Chapter 1321

Author: Mizuki Sei
Someone carried Leia out of the pond and into the house. She heard the door creak, and then she was gently lowered down.

"Eh, Mr. Dalton, where did you take me to? Did you take me to a room? Well, I feel quite shy since we're alone in a room. Haha!" She closed her eyes and stood there obediently. Although she claimed that she was shy, she could not suppress her smile.

'Oh, my goodness! This is the idol I've admired for so many years. I'd be more than happy to be in the same room with him even

  • The Untouchable Ex-Wife   Chapter 2750

    "W-What?"Renee froze. That came as a complete shock to her. Her mind went blank, and her body felt numb."You heard that right. Our mother and your ex-husband's father were once deeply in love!"Quinton snorted. He felt equal parts bitterness and resignation. "This was what I meant when I said fate played tricks on humans. Their relationship changed the entire course of my life. I've spent years trying not to hate them, but for a long time, I couldn't. At the same time, I know I can't keep hating them!"His clenched fists slowly loosened as he spoke. The rage that consumed him gradually gave way to acceptance.Renee was still reeling from the revelation. Her expression only grew more bewildered. "But how would their relationship affect your life? Are you saying the reason you were taken as a baby had something to do with that?""Jealousy can make a woman do terrible things. The reason I was taken traces back to your former mother-in-law."Quinton clenched his jaw. He was st

    Renee thought back to the way her parents had interacted with each other. Their relationship had always seemed harmonious. Her father adored her mother. He treated her like the most precious thing in the world, protecting and cherishing her in every way.Her mother seemed to love him too. She rarely argued with him and never made unreasonable demands.Their marriage reminded Renee of those old-fashioned arranged marriages between well-matched families. It wasn't passionate or dramatic, but there was mutual respect, companionship, and devotion.Still, something always felt missing, but she couldn't explain exactly what it was."From the way you're describing it, they weren't really in love at all. It sounds more like they were maintaining appearances and playing the role of a loving couple, doesn't it?"Quinton cut straight to the point.If that was true, then everything Stefan had told him made much more sense.His mother had already given her heart to someone she could never fo

    Quinton was silent for a long time before finally nodding.He knew that, given Renee's relentless curiosity, there was no way he could keep hiding the truth.Besides, as far as he was concerned, he and Renee shared a special bond. They had spent nine months together in their mother's womb. They were connected in a way no one else could understand. There shouldn't have been any barriers between them.Since Stefan had chosen to be completely honest with him, perhaps he had already accepted that this secret would no longer remain a secret."So what's the story behind this painting? Tell me already!"Renee's eyes sparkled with anticipation.She had expected her brother to eventually open up to her, but she never imagined he would give in so easily. It felt like she had suddenly uncovered a hidden treasure.In a way, when someone who had been kept in the dark for so long finally had access to the truth, wasn't that its own kind of treasure?"How much do you really know about Mom and

    Renee wasn't dumb. She could hear the hidden meaning behind Stefan's words about 'real damage' and Quinton's remark about fate playing tricks on people.Maybe they were talking about the same thing. Maybe both of them already knew the truth. She was the only one still being kept in the dark. To her, following their lead and living according to their choices felt even worse than being a fool."W-What do you mean? Fate playing tricks on people? It's just an expression."Quinton took a step back. He couldn't bring himself to meet her gaze. He felt like a criminal being interrogated."Quinton, stop treating me like I'm dumb, will you? What exactly are you and Stefan hiding from me? If he won't tell me, fine. But are you really going to keep secrets from me too? I'm your sister. Your twin sister. We spent nine months in the same womb together!"Renee pressed forward, alternating between reason and emotion as she chipped away at Quinton's defenses.Just as she'd said, Stefan might be i

    "What are you two talking about?"Quinton walked over. His gaze shifted back and forth between Renee and Stefan. He was trying to catch signs of unusual behavior.Clearly, the three of them were like people from different planets. Each carried their own secrets, and each held firmly to their own convictions. None of them would let the others see through them so easily."Nothing much."Renee smiled as if she had just switched her social media privacy settings to 'close friends only'. She had no intention of letting Quinton know about the complicated conversation she just had with Stefan."Nothing, really. I just told her to…"Stefan trailed off and looked up at the moon. Moments ago it had been bright and full, but now half of it was hidden behind drifting clouds, like a girl concealing her thoughts. It was also a reminder that the night had grown very late."Get a good night's sleep."Stefan let out a long sigh. The way he looked at Renee was gentle yet full of sorrow."That's

    After saying that, Stefan turned around and walked away. He left Quinton standing there in confusion.As far as Quinton was concerned, he was the greatest victim of this family tragedy. He had endured every injustice and every hardship. He hated every member of the Hunt family from the bottom of his heart.Yet he also knew how important Stefan and the entire Hunt family were to Renee. For her sake, he had been willing to force himself to let go of his pain and hatred. It was all so she could finally have the happy ending she deserved.Now, the person who had seemingly started all of this was the one refusing reconciliation. Not only was he refusing it, but he apparently harbored even deeper resentment."Could there really be another tragedy? Something even worse than what happened to me?"Quinton had wanted to confront Stefan and demand answers, but as he watched him walk away, somehow looking lonelier and more defeated than ever, he found himself affected by that sorrow. He subco

    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 win

    Time passed by. Gradually, the pain knocked some sense into Justin. He no longer wanted to take advantage of Renee."Let me get you some water." Renee had no idea what she could do for Justin. After some contemplation, she got to her feet and poured him a glass of water.Finally, she studied the ro

    "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 wo

    "I don't know how to tell you. I'm sure you can understand." Renee could not bring herself to say more because it was a humiliating privacy. She might as well keep it to herself."Let me guess…" Justin's gaze grew sharp as he went straight to the point. "The man in your story is Stefan, isn't it?
