That would make sense, but Renee still felt like something was off because it was too much of a coincidence."If you've got nothing to hide, then come clean to Lei about your relationship with Briar. If she takes it well, I won't say anything else on the matter," Renee demanded. Her biggest worry was that she was the reason why Leia was caught up in all this. Every time she met that woman, things went downhill.“I know what you're worried about, and it's not something that I need to be reminded of. I will make sure to talk it out with Lei." William promised Renee, his tone sincere."Fine, you better be honest about everything, and remember what you just told me. If you try any funny business, I'll make sure you regret it!" As Renee hadn't caught Willian slipping up, she warned him again for good measure.William walked away from the room. Leia, who had been waiting outside, rushed up to him. "How did it go with my best friend? Did you pass?""I think I got more than 80%,” Willia

William's expression seemed troubled. After a moment, he said, "Could you let me know what you plan to do to them?""Why are you asking so many questions!" Briar's gaze turned frosty and she snapped, "You know what I've been through! You were the one who told me you loved me, and would do anything for me. This is your chance to prove yourself, so don't you dare drop the ball on this. If this plan succeeds, I will give you anything you could ever ask for!""I…" William took a deep breath, his fists clenching as he responded, "I understand. My love for you is unshakable—even if the entire world turns its back on you, I will always stand by you."Briar smiled in approval, her tone arrogant as she declared, "Don't you dare go back on your word. I, Briar Desroisers, despise men who make empty promises."Oh yeah, since you've known that woman's best friend for so long, what other information have you learned apart from her having two kids?""There's no new info for now. Leia's being tig

"Edith, don't you think that the lilies in our garden look especially beautiful this year? They look bigger too!" Francine asked the housekeeper beside her, who was currently waiting on her."Huh?" Edith wanted to say that the lilies bloomed the same every year, as was the case now. However, she did not want to ruin Francine's mood so she agreed, "Yes, there are a lot this year, and they are quite lovely, like last year!"Francine's gaze slid over Edith, and she protested indignantly, "How are they anything like last year's flowers? They clearly look better this year! Oh, and… do you want to know the symbolic meaning of lilies in full bloom?""Uh, what do they symbolize?""Lilies symbolize a lasting happy marriage. Since this year's flowers are blooming so beautifully, it's a sign from the heavens that my son and my daughter-in-law are about to get together and stay with each other forever!" Francine exclaimed in joy. She then picked one of the flowers and admired it in her hand, a

"Alright, alright, let her in!" Francine said reluctantly.In reality, she wasn't very pleased with Briar. If that woman hadn't gotten pregnant with a child of the Hunt family, then ended up in such a sorry state, she would have abandoned her long ago.After a while, a servant guided a plainly dressed, frail Ms. Desrosier into the garden."Look at her, outsiders would think she was here to mourn the dead! She's going to bring us bad luck! " Francine frowned as she looked on with scorn, ranting to Edith."Madam Francine!" Briar slowly approached and started sobbing as soon as she was in front of her, "Madam Francine, I think I've ruined everything! You have to help me this time! If you don't, Stefan might never forgive me, and he'll ignore me forever…""Really?" Francine's first thought was, 'Could this really be true? My angel of a son is finally going to get rid of you?'Regardless, she kept up a regal facade out of courtesy, and feigned concern. "Stop crying first. Tell me what

Thus, Francine took her phone out and dialed Stefan's personal number. "I'd like to ask Stef about the entire situation. I really don't believe that the girl would be so insolent!"However, it turned out that she couldn't reach Stefan as well. Not even Elijah knew about his whereabouts."That's weird, why can't I reach him? That kid's usually at work at this hour, and Hunt Enterprise is facing quite a lot of challenging matters that require his attention. Where has he run off to?" Francine's face was painted with concern as she realized the severity of the situation.After that, she contacted everyone she could, trying her best to find Stefan, only to find that they were looking for the man as well."Why can't I contact that child? Did something happen to him?" Francine seemed uneasy.Lately, Hunt Enterprise was gaining quite a lot of traction as they were about to mass produce their new smartphone model, the ME2350. Once they successfully signed a contract with KCL Group, the ent

Francine and Briar soon arrived at the hospital Renee was at. Liam had to handle some matters regarding Azure Group, so Renee was the only one present in the ward at the time. She was currently on a video call with her daughter. "Abby, is your brother still busy with his research? Is that why he won't see Mommy?""Yes, Mommy. Adie is very focused on his research, so he can't have any distractions. You might not see him for a while…""Not even for a second?" Renee poked Abigail's adorable cheek on her screen, pouting. "Abby, please… Just secretly point the camera at Adie, okay? Let Mommy see your brother for a bit!""No, no!" Abigail shook her head profusely, seemingly determined. "Abby pinky-promised Adie that I won't let anyone see him before his research is successful! I want to keep my promises, or else my nose will grow long like Pinocchio's!""Ah, okay then…" Renee sighed, as she had failed once again. Her heart always naturally melted in front of her two babies, no matter h

"Yeah, exactly!" Renee agreed quickly. "My friends are all weirdos—we even call each other Mommy in private!""What in the world… your friends are just as weird as you are!" Francine exclaimed. Although she did find it odd, she didn't press her. After all, this wasn't the reason she was here.She placed the beautiful bouquet of lilies on Renee's desk, then pulled a chair over to sit down next to the bed. Her natural movements made it seem like she was a close loved one to the injured woman."Tell me. Where have you been hiding after making such a big mistake? Did you get married? Any kids?" Francine behaved like an elegant rich lady, and every question sounded like an interrogation. She knew her idiot of a son wouldn't ask such questions, especially with his temper and ego, which was why she had to do it in his stead.Renee smiled coldly. "Madam Francine, why do I need to answer your questions? Do you think we're close?"It had been four years, and yet her ex mother-in-law was sti

Francine collected herself, preparing to go on yet another rant.Just then, Briar interrupted her with a darkened expression, turning towards Renee. "Ms. Everheart, we actually came to ask if you know of Stef's whereabouts. It's been an entire day, and we've tried everything we could to contact him. For some reason, we just couldn't reach him, and he wouldn't pick up the phone! We're worried something might've happened to him…""You can't reach him?" Renee frowned, visibly confused. "That's not right. He already went through surgery, so he should've called you guys the moment he woke up.""What? Surgery?!" Francine jumped abruptly, her expression panicked as she continued, "What kind of surgery? Where is he now? What happened to him?""Uhm…" Renee read Francine's reactions and realized she might not know anything about the accident. After a brief pause, she decided to tell the truth. "I fell down a cliff and injured my leg. He hurt himself while trying to save me, and I heard he

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

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
