The dark figure was about to pounce on Renee when Stefan dashed out from a corner and grabbed Renee's wrist. "Let's go!""What are you doing here?" Renee looked up in surprise, but let Stefan pull her to her feet. They quickly ran towards the basement, and the light grew dimmer. Luckily, they were fast, and the figure couldn't go past the lobby. When they ran downstairs, the dark figure stopped chasing them."I'm exhausted! Let me rest for a bit." Renee gasped, shaking off Stefan's hand as she bent over with her hands on her knees. She kept taking in deep breaths. "Take this." Once Renee had calmed down, Stefan quietly handed a drink to her. Renee took the drink and immediately gulped it down, then looked at the cup in her hand. "Wait… Where did you get this drink? It isn't poisoned, is it?" She looked up and asked Stefan suspiciously. "I bought it from the vending machine just now, how could it be poisoned?" Stefan scoffed in disbelief. While the others were stuck in the net,

"Boyfriend..." Stefan stood up. The dim light in the basement made it hard to see his expression, but his stiff figure filled Renee with coldness. He slid his hands into his pockets and asked Renee calmly, "Are you being serious?""I'm always serious because I'm not like certain people. I've always been serious and loyal in my love life—I have no intention of playing with people's hearts. I don't believe in giving people false hope," Renee said critically to Stefan's back."Hmph!" Stefan chuckled bitterly. "I didn't expect you to think so badly of me...""I wasn't talking about you, but you admitted it." Renee didn't want to argue with him, she had just been telling the truth. She felt that there was no right or wrong to how their relationship ended, and she didn't want to let it affect her. She thought it best to just regard him as a stranger who was once her most loved person; She would not let him have the luxury of her feelings. However, she was still human, and she couldn't con

Renee felt unspeakable satisfaction when she heard the envy in Stefan's voice. She lifted her head high and said, "Maybe I don't quite understand what soulmates are, but I know very well what resentment in a relationship means. I want nothing but happiness now, so I'll be with people who make me happy and avoid those who bring me pain.""So, you're saying that Justin can make you happy?" Stefan slowly approached Renee, his expression blank. "I'm curious what kind of happiness he can bring you."Renee stepped back and frowned when her back hit the wall. "That's none of your business, and I'm not obligated to tell you either.""Yes, you're not, but I have the right to ask, don't I?" Stefan caged her against the wall, gripping her wrist to pull her closer. "After all, you're the mother of my kids, so it's natural to be concerned about your life. I need to make sure you're not faking it, because my kids will only be happy if you are.""You're out of your mind! That's unreasonable!" Ren

Others might misunderstand Stefan, but he knew very well that Renee was the only woman he had been with. "What did you say?" Renee's voice was louder than his, so she hadn't heard him.Stefan took a deep breath and shook his head sadly. "Nothing... I just hope that nobody else touches your hands, lips, and body." Unfortunately, he couldn't stop himself from being possessive.Renee was speechless. She had no idea about Stefan's struggles, and found his words ridiculous. "Stefan, don't flatter yourself. You abandoned me and your kids, and now when I'm finally ready to start again, you want me to avoid all men? Do you think you're a king? You can't just send someone away and expect them to keep waiting for you! I never expected such a ridiculous statement from you!" When she was his wife back then, she didn't mind his possessiveness, but they were separated now. Saying something like that was too shameless!"I'm sorry," Stefan said miserably, "I did lose control of myself. It's my fa

Hence, they temporarily forgot about their resentment and focused on clearing the levels. They were currently in the hospital's basement, and the lighting was dim and there were many corners. A ghost or monster could rush out at any point."Did you find any clues in the lobby just now?" Stefan turned around to ask Renee."An iron hook." Renee held onto that iron hook and walked behind Stefan. "Did you find anything strange just now?" Stefan had been standing outside the hospital and had escaped being trapped under the net. Logically, he should have found a lot of clues. "No, I didn't," Stefan answered honestly. "I just went to buy drinks, and when I came back, I saw that dark figure chasing you. I didn't have the time to find any clues.""How useless!" Renee scoffed, "I thought you stayed behind to do something useful, but I got more clues than you." "Tell me what clues you got." Stefan paused and looked at her calmly. "Didn't I tell you? This iron hook is the clue. Plus, it's

Renee looked in the same direction and saw the doors. Heart pounding, she moved closer to Stefan. "What... What's in there?""What do you think?" Stefan calmly replied."We're at the hospital, and this is the basement, so I guess... it should be the morgue." Renee swallowed, getting goosebumps on her skin."Yeah, this should be the morgue." Stefan smirked at her. "Do you want to check it out?""The morgue?" Renee cleared her throat and pretended to be calm. "Well, I don't mind since I'm pretty fearless, but you're delicate. You've never experienced hardships before. What if you see a corpse and faint?" "It's just a dead body... I think I can handle it," Stefan scoffed."Maybe corpses are okay, but if this place used to be a hospital, then I'm sure there are a lot of unhappy spirits and ghosts here. If we bump into them, it'll be unlucky.""Are you scared?" Stefan raised his brows. "If you're scared, we don't have to go in. It's just a game anyway.""No, I'm not! Ghosts are not
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1960
As expected, it was a morgue. The air-conditioning was on full blast in the room full of tables and freezers, and the place was around two hundred to three hundred square feet. A dull blue light illuminated the area."Oh, it really is a morgue. Are we... going in?" Renee grabbed Stefan's clothes and asked, trying and failing to sound brave."Of course! We're already here. Maybe... Jayla is in there?" Stefan smiled and entered the room. "You seem to be enjoying yourself, Stefan. I always knew you had a twisted mind!" Renee hid in his arms and criticized him."Thank you, but my mind is perfectly fine." Stefan rolled his eyes, then explained seriously, "I think everything in this world is a medium, be it humans, animals, or spiritual beings. Their existence is natural. You're afraid of them, but maybe they're afraid of you too. So, just calm down and take things as they are. You don't have to be scared at all.""Hmm.... you're right. We're all on Earth anyway. At most, our latitude

"I'm fine." Renee was calm as she patted Stefan's arm. "But you might break my ribs if you don't get off me."At that moment, Stefan was clinging to Renee like an octopus. He had even buried his head in her neck timidly. He cleared his throat, quickly detaching from Renee as he muttered awkwardly, "I'm sorry. I forgot my manners." Putting on a poker face, he told Renee, "You're quite strong.""Yeah, I've been hitting the gym lately." Renee suppressed her smile as she observed him. "But you seem a little spooked. It's just a prop, so why were you so scared?" She'd thought he was an unaffected expert who would win this easily, but in the end, he was just a coward. In fact, he was more terrified than her! However, it felt good turning the tables and having the lady protect the man instead. "You can stay behind me if you're scared, boy. Young men like you aren't experienced, so you need strong women like us to protect you. You should be gentler, since strong women don't like fierce men…

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.
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2420
"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
