childhood memories. How nice it would be if you weren't kidnapped back then and you grew up with me..."Renee confessed her inner thoughts to Quinton. She was indeed very touched; only family members could give one this kind of feeling. However, when she thought of how Quinton had done those cruel things, she felt conflicted."Silly girl, we can't change the past, but we have control over the present and future. We should live in the moment." Quinton pa

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" Quinton asked her hesitantly. He could tell that something was weighing on Renee's mind, and he could pretty much guess what it was. He didn't want to open Pandora's box, so he didn't ask her about it, but now it seemed like he could not ignore it any longer. He had to face the consequences of his actions."Ask me whatever you want to ask. I'll tell you everything honestly." Quinton stopped smiling and became serious too.Renee clenched her fists and said, "I want you to tell me about what happened in the past with Stefan. Are you really as innocent as you claim?""I never said that I was innocent. Every battle will have a winner and a loser. Stefan was capable but shameless when he defeated me back then. I have nothing to say about that. The only thing I can do is try to defeat him this time..." His eyes glittered, and he said shrewdly, "Like now. It's a great chance for us to defeat him since everyone is now on our side. We need
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1237
Renee's eyes grew wide as she retorted, "So, you want me to take your side? Does it mean that I can't stop you even if you want to kill people? That I have to allow you to take innocent lives?" "Isn't that what you should do?" Quinton grabbed Renee's shoulders, his eyes wild. "We're siblings with the same blood running in us. You're me, and I'm you; we're in the same boat. All I want to do is revive the Everheart family and take revenge for our deceased parents. Shouldn't you support me?" "I don't mind you wanting to revive the Everheart family, but there needs to be a limit. If we don't have principles, we'll be just like those villains who destroyed our parents. Such a bloodstained path of revenge would never make our parents happy if they knew.""Well, what do you want me to do then?" Quinton punched the balcony hard, and his knuckles started to bleed. "Are you aware of my past? If I was bound by limits, I would be long dead by now. I was able to crawl out of that demonic abyss

Of course, he suffered a lot living the way he did throughout the years."What if I say that Joanne... is still alive? What would you do?" Renee swallowed slightly and observed Quinton's expression carefully.Quinton turned to stare straight at Renee, and asked sharply, "Are you saying that Joanne is still alive?""No, I'm not. I'm just asking you about the possibility. What would you do if she's still alive?""I don't know." Quinton shook his head and smiled bitterly. "After all, she won't forgive me. I'd better...""What would you rather do?" Renee eagerly asked.However, Quinton stopped dwelling on it, and said cryptically, "It depends on whether she's alive or not.""She..." At first, Renee wanted to tell him that Joanne was still alive, but then she remembered Stefan's reminder and went silent.Quinton noticed the change in her expression and chuckled. "She's still alive, isn't she? But you see me as a wicked demon now, so you're worried I'll do something to her, right?"

Renee was curious when she heard someone walking up the stairs. When she saw the newcomer's face, she gaped slightly in surprise. "Haze, what... are you doing here?"She hadn't seen him ever since they had said goodbye back then. Now, she was tongue-tied and didn't know what to say."It's been a long time, Phoenix." Haze smiled at her, dressed casually as usual. With both hands in his pockets, he looked like the very picture of nonchalance. "I've been thinking about you and watching you from afar."Renee got goosebumps hearing that, and stuck her tongue out at him. "That sounds creepy, you know? People might think you're a stalker who's been having a crush on me for years." Quinton glared at Renee and scolded, "Renee, don't be rude. Mr. Baldwin is our important comrade. His family is very powerful and influential, and they're the only family that can fight against the Hunt family. If we want to defeat the Hunt family, we need the Baldwin family's support. Also, he's the reason I g
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1240
Renee frowned. "Quinton, the Baldwin family is powerful, and Haze is a very cunning man. If we cooperate with them, we'll definitely suffer a great loss." "How could you say that?" Quinton turned to Justin appreciatively. "Maybe you don't know this, but though the Baldwin family invests eighty percent, they only take twenty percent of the profit and let us have the remaining eighty percent. No one else would be willing to do that, so of course it's not a loss for us!""Umm..." Renee's confidence dwindled, and she couldn't help but whisper to Haze, "Did you really spend that much?"Haze grinned and whispered back, "Of course! My family's willing to go that far as long as you marry me." Renee was speechless. She looked around, unsure of what to do. It was already hard enough to ask Quinton to cooperate with Stefan, but now the Baldwin family had appeared and promised them a great profit. Her dream of the Everhearts cooperating with the Hunts seemed impossible at this point. Aft

Then, Stefan calmly placed the crab leg on the plate in front of Leia. Leia was flabbergasted. She did not dare to move. She wondered what he was doing, and if he wanted to sacrifice her."Why aren't you eating it?" Stefan looked at Leia, sounding composed. Yet, he was full of the dominance that could burn anyone.Leia swallowed and gnashed her teeth, asking Stefan, "How could you peel the crab for me? Isn't it inappropriate?" She was the most cowardly person. Usually, she looked fierce and indignant as if she wanted to punish Stefan severely. But when he came to her and looked at her, she would be very frightened. She would not dare to do anything."Why not? Someone said women shouldn't peel the prawns or crabs themselves. I'm just being a gentleman. It's nothing serious. It's just peeling the crab!" Stefan said. It was rare to see him speak so much. It was incompatible with his contradictory identity. However, it was clear that he was mocking Justin and saying how ridiculo
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2428
Both Stefan and Justin mocked each other, which made the atmosphere more awkward. Although Liam and Leia were simply watching the fun, they felt awkward, too. It made them restless.Renee was having a hard time, too. She smacked the table and said to Stefan and Justin, "You'd better stop eating. Go out and fight. The food got cold because of your endless fight."When she spoke, she sounded like a class teacher with absolute authority. Although both Stefan and Justin were dissatisfied, they fell silent and did not dare to say more. Everyone started enjoying the great food, but said nothing. It seemed a little gloomy.Renee was about to get a prawn, but Justin had already peeled it nicely for her. He dipped it in some sauce and put it in Renee's bowl. "I know you love prawns the best. I've peeled it for you. Of course, women can't peel the prawns themselves.""Oh, Mr. Baldwin. You're considerate. You're a role model among the men. Anyone who marries you will be very happy!" Le

Justin smiled and described the children's experiences, acting like a stepfather. When he talked about the children, he made it sound like they were his biological children. Stefan didn't look so good. He felt that the glass of wine was getting bitter."Well, I'm sure kids will find everything new and exciting when they go to a new place. But they'll get bored with it when time passes. They'll love their real home better." Stefan had wanted to act relaxed and casual, but he could not stop himself from refuting when he heard Justin's provocative words. "Mm?" Leia sat beside Liam and leaned against his arm, and whispered, "What are they doing? This is weird. Are they going to fight?""It's just a competition between men. They won't get into a fight." Liam kept eating and watching the fun. He merely found it amusing. As expected, Renee was greatly admired. Although she remained silent, she would always be in the limelight. Liam was amused to see people like Stefan or Justin

"How dare you!"Stefan's words instantly made Leia speechless. She had wanted to rebuke him, but he snatched the chance from her and struck her dumb.In short, he was an utter scumbag.After a moment, Leia finally managed to comment, "How shameless!" Justin had kept silent all the while. He looked at Stefan with a scrutinizing and mocking gaze. "Mr. Hunt, I admire your honesty and self-awareness. If that's the case, let's stop being reserved and have fun together!""Yes, let's have fun together. I'm shameless, too!" Liam joined in the effort to mock Stefan. He swayed his glass of wine and faked a smile. "I've known her a long time, so of course I know what shameless things Mr. Hunt has done. I think I'd better grab this chance to tell you all of them since everyone is here today."Standing at the door, Renee was worried that Liam might say more indecent things. She hurriedly stopped him. "Pipe down, Liam!" "Got it." Liam shrugged helplessly but obeyed her.Although he yea

"Do you want to leave?" Stefan saw Renee. He was calm, indifferent, and distant. His behavior stung Renee. Renee could easily recall their lovey-dovey memories. They had both risked their lives for each other and vowed to be together forever. They had two children, too. Yet, they ended up as strangers.Although Renee was heartbroken, she became competitive. She smoothed her hair and said in a similarly cold manner, "I'm going to the washroom." "Okay." Stefan did not have anything to say. He nodded and walked past Renee before heading to the dining table. "Hmph! I didn't expect you to come so boldly," Quinton sneered.At the sight of Stefan, Quinton subconsciously clenched his fists, acting like he was about to fight Stefan. On the surface, he wouldn't act aggressively because he knew Renee would stop him. "It's not easy for the few great families to get together. It's good and meaningful for us. If I refused to come, it would make me seem heartless."Stefan kept his co

Having said that, Renee lowered her head, about to leave. She didn't even have the time to bother about Adie and Abby, and told Quinton to take them home later. Her strange behavior filled Quinton with displeasure. He blocked Renee and said solemnly, "Are you afraid? Do you want to run away? People might think that you're guilty and have cheated on your husband!""No, I'm not!" Renee refuted him loudly, then explained seriously, "I'm busy. I need to handle something right away. Plus, I'm not guilty. I did nothing wrong. There's no reason for me to feel guilty." Quinton went straight to the point. "What are you afraid of since you know you're not guilty? Why do you want to run away? He should be afraid instead!""I told you. I'm not afraid of him. I'm just…" "What?" Quinton crossed his arms and looked at Renee coldly. He wanted to get to the bottom of it.Renee came up with a ridiculous yet normal excuse. "I… I recalled that the dessert shop that I want to head to is about to

Jovan called Stefan to sound the latter out. Anyway, it would be convenient for Stefan to rush over since they were both at the same spot. "I'll be right there," Stefan said. Then, he hung up.For a moment, silence washed over everyone, as if something terrible was about to happen.After taking in the new information, Leia said indignantly, "What's going on? Why does he want to come? Isn't he too shameless? How dare he come?" Although everything wasn't discussed openly, everyone knew why Stefan and Renee broke up all of a sudden, despite how lovey-dovey they were. The reason was that Stefan had cheated on Renee.Even if the adultery was faked, it was still the cause of their breakup. If Stefan were shameful or guilty, he wouldn't have agreed to come. He was going to face Renee there with their friends and family around. Certainly, it was embarrassing. "Hmph! Why not? He impersonated me, seized my business, and snatched away my woman. Plus, he led a steady life, got married
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2422
Jovan's words made the atmosphere quiet and bizarre. "Are you out of your mind, Jovan? It's already very annoying to have someone like you here. Do you have to get another annoying guy?" Leia frowned, crossing her arms. She kept scolding him.Initially, the atmosphere was considered harmonious. It was still considered fine even if there was an annoying person like Jovan. Unexpectedly, he wanted to call another, more terrible person to come here. Things would certainly go wrong. "Ms. Osborne, you're famous for talking harshly, too. You're just like me. I love it." However, Jovan was not mad at all. He grinned while waiting for Stefan to answer the call. Generally, Stefan would not answer Jovan's call. Surprisingly, he picked it up that time."What's the matter?" Jovan purposely put it on speaker mode. Stefan sounded aloof and emotionless.Jovan sounded wicked as he calmly asked Stefan, "Do you want to join a gathering, Stefan?""I'm going to hang up if you don't say anythi
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2421
In the past, Jovan had always regarded Stefan as a coward. Stefan couldn't forget about Renee, but he kept pushing Renee to another man. It seemed like Justin was more responsible, considerate, and gentle. Of course, Renee would lead a very happy, steady, and comfortable life with such a man. At the very least, Jovan felt that he could not be that meticulous and considerate. He would only drive Renee mad just to get her attention. "Hmph! Are you trying to humiliate me or yourself?" Justin didn't find that a compliment. Instead, it sounded like smockery. Jovan made it sound like Justin was a nice guy, but would not be picked by Renee. Usually, people like that had to suffer and would not end up well."I'm praising you." Jovan was helpless because of his reputation as the villain. Although he had said a lot of annoying things, he did want to compliment Justin. His love was probably as deep as Justin's, but his and Stefan's ways of loving Renee were much inferior to Justin's.
