The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1539
Xavier happened to hear their conversation outside the ward, and he rolled his eyes as he walked in with a golden velvet cake he had just bought. "What's the good of eating apples? They're cold and bad for your teeth... This, on the other hand, is a golden velvet cake I bought for you after much effort and lining up." Xavier stood between Santiago and Leia before handing the cake to Leia. Although Leia scowled at Xavier, she had actually been craving that famous golden velvet cake, so she didn't reject it. Besides, the chef that made the golden velvet cake only made three of them a day, and they could only be bought if the person was sincere enough. Leia had tried lining up several times and begged the chef for ages, but hadn't managed to get it. Somehow, Xavier had managed to get it, which meant he had probably put a lot of effort into it."Apples are nutritious, and that cake is too sweet. Lei is recovering now, so she can't have too much sugar." With a cold expression, Santiago s

Xavier's words made the atmosphere tense, and Leia felt like she was going to go crazy with the two men constantly fighting over her. Furious, she typed a message on her phone and showed it to Xavier and Santiago. "You two don't have to come and take care of me from tomorrow onwards. I don't want to see either of you.""I'm sorry, Lei, it's my fault. I shouldn't have forced you." Santiago immediately apologized to Leia. His innocent gaze made him look like a college student, and it could soften any woman's heart. The brash Xavier knew he couldn't win against that boyish face. He gritted his teeth and glared at Santiago, muttering, "Sissy boy!" However, Santiago didn't get mad, and just hung his head sadly. "I'm sorry, Mr. Stuart. I know I should be friendly towards people who love Lei sincerely, but I'm very much into her. My possessiveness got the better of me and I said something rude. I'll go now; I don't want to make Lei unhappy.""Stop pretending! You're just faking it for b

Leia broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly typed out, "I heard that people will do bizarre things when they wake up from general anesthesia. How did I embarrass myself that day? I can't remember a thing.""Do you really want to know?" Santiago smiled and asked.Leia quickly nodded."Forget it. I'm worried you'll get embarrassed if you know." Santiago had recorded Leia's reaction with his phone that day because he found it very memorable. After meeting so many insincere people, he found a simple and honest woman like Leia to be rare. Even if her cuteness was not because of him, he wanted to keep it as a memory for the rest of his life. "No, tell me how crazy I was!" Leia put her hands together and pleaded with Santiago, hoping he would tell her. She had watched such a video before and found it very funny. Maybe she'd learn about her inner self. "Okay, I'll show you." Santiago fished out his phone and showed Leia the video he took that day. Eagerly, Leia clicked on the video.

Leia left the hospital after she had recovered a week later, and the first person she wanted to see was Renee. She still couldn't speak because her throat was recovering, so she had been texting Renee, but Renee hadn't replied to any of her texts. This worried Leia, so she wanted to go to Renee's house the instant she was discharged. As Leia left the hospital, Santiago and Xavier were right by her side. "Let's go. I want to go to Renee's house too. It's on the way." Xavier immediately took Leia's luggage as if he were her boyfriend, but Leia snatched it back, typed something on her phone, then showed it to Xavier angrily. "Didn't I ask you to stay away from me? I don't want to see you.""Just close your eyes if you don't want to see me." After that, Xavier shot a snide look at Santiago. "You don't have to go since they're our friends; it'll only be awkward if you go." "Leia should be the one who decides that. It's not up to you, Mr. Stuart." Santiago ignored Xavier and looked at Lei

Leia couldn't understand what was going on. She felt as if she was in a world where she had to choose between Xavier and Santiago, and everyone had an opinion on her choice. When the cab arrived, she hurried into it and closed the door, breathing a sigh of relief. The driver was a young man. He stared at Leia in the rearview mirror for a while before he asked calmly, "Aren't you Miss Osborne from The Choice of Love? The show is pretty good, so why did they stop it? Didn't a sea snake bite you? Are you discharged now?"Leia smiled politely even though she felt like jumping out of the car. How had a typical reality show like theirs become so popular? It felt like everyone had watched it at this point."I like Xavier best. It was hilarious watching him help that pig deliver her babies; he really is talented! But who do you like the best? Who did you pick in the end? I think Xavier suits you better. Maybe he can even help you give birth in the future. Haha!" The driver laughed heartily

After spending some time together, both of them started to feel a little bored."Ren, do you want to walk around the nearby garden? A lot of things have changed around here. At first, there were plans to build a factory here, but the residents protested and decided to make it a habitable neighborhood. They even built a wetland park nearby, and it's really pretty..." After typing those words, Leia suddenly realized that Renee couldn't see. Feeling sad, she changed the words and turned her text into a voice message. "Ren, let's take a walk at the wetland park nearby. The weather is nice.""Sure!" Renee quickly agreed. She found it rather boring staying at home all day, and had wanted someone to accompany her outside. Hence, Leia took Renee to the nearby wetland park. There was a large man-made lake in the center of the park with reeds around it, and many popular streamers went there to take photos. Both Renee and Leia didn't like crowded places, so they picked an isolated spot at a b

Leia had only been there for twenty minutes, but she had already cursed Stefan and all his family members.After sensing Leia's anger, Renee lost the courage to tell her that she had reconciled with Stefan. Quickly, she changed the topic. "How about you? How's it going with your reality show? Who did you fall for in the end?" "Ugh, why did you have to bring that up?" Leia sniffed and picked up another orange to peel."I only watched one or two episodes, but it's obvious that Xavier and Santiago have feelings for you. Are you not sure who to pick?" Renee was also curious about Leia's choice. "Everyone's asking me the same thing. I must be cursed…" Leia sighed unhappily, unable to escape the question. Unconsciously, she began to wonder who she liked more."Ren, who do you think… I should choose?" Leia always listened to Renee, and hoped Renee would give her the right answer. "Tell me who I should choose. I'll listen to you.""Stop messing around. This is a big deal, so why are yo

"Of course, it's different!" Renee said seriously, "It's different because Stefan is the only man I love. No matter who likes me, I'll only pick Stefan… but you're different. You're moved by Santiago, but you're addicted to Xavier. Seems to me like you want them both!" "Haha! You're right. You saw through me!" Leia couldn't deny it, and smiled awkwardly. She had never known why she couldn't choose, but now it just seemed like she was being fickle and greedy."So, face your heart. Don't run from it. Isn't it nice to have both of them? If I could love more than one man, I would have many lovers by now," Renee said jokingly."You're right—I should be more open-minded. Well, I'm not conflicted anymore." Enlightened, Leia started typing on her phone. "Well, men always have the advantage in relationships because it's women who have to give birth and suffer through periods. We even have to take care of our in-laws and kids, work well, and be cautious of homewreckers. Women suffer a lot, b

"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?" Silence washed over Renee as she kept her head bowed. It was a silent approval.Justin burst into reckless laughter, which was scary. He looked down at his cut wound and laughed pathetically. "This is why he could make you fall in love with him, and I couldn't. I'm too cultured compared to him.""Don't say that, Haze!"Seeing how defeated Justin was, Renee became uneasy. "It isn't written in the stars for us. Plus, I've fallen in love with Stefan a long time ago before I even got to know you. I also rely on him physically and psychologically. I can't control my feelings. It's not something we can change. We…" "Stop!" Heartbroken, Justin pushed away everything in front of him and s

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 room closely and found that it was a wedding room as Justin had mentioned. Everything was set up according to her preferences, which she had occasionally mentioned to Justin. For example, she loved keeping some ceramic ornaments on the bedside cabinet and hanging some seashell wind chimes at the windows. The entire room was painted in beige and green, which were her favorites, too. Beige gave a sense of warmth, while green gave a sense of gloominess. All of those details became the perfect wedding room for Renee.If everything went on smoothly, she would spend most of her time there, and he would be her life companion. Unfortunately, there were no ifs in the world.Renee handed the gla

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

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
