The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 122
A feast had been laid out for dinner, with various types of poultry and seafood served.Stefan frowned slightly when he sat down. Timothy normally had light meals, so why were there so many dishes prepared?This was no simple dinner... The old man was definitely up to something.Stefan didn't ask any questions. He just picked up his cutlery and prepared to eat.Timothy, who was sitting at the head of the table, cleared his throat. "We're still waiting for someone. What's the rush?"Just as Stefan thought! He raised his brows slightly before silently putting down his cutlery. He figured that Timothy probably invited Renee too. Clearly, he was trying to set them up.His tone was icy as he growled, "Grandpa, I know what you're thinking, but these things can't be forced. Renee and I are over, so stop wasting your time.""Hah! Dream on." Timothy leisurely stroked his beard and smiled mysteriously. "I wouldn't force Ren to get with a scumbag like you. That'd only make her suffer!"St
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 123
Stefan's words made Renee's blood boil. Fueled by her desire to beat Stefan, she immediately turned to his grandfather and said enthusiastically, "It's true, Grandpa. Liam and I are officially dating. I hope you can forgive me and give us your blessings. He's the one who can truly protect me and make me happy!"Liam looked tenderly at Renee next to him. He knew this was only an act to make Stefan angry, but he still felt touched by what Renee said. After all, he wasn't even Renee's backup plan.Liam suddenly felt a rush of happiness at the feeling of being Renee's boyfriend. It was like he'd won the lottery!Timothy remained stern for a few seconds before suddenly bursting into laughter. He smiled at Renee and said kindly, "Silly child, of course I'll offer you my blessings. I wouldn't have invited you two over for dinner otherwise. I only wanted to see if this kid was reliable, and if he could look after you. You've just got out of a painful relationship, so how could I possibly le
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 124
Stefan blinked at Liam, dumbfounded. Naturally, he couldn't answer. Although he and Renee had been married for four years, he could count the number of times they'd dined at the same table. Even when they did, he never really paid attention to the food she liked."I don't waste time on pointless things like that," Stefan scoffed arrogantly."Pointless things?" Liam's playfulness instantly disappeared, and was quickly replaced by rage."That's right. A cold-blooded reptile like you will always be selfish. Why would you ever think of someone else?" Liam wasn't afraid of making Stefan angry. In fact, he would have loved to teach Stefan a lesson with his fists instead!"You know, I feel sorry for Ren. She poured her heart and soul into the relationship. She knows that you like mild-flavored food, not spicy food. She also knows you like your steak cooked medium rare, and learned over a hundred ways of cooking steak for you. Unfortunately, her thoughtfulness and efforts were just a waste
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 125
The annual Global Technology Summit was being held at Lux Hotel.Various media companies and reporters were waiting outside the hotel at the break of dawn with their equipment, eagerly waiting for two particular people to show up. One of them was a man troubled by his divorce, the future heir of the Hunt family, and also the CEO of Hunt Enterprise, Stefan Hunt. The other was a well-known researcher in the field of electronic chips, who also happened to be KCL Holdings' largest shareholder, Mr. Y. Mr. Y attracted a lot of public attention not just because of his mysterious identity and the fact that he'd never shown up in public, but also because he had a tight-knit relationship with Stefan. The chips created by KCL Holdings were only sold to Hunt Enterprise, which meant that Hunt Enterprise occupied 75 percent of the market in the electronics and technology industry. On top of that, Stefan frequently met with a mysterious man in a hotel. It was rumored that this man was most likel
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 126
"What do you think two men might be up to if they're staying in the same hotel room?" Someone said teasingly, and the group started laughing again.This 'rumor' regarding Stefan and Mr. Y had actually started out as a funny little insult within the industry. However, a series of coincidences made it sound like it was true."Besides, I heard that Mr. Hunt didn't divorce his wife because he was cheating with another woman. That 'mistress' was actually a paid actor, hired by Mr. Hunt and Mr. Y…""No way!"Renee was dumbfounded. She immediately recalled her interactions with the man. The way he avoided women, how there were never any scandals involving him, and how he didn't smile often around her… 'It does feel like there's some truth in this rumor, but if he really was gay, why did he… do that to me the other night?' Renee felt immensely confused, and opened up Google on her phone.There were so many people around that Renee was squeezed out of the crowd once the search results ap
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 127
Renee was stupefied as she observed the eager Julian. She thought to herself, 'Hey, my ex-husband is the one cheating here, so why are you so enthusiastic about it?'However, she was able to come to a conclusion quickly. "You entertainers really are quite open-minded! I bet you're so eager to catch this paramour because you want Stefan to be your sugar daddy, right?" Renee concluded smugly as she entered the elevator too. She felt like Sherlock Holmes for a moment, thinking she had figured out what was going on in Julian's mind."Pfft!" Julian's eyes widened as he nearly choked on his own saliva. This was a side of Renee he had never seen before. "Don't you think you're overanalyzing this?""Am I?" Renee replied defiantly, as she really didn't think she was. It was quite difficult to predict anyone's sexuality after all, especially an idol's.Some idols would interact in certain ways with the other members to maintain popularity using the fans' shipping culture, while some would

"What the…?"Before Renee could react, Julian disappeared from her view after saying, "Instead of sneaking around, isn't it better to just go inside and look for yourself?"'Why, you little…!' The woman cursed him in her mind angrily. She didn't even think about why Julian knew the password to the suite, all she wanted to do was make her escape. 'I'll be doomed if Stefan and his mysterious boyfriend find out I'm in their room!'It was fortunate that the suite was quite large, as she didn't notice anyone around. Just as Renee got to her feet to leave, she heard a voice coming from the bathroom.'Oh my god, are they… showering together?'Thinking about how intimate it was, Renee couldn't help but shudder, gulping nervously. 'I still can't believe the man I loved for four whole years… is actually gay! This is devastating…'Due to her curiosity and unwillingness to accept the fact, Renee mustered up her courage and walked towards the bathroom. She then pressed her ear against the gla
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 129
The hot mist within the shower created quite a steamy atmosphere.Stefan towered over Renee as he pinned her to the wall and murmured, "Is this close enough for you? Can you see everything clearly now?"Renee felt light-headed, her face burning up in embarrassment. She tried breaking free from his grasp, huffing in rage. "Let go of me, Stefan! I know you're a homosexual, so drop the act!""Homosexual?" Stefan narrowed his eyes, visibly confused. 'How did this crazy woman come to the conclusion that I like men?'"Aren't you?" Renee decided to take this opportunity to ask more questions. "Is your lover really Mr. Y, the largest shareholder of KCL Holdings? How long have you guys been dating? Was Briar just a scapegoat for your secret relationship?"Stefan stared at her incredulously, unsure if he should stay mad at her, or laugh at how ridiculous she was being.He leaned down towards Renee, brushing his lips against her ear as he said softly, "Do you really think I like men?""I…"

Renee covered her lips, her tone filled with disbelief. "I…cut myself." Justin leaned against the corner and frowned deeply. He was in deep pain."Why did you cut yourself?" Renee was scared out of her wits and grew more sober. In her panic, she threw herself at him and tried to stop his bleeding.Justin reacted aggressively as he waved his dagger and warned fiercely, "Get away from me! Don't touch me!" "I…" Renee paused, too afraid to act recklessly. She pointed at his wound and said, "I'm just worried about you. You're bleeding. It must hurt a lot. Why did you hurt yourself?" "It's better to be in pain!" Justin gnashed his teeth and said in agony, "The pain will knock some sense into me, so I won't act like an animal and lose control of myself.""I see…" Stunned, Renee was moved to tears. She understood why he cut himself. Surprisingly, he wanted to stay sober and not be controlled by the drug in the wine.He could have used her to satisfy his desire, and she would never b

"You're playing with fire!" Justin leaned close to Renee's ears and said fiercely, "What do you think there is in the wine? Maybe I'm not someone who will take liberty on women, but I can't promise that the wine won't make me so." "So, you're saying that the wine…" Suddenly, Renee realized the wine was not as simple as she thought. She also understood why Rose had behaved in such a mysterious manner. "Stay…away from me!" Suddenly, she became frightened and wanted to keep some distance from Justin. She knew that people could not be trusted completely, especially under the effects of chemical reactions. Things would certainly get out of control. Justin probably did not want to do anything to her, but both of them would lose their minds under the effect of the wine and do something that would fill them with regret. The only way to prevent such an incident was to avoid each other."You want to stay away from me, but it's too late now. I'm no saint. I'm just a normal guy!"Just

"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
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2399
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 Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2398
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
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2395
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
