The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1553
"That's different. People will change." Renee had finished her bath at some point, and put a bathroom on as she left the room. She heard Xavier and Leia criticizing Stefan from the second floor, and was determined to defend her beloved. The three of them looked up as she appeared, and when they saw Renee, their faces lit up."Ren, why did you come out alone? Wait there, I'll come help you." Stefan rushed upstairs, treating Renee like a newborn.Both Leia and Xavier also treated Renee carefully, and didn't dare say anything harsh to her."Ren, how are you feeling now? Are you feeling sick or unhappy?" Stefan guided Renee to sit in the living room, and Leia quickly went over and held Renee's arms in concern."No, I'm fine. Well, I've bumped into a lot of things. It's just a prank by some childish people. It's no big deal." Renee patted the back of Leia's hand and tried to reassure her. "You shouldn't take it to heart, or you'll be the one suffering. Remember—people like this don't ma

"You want me to do something?" Renee smiled mysteriously, then told Xavier, "If I were you, I'd seek justice for Leia whether or not it had anything to do with Shirley. Your beloved was humiliated, but instead of fighting for her, you wanted her to compromise. It means you don't love her at all.""Renee, don't make this worse. Everyone handles things differently. Is it wise to create a bigger mess just for the sake of revenge?" Xavier did not expect such an answer from an open-minded person like Renee. Was she trying to make Xavier and Leia's relationship worse?"You still don't understand." Renee shook her head and continued, "It's not about the outcome—it's about your attitude. It would upset any woman.""I..." Xavier scratched his head, in a dilemma. Why did loving someone have to be so hard?"Ren, you know me so well." Leia typed out, practically in tears as she hugged Renee. Only women understood such feelings; men would only find them pretentious. Leia couldn't stop crying, h

Xavier frowned in confusion. "I can't believe my ears. Do you mean we have to do whatever women say? You're the most indifferent and overbearing man in Beach City, so how could you be so submissive around your wife? It's not like you at all." Although Xavier had experience in pursuing women, his ways were vastly different from Stefan's. He would buy them gifts and sweet-talk them to win their hearts, but no woman had ever owned his heart and mind. If a woman tried to control him, he would break up with her without any hesitation. Even if it was Leia, he would not compromise when it came to his principles, which was why they were always fighting."I've wasted many years to come to this conclusion. Yes, we'll go through many things in our lives, but the key is to figure out what's most important to you. If you think your principles are more important than your relationship with her, you can give her up." Stefan was unusually patient as he tried to teach a playboy like Xavier a lesson in

Both Renee and Leia were having a deep conversation upstairs.At first, Leia was crying silently but to her surprise, she suddenly could speak again. "Ah, I can speak! Finally!" Leia wiped away her tears and hugged Renee happily. "Ren, my throat is cured! I'm sure your eyes can be cured too. Don't worry, I'll find you suitable eyes. It's only a matter of time before you can see again!""Great! Well, I'm just glad you got your voice back. If not, we'll be worse off than those wretched fans." Renee was happy for Leia. She and Leia hadn't been able to fight back that morning mainly because Leia had lost her voice. She, Liam, and Leia had been a tight-knit group since university because they all had their own roles—Renee was the violent one, Liam was the smart one, and Leia was the eloquent one. However, now that Renee was blind, she could no longer attack others, and Leia hadn't been able to argue either because she had lost her voice. It had made them an easy target for those crazed fa

"A breakthrough?" "Yes, a point of realization for you both that will finally make the both of you choose each other." Renee hoped they could reach that point because both she and Stefan had experienced it too. She knew full well how terrible it felt to be trapped in an ambiguous relationship; Leia and Xavier would only realize that they were meant for each other after going through hardships together.As the night went on, Renee and Leia's conversations grew deeper. Leia had spoken a lot, and after a while, she fell asleep with tears on her cheeks. However, Renee couldn't fall asleep because she felt like this was just the calm before the storm...What she didn't know was that Jovan's car was parked outside the manor.The street lights illuminated Jovan's face as he sat in the car, bathing half of his face in light and the other in darkness. It reflected his current state well—he never knew if he was a good person or a bad one. He had been waiting for a long time outside the mano

"A mini tracker?" Impressed, Stefan gave her a thumbs-up. "That's pretty amazing—I didn't even know you did it. You're better than those secret agents in the movies.""Of course! I'm better than them, so you'd better appreciate me. Treat me badly and you'll suffer the consequences," Renee said smugly."I wouldn't dare. I'll be loyal to you for the rest of my life.""That's more like it! Good boy." Renee patted his head indulgently and muttered, "It's freezing. Hurry up and carry me to bed. I want to sleep." After spending a few days together, she had gotten used to hugging him in bed. It was probably the reason why she couldn't sleep, and so she had sought him out."Come here. I've warmed the bed for you," Stefan said gently and led her to bed. It was the best thing in the world to have a warm bed on a cold night. Renee curled up on her side while Stefan hugged her from behind. She felt safe and warm in his arms, and after a while, she started to feel sleepy. However, Stefan's

If Jovan managed to bribe Timothy, Stefan would have less power in the Hunt family, and would be considered inferior to Jovan. Stefan's head started to hurt at the thought of it, but he didn't tell Renee about it because he didn't want her to suffer with him. "It's more than enough to have you and the kids. Nothing else is important... Just sleep!" Stefan sighed heavily and whispered.Renee heard the underlying disappointment in his tone, and started to worry. She wanted to help him.Stefan planned to go to Hunt Enterprise early the next morning while Leia stayed in the manor to help take care of Renee."Don't take her out again. I won't forgive you if yesterday's incident happens again," Stefan told Leia firmly before he left."Fine, I won't take her out, but don't worry even if I do because my throat is cured. If anyone dares to bully me, I'll scold them," Leia promised as she drank a glass of milk.Stefan stared at her oddly, then shook his head and walked off. Maybe it would h

"I'm pregnant?" Renee shook her head and said firmly, "That's impossible.""Why not? Just do the test and we'll see." Leia thought about it for a while, then said cheerfully, "Well, I'll go get the pregnancy test kit. Wait for me!" Immediately, she went to a nearby pharmacy to buy one. When she returned, she found Tess, the part-timer, making coffee. "What are you adding to it?" Leia glanced at it and asked Tess."Oh, nothing." Feeling guilty, Tess upset the cup of coffee and said in a panic, "It's sugar. Ms. Everheart hates bitter coffee, so she asked me to add some sugar to it.""Really?" Leia frowned, wondering when Renee's taste had changed since she always had sugar-free coffee. However, she didn't think about it much and just headed upstairs to give Renee the pregnancy test kit. At first, Renee was reluctant to take the test because she was certain that she wasn't pregnant, but after Leia persuaded her, she braced herself and did the test. After a while, Leia squealed excite

"Can I wake her up?" Stefan seemed to be asking them and himself. He shook his head in self-hatred. "I'm afraid I'm the reason why she wants to escape this world. She must hate me to the core and refuse to see me. She might know that I'm here, so she's avoiding me and refuses to wake up."He recalled how much he had harmed her. He was not confident to wake her up, let alone face her."Yes, you're sinful, ut you must be held accountable for it!" Justin could not bother to waste his time talking to Stefan. He pushed Stefan into the ward instead. "You made her so angry, she's in a coma now. So, you have to wake her up. If she doesn't, you can't leave the ward!""Agreed!"Jovan was standing on the other side. He and Justin seemed to have formed a barrier and refused to let Stefan back down.After some contemplation, Stefan decided to face the music. He closed the ward door and quietly went to Renee's bed. It was the first time he was alone with her after a long time."You're tr

Unsurprisingly, Renee remained irresponsive. Justin gradually grew depressed. Before, he was confident. Seeing that he was getting no response from her, his confidence waned. Undeniably, he was probably not that important to her. If not, she wouldn't remain indifferent. She would have sensed that he was around. "I got it. You don't need me." Justin smiled helplessly. He felt pathetic too. He took a deep breath and finally stood up to exit the ward."How's it going?" Stefan asked.He kept waiting outside the ward, paying close attention to it in hopes that Renee could wake up. He also felt that Justin could bring Renee wonderful things and hope. She would wake up when she sensed that Justin was calling for her. "Hmph! Isn't it obvious? Of course, he couldn't wake her up!" Jovan casually leaned against the bench in the corridor, not even looking up. He sounded vicious. "He's just a backup guy. Of course she doesn't care about him! She's not in love with him." Justin glared at J

Stefan remained quiet as he calmly watched Renee. He extended his hand to touch her face but retrieved it before he could.She used to be the woman he was familiar with and the one he had hugged and kissed countless times, but now, he didn't even dare to touch her. "I think she doesn't even want you here. She must hate you so much and is disappointed in you. She'll be even more pressured if you stay here, and it'll push her further from this world. So please, get the hell out of here if you want the best for her!"Justin could not hold himself back from scolding Stefan. If Jovan was telling the truth, Stefan must be aware of the fact that Jovan was holding Renee hostage. Yet, he remained indifferent and feigned ignorance. He didn't even care if Renee was fine. What a cruel bastard! Justin was disappointed in Stefan. He wanted nothing more than to see what was really on Stefan's mind."Take good care of her." Stefan did not want to defend himself. He glanced at Renee, relucta

"What did you do to her?!" Stefan interrogated Jovan coldly, his eyes teary. "She isn't the kind to kill herself! What the hell did you do to her?" "Try to wake her up if you want to know." Jovan was pale. His previous sickness, coupled with his recent blood donation to Renee, made him very weak. Despite that, he refused to stop infuriating others. "Do you think I can't do anything to you? Do you really think that?" Stefan could no longer hold himself back and strangled Jovan. "I'm going to kill you! Repent for the terrible things you've done!"He couldn't imagine the kind of thing that could force the strong and stubborn Renee to resist by using such a desperate means. "You obviously won't go easy on me! I'm sure of that!" Jovan sneered. His pale face turned flushed as he suffocated from Stefan's powerful grip. "But you'd better kill yourself first if you want to avenge her! She ended up like this because of you." "What?" Stefan's face was frosty. He strengthened his grip a

Jovan slowly got up from the ground, looking incredibly weak. He whispered, "She lost too much blood. The doctor claimed she's out of danger, but…she hasn't woken up.""What did you say?" Stefan and Justin were bewildered. They couldn't process his words."So, she was the female college student who tried to kill herself?" Stefan said. He staggered after linking the information he had heard from a nurse with the things that Jovan had said."Stop acting dumb! You're so smart, how could you have missed that?" Jovan glared coldly stared at Stefan, scrutinizing him in disdain. "You were just too scared to face the truth and your woman! You're such a coward! You're an embarrassment to your family!""Agreed!" Justin added; he suddenly found Jovan useful, especially when the latter started insulting Stefan. It felt just right."Although I'm a fallback guy, I'm braver than you. I accept that she doesn't love me, and I'm willing to give it a try with her. And although this guy's a vill

Stefan frowned, doubtful. He looked vigilantly at Jovan, who had collapsed on the ground. "What do you mean by this?"Jovan kept coughing and said nothing. His lips grew pale as he sneered.Justin's eyes were cold, and he held back his urge to beat up Jovan. "Hmph! Obviously, this is a scam!"He demanded condescendingly, "How dare you barge into my territory and take away my woman! Don't you fear my family and me at all?"Jovan, filled with disdain, looked at Justin as if he was a fool. "Stop talking. You don't even have the right to join this battle."To Jovan, only Stefan was qualified and powerful enough to be his enemy."How dare you say that!" Justin was infuriated. He got down on one knee and grabbed Jovan. "Your family always says nasty things! You two are the same. If we start fighting, I'll make sure to cut your tongue first!""Did I say something wrong?" Jovan sized Justin up, ridiculing Justin with mock compassion. "Don't you have any self-awareness? You're just a fal

Stefan frowned and asked solemnly, "Aren't you a top hacker? Hack into this hospital's inpatient system. Then, we'll know where she is.""Yes, you're right." Still, Justin wanted to challenge Stefan. He said indifferently, "But you're Jovan's cousin. It's more convenient for you to make a call instead of me hacking into their system."Yes, Justin could hack into their system, but calling Jovan would be quicker. And what they needed the most was time."He and I…" Stefan sneered, flexing his fingers. "The fact we didn't kill each other is considered peaceful. He's not as obedient as you think.""You'll know by calling him."Justin had heard about the complicated internal fights of the Hunt family, but he felt that Stefan was exaggerating."Jovan is a Hunt no matter what. Plus, he's still working at Hunt Enterprise. Just call him," Justin said. "Fine." Stefan found Justin logical. His private grudges with Jovan were not important because finding Renee immediately was the most impo

Both Stefan and Justin arrived at Grace Hospital quickly. However, Stefan suddenly stopped before he entered the hospital. He looked at Justin curiously."Let's go! It's urgent. Stop standing here!"Justin hurriedly ran. When he turned around, he found that Stefan had not caught up with him. Confused, he asked Stefan, "Something is puzzling me. Don't you want me to stop seeing her? Why did you let me come with you?" Stefan narrowed his eyes and interrogated Justin suspiciously, "Did you lie to me? Or are you plotting something?" "That's nonsense! Don't take me as you. I'm not full of schemes like you!" Justin sounded disdainful. In comparison to Stefan, Justin was not full of schemes. He also looked down upon Stefan since the latter was always vigilant.Justin answered honestly, "Yeah, I don't want you to meet her ever, but I'm sure she wants to see you if she's in danger. Yes, I hate you—but I want her to be happy." He guessed that Renee must be in a serious state since Jov

"Uh…" After some contemplation, Elijah nodded. "I know what to do, Mr. Hunt. It looks like you can see far beyond the current situation. Just leave this to me.""Of course, the most important thing is to have fun."Stefan remained calm; he didn't feel like he had stepped over the line. He merely wanted Justin to learn about the cruelty of the world since Justin was always being protected so well. Whenever he did something wrong, he had to pay a price for it.Besides, Stefan merely did it for his aunt, who had taken the gunshot for nothing. When they reached a consensus, Justin came to meet Stefan. "Hey…" After a pause, he said with dissatisfaction and helplessness, "Would you like to go with me?"Stefan raised his brows in confusion."I mean, do you want to visit Phoenix with me?" Justin sighed. He looked naive, like a college student, as he confessed, "I found Jovan. I don't know why he's so good at countersurveillance. After exiting the emergency room, he transferred her to
