Chapter 150

Author: Mizuki Sei
Renee noticed that the iron fence had been knocked down, and in one spot, the tall grass had been trodden on, with footprints in the wet mud.

It was obvious that someone had come to the house before. The footprints, however, indicated that they went in but never came out.

There was a high possibility that the person was still inside!

Behind her, the man from the moving company put down her baggage and wiped his sweat nervously. "Miss, I’ve put all your stuff here. I’m not going in there. A word of advice, get out of here as soon as possible when you can."

Renee turned around to look at the man and asked worriedly, "Do you know what’s wrong with the house? Everyone seems to be saying there’s something wrong with it."

The man gulped nervously and stole a glance at the house. “Haven’t you heard? The couple who owned the house ended their lives there. Their ghosts are trapped there, and the house has become haunted!”

"I know the owners passed away, but I believe it's nothing more tha

    A handsome man in a black suit walked down from the second floor."Haze!" Renee’s eyes widened in surprise.He had disappeared after letting her go when he didn't reveal her identity as Phoenix in front of Stefan the last time.She thought he'd returned to Aplen.His appearance made her assume he must harbor a hidden motive for suddenly appearing in her house and helping her clean."Judging from the disappointed look on your face, I guess I'm unwelcome?"He walked to the middle of the stairs and looked down at Renee. His smile had a sense of wickedness to it. "I’ve been busy since the afternoon. I’m so tired that I feel like my back will break. If anything happens to me, you're the one responsible.""Ahem!" Renee shuddered from embarrassment. She never thought that the intelligent hacker would be this flirtatious. "Stop your gloating and get down here!"Liam glared at Haze and stated sternly. "There’s no way you’ll do all these without a price. If my sister didn’t want you he

    The three of them looked confused as they opened their phones.Then, Leia began to scream."Oh my god! I can’t believe this. Are Ren and Stefan trending on Twitter now?"At the same time, both Renee and Liam stared at their phones as they were shocked by the news.Most of the topics trending were about Stefan and Renee.[Oh my! It’s a video of Mr. Hunt begging his ex-wife, trying to win her back!][How did he become a simp!][If a CEO can become a simp, why can't ordinary guys become one?][This is Mr. Hunt's first step in his attempt to win back his wife.]Every item she clicked on had a video of Stefan tightly clutching Renee and refusing to let her go. It was sweet but humorous, and it was really an interesting video!Netizens began a heated discussion and even made funny edits to the video. As a result, the video remained at the top of the trending searches."Hahahahahaha!" After a long silence, Liam and Leia eventually burst out laughing."Boss, is this video real or

    That night, Liam and the rest left Everheart Manor reluctantly under Renee’s request.Before leaving, Leia held on to Renee’s hand and asked worriedly, “Are you sure you’re okay living alone in the huge manor? I heard that there are ghosts at night. Aren’t you scared?”“Of course, I’m not. This is my house. Even if there are ghosts around, they’re my family, so they won’t hurt me,” Renee said with a smile.They only left after getting her affirmation.After all, ghosts were not as terrifying as the terrible people Renee had previously encountered!After the three of them left, the temporarily vibrant home became silent, with the property's moist odor permeating the surroundings as though confirming nobody had been here for years. However, Renee was unbothered by it.She started cleaning the dishes while humming a tune to herself. She then filled the vase with water and placed the sunflowers inside before setting them next to her bed.Although the manor looked decayed from the

    “Ms. Ren, is that you?’As it got closer to Renee, the gruff voice became a little more excited.Renee was scared to death. She waved her hands around and shouted, “Go away! Don’t make me summon a priest to exorcise you!”“Don’t be scared. Ms. Ren, it’s me. Your favorite nanny, Margaret.”The skinny ‘ghost’ pulled Renee’s wrist with one hand and pushed away the hair with the other to reveal her pale face.“Margaret?”Renee instantly quieted down and carefully opened her eyes.After taking a good look at the ‘ghost’, she couldn’t believe her own eyes.“Margaret, how? Didn’t you…”Margaret was Everheart Manor’s housekeeper and Renee's nanny.Renee was closer to Margaret than she was to her mother on some levels.Since the Everheart family went bankrupt and Renee’s parents ended their life, Margaret had been guarding the house. In the end, Margaret was rumored to be beaten to death and buried.That was what Renee heard after marrying into the Hunt family.By the time she got

    “Back then, Mr. and Mrs. Everheart passed away. Even Master Everheart left the world soon after. Meanwhile, you married into the Hunt family. Everheart Manor became empty, and many people had their eyes on it. They made away with everything they could. They'd even move the floor if they could.”“I fought and guarded this place for you but got hurt. Oftentimes, before my wound could heal, new ones would appear. The last time I met a couple of vicious ones who beat me till I passed out. They dragged me to the graveyard and buried me.”Margaret’s words shocked Renee. She clenched her fists tightly in anger. “Margaret, you’ve suffered so much. Don’t worry. I will avenge you. I will find every single person who hurt you!”“Ms. Ren, don’t be angry. All my suffering is worth it, now that I see you.”The two women couldn’t help but hug each other and cry. Through the shower of tears, they released all the suffering they had endured over the past four years.“How did you escape?” Renee wip

    Margaret then went to the basement to fetch the letter she had been keeping with utmost care for four whole years in the old box. "Ms. Ren, this letter was given to me by Mrs. Everheart just before she died. But it’s very strange, she said that I should never show you if your marriage is happy, but if you get divorced, then I should pass it to you…"Margaret solemnly handed the letter sealed in the envelope to Renee. She looked rather sad when she did so. Mrs. Everheart's anguish and desperation before she committed suicide were still fresh in her mind.The only person Mrs. Everheart was reluctant to let go of was Renee. She must have hoped that she could have a happy marriage with Master Hunt, but who would have expected that it would last only four years before it fell apart…Renee looked down at "My Dear Ren" written on the envelope. It was her mother’s handwriting which no one could imitate. Tears welled up in her eyes, blurring her vision.Four years ago, she was in the labo

    Margaret’s random guessing threw Renee into deep thoughts.She frowned. She examined the letter repeatedly and remained silent for a long time.Margaret realized that she must have said too much. She quickly covered her mouth and said hurriedly, "What I have said... Don’t take it to heart. Why would the Hunts do that? If they were really the ones who harmed the Everhearts, why would they let you marry Mr. Hunt?""You’re right. But Dad and Mom wanted me to read this letter only if I got a divorce and emphasized that I must not blame the Hunts. So, there must be some secrets about this matter, and it must be related to the Hunts."Renee narrowed her eyes and roughly understood the entire picture. She said, "Although the Hunts might not necessarily be the ones who harmed the Everhearts, they must know something. Moreover, the people behind the fall of the Everhearts should be very influential. Otherwise, Grandpa, Dad, and Mom would not repeatedly tell me not to take revenge or force m

    Renee hurried over upon hearing Margaret and saw a green carved jade lying in the deep hole. She picked up the jade and brushed away the dirt to examine it more carefully.The jade was bright green and translucent. There was no trace of impurities, and it was cool to touch. Judging from the exquisite carvings on the gemstone, she knew immediately it was a priceless antique.Margaret stared at the ornament in confusion. "This is strange. Since when was such valuable jade buried in the backyard? Hasn’t anyone discovered this before? Could it be that someone sneaked in and buried this here after the fall of the Everheart family?"Renee frowned as she tried to figure out an answer, and that was when her eyes were drawn to the pattern carved on the jade.She had a feeling that she had seen this pattern before."I don’t think so."Margaret carefully recalled the past. "I’ve been guarding this house diligently since the incident. It’s impossible that anyone got in. Even if someone took

    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

  • The Untouchable Ex-Wife   Chapter 2426

    "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

    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

    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.

    "That's unnecessary." Justin stood in front of Renee, his face cold. He said firmly, "She's unwell and can't have wine." "Is she unwell? I didn't see that." Jovan sized Renee up before he sized Justin up. Then, he sneered, "And who are you to her? You can't stop her from having wine.""It's none of your business who I am to her. I said she can't have wine." Justin always kept peace with others, but at that moment, he was dominant. He didn't always want to control Renee, but she had drunk a lot of wine that day. It might have hurt her belly. Hence, he felt it better for her to abstain from wine lately. However, Jovan was unaware of that affair. He simply found Justin purposely showing his ownership over Renee, which disgusted him."Waiter, get her a glass of milk. She only wants that," Justin instructed a waiter, showing his consideration for Renee. "It's okay. I can have a little wine. Plus, I'm rather good at drinking. It's not easy for everyone to get together tonight. I do

    They danced for around ten minutes. Renee danced to the song heartily. Her initial gloomy mood also improved.Renee drank some water and took a few deep breaths. Then, she sincerely praised Leia, "Alright. Your welcome ceremony is bizarre, but it helped relieve my stress. I like it very much!"She could tell that Leia had painstakingly prepared that gift for her. After all, it was not easy to ask the Zambawi people from primitive tribes to sing an English song. "I'm glad you like it. I did this because I wanted you to relax and stop taking things seriously. You need to stop being so hard on yourself and get rid of all the pressure!" Leia said honestly. The Zambawi hand-drum dance came with the charms of a primitive dance. Its goal was to set people free. Of course, it was suitable for Renee to relieve her stress."Yeah, your stress is relieved. From now on, you'll start afresh. This is for you. I'm sure it'll be one of your happy memories." Liam handed the previous Polaroid to
