The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1107
After Stefan ended his conversation with Elijah, he was in a very irritable mood. He switched his laptop off and prepared to go for a walk nearby to relax.For the past few days, he had been getting increasingly frustrated with company matters. It was to the point he even thought of stepping down. However, it was impossible to abdicate the position at this very moment.At present, looking at the entire Hunt family, the only people who were capable of taking up the responsibility of managing the entire company were he and Jovan.Jovan was now traveling around the world, enjoying life with that 'liar.' Hence, if Stefan were to give up as well, both the company and the family would be ruined.Reality was indeed rather cruel, as this was a dog-eat-dog world.As the head of the eight families in Beach City, the Hunt family was able to enjoy power and glory, with just as much risk and responsibility to bear. Thus, he wouldn't dare to stop for a single moment, no matter how tired he felt

The beautiful figure didn't even raise her head. She skillfully undid the baby's clothes and pumped his chest, then went to mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration in one swift motion.After several cycles of compression and respiration, the child finally coughed out some water and slowly regained consciousness."He should be fine now, but it's better if you take him to a doctor for a checkup." The figure finally sighed in relief and said to the young mother."Thank you, thank you, you saved me and my baby's life!" The young mother hugged her baby and thanked them, then rushed off to the hospital.Stefan was simply drenched, and his hair was still dripping wet as the water trickled down his perfectly defined features. His long fingers brushed through his thick hair. Despite the exhaustion, he was rather happy with doing a good deed. 'It's true that good deeds breed good feelings!'"Hey, wait a minute!" Seeing that the figure was about to leave, Stefan called out to the woman."

"Ahem!" Renee took a few steps backward, letting out a few dry coughs as well. "Sir, you don't have to be so awkward, you know? Did you get water in your brain when you dived into the lake?""Don't change the subject. Just say yes or no." The man spoke as if he were an experienced hunter, not giving her the slightest chance to back out, as if he were trying to peer through the depths of her heart."Yeah, yeah…" Renee took a deep breath and averted the man's deep gaze. She started spewing a bunch of nonsense instead. "Oh, Sir, my admiration for you is like a tsunami, whose waves fill my heart with love as they crash on the shore! I simply cannot wait to appear before you with a bouquet of flowers, where I can finally worship you for the beauty that you are! You have truly seduced me, oh my Prince Charming!"Stefan was silent.Renee continued. "Are you happy now? You don't have to act out the dominant CEO trope anymore. It's just so awkward!"The man was even more confused now.R

Since Jovan couldn't see, she behaved more comfortable around him."Then why change clothes?" Jovan's expression seemed uneasy as he pursued the question. "Well… Because my clothes were dirty." Renee told a white lie, not revealing her encounter with Stefan. Otherwise, being the jealous prick he was, Jovan would certainly overthink. "You're lying." Jovan frowned, obviously aggravated. "You said that you would never lie to me, but now you're treating me like a fool!"Renee realized that the man must know something. After all, many people came and went from the hospital. Being an old acquaintance there, it was inevitable that someone would end up telling him some kind of information."You say I lied to you, then tell me, what did I lie to you about?" the woman asked carefully."Dr. David told me about the drowning incident around the lake. You jumped to save a life, so you're changing because your clothes are wet, not that they're dirty!" Jovan replied seriously.Renee felt reli

When Renee held the documents and went through the formalities to help Jovan transfer to another hospital, Jovan's attending doctor, David, was very surprised. "Joan, why do you suddenly want to transfer Van to another hospital? He's now in the critical period of his recovery, and he can't endure the stress of moving to another hospital." David was one of the doctors with the most medical experience in the surrounding cities. Besides, he was amiable, humble, and responsible. When they first arrived at that town, they came because of David's medical skills, not to mention he was also the one treating Jovan's illness. Hence, they established a very good friendship."There's a special condition, so we need to leave for a while for the time being. When the time is right, we'll come back again."Renee gave David a rough explanation because she could not go into the details. "If you want to transfer to another hospital, you'll have to change his attending doctor. You're aware that

Based on his understanding of her, she would never leave if it was not an extremely urgent affair. She upheld a carefree and laid-back lifestyle. It might be a very dangerous affair if she were to become so restless with anxiety out of the blue."It's because… If we don't go home now, my sunflowers will wither. Can't you see why I'm in such a hurry?""Hmph! What a good reason! Do you think I believe that?"Jovan did not even bother to complain about that. He stated solemnly, "You even promised me just now that you'll tell me right away if anything happens to you. You won't lie to me. Are you trying to break your promise now?" "Ah. Life is already hard enough. Please don't expose my lie. It's hard to talk about this now. I'll explain to you in detail when we're home."While comforting Jovan, Renee waited for the elevator.Ding! The door of the elevator opened. Coincidentally, the person she was trying to avoid stood right in the middle of the elevator. It was Stefan.They lo

"It's late now. I want to rest. If you want to know, come to me early tomorrow morning. I'll tell you everything."I'm sleepy. Push me back," Jovan asked Renee."Okay." Renee nodded very obediently. Watching their backs disappear from his sight; displeasure crept up Stefan's heart.They were so harmonious and warm together, as an old married couple would. In comparison, he looked like an unreasonable maniac. 'What happened? Who can tell me? What the hell happened?'I think I'm going mad!' Without turning around, Renee pushed Jovan back to his original ward. She tucked him in after quietly making the bed and helping him back on it. She was quiet the entire time, with her chest stuffed with complicated feelings.Finally, she still failed to avoid him. It might be their fates. It was destined that the simple incident would become complicated. The calm surface of the lake would be attacked by billowing waves. Jovan leaned against the head of the bed. His handsome face was

Unexpectedly, she saw Stefan leaning against the wall outside the ward as soon as she opened the door. The incandescent lamp in the corridor hit him, casting a long shadow on the floor.Wearing a cold face, she kept quiet and was about to close the door when…"Let's have a chat."He looked up and suggested with a hoarse voice."We have nothing more to talk about.""If you thought so, you won't open the door at this hour." Renee was struck speechless.For a moment, she found it hard to give a reply.'Yeah, I tossed and turned in bed because there are too many things in my heart. I couldn't fall asleep. If I don't sort these things out, I'll be restless for a very long time.""Fine. Let's talk."After agreeing, they took the elevator to the rooftop.The rooftop had a great atmosphere. It was a cafe with an outdoor dome, where one could see the brightest stars. Renee casually sat down and looked up at the twinkling stars. She did not speak for a long time.Stefan stayed wit

"I'm so thirsty!" The burning sensation of the wine made Renee thirsty. She wanted to drink some water.In the dark, she heard some rustling. The next second, something was on her lips. It seemed to be someone else's lips. She wondered if someone had secretly kissed her."Who are you?" Renee grabbed the person in front of her and interrogated angrily, "How dare you kiss me without my permission! Do you know who I am? I'll cut off your lips!""Let's see if you can do that or not." The man sounded dull and drunk, but he was also overbearing.Although Renee was drunk, she could discern who it was. She called out in the dark and tried to confirm her doubt. "Haze…?" "Yeah, it's me," Justin admitted, but he did not plan to let her go. He used a more overbearing manner and trapped her between him and the door."What do you want?" Renee panicked. She wanted to kick him away, but she did not resist when she learned that it was Justin. After she had done so many things to hurt him, s

The servant walked forward with trepidation and helped Justin back to his room. Austin's eyes were dark. He whispered to his assistant, who nodded and immediately carried out his order.After two glasses of strong wine, Renee felt dizzy and could not stand steadily. "It's weird. Is this wine this strong? I just had two glasses of it, but I feel quite dizzy." It was hard for her to exit the hall. She could not stand properly, so she supported herself against the wall."Ms. Everheart, you didn't seem well. Let me help you to get some rest." Austin's assistant caught up to her and stood behind her. He even sounded respectful. "It's… fine. I can go back to my room." Renee waved; she didn't want to trouble others. Besides, she did not want others to see how miserable she was. She had assumed that she was good at drinking and would not get drunk, but it seemed like she had overestimated herself. After two glasses of wine, she became quite drowsy. She would not easily leave if s

Renee blinked and smiled brightly at Justin, asking him, "Are you worried about me?" "No, I'm not worried about you!" Justin said angrily. "I don't want you to get killed here. I can't explain it to your brother and kids. It's hard to handle the three of them."He was not lying. Although he had befriended Quinton, Adie and Abby might make a scene there if they realized that Renee had drunk so much wine at the party. They were witty, always full of ideas.Hence, it was better not to cause trouble. Before they could make a scene and things get out of control, Justin must stop Renee. He wasn't worried about her at all. "So, you're not worried about me?" Renee's gaze turned dull as she sighed. "It looks like you didn't forgive me. So, I must drink this glass of wine." Something was wrong with Renee, or perhaps she just wanted to torture herself. It seemed like she insisted on drinking the wine. She swung off Justin's hand and gulped down the wine."You're out of your mind!" Justi

The aged white wine was strong. Ordinary people would find it hard to drink a glass of it. Yet, Renee had drunk two glasses of it consecutively. It was a little dangerous. Everyone at the dining table was initially watching the fun, but they showed Renee some pity after she drank two glasses of wine consecutively. After wiping her lips clean, Renee staggered and said to Justin, "Let me toast to you now. I've wronged you the most." Justin, sitting there, said with a poker face, "You don't have to say sorry to me. We don't hold each other any grudge. After all, we can't make others fall in love with us.""No, I must apologize to you. It's for my sake." After that, Renee used a bigger glass and filled it with wine."Whatever!" Justin frowned and ignored Renee. He had no idea what was wrong with her. He had yielded and let her off, but she stubbornly wanted to keep drinking the wine.He wondered if she had forgotten the fact that she had just recovered from a serious illness. She

Suddenly, Justin became mature and stopped making jokes. He talked steadily and was no longer emotional. It filled Austin with worry because it made him feel like Justin was an emotionless robot.In comparison, he liked Justin's previous self better. At that time, Justin was simple and sentimental. He was the grandson Austin doted on the most.Sophia grinned and commented, "Dad, you don't have to worry about Justin. Men will change. Previously, he was just a childish kid even though he was in his twenties. He didn't know how to see through people's pretense. But he's all grown up now. He knows what's right or wrong. That's a great thing!" As a mother, she naturally did not want her son to get hurt. Although she favored Renee and wanted the latter to be her daughter-in-law, she would give up since Renee had let her son down and harmed him. All she wanted was to see Renee get away from her son."Yes, you're right. People need to grow up. He has grown up a lot lately, but the price

After a while, a servant quickly came back with a bottle of wine tied with a piece of red cloth. "Sir, Madam, this bottle of white wine was brewed more than ten years ago. It comes with a rich taste and is strong. I'm sure it's suitable for Ms. Everheart to toast to everyone as a form of apology.""That's good. That's what I want." Rose accepted the heavy bottle of wine. Although it was yet to be unscrewed, she could smell its pungent scent. "I won't easily let anyone drink this. Plus… Believe it or not, a glass of this wine can knock out anyone here." Rose carried the bottle of wine and walked around the table. Finally, she stopped in front of Renee. "I'm letting a sinner like you enjoy such a great thing today. You must drink all of it. You can't waste it.""Huh? Does she have to drink it all? I'm afraid she'll vomit from drinking.""People will lose themselves with only three to five glasses of this wine. If they drink half of it, they might get alcohol poisoning no matter

If any Baldwin demanded an explanation from Renee, she would not resent them."Fine, I won't go easy on you since you said so." Rose laughed recklessly, looking malicious. Everyone knew Rose was fierce and malicious. But none of them said anything, including Justin. They behaved like onlookers and wanted to see how Rose would punish Renee. "Please go ahead." Renee nodded and sounded very calm. "Don't worry. Regardless, you were the only woman my dear grandnephew had loved and wanted to marry. So, I won't be harsh on you. If not, he won't forgive me." At that point, Rose purposely paused and wanted to see how Justin would react.However, Justin merely sat there indifferently and had no intention to get Renee out of the predicament. Hence, Rose became bolder. "Well, let's do this. You've wronged not only Justin but everyone in my family. Since you're here to apologize, you should toast to all of us. Then, we can forget about this."After that, Rose turned to Austin and asked

The party started officially at night. It was a small party, and only some close relatives of the Baldwin family attended.Austin took the main seat while his son and daughter-in-law sat in the secondary seats. Justin and the others sat accordingly.After dressing herself up, Renee attended the party in simple clothes. She looked like a young lady from a great family. Adie, Abby, and Quinton did not attend the party to avoid unnecessary disputes. Renee was the only one who attended the party. When she reached the hall, the people had already taken their seats. They sized her up maliciously and studied her as if they wanted to make her pay a heavy price."Hello, ladies and gentlemen. I got here late." Renee took a deep breath and naturally greeted everyone. She appeared composed, but she knew she was rather frightened. She never panicked when she faced such a scene alone in the past. She could easily handle it because Justin would always take her side no matter what happened.

Quinton was fine even if Renee wasn't that happy. But she must lead a steady life and live beyond a hundred years old. "Quinton, I know I owed the Baldwin family a lot, even if you didn't tell me. I won't be back if not for the sake of their kindness."Renee did not hide or lie even if Justin was around. She merely wanted Justin to hold no hope in her. "How could you be this straightforward?" Quinton had purposely brought Justin along because he wanted to bring Justin and Renee together. He felt that they could still be together since things weren't that hopeless. But the disappointing Renee ruined all possibilities easily. Kindness didn't exist between a romantic couple."It's fine." Justin looked indifferent before he snorted. "I'm glad she made things clear. It's better than being ambiguous.""I'm sorry." Renee looked at Justin. Although she had made herself clear, her guilt did not diminish. She immediately expressed her guilt and helplessness since Justin did not igno
