Chapter 49

Author: Mizuki Sei
"What happened?" Stefan called out as he hung up the phone and went straight to the bathroom door.

Just as he was about to open the door, he heard Renee's panicked voice coming from inside, "I'm fine. Don't come in!"

And a series of loud banging sounds followed afterward.

It doesn't seem like she was fine.

After moments of hesitation, he pushed the door and entered.

"Ah! Who told you to come in? Get out!"

Renee was standing up in the bathtub. She quickly wrapped a towel around her n

  • The Untouchable Ex-Wife   Chapter 2757

    "Grandpa, you're being dramatic again."Stefan's voice came from the entrance to the living room. It was obvious he had arrived some time ago and had witnessed the entire exchange."What are you doing here?"The moment Renee saw him, murderous fury flashed in her eyes. Instinctively, she pulled Quinton behind her as if he were the one who needed protection.More than twenty years ago, her twin brother had been torn away from their family because of these people. More than twenty years later, she would never allow anything like that to happen again.It didn't matter that Quinton was now a grown man who was fully capable of protecting himself. To her, he would always be that helpless infant wrapped in blankets."I knew you'd come today. That's why I came too," Stefan answered casually.His tone was so relaxed, as if the resentment between them didn't exist. He acted like they were still an ordinary married couple.Wherever his wife went, as her husband, he naturally followed.Re

    The confusion in Timothy's eyes deepened. His voice carried a note of urgency as he looked at Quinton. "What do you mean by that? The Hunt family and the Everheart family have always been close allies. Your grandfather and I were closer than brothers. How could the Hunt family possibly have done anything to hurt the Everheart family?""Timothy, you're too sharp not to know something. Back then…"Quinton was about to lay everything out when Renee quickly grabbed his arm."Quinton!"After taking a deep breath, her voice thickened with emotion. "Grandpa Timothy is old. He had a heart transplant a few years ago, and he's still very weak. Don't say things that will upset him. He and Grandpa shared a bond forged through life and death. After the Everheart family fell apart, he was the one who protected me every step of the way."Quinton parted his lips slightly. All the anger and resentment he wanted to unleash were suppressed.His sister's reminder was subtle but clear. He couldn'

    "N-No."Unable to meet Timothy's gaze, Renee lowered her head.She still didn't know whether Timothy had known about her brother being taken away all those years ago. If he had known, she wasn't sure she could believe in human nature anymore.She couldn't imagine how someone who had helped cause so much pain to her family could still act as if nothing had happened and continue treating her like his own granddaughter.If that were true, then even Francine's cold attitude would seem more understandable.So she chose to believe Timothy hadn't known.And if he truly hadn't known, she didn't want him learning the full truth now.The whole situation was ugly and shameful enough already. She didn't want to burden him with that kind of guilt."No, something's definitely bothering you. Come tell me about it. Maybe I can help."Leaning on his cane, Timothy spoke to her with the same patience one might use to comfort a child.To him, Renee was still a child. She was a poor child who had

    “Master Hunt, we're sorry. We know we were wrong. We really do. Please, just give us one more chance!”The maids were trembling. They were so terrified they looked ready to drop to their knees and beg Stefan for forgiveness.Stefan calmly adjusted the buttons of his tailored dress shirt. His expression remained unreadable. "Why are you all so nervous? I just want you to tell me the truth.""T-The truth about what?" One of the maids looked up and asked cautiously."Do you honestly believe your Mrs. Hunt loves me more than anyone else?"Stefan repeated the question.This time, a crack seemed to appear in the cold, untouchable CEO persona he always portrayed. Behind it was a man full of insecurity who desperately searched for proof that he was loved.That's because he knew the past he had worked so hard to bury had finally come to light. Renee knew everything now.The fact that she had come today meant they were standing on opposite sides at last. Any hope of keeping her in the da

    "Mrs. Hunt! You're back! Hurry, come inside!"The moment Renee parked outside Hunt Manor's gates, one of the maids spotted her and hurried over enthusiastically to greet her."I'll let Master Hunt, Old Mr. Hunt, and Madam Hunt know right away!"The maid's bright smile faltered slightly when she noticed Quinton stepping out of the vehicle behind Renee. She cautiously asked, "And who might this gentleman be?""My brother."Renee answered without hesitation. Her expression remained cold as she made their relationship perfectly clear."Y-Your brother?"The maid's eyes went wide. She was shocked by that piece of information.Everyone knew that Renee, the former heiress of the Everheart family, which was also the most prominent of the Great Eight of Beach City, had been an only child. Countless girls had envied her.Even after the Everheart family's collapse, and after her brief fall from grace, she had once again become the subject of envy when she married the famous second son of

    "I…"Quinton froze. He was suddenly at a loss for words.For the first time, he regretted being the person he used to be. Back then, hatred had consumed him so completely that he had unknowingly passed much of it on to Renee. Now she was standing exactly where he once stood. She was trapped in the same extreme mindset.Unfortunately, there was no undoing the past. He had to live with the consequences of his own actions."So what are you planning to do?"He knew there was no convincing Renee to let it go. If he couldn't stop her, then he would walk beside her.If she chose forgiveness, he would forgive.If she chose revenge, he would become her trusted accomplice."I want the Hunt family to pay the same price. I want them to know what it feels like to be separated from their own flesh and blood!"Renee clenched her fists."Separated from their own flesh and blood?"Quinton was curious what she meant by that.At present, the Hunt family line was fairly straightforward. There

Thanks to their status and identities, the parents around

    Then, before Jeffrey could stop her, Renee dashed out of the ward. Jeffrey couldn't catch up with her, and watched her run off nervously.When Renee reached the corner of the stairs, she suddenly saw a tall figure in familiar clothes. He looked just like Stefan."Stefan!" Renee screamed and rushed ove

    A plump boy kept jumping on the beach, trying to catch some fish but failing to get any. "This isn't fun at all!" The plump boy named Tubby grabbed the fishing tools and threw them onto the sand angrily. He grabbed his father's hand and wailed. "Why can't our family catch any fish? What are you both

    "An angel?" Dazed, Adie forced himself to open his eyes. He saw light pouring in from the blocked entrance, and to his surprise, the person he had been longing for stood there. "Mommy... The angel is Mommy!" Adie's eyes widened in delight, and he waved at Renee excitedly.At that moment, Renee had du
