The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1295
"Get lost!" Leia knew that he could never speak nicely. After she drove him out of the room, she quickly locked the door. She was a bit tired after the shower, so she decided to rest early that night.She had to battle against Shirley the next day.Leia woke up a few hours later, and felt rather sorry for him. She opened the door, and as expected, saw him squatting outside the door pitifully. He looked like a homeless puppy."You're awake?" Xavier looked up, his eyes watery.Leia looked at him, half expecting him to burst into tears. She sighed and said, "Forget it. Go and sleep in the room. I'll sleep in the cow shed." After all, she was a tough woman. She could handle sleeping in the cowshed, but it was cruel to ask a rich young heir like Xavier to sleep there."Thanks!" Xavier did not hesitate at all, and dashed into the room eagerly. Gone was his pitiful act and puppy dog eyes.'Leia Osborne, you're a fool! He tricked you!' Leia cursed silently as she returned to the room to

Leia stopped Xavier from going further, and said quietly, "If you do this, I'll just be like all the other women you've dated. You'll just use me to sate your lust, and leave me when you get bored. It makes me feel cheap."They had said that during their previous fight. She knew that it had been said out of spite, but her heart ached every time she thought about it."But I'll never get bored of you..." Xavier murmured hoarsely. He closed his eyes and touched her skin, allowing his instincts to guide him. He had to admit that even though their relationship wasn't deep, their bodies were compatible. He didn't want to give her up so easily because of that."You're still talking nonsense. Don't you realize that it matters to me? Don't you think you should discuss it with me? Or am I just a tool to you, so you feel you don't have to waste your time talking to me?" Unable to stand it, Leia pushed him away and asked him, her eyes watery. She was reluctant to accept that they had broken u

Leia was enraged by his response. She grabbed a blanket and pillow then stormed off towards the cowshed. 'Hmph! I'd rather sleep with cows than with a scumbag like you!' She gritted her teeth as she thought so. However, when she arrived at the cowshed, she found that the rich smell of cows, cow manure, and grass was too much for her. She soon returned to the room. At the moment, Xavier was sound asleep."Sleep on the floor, damn it!" Leia threw the blanket and pillow on him before she kicked him onto the floor. Satisfied, she got onto the bed.Xavier was sleeping soundly, but woke up with a start as he landed on the floor. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and crawled back into bed, then hugged her and said, "Baby, stop messing around!"He dozed off again, and Leia was at a loss for words. She wanted to kick him away but he hugged her like they were a couple who had made up with each other after a fight. She couldn't bear to kick him away either. "Forget it. What an ill-fated relationsh

Adam was put in a dilemma but he gritted his teeth and said, "It's fine. We'll resolve it. We'll build a new house now. I think it'll be done when we shoot the next season of Happy Days, so we'll invite you as a guest then."Xavier waved. "Alright, carry on with your work. I'm too busy to join a variety show.""Yeah, I overlooked that. You must be very busy, so you can't join such a childish thing. I should have watched my tongue." Adam's flattery filled Leia with discomfort. Flattering and bullying in the entertainment circle were indeed quite bold and outrageous. She recalled watching the interesting highlights of the behind-the-scenes of Happy Days. The celebrities also fawned over Adam, and at that time, she felt that he was an upright man and different from the other celebrities.Unexpectedly, everyone in the entertainment circle was realistic about building connections. When Leia saw Adam turn to leave, she immediately asked, "Mr. Jiminez, can I ask you a question?" Adam s

A tinge of panic crept into Shirley's eyes, but she was an actress who had undergone professional training, so she soon regained her wits. "Oh, that... Yes, I seem to have contacted him because I needed to get my skin booster again, so I made an appointment with him in advance. Miss Osborne, do you need it too? I can recommend him to you." She lifted her chin and smiled at Leia, but the provocation was clear. "Stop pretending. You know it isn't as simple as that." Leia was so angry that she rushed to Shirley to confront her."Miss Osborne, please behave yourself. Shirley is a celebrity, so please keep some distance from her." The agent extended her hand to block Shirley from Leia.Shirley looked at Xavier and sneered, "I didn't expect your taste to be this... special." "What do you mean? Speak clearly!" Leia demanded, sensing that Shirley was mocking her."Mr. Jiminez, didn't you say we were about to start shooting? Why is everyone still standing here?" Shirley ignored Leia as

Leia now realized that Xavier had the final say here."Do you want me to say yes?" Xavier immediately understood Leia's intense look, and smiled mischievously at her."Of course!" Leia gritted her teeth and whispered in his ear, "You know why we came, so we have to keep an eye on Shirley at all times to find the truth as soon as possible.""What's in it for me if I agree?" "What do you want?" Leia clenched her fists angrily. 'Even at a time like this, that scumbag still wants to take advantage of me. How inhumane!'"Not much... I just want you to obey me for the next few days." Xavier pouted at her and whined, "You bullied me so much the past few days, it really broke my heart…"Leia cursed inwardly but forced a smile onto her face. "You want me to listen to you? Sure, you're the king here now, so everyone will listen to you!""That's right!" Xavier touched Leia's head in satisfaction as if he was petting an animal. Everyone saw how they whispered to each other like a young c

A videographer followed the group with a camera, recording all of their actions and words.Adam sat in the studio, watching everything. At first, he was worried that the episode might be ruined, and even decided to shoot another episode after Xavier and Leia left. However, both Xavier and Leia were surprisingly interesting, especially Leia. She was a tough woman with tons of energy, and she looked like Xavier's significant other given the latter's arrogant, germophobic, and weak nature. As an outsider, he began to ship their romance too."Yes, get more footage of them! That's exactly what I want. I'm sure it'll be popular when it's broadcasted." Adam held a walkie-talkie and excitedly ordered the frontline filming staff. He had been a director for many popular variety shows, so he could tell at a glance what kinds of scenes would be liked or disliked.The first three episodes of Shirley had nothing interesting to show for, so he figured that this season would be ruined. But now, it

Goosebumps prickled Leia's skin, and she immediately pulled her hand away. "Yeah, I'm sure you know this place well. After all, you sleep in town at night, and even ask the local villagers to carry you out of the village. Of course, you'll know the place."Shirley's expression turned livid. "Miss, are you making a joke? I didn't do that. I sleep in the village at night.""Ah, so what if you sleep in town? You don't have to hide it. You're an actress, so I'm sure you just want to memorize your script in a better place. I'm sure the audience can understand your situation!" Leia criticized Shirley, but none of the camera crew tried to stop her. On the contrary, they became quite excited because they were annoyed by Shirley putting on airs. They had to wake up early in the morning and they had to spend a long time waiting for her to come back to the village from town. It was ridiculous!Previously, no one had dared to say anything about it, but unexpectedly, the new guest was pretty bol

Renee could do nothing else but watch Sabre take Jovan away. "Don't worry. They can't do anything to me. I won't be worried since I'll be staying here. And I'll wait for your good news."Renee flexed her fingers and suddenly regretted everything. She knew Austin would not easily forgive them when Jovan insisted on going to the Baldwin residence with her. But at that moment, she was worried about Justin since he might be in grave danger. She could not accept it either because Jovan was too weak to soldier through any torture. She had no idea what to do if he failed to soldier through. She might never forgive herself."Grandpa Baldwin…" Renee took a deep breath and did not give up trying to beg Austin's mercy."You don't have to say too much," Austin sneered. "You'd better worry about yourself or your family. Did you forget that your brother and kids are still in my hands? Can you worry about too many people?" "Don't hurt them!" Renee almost lost her mind when she heard that.

"Mr. Hunt, please leave." Sabre kept a long face, his tone calm."I just came, but you made me leave. That's inappropriate!" Jovan looked at Sabre and refused to budge. He did not want to stay, but found Austin acting weird. He wondered if Austin wanted to use a more cruel means to torture Renee after driving him away. If he left, he would have escaped, but he could not imagine what Renee might face. Naturally, he refused to leave. "What else do you want?" Austin looked solemn and dangerous. He coldly added, "If you think you need to be punished, I'll grant your wish." He looked at Sabre, who quickly put Jovan under control."No, you got me wrong…!" Jovan did not expect Austin to turn hostile. He wanted to struggle free, but Sabre was one of Austin's rare confidantes and could fight well. He easily stopped Jovan from moving. Anxiety gripped Renee when she saw that. She immediately begged for Austin's mercy. "Grandpa Baldwin! Jovan is a crazy and childish man, like you
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2385
Renee's heart was well guarded. No one else could win her over except Stefan. Justin had tried hard and was once hopeful. But in the end, it was still futile. He ended up with endless humiliation. Hence, he learned from Renee and was on guard against others. He merely did not want to get hurt or feel disappointed."That's it. You can be the bold hero yourself."Justin swung off Jovan's hand and left."Damn! He's quite heartless too, just like Stefan!" Jovan was angry for no reason. He found it a pity since Justin had given Renee up, just like what Stefan had done. Those men claimed to love her but did not choose her firmly, and left at the most critical moment. After Justin was gone, the atmosphere in the room became more dangerous and stressful.Austin coldly stared at Renee and asked contemptuously, "My grandson is gone. Can you stop pretending?"It was hard to imagine such a scene. Austin once doted on Renee as if she were his granddaughter. But now, he regarded her as

"Oh, you're quite serious about it." Austin faked a smile, then addressed a subordinate standing beside him. "Since you insisted, I'll grant your wish." In a while, his subordinate came with a tray with dozens of needles in various shapes. Most of the needles were used for treatment. The needle would cause quite a lot of pain with only a slight jab. "Okay, let's stop joking. We're considered famous people. Stop using such a childish trick! It's embarrassing…" Jovan realized how serious the situation was. While teasing, he rebuked Austin's subordinate so the latter would remove the needles. However, the subordinate did not heed Jovan. He did not take Jovan seriously at all. Austin's subordinate politely extended his hand and coldly urged Renee, "Please go ahead, Ms. Everheart." "Okay." Renee flexed her fingers and took a deep breath. She swallowed and adjusted her mouth, ready herself to take a needle."Hey, moron! Are you going to sit there and watch?" Helpless, Jovan tried

Jovan cleared his throat and assumed his usual casual demeanor. "I lost my mind on the day of the engagement ceremony. I knocked Renee out and took her away. This incident has nothing to do with her. You guys can blame me. I should be the one to hang myself, too.""Jovan!" Renee glared at Jovan. "Don't take the blame for me. I won't thank you, either."Jovan turned and started arguing with Renee. "No, I'm not taking the blame for you. I was just telling the truth. I did knock you out and take you away that day. You didn't leave on your own!"He felt guilty toward Renee, especially when he saw her lying in bed and using an iron wire to cut her wrist so she could run away. It was a great shock to him.He realized he had nearly ruined her, body and soul. At that moment, he no longer wanted to compete for her. He felt that he might as well let her go and grant her wish. He just wanted her to be safe and happy, regardless of who she chose to be with.His greatest wish was to see her
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2382
Both Renee and Jovan finally arrived at the Baldwin residence under Sabre's escort.Austin was waiting in the tea room since he knew Renee was coming."I'm sorry, Grandpa Baldwin. I'm here to apologize to you." Sabre pushed them into the room.After entering the room, Renee realized that Justin was there too, sitting on Austin's left and pouring tea for Austin. Justin was no longer enthusiastic and close to Renee. Instead, he kept his head low and was busy. He did not even look at her, as if they did not know each other. "You want to apologize to me?" Austin sneered. He raised a cup of tea and sipped it. "Stop flattering me. Plus… You shouldn't be apologizing to me."Justin stopped what he was doing, but he was still unresponsive. He stared absent-mindedly ahead as if he were away from reality. He seemed like a different man. Renee had never seen this side of him, which filled her with sadness and guilt. She blamed herself for turning a carefree and bright youth into a gloo
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2381
"Cut the crap!" Sabre was a man who had undergone a lot of things and problems all year round. He abruptly gripped Jovan's chin and said coldly, "You can't keep your head for long. You'd better not waste your energy, and you should watch your tongue.""Well, there's something I should say." Jovan didn't resist as he grabbed the chance to touch Sabre's face. "What's your name, dude? Why are you doing this job at such a young age? How much did Austin pay you every month? I'll give you ten times your salary. Just betray him and work for me.""I'm going to kill you!" Sabre was always a serious man, and got furious because of Jovan's words. He was about to slap Jovan before Renee immediately stopped him."Don't do this, Sabre. Let's talk it out. He's the vice president of Hunt Enterprise, but you wanted to slap him. We should keep peace. Plus, he generally never watches his tongue, and he scolds his family more fiercely. Don't take him seriously." Renee tried her best to calm Sabre dow

"I'll come even if you don't welcome me. Bye." Renee hung up. She knew that Justin resented her and feared that Austin might punish her. Regardless, he could not stop her from going to North City. She understood that no one could be at ease if the issue was unresolved. She was the cause of the conflict—the key factor. Thus, she must go there.Finally, the plane took off. Renee fell into thoughts while watching the dense clouds. Jovan sat beside her and noticed her worry. He wanted to hold her hand to comfort her and give her strength. However, his hand stopped in midair. He decided against holding her hand. He knew that she did not need his consolation or reassurance. Instead, she would only resent him."Don't worry. It's going to be okay." Jovan sounded casual. "I'm the culprit and will be blamed. You don't have to be scared."Renee turned and frowned at him. "I don't want to see you in danger, either."Jovan looked serious before he beamed. "Well, I'll risk my life for
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2379
Hence, Renee did not beat around the bush or refuse to answer Jovan's question on purpose. She had no idea what her heart wanted and could only see how things went."What?" Jovan narrowed his eyes, wearing a complex expression. The current situation gave him a great sense of danger. He teased, "It looks like I've underestimated that guy. He can end up your man though he's your fallback guy.""Can't you watch your tongue?" Renee became angry as she stuffed a piece of cake into his mouth. "Eat something and stop talking."At that time, her phone rang. Justin did call her back—just like what Jovan had said. Renee quickly picked it up, sounding anxious. "Justin, why didn't you answer my calls? I called you several times!""What's the matter?" Justin sounded extremely icy. Renee had never seen him act that way—it felt unreal. She said carefully, "I want to ask where you are now.""What's the matter?" Justin kept his cold demeanor and repeated the same question without saying anythi
