Chapter 1537

Author: Mizuki Sei
However, Renee knew that something must be troubling Tess, so she didn't want to ask her anything further.

In the afternoon, Margaret came home with the two children, and Tess clocked out of work. Tess carried her bag and walked on the empty street with a troubled mind. Every step she took felt heavy. When she reached the door of her house, someone blocked her way.

"Did you do what I asked you to?" The woman wore black clothes and a large hat that hid more than half of her scarred face.

"I did what you asked. When are you going to let my mother go?" Tess sobbed as she begged the woman.

"Keep doing it. I'll let your mother go in ten days." The woman grabbed Tess' collar and threatened her, "Don't you dare play any tricks, you hear? Your mother is doomed if you miss a day or add a lower dosage. Do you understand?"

"Y-Yes." Tess swallowed and dared not disobey her. Only then did the woman let her go, and turned to leave.

"Wait!" Tess stopped her.

"What do you want?"

  • The Untouchable Ex-Wife   Chapter 2687

    "I don't think you realize how serious it is. She's not going to stand here and look at you forever. She's going to change."Xavier grew agitated. He punched the table and said indignantly, "She's a human being with individual thoughts and feelings. She'll feel pain and be sad. You keep turning her down. It's repetitive torture. Even if she won't go, her patience will one day be depleted. She won't keep loving you!"The previous conversation with Renee made Xavier realize how desperate and disappointed Renee was. Renee persuaded him not to lose Leia. Of course, she was trying to persuade Stefan not to lose her. However, Renee did not dare to say that to Stefan face-to-face out of her dignity as a woman. As Stefan's best friend, Xavier felt it necessary to help Renee transmit the message. "You're not clear about our situation. So, I have nothing better to say. It's fine even if she's changed. I sincerely hope that she can change," Stefan said, heartbroken. "Why can't you make

    After that, Renee turned and left. She knew that Leia loved Xavier deeper than Xavier loved Leia. Hence, Leia would be more heartbroken because of that breakup and needed Renee more. Xavier stood where he was. After a long contemplation, he immediately called Stefan. Renee was right. If she could not forget about him, she should not let him go. Xavier decided to save those words for Stefan. At that moment, Xavier finally understood something. He and Stefan were friends who were as close as brothers. But similarly, they were all cowards in their romances. He would not lose Leia, and he did not want Stefan to lose Renee either.Both Stefan and Xavier were sitting in a high-end booth in a bar. After listening to Xavier's persuasion, Stefan calmly drank some wine and said, "Is this why you urgently called me late at night and asked me to come here?""What's with this look? Don't you agree with this?" Xavier felt perturbed to see Stefan's indifferent look. He felt sorry for

    "Yes!" Xavier was amused to see Renee's shocked expression. "You're my only sister-in-law in the world." "Stop exaggerating. Your buddy has lots of lovers. I'm sure you'll have a lot of sister-in-laws. And I…no longer have anything to do with him," Renee joked.She knew that Stefan had many admirers. Previously, she was bothered by it. However, she was now fine with it. It was an objective fact that he was admired by a lot of women, and it was none of her business. It would not affect anything whether she cared about it or not."To me, you're the only one. No other women have the right to be my sister-in-law," Xavier said seriously. But in the past, he had always been unsupportive of their romance. He did not think it would end well. As time passed, many things happened between them. As an outsider, he found their romance very rare and precious. "No one will love you deeper than him in this world, and no one will love him better than you. You guys are a perfect match, destine

    Renee found that scene very familiar.Similarly, Stefan broke up with her. He was worried that he might hurt her and wanted to see her happy. Those words sounded great, but were nonsense.Initially, Renee tried to see things objectively and felt that there might be some problems between Leia and Xavier. However, their circumstances were different. Renee was certain that Xavier was the one at fault here. Leia was just like many other women, including Renee, who were innocent and pitiful. They got dumped. "I've got only one question for you…" Renee looked at Xavier icily and went straight to the point. "What's the reason behind this breakup? Is it an objective or subjective reason?""What do you mean?" Xavier couldn't understand Renee. He wondered why a breakup seemed that complicated to her."The examples of objective reasons are families, profits, or past issues. You're forced to leave each other even though you love each other. But a subjective reason is much simpler. Frankl

    Xavier stood there, completely at a loss.He rarely saw Leia cry. In his memory, she was always bright and full of energy, someone who stayed positive no matter what. She almost never shed tears.The few times she had cried, every single one of them had been because of him.When he thought about it that way, the guilt hit hard. He had never protected her or given her the happiness she deserved. Instead, he had brought her pain and trouble, again and again.This was a breakup he had brought on himself.He opened his hand slightly, forcing himself to suppress the urge to go comfort Leia.Renee watched the awkward tension between them and groaned, wincing at how frustrating it was. She kept giving Xavier subtle looks.When her subtle looks didn't work, she mouthed a strict command, "Go on! Comfort her!"But Xavier had made up his mind. He didn't want to cause Leia any more pain, so he stayed rooted where he was and refused to move.In the end, Leia said nothing and walked straigh

    Leia quickly wiped her tears away and said casually, "I ran into something disgusting. It stung my eyes.""Something disgusting?"Renee's expression turned serious at once. "That so-called mastermind bullied you?"Leia scoffed. "As if he could. I was the one who taught him a lesson. Anyway, it's all over now. Let's go."She didn't want things to spiral. More than that, she didn't want Renee to know that the so-called mastermind was her boyfriend. No, her ex-boyfriend."Something's off."Renee looked at the tears that had not quite dried on Leia's face, and her worries deepened. She grabbed Leia's hand, her tone firm."Tell me what really happened. You're not someone who cries easily. I can count the number of times I've seen you cry on one hand. Whoever it was must have done something awful.""It's really nothing," Leia insisted. "Do I look like someone who'd let herself be bullied? Come on, let's go."She truly didn't want Renee to know about her breakup with Xavier. First,
