The process was undoubtedly dangerous, and Quinton had suffered a lot of injuries getting the items. Similarly, Chase had also suffered a lot. Once they got what they wanted, they went to a nearby hospital to treat their wounds and rushed back to Beach City as fast as they could. Quinton had tried to get in touch with Stefan, but there was no response from him. He figured that Stefan might be in a place without any signal. He cut the call and took a deep breath to calm himself, then went to Everheart Manor. He hesitated before he went in. As Renee's brother, he had failed to uphold his responsibility as head of the family. Not only did he fail to protect Renee, but he had caused her so much trouble. He felt ashamed to meet her, and stood outside the door for almost ten minutes."Mr. Everheart, why aren't you going in?" Chase asked Quinton carefully as they stood at the door of the manor. "I'm too ashamed to go in," Quinton answered honestly."Really?" Chase was shocked and touche

"Uncle! Mr. Cheever! You both are finally back!" Adie and Abby were playing hopscotch in the yard, and lit up in excitement when they saw Quinton and Chase. They quickly ran over."Kids, it's been so long. Are you doing okay? Are you listening to your mommy?" Quinton asked gently as he hugged the two children. Quinton was a serious person who wouldn't even frown when he was in pain, but right now, he was speaking softly to the children like a kindergarten teacher. It was more than Chase could bear. "Uncle, you're finally home. Mommy is seriously ill, and we don't know what to do. I'm glad you're back..." Adie held Quinton's hand and said worriedly. He saw himself as the man of the house when Quinton left, and wanted to help Renee and protect her and Abby. Lately, he hadn't been eating or sleeping well because he was stressed, but now that Quinton was back, Adie felt like a burden had been lifted off of him. He knew that no one would dare to bully Renee and Abby if Quinton was around
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1667
Quinton was happy that he had rushed back—it was obvious that the family was falling apart. "You don't have to worry so much. I'm home, so everything will get better... Your mommy is just scared, and wants someone to be with her and protect her. Just leave this to me!" Quinton patted his chest to reassure them, and the two children led him to Renee's bedroom.There was a large terrace in Renee's bedroom that stretched out to an arc-shaped balcony. Various kinds of plants and flowers had been grown there, and when it was sunny, it was nice to sunbathe there amidst the nice fragrance of the flowers.Renee rarely left her room after she had lost her eyesight, and couldn't even enjoy sunbathing anymore. Feeling the sun's warmth on her skin was a cruel reminder that she could no longer see the flowers planted there, and that she might never find happiness. Today, however, she was willing to enjoy sunbathing on the balcony to get some fresh air. Somehow, she felt like her downfall would co

"What do you mean?" Quinton frowned in disdain. "Don't liken me to that iceberg—I'm not as cruel and aloof as him.""But you both said the same thing!" Renee smiled tenderly, feeling loved. "I got myself into this mess, but you both keep blaming yourselves. Like him, you look cold and fierce on the outside, but are actually a really warm and sensitive person." Outsiders felt that Renee was miserable because she was blind and poisoned, but she really wasn't because she was loved by so many. They tried their best to cure her, and although the poison had spread to her entire body, she felt happy to be loved so genuinely."If that's the case, I need to change my opinion of him," Quinton muttered as he pulled a chair over and sat beside Renee. Surprisingly, he started complimenting Stefan. "Yes, he constantly has a poker face on, and he seems world-weary and difficult, but he's sincere towards you. Back then, I wouldn't have believed him if he said he would die for you… but now I would. H

Renee couldn't reach Stefan's phone, and he hadn't replied to any of her texts. Although Renee was anxious, she believed that Stefan would be safe and return when he had promised… but now she wasn't so sure. "He was lucky you were there that day to save him, but will someone be there to help him if it happens again? Will he..." Renee bit her lip, too frightened to think about it."Don't worry about him, he's strong. He won't get into accidents that easily." Quinton tried to comfort Renee and told her about their plan. "I discussed it with him—I'm in charge of finding the Western Hills Fruit and Northern Lake Anaconda, and he's in charge of finding the dragon's saliva. His task is more difficult than mine, so naturally, he'll come home later than me."Renee, however, could not stop overthinking. "Is the dragon's saliva even real? I feel like Dr. Wagner is just trying to give me hope, and it doesn't actually exist.""Why not?" Quinton immediately fished out the three items he had plac
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1670
The existence of dragons had always been a great controversy, as they only appeared in legends. In Aeos, dragons symbolized power, honor, and luck, but in Benores, they were the incarnation of evil. Stefan had done his research, and found that there were records of dragons appearing in Water City, Srey, Cheville, Tregas, and Reka. The incident of a dragon falling was widespread in Reka, and they even had photos as proof. It indirectly proved that dragons were real, and there were other places where dragons had apparently resided too.Stefan had asked around and finally came to a village called Dragos. It was located in the depths of the mountains, and the villagers lived in groups on the cliff. They led a primitive life away from the world. There weren't many villagers, but they were united and quite unfriendly to visitors. All of them believed in dragons and used dragons as their totems. The walls of their houses were full of pictures of dragons. Stefan sent everyone except Elijah
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1671
Elijah tried a few times, but failed to pass through it. When he looked down, he saw a cliff with a huge gap, and it almost gave him a heart attack. "Ah, I... I can't do it. I can't!" Elijah grabbed his chest, feeling dizzy. He couldn't hold on even if he wanted to. "Just wait here if you can't do it. I'll go up and take a look. I won't be long," Stefan said briefly, then bent over and passed through the hole. It was hard for him to pass through that hole because he was tall. If he was careless, or if he slipped, he might fall off the cliff. Luckily, he was strong and agile, and entered the village smoothly. Neil also entered the village skillfully. Elijah had tried several times but failed, so he just waited at the entrance of the village helplessly. After entering the village, Stefan found that Neil was right—one could only move around through the cliffs. There was a palm-sized path that went up to the top of the mountain where only a few houses could be seen."How amazing!" S

Gravel rolled down the cliff, and Neil's body started slipping down the cliff. Just as he thought all hope was lost, a light shone ahead, and a few villagers with torches rushed over. "Great! Someone's coming!" Neil shouted for help in the direction of the light. "Help! Save us!"When the villagers heard his cries for help, they quickly ran over. "Ah, it's Neil! It's Neil!" When the villagers saw Neil and Stefan, they went over to help pull Stefan up. "Whew, how dangerous! If we fell, it would be over for us." Neil lay on the ground, taking deep breaths. He glanced at the bottomless cliff anxiously, realizing just how close he had been to death."Thank you." Stefan dusted himself off. In comparison with the frightened Neil, he looked a lot calmer. It was as if he hadn't almost died. "I'll remember your kindness today and repay you with a big reward one day.""Don't say that. I'm your guide—I'm responsible for your safety. It's what I should do." Neil spoke politely, full of respec

Austin hurriedly explained, "I did think that way at first. But after conversing with him, I changed my mind right away. I think he's an outstanding young man with a unique mind, but he was forced to take the wrong path at first by the difficulties in life. It isn't a big deal. We can remedy that.""Uh, is that true?" Renee didn't expect Austin's attitude to change that fast. She glanced at Quinton and wondered about his charms. She wondered how he could easily win the old man over with a few words in such a short time. "Okay, we've cleared things up. Since your family is here, we can discuss the arrangement of your engagement ceremony with Justin."Austin was delighted.He promised, "Quinton, you're Ren's family. Just tell us what you want. I'm sure my family is good enough to fulfill your request.""Grandpa Baldwin, that's unnecessary…" Renee hurriedly tried to turn him down. "Justin and I got together because of love. I don't want anything or formality. Plus, you gave me an

"Nonsense!" Austin valued that fountain pen the most, so Quinton's words were humiliating for him. "My soulmate got this present for me. How could he lie to me?" The fountain pen was not a big deal, but if Austin found out that he was cheated, it would be very disheartening."If you don't trust me, I can ask my subordinate to airship the real fountain pen I keep. You'll know which is real by comparing both." Quinton sounded confident."Fine!" Austin was enthusiastic. He waved and added, "Get your subordinate to deliver the item here. If my fountain pen is fake, I'll demand an explanation from my soulmate!"Quinton didn't hesitate. He quickly fished his phone out and texted Chase. When he got the reply, he snapped his fingers and said, "Just wait. The thing will get here tomorrow morning at the earliest." "Well, I like the way you handle things. You're fast and decisive. You don't hesitate at all. You look just like Maurice. I admire you for that." Looking at Quinton, Austin coul

Renee woke up early the next day. After she was done washing up, a servant arrived and asked her to head to Austin's study."Okay, I'll go now." For an unknown reason, Renee felt worried. Although the Baldwin family had let bygones be bygones and treated her as their own, she still felt inexplicably uneasy.She had witnessed Austin's wrath and knew how dangerous her current situation was. Her words or expressions might infuriate Austin. If so, she would be doomed forever. During the conversation the day before, she noticed that Austin was bothered by Quinton's background. He sounded like he wanted to eliminate that trouble. Renee understood why Austin wanted to meet her alone. He definitely wanted to criticize Quinton and make her express herself properly. While she was walking toward Austin's study, Renee wondered whether she should contact Justin. After all, she told him yesterday that they should face any issue together. However, though she was holding her phone, she c

Renee's words turned the air cold.Justin stopped walking and looked at her, his gaze ice. He demanded, "You want to end it here? What do you mean?" Renee was filled with guilt. She avoided Justin's fierce gaze and tried to make the topic less stressful. "I mean… Let's end everything here.""Hmph!" Justin snorted, unable to hide his disappointment. He found it unfair. "It's just a small thing, but you want to give up so easily. Is our relationship that fragile?""I just don't want to make things difficult for you." Renee heaved a long sigh, overwhelmed with emotions.She belonged to the dark and was fine with her gloomy side, but she didn't want to pull Justin into the darkness. She felt that ending things with him as soon as possible was the right choice.After all, she could never treat Quinton as a stranger for the sake of her happiness. If she had to choose between the two, she could only choose Quinton. She was all he had."No, I don't think so…" Justin frowned, despondent
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2257
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.
