Xavier gulped. He couldn't process what the woman just said."I sold myself to the casino, and the casino could do anything it wanted to me. I had already lost the will to live because my fate would be equally torturous no matter which man I ended up with. Thank goodness, God took pity on me and left me in your hands…" The woman was overly emotional and couldn't help but lean closer to Xavier."Wait a second. Don't come near me!"Xavier, a towering man of over six feet, backed away as if he'd just seen a terrifying beast. He intentionally kept his distance from the woman.The woman seemed visibly hurt by his response, and she stopped moving. "Mister, are you disgusted by me? Are you afraid I might keep bugging you?""No, that's not it!" Xavier waved his hands. "That's not what I meant. I just think that you're a person, not an object. You shouldn't allow others to control your life.""I get what you mean, but I've already signed a contract with the casino. If you don't want me, I

"Oh no! Someone fainted!" There was a panicked scream from the crowd.Xavier had already gotten into his car. He didn't want to get involved with a woman who had nothing to do with him.However, the crowd grew larger and larger, and among them included some men with ill intentions. Hence, he couldn't resist frowning and walked over quickly."Get out of the way!" Xavier pushed his way through the crowd. His voice was loud and powerful.The crowd could instantly tell that he was from a rich family, and they made way for him.However, there was an arrogant goon who didn't think much of Xavier. He tried to carry Shirley, who was now unconscious, back to his place for his own pleasure."Let go of her!" Xavier shouted at the man with a scar on his face, keeping his hands in his pockets while doing so."Who the hell are you? Mind your own business. I found this chick first. Don't try to snatch her from me!" The man exclaimed before openly carrying her over his shoulder and trying to le

"Uhm. What did you hear?" Xavier asked."I heard you saying I belonged to you. Does this mean you've accepted me?""Please don't misunderstand. It was an emergency. I had to…""Thank you!" Although Shirley was smiling, her eyes filled with tears. "I have no regrets after hearing what you said. Thankfully, I won't become an aimless, wandering spirit after I die.""What are you saying? What do you mean after you die?"Xavier felt a tightness in his chest. This woman was weird. It sounded like she was saying her last words."Can I ask for a small favor from you?" Shirley grabbed Xavier's arms and asked in a sad voice.She looked so pitiful that Xavier couldn't help but give in. "Tell me what it is.""After I die, keep my ash in a small box and bury it in a well in the village. You don't have to organize any rituals. Just send someone to pray for me each year…" She was barely breathing when she said this.Xavier felt something was off. He asked sternly, "What's the matter? Are you

Stefan was shocked to discover that the topographical structure and direction of the route on the map were identical to the entrance of the Hunt family's ancestral grave on Mount Lodge in North City.The Hunt family spanned a long history that dated as far back as the Thame Dynasty. In fact, there were generals and ministers in the family throughout the generations, and they all held prominent positions. The family had always been active in North City, and their ancestors were also buried on Mount Lodge, which had the best Fengshui and was inaccessible to outsiders.Only during his great-grandfather's generation did his family move south to create their business empire in Beach City, which was located on the other side of the country.Apart from periods when important festivities were held, the Hunt family rarely returned to North City."This is odd. Why would the map to the Hunts' ancestral grave be sewn on Renee's sheet?" Stefan asked out loud.Could there be a connection betwee

"I need you to turn this novel into a movie within three months. In fact, I don't care how much money you have to spend; I want you to make it the most popular movie in the world!" Stefan cut to the chase with his request.The Stuart family owned the world-renowned entertainment company Universal Entertainment. The artists signed by the company were all international superstars who had produced many internationally-acclaimed movies, TV series, and variety shows. Stefan knew he could entrust this matter to Xavier."You didn't have to tell me. I had the same thought after reading it too!" Xavier's eyes lit up. "The adaptation of real life, the characters' personalities, and the intense conflict involved make it ideal for a movie, but… The storyline is somewhat cliché. I think it's better off as an idol drama. If you want to make it into a movie and expect it to become world-famous, it's not going to be easy.""If it were easy, why would I come to you?" Stefan seemed determined. "I wan

Three months later, on a private island in Southeast Aeos, Renee was lying on a white hammock while she ate a piece of chilled watermelon and watched short videos on her phone.There were two more months until she was due to deliver, and her belly was bulging.Ever since she left Beach City, she'd been staying on this island. She walked in the breeze, ate, drank, and read novels every day. She also managed Azure Group and her law firm remotely. Life was leisurely and comfortable.Just as she read on the internet, being close to men only led to misfortunes!Ever since Renee left Stefan for good, life had been nothing but enjoyable. She could wake up whenever she wanted. She was so happy that she even gained a good amount of weight.She bought this island many years ago with money from her scholarship, patent fees, and pocket money she had saved since she was a child. She designed it the way she'd imagined.Her initial plan was to make this a holiday home and bring her family here

"Alright, alright. You're so naggy. You've been nagging for the past nine hours during our journey. People who don't know you might even think you're going to be a father!" Leia rolled her eyes at Liam before hugging Renee once again. However, she was much more careful and gentle this time.Leia touched Renee's round, protruding belly and gasped in amazement. "Ren, your stomach is huge. It's so magical. Are there really two babies in there?"Renee figured that Liam probably told Leia everything. She no longer wanted to keep it a secret. "Yeah. They're twins. Oh, and I'll be due in two months."Renee felt that life was magical too.Throughout her time on this island, it felt like the world had slowed down around her. She could feel her babies growing in her stomach little by little.She'd talk to them, sing for them, and tell them stories. They seemed to understand everything. They'd always respond by moving around. She was absolutely overjoyed…"They're twins!" Leia's jaw dropped

"What is it?" Renee became curious. She quickly leaned forward.Leia pulled up a video. It looked like the video was recorded in a cinema. Several men and women stood before the big screen, seemingly promoting a movie."This is…" Renee's jaw dropped when she saw the actors introducing themselves. It was as if she'd just seen aliens."Haha! You weren't expecting this, were you? You must've guessed it… this is the premier of the movie 'Hunt my Everheart.' The movie is an adaptation of the story between you and Stefan. I watched it. It's so good. I cried a lot during the movie!" Leia recounted her experience. She desperately wanted to watch it again."I understand the logic behind it all, but can anyone tell me why that male lead… was Stefan?!" Renee rubbed her eyes repeatedly to make sure she wasn't mistaken. She still couldn't believe that Stefan acted as the male lead in the movie itself!Wasn't Stefan a workaholic? He was a business elite who could earn tens of millions in a few

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

"This is your welcome ceremony. This hand-drum dance is to help eliminate bad luck." Leia held Renee's arm, satisfied with her arrangement. She said happily, "Listen to their song! It's a great song!""Is there a song?" Renee frowned; she felt that Leia was always doing bizarre things. She wondered how Leia could come up with such a preposterous welcome ceremony."Mm, listen carefully! It's English. You can understand it." At that point, Leia said to the Zambawi people, "Put on your microphone. And sing louder."The Zambawi people gave their cooperation. They used their typical Zambawi singing to sing the English song. While listening to the song, Renee found it very familiar. "The flowers will bloom in spring, and the birds are free. I'm still waiting, waiting for my love to come back. Hurry home!""Isn't that Spring Flowers by Curtis Harrett?" Renee finally recalled what song it was. It was a song with a happy beat. It could make people happy. The Zambawi people made th

"I don't know, either. All I ever remember from when I was young is that I led a very painful life. I once tried my best to make the Garcia family accept me. I did all the dirty and tiring jobs. I went out to work at an early age to get money for them. I also did all the house chores. "But my foster parents were never nice to me. They would always beat me up or scold me. My elder foster brother also saw me as an eyesore. He always tried to get me killed…" Quinton calmly described his past. He no longer seemed to be in pain. All that was left in him was numbness, as if he were talking about someone else.However, Renee was always in pain whenever she heard him talk about his past. She felt like she had returned to his past with him and experienced those painful things. It was normal for her to feel that way because they were twins. A lot of their thoughts and feelings were synchronized. "I suddenly recalled that I would inexplicably become gloomy many times when I was young. I

"I'm sorry." When Renee heard that from Quinton, she realized the conflict between him and Stefan had yet to be resolved. It was temporarily put aside because of her. She occasionally saw him and Stefan talk to each other and drink together, but they merely put on a show to ease her mind. Their hatred for each other hadn't been eliminated. Instead, it was growing secretly. If Renee were Quinton, she might never forgive the person who had snatched away her beloved and seized her identity. That person even ruined her face."Why did you say sorry to me? It's the resentment between him and me. It has nothing to do with you. Plus, I didn't know he was my brother-in-law then. If I knew, I wouldn't have fought him." When Quinton recalled those affairs, he realized that people were nothing but the sport of fate. If there had been no resentment between him and Stefan, Renee might not have broken up with Stefan. Their families might even get closer. "Stop bringing up the past. It's
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2415
During these days, Renee was under pressure because of her affairs. She had no chance to ask Quinton about it. Now, the long flight gave them a chance to have a deep conversation. They could talk about their woes and seek consolation."Me?" Quinton lowered his head and shook his head helplessly. "I'm still the same old me. Nothing is troubling me. I've been busy with Carmine Pawnshop. I have no time to think about other stuff.""You have no time?" Renee touched her chin and smiled naughtily. "Then, you must have been dwelling on other stuff. Let me guess… Is it the thing between you and Joanne?" "Stop asking so much." Quinton did not deny it but refused to talk much about that. "It looks like I made the right guess. You fell out with Joanne, didn't you?" Renee knew Quinton well. Generally, his work would not affect his mood. The only person who could affect his mood was Joanne, who shared a complicated relationship with him. Before Renee left Beach City, she had created a l

After a long while, Quinton turned around. He looked at Renee, who was across from him, and heaved a long sigh."We're about to go home soon. Why do you look this gloomy? What's wrong…? Are you reluctant to part with this place?" Quinton said. "No, I'm not." Renee poured herself a glass of orange juice and sipped it. She frowned and dwelled on it before she said, "I feel empty inside. I don't know if I made the right choice.""Empty?" Quinton asked curiously."I think I've said goodbye to a steady life since I decided to leave. Maybe I'll keep on wandering from now on," Renee said melancholically. The reason why she chose to give it a try with Justin because she was tired. She was exhausted from leading a wandering life and wanted to settle down with someone. Others could not give her the sense of security like Justin. When she saw him, she inexplicably wanted a home. At that time, she thought she could forget about everything and start a new life with him. Unexpectedly, she

Adie was still a child, but he acted like a smart person and could see through a lot of things. He could guess why Austin took them to the Baldwin residence. He had also heard the servants of the Baldwin family rebuking Renee in secret. After combining various situations, he learned about what had happened between Renee and Justin. Despite everything, Justin could forgive Renee under such circumstances. He also treated Adie and Abby nicely. It proved that he was a very compassionate man. A small regret gripped Adie. He wondered why Renee didn't date Justin right from the start. If Renee were with such a kind man, she might be very happy. She wouldn't have to suffer through so many hardships either. "No, you don't know me. I always sweat the small stuff."Justin was displeased since Adie had claimed that he was a good guy, like Renee had. He heaved a long sigh and said, "But it's useless even if I sweat the small stuff, so I stop trying. It all comes down to fate. We can't forc
