Jovan left the room, and found Stefan sitting in the living room with a worried expression. "You're still here?" Jovan asked teasingly, sliding his hands into his pockets. "It's late. Why aren't you home with your wife and kids since you claim that you're such a good husband?" Stefan got to his feet and glared at Jovan. "I was waiting for you!""You were waiting for me?" Jovan chuckled and sneered sarcastically, "What an honor to have the great Stefan Hunt wait for a nobody like me." "Cut the crap!" Stefan growled and demanded, "What did you talk about with Grandpa? Tell me. He doesn't have a say in a lot of things." He figured that Timothy might have tried to offer something to Jovan to protect Stefan. He just hoped that Jovan wouldn't be too cruel. Stefan knew Timothy held him in high regard, but he always felt that it was unnecessary. "You're a smart man; I'm sure you don't need me to spell it out for you, right?" Jovan walked over to Stefan, then turned to the large French w

"You won't?" A chuckle escaped Jovan. "But Grandpa said that you would. He painted you as a soft-hearted god who would show me mercy, and that weakness of yours would be your demise. He begged me, hoping I would let you go!" Jovan laughed, mocking Timothy. He'd never assumed that Stefan would go easy on him—he just hadn't pushed Stefan's limits yet."I knew it!" Stefan asked urgently, "What did he offer you?" Timothy had been mysterious lately, and always chatted with Jovan behind Stefan's back. Stefan figured that Timothy might have heard rumors about the board of directors being unhappy with him, and figured that Jovan would defeat Stefan in a battle for the company, so he had tried to make peace with Jovan humbly for Stefan's sake… but that wasn't the truth. Stefan could have fought back, but he was exhausted, and he had something else he valued more now. He didn't care about fighting Jovan anymore."He said he would let me have full power over Hunt Enterprise, and you'll only be
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1572
Stefan frowned and asked Jovan, "What do you want?" In his mind, all Jovan wanted was the right to rule Hunt Enterprise and be superior to Stefan. Timothy's offer had met those requirements, so Stefan couldn't figure out why Jovan would say reject it. "I want your woman… Will you let me have her?" Jovan smiled teasingly as he asked.Stefan stopped in his tracks, and an uncontrollable rage overwhelmed him. He punched Jovan in the face, sending him tumbling to the ground. Jovan didn't retaliate, and just wiped away the blood on his lips. He stared at Stefan contemplatively, then sneered, "I won't fight you. I'll let you have Hunt Enterprise, but you have to give your woman to me. Can you do that?""How dare you say those words again!" Stefan's expression was livid. He wanted to punch Jovan again, but stopped himself, resorting to clenching his fists instead. "If what I said makes you angry, then don't you understand how I could be angry when you and Grandpa offered me such a choi

"You're crazy, Jovan! You know full well how you got your eyes. She sacrificed her future so you could see again, and you'd be a horrible excuse for a human being if you tortured her like this!" Stefan snarled. He had tried his best to accept it, but no man would be okay with their lover giving up her eyes to another man who now refused to let her go. If Stefan thought about it any more, he was worried he would fight with Renee again."I know my eyes are hers. You should know why she gave up her eyes to me..." Jovan stared at Stefan's eyes and sneered. "What right do you have to order me around and demand things from me since you're the one benefiting from all this? Return my eyes to me if you can then!""How dare you!" Jovan's words struck Stefan like lightning. Stefan wanted to say he would… but he couldn't. He didn't want to live in that endless darkness again, and he needed to take care of Renee. If he behaved impulsively and returned his eyes to Jovan, no one could take care of

"Is there anything else?" Stefan stopped and turned to look at Leia wearily. His talk with Jovan had tired him out, and he had to worry about Renee and the children. Even if he was energetic, there were times he wanted to rest too. For now, he just wanted one night where he could rest quietly. "You left early and came home late. You didn't spend much time with Ren, and now you want to go straight to bed. Have you ever thought that Ren might be waiting for you? Wouldn't she be disappointed if you just went to sleep?" Leia asked meaningfully. She wasn't usually a busybody, but today was a special day. She knew Renee well, and figured she was probably still awake and waiting for Stefan to comfort her. If Stefan went to bed now, Renee might be mulling over the news the whole night."You're right. I wasn't being considerate enough." Stefan nodded and took a deep breath before he headed upstairs quietly. "Hey, you..." Leia's heart ached as the sight of his lonely figure heading up the s

"Silly, that day will never come. You'll be the one getting sick of me." Stefan kissed Renee lovingly. His wife might never realize how attractive she was and how many people were coveting her, so he had to be alert all the time.After a while of kissing, Renee said rather bashfully, "Umm... There's something I want to tell you.""What is it? Why are you being so mysterious about it?" Stefan was curious because both Renee and Leia had been acting strangely. "Open the drawer—there's something in it. I'm sure you'll know when you see it." Renee kept her head ducked, as shy as a schoolgirl. It was not the first time she had gotten pregnant, but she was more nervous and excited than before. Renee felt that the both of them would look forward to this child's arrival. "I'm looking forward to it!" Stefan could not suppress his eagerness as he pulled open the drawer. When he saw the test strip and two lines on it, he became nervous. "Dear, umm... is it positive?" "What?""Why didn't y

"No, of course not!" Stefan immediately covered Renee's lips. "Shush… Don't say such things. If our baby hears that, he or she may hate me, and that would be unfair for me." "What? The baby is just a small cell that can't even be seen at this point, of course it can't hear us." Amused, Renee moved his hand away, feeling relieved at his joy. Of course she had been worried— she was blind, and Stefan was busy gaining a firm foothold in Hunt Enterprise. Besides, they had Adie and Abby. Even if Margaret, Leia, and the others were around, it would still be quite exhausting. If they had another child now, their life would be more chaotic. "I'm serious, darling. I can get rid of it if you think it's not the right time for us to have another child." Leaning into Stefan's arms, Renee said sadly, "We can have another child in the future; I don't want to see our lives get too chaotic, and I don't want to see you stressed." It was already tough taking care of a blind person, and if that person

It was better to communicate instead of making assumptions if there was an issue."Nothing. It's getting late. You should sleep early." Stefan didn't want to tell her because he didn't want her to worry."No, there has to be something going on. Tell me!" Renee said urgently. "I said that there can't be secrets between us. I don't want you to go to bed worrying about whatever that is."Stefan sighed deeply, knowing Renee wouldn't let it go until he told her. "Hurry up. We can sleep after you tell me!" Renee complained. "Okay, I'll tell you." After some hesitation, Stefan explained, "Grandpa talked to Jovan alone again tonight, and I talked to him too. Can you guess… what we talked about?""Control over Hunt Enterprise?" Renee asked instantly. "Isn't that why he constantly fights with you? Doesn't he find it tiring?" Although she had been staying at home recently, she did listen to financial news. She was aware of Jovan making vast changes to Hunt Enterprise that had been pretty

A long sigh escaped Renee. Rather than contempt, she sympathized with Quinton deeply. "I'm his sister. I can't treat him like a stranger. All I can do is gradually help him lead a normal life and guide him to atone for his sins. I feel sad for his past."Silence filled the air. No one said anything, at a loss for words. They couldn't be callous and say as they liked. Now that Austin had learned of this, no one could be sure if his righteous and stubborn personality would make him stop Renee and Justin's marriage.After all, Austin was a very strict person. He had been honorable his whole life. He couldn't allow a wicked man's sister to be a part of his family. Justin, anxious, hurriedly echoed Renee's words. "Yes, her brother has changed a lot. Now, he's doing decent work. His pawnshop only deals with rare items instead of indecent ones. I've spent some time with him. He's a reasonable guy, not at all as wicked as the rumors make out. At most… He's just got a bad temper."Ju

When she heard such aggressive words from Justin, Sophia immediately cleared her throat to stop him from talking. However, Austin had no idea about the relationship between Renee and Water Dock. Instead of stopping, he sounded more indignant."That place is full of inhumane people, but I'm not from Beach City. If that place were here in North City, I would have gotten rid of it! It has harmed so many people…""Oh, Grandpa! Please stop talking!" Justin turned livid. He anxiously got up and tried to remedy the situation. "There are always good and bad people. You can't criticize them like they're the same." "Nonsense!" Austin had been a soldier his whole life and was deeply self-righteous. He added angrily, "I'm not joking! People related to that place better don't come to North City. If they do, I'll kill them and make them repent their sins!" Renee remained calm and indifferent. When Austin got tired from criticizing, she slowly looked up at him."Grandpa Baldwin, you're right
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2255
His words instantly made everyone upset—or at least, Renee was. Her face darkened as she recalled unpleasant memories. Sophia immediately glared at Jack and snapped, "Why did you bring that up? They're about to get married. It's a happy event for our families! Why must you talk about revenge? It's bad luck!"Everyone knew someone had deliberately targeted and framed the Everheart family back then. Even outsiders couldn't bear to recall that. As the only one who bore all the misery after her family was ruined, Renee must have been very desperate and heartbroken at that time. Ordinary people would never mention that. Unfortunately, Sophia's straightforward husband was a born comedian. He had mentioned that on purpose, infuriating her. "It's okay." Renee flexed her fingers and tried her best to appear at ease. "My heartbreaking past is gone, but I need to help my family make a comeback and avenge my parents. My brother and I have always worked hard for it, so of course I'll be glad
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2254
Since Renee and Justin had reached a consensus, their wedding date must be set. The Baldwin family sat at the dining table and kept staring at Renee, who had taken her seat. They couldn't hide their joy."You two are considered married now, so we should hold a wedding soon. It'll be bad for your reputation otherwise. It'll be a great loss for you, too," Austin said; he didn't beat around the bush as he didn't want Renee to make an excuse and turn his suggestion down.Besides, the Baldwin family assumed that she and Justin had enjoyed a great romance that afternoon. They were eager for a baby.Thus, the wedding was an urgent matter. If Renee got pregnant before she married Justin, it would shame the family. Austin didn't want to see that. "Uh…" Renee cautiously sipped some tea while everyone stared eagerly at her. She was gripped with the same anxiety she felt when interrogated. Helpless, she glanced at Justin for help.Justin immediately stood up and complained, "Grandpa, w

"You can't regret it if I go on." Justin confirmed with Renee again. He knew she was forcing herself, but he needed an answer from her. People might change their minds. For example, Renee knocked him out just now because he was rude. She even tied him up and wouldn't let him touch her at all. But it had only been a few hours. She wasn't on guard against him as she lay in bed and was letting him do whatever he wanted with her. Who knows, she might regret it later if they did sleep with each other. Then, she might hate and leave him… Justin had to get to the bottom of it and get rid of all the risks. He didn't want to be manipulative."Go on. I won't regret it!" Renee gnashed her teeth, insisting on making that breakthrough—as if she could only embrace a new life by overcoming that big obstacle.In a way, Justin was her savior, the one who helped her bid her past goodbye. "I'll keep that in mind regardless if you mean it or not. I'll assume that you're willing," Justin said.

"Have you thought it through?" Justin looked at her as she lay in bed. Though she was still wearing clothes, her curvy figure sparked endless imagination in him.Undeniably, Renee was an attractive and smart woman. Her amazing skills were merely one of her charms. Her devastatingly beautiful face and seductive figure were the reasons why so many men fell for her. People generally loved wonderful things, regardless if they were elite men or the average Joe. No one could resist Renee's charm and figure. In short, it was a physical attraction."Yes, I've thought it through." Renee looked up at Justin. He seemed like a familiar stranger to her—familiar because he had always been her soulmate and best friend who shared many interests and the same views. They dreamed of the same thing too: world peace.Justin mirrored her character. She would see herself every time she looked at him. They were a perfect match. Hence, he was a familiar stranger to her. For the first time, she realized

Renee understood Justin and frowned. She tore off the tape on his mouth and pinched his cheek. "You have five minutes to repent since you're awake. If you do a good job, I'll let you go. If not, I'll keep you tied up here."The scene just now was awkward for the two of them. Renee had to come up with a way to get rid of that. If not, she didn't know how to face him, let alone spend the rest of her life with him."Repent?" Justin took deep breaths and cleared his throat. Then, he looked into her eyes. "What do you want me to repent for?""You…"Justin's bold gaze rendered Renee helpless. She bit her lip awkwardly. "What do you think?" "Are you referring to me kissing you, or…me trying to make you mine?" Although Renee knocked him out, he remembered everything that happened before he fainted, including what he had seen."Yeah, you were rude. Shouldn't you repent?" Renee tried to make herself bolder. If not… She would seem unreasonable, especially when her dignity was violated.
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2250
"Inside story?" Confused, Renee looked at Sophia. "What is it?" "I can't tell you that. All I can say is the Hunt family isn't as good as you see them. Even if they've helped you, it's because they're trying to make up for their sins. You don't have to be grateful to them. Getting away from them is the best choice you made."Sophia, being from the last generation, had heard of the complicated relationships among the three families even though she had not seen them. However, she couldn't expose those affairs to the younger generation lest the worst happen. The most she could do was to remind Renee. Renee could tell that Sophia wouldn't tell her too much and stopped asking. However, she kept it in mind and decided to find the truth."Okay, Ren. Stop overthinking. Since you're here, just spend your days with peace of mind. My family is strong and can protect you for the rest of your life. Just enjoy your life with Justin.""Got it." Renee nodded, pretending to have seen it through.
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2249
Sophia hurriedly asked Renee."Uh…" Renee flexed her fingers; she couldn't bring herself to lie. She wondered if she loved Justin. She couldn't tell.A large part of her reason for choosing Justin was because she didn't hate him. Sometimes, she felt that he was her soulmate. If she had to start a new romance, she hoped it would be with him. At least, she could be intimate with him and could imagine sleeping in the same bed with him. "I got it. You don't love him." Sophia saw through Renee at a glance. A long sigh escaped her. "We're all sports of fate. If we insisted on him marrying you when your family was ruined, the ending might be different.""Did you guys know me at that time?" Renee asked curiously.She had heard Justin mention that before, but she assumed that he had purposely talked nonsense to set up a good image. Since Sophia had admitted, it seemed to be the truth."Of course!" Sophia smiled and added, "Your family was prosperous at that time and was famous at North
