Seeing how crestfallen Stefan looked, Owen had no choice but to comfort him. His preliminary judgment based on Renee's strange heartbeat and her fatigue was that there was something wrong with her health… but it wasn't because of her pregnancy. However, he couldn't make a groundless conclusion without referring to the blood test results, and he didn't want to agitate Stefan."I'm glad it's normal." Stefan breathed a sigh of relief. "Did you hear that, dear? You're fine. It's just that you get tired easily because you're pregnant. It's my fault—I have no experience with this, so I thought something was wrong with your health!" Stefan hugged Renee happily and pointed at her belly. "Baby, you'd better be good. Don't torture your mother. Your mommy is tired because of you, and if you tire her too much, I'll beat you up once you're born!"Amused, Renee smiled sweetly. "Oh, stop being so silly. You don't act like a mighty president at all.""Alright, guys, that's enough romance for one da

"What's the matter?" Owen asked Renee curiously."I hope you won't tell Stefan if there's any bad news," Renee said simply. She had made Stefan leave because she didn't want him to worry about her, and she needed Owen's cooperation to make that happen. "Ah, I guessed as much." Owen was not surprised by Renee's request. On the contrary, he felt sorry for her. Renee was the ill one, but she only cared about Stefan and didn't want him to be sad. It was a textbook example of true love."Don't worry, I'm not some insensible blabbermouth. I know what I should or shouldn't say," Owen said reassuringly, then added lightly, "Well, don't worry too much about it. I might not work miracles, but I'm still pretty good at what I do. You'll be fine as long as you stick with me. Also, nothing is really certain, and it could just be that you're tired because of the pregnancy.""I hope so." Renee smiled wearily and said nothing more. She felt that the blood test results would be bad. After all, the

Owen sighed deeply. He wanted to tell Renee that it was better for her to die early given her condition. Based on the blood test results and Renee's current fatigue, there was a high possibility that Renee was suffering from heavy metal poisoning. If that was the case, Renee would eventually have organ failure and nerve damage, and die a slow and painful death. In the initial stage, people would feel tired and sleep all the time, then the nerve damage and organ failure would start to cause them excruciating pain.Her life would become a living hell.Owen tried to think of the best way to phrase the cruel truth, and finally said, "You don't have to worry—I'll cure you." Although he said that, it was extremely difficult to cure heavy metal poisoning. He would also need to know the compound and its dosage so he could come up with a specific treatment plan."I want you to tell me the truth. What have your meals been like lately? Did you eat anything you shouldn't have?" Owen asked Renee
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1588
Owen felt sorry for Renee. A confident, bright, and carefree woman like her had been reduced to such a tragic state in just a few months. Renee had lost her eyes and had been poisoned; she was as pitiful as a wilted flower. "Ms. Everheart, I can't work miracles, but I promise to do my best to help you get better. And your eyes... You'll recover once we find a pair of suitable eyes. Don't be so pessimistic—there's hope as long as you're still alive." Owen tried his best to comfort Renee. Although it was very difficult to cure heavy metal poisoning, and there were not many successful cases of it, it was not impossible. Since there had been successful cases, Owen felt that he could succeed as long as he studied them and did more research."Thank you, Dr. Wagner. I feel more confident now." She forced a smile and said in Owen's direction, "I hope that you'll help me keep these things from Stefan regardless of whether I can be cured or not. He's exhausted, and I don't want too many thing

"Great, I'm hungry. I want to eat it!" When Renee heard Stefan's voice, she tried to sit up eagerly even though she was tired and dizzy.It was the cake she had been craving. Unfortunately, the shop owner was proud, refusing to set up subsidiary shops or sign up for food delivery. Besides, there was a fixed number of cakes that were sold daily, and people would line up for ages to buy them. However, whether one could buy them depended completely on the shop owner's mood. If the shop owner was in a good mood, more cakes would be baked, and people could buy them. If not, the shop owner would not make any more. Even if people got to the front of the line, the shop owner would not bake the cakes for them. The baker's sincerity and passion was obvious in the cake's delicious taste. Renee ate a spoonful of the cake, and its rich taste moved her to tears."Is it bad?" Stefan asked nervously when he noticed Renee's sad look. "No, it's great. I'm just a little anxious because I'm scared I w

"It's... It's because..." Renee was at a loss for words. She wasn't good at lying, especially to people she cared about. "Pregnancy tests aren't always accurate. It actually depends on the person's hormones, and even men can get a positive result if their female hormones are too high!" Owen quickly helped Renee explain. Although it wasn't the truth, it was enough to fool someone like Stefan.As expected, Stefan believed it, and disappointment rose in him. "Are you sure?""Yeah, the test results can't be faked. Ms. Everheart isn't pregnant." Owen patted Stefan's shoulders and comforted him, "But it's okay. You both are young, so just keep working hard." "I'm sorry, darling. I didn't want to lie to you. I thought I was pregnant when Lei told me that there were two lines. I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble." Upset, Renee apologized to Stefan pitifully.Instantly, Stefan's heart softened, and he hurriedly comforted Renee, "Silly, you don't have to apologize to me... I should

"No, you can't!" Stefan covered Renee's mouth and said seriously, "Don't even fancy such a thought. If you get sick of me, I'll jump into the sea with you. We'll start a new life, then we'll find each other a novelty again." Their conversation gave Owen goosebumps. He would never have thought that the aloof president of Hunt Enterprise would be so clingy. Stefan behaved like a primary school kid!Stefan had finally managed to reassure Renee, but suddenly realized there was something they hadn't addressed. "No, my wife's been dispirited lately. She's always tired and sleepy. What's wrong with her then if it's not pregnancy?" "It's because she's suffering from—" Owen had wanted to tell Stefan the truth, but when he caught sight of Renee's panicked expression, he sighed. "I think it's the aftermath of losing her eyes. Her health got worse, and she suffered some blood loss, which is probably why she's feeling so lazy and dispirited.""I guess so." Stefan clenched his fists and looked

"Your eyes..." Owen looked at Stefan's eyes and faked a smile. "I think they're good. They're deep-set and cunning like a fox's, which means that the owner of the eyes isn't that easy to fool.""Stop messing around!" Stefan groaned. His eyes were Jovan's eyes, and Jovan was a wicked and cunning man. Sometimes Stefan hated having those eyes, but he could not get rid of them. "So, you're saying that my eyes can be given up to my wife?""We'll need a check-up for that to see if they're compatible, but generally... it's impossible," Owen replied tentatively."Why not? Since my wife could give her eyes to Jovan, Jovan's eyes should be suitable for her too.""Yeah, you can say that, but human organs aren't reciprocal—it's not like you can casually pass them around. Yes, you're using Jovan's eyes now, and that means that your body has accepted Jovan's eyes, and your cells have produced a system to match them. But that system might not suit Ms. Everheart. Does that make sense to you?" Owen

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
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2251
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.

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
