"Adie... He..." The others exchanged glances, looking hesitant.Anxiety filled Renee as she watched them. She was about to push away her blanket to get up, ignoring her IV drip. "What's wrong with Adie? Tell me now. If not, I'll go and see him!""Ren, don't!" Leia gently stopped Renee, who was very agitated. "The most important thing for you right now is to get better. Don't worry about the other things for now.""What do you mean?" Renee looked up at Leia, her eyes watery. "You think my Adie is just some 'other thing'? Nothing is more important than him. If anything happens to him, I'll kill myself too!" "Sis, calm down. Lei didn't mean that." Quinton frowned and said solemnly, "Your body is your treasure. If you ruin your body, how can you protect the people you care about?" "But I have the right to know about my son's condition, right?" Renee was no fool. Given their reactions, something must have happened to Adie. It didn't matter what happened to her body for now, she just

"Adie…" Abby knew that Quinton and Leia were reluctant to tell Renee about Adie, but she felt like she had to tell her mother the truth. "Adie's been kidnapped!""Kidnapped?" Renee's heart skipped a beat. "That's impossible. Adie's so smart, there's no way he can get kidnapped. Has there been a misunderstanding?" Adie had always been smarter and more adaptable than other children, so Renee felt that nobody would dare to harm him. To her, it was more plausible that Adie had kidnapped someone or caused trouble, and he was too afraid to see her."Mommy, Adie really got kidnapped! I'm not lying!" Abby hurriedly added, "Someone called you when you were in a coma, and said you had to go to this horrible place to save Adie. But you lost too much blood at that time, so Uncle Quinton took the call and scolded that person. Then… we lost all news about Adie." The day Renee was admitted to the hospital, Quinton sent a helicopter to bring Abby to the hospital. Abby had stayed by the emergency roo

It was like that name set off a bomb, and the others became furious."Stop thinking about that ungrateful jerk!" Quinton snarled. "It's useless trying to rely on others, we can only rely on ourselves at times like this. I can still find Adie even without Stefan's help.""What… do you mean?" Renee didn't know why Quinton was so agitated. "Where is he now? Is he at the hospital? Does he know that Adie is kidnapped?""Stop talking about him!" Leia gritted her teeth and sighed in frustration. "You almost bled out for him, but what did he do? He turned around and left once he recovered. He's a cruel scumbag!" She was tired of watching Stefan and Renee separate then get back together. Initially, she had supported their relationship, then, she grew to hate Stefan, and now, she was just indifferent about it. She knew how dramatic they were, so there was no point getting emotional over their relationship because things might change again eventually. However, it still infuriated her to see Re

Suddenly, Chase, Quinton's subordinate, rushed into the room. "I have clues! Adie, he…" He stopped when he realized Renee was awake, and glanced at Quinton uncertainly. "What's wrong with Adie? Tell me now!" Renee ignored her injured wrist and leaped out of bed to go to Chase. "Tell me the truth! I'm his mother; I have the right to know!"The bandage around Renee's wrist was red with blood because she had moved too quickly, and when Leia noticed that, she hurriedly held Renee and said soothingly, "Ren, calm down. If not, your wound will open again…""I'll get the nurse!" Justin said anxiously and immediately ran out of the room.A nurse quickly entered a few moments later, and was shocked to see the bloodstained bandage. "Stop moving around. Are you trying to make it worse?""I'm fine!" Renee snapped, determined to get an answer from Chase. "Tell me about Adie's condition now!""Adie, he…" Chase turned to Quinton hesitantly, unsure if he should tell Renee or not."We'll deal wi

After a brief deliberation, Quinton nodded at Chase. "Tell us what's going on then, and don't leave anything out." Then, he turned to the nurse. "Treat her wound carefully. Don't hurt her."The nurse carefully removed the gauze around Renee's wrist. The cut underneath it was deep, and it was bleeding. She hurriedly grabbed some cotton to stop the bleeding, and after a while, the bleeding stopped.Chase swallowed and said carefully, "After a thorough search, our men found Madelyn's location.""Really?" Renee excitedly stood up when she heard that. "Where is she?" "Tiger Island." Chase explained, "Tiger Island is pretty remote and undeveloped. It's quite rough terrain.""I know Tiger Island…" Renee frowned. "It's 100 nautical miles south of the island where the kindergarten held their graduation trip… Why would she go there?" That place was deserted without any shops to provide food or drinks, and today was quite sunny. Renee didn't know how Madelyn got there, and couldn't figure o
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1883
"Adie... Well, he..." Chase hesitated, but when he saw Quinton's menacing expression, he hurriedly said, "Adie said that he was happy on the island and didn't want to come home. He even asked us not to disturb him.""What?" Quinton, Leia, and the others were stunned. "Adie was kidnapped—he's not there on vacation! How could he possibly be having fun? Was there some sort of misunderstanding?" Leia asked in disbelief."I'm sure Adie didn't send that!" Quinton glared at Chase. "You're useless. You couldn't handle such a small thing, and you're now trying to lie to us? Get lost!""No, Boss… Adie did say that!" Chase quickly took his phone out and pointed at a text with a picture sent by Adie. "See? That's Adie, right? He even took a selfie, and he looks… happy."Everyone gathered around Chase to read the message. There was a picture of Adie attached to it, and in it, he was sitting on the beach and staring out at the ocean. He looked rather relaxed for someone who had supposedly been

Renee's calmness surprised the others."How do you know that Adie was the one who sent the message?" Quinton read the message over and over again and couldn't see anything unusual. He frowned in concern. "But we can't just let him be. Leave this to me—I'll bring Adie home safely." Quinton knew that Renee wouldn't recover well as long as she was worried about Adie… but Renee seemed strangely unbothered about the situation."Adie always adds exclusive codes to his messages, and if you decipher them, you'll find out his true thoughts…" Renee inhaled deeply and explained, "You won't be able to bring him back unless he wants to come back. You'll just be troubling yourselves, so I suggest waiting for him. Once he sees things through, he'll come home." In the past, Adie had gone to Beach City and even snuck into Hunt Enterprise on his own. If he could survive that, he could survive being kidnapped by an ordinary woman. Given Adie's capabilities, Renee was more worried about Tiffany's mother
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1885
Adie recalled how Madelyn acted like a wicked witch in the cave at first, but now, she was gentle and compassionate. It was like seeing two different people, and he had no idea what had happened in between. Maybe he had charmed Tiffany's mother, or maybe she had suddenly realized her mistake. All he knew was that Madelyn tied him and Tiffany up before moving them to that deserted island, and gave them food and water from time to time. At night, she would chat with them and sing nursery rhymes for them to put them to sleep. It was baffling. Tiffany seemed happy, but sometimes she cried and clung to Madelyn. Adie was very curious but kept himself from asking about it. Once Madelyn trusted him more, he would bring it up."It's because..." Madelyn stopped flicking the firewood as her gaze grew fierce. "I think of my dead child every time I look at you kids. It's so unfair... Why are you kids so loved by everyone while my child didn't even get to be born? I want you kids to die with my chi

Leia couldn't understand it. Both Renee and Stefan once loved each other passionately. They had soldiered through a lot of difficulties. But when everything became better, they stopped seeing each other. Such separation brought a fatal blow to her views on love. Suddenly, she found herself too timid to give up her heart. After all, it was nothing. People could break up with each other easily."No wonder Xavier refused to come. If he was here, I would have hated him because of Stefan. I'd beat the crap out of him!" Leia was furious, but she couldn't find someone to vent her anger on.The Stuart family was invited to the party too, but Xavier refused to come. He claimed that he would have betrayed Stefan if he had come to the party.However, Stefan was the greatest betrayal of his romance since he remained silent and indifferent. While Leia was still angry, everyone in the hall suddenly fell silent. They stretched their heads to look at the entrance of the hall."The Hunt famil

"I… I don't know what you're talking about," Liam muttered guiltily, avoiding Leia's scrutinizing gaze. "You must know what I'm talking about!" Leia refused to let Liam go and went straight to the point. "Look! Because of such a bind, you probably fell in love with Amber, who isn't related to you. Why can't Ren fall in love with Justin after spending a long time with him?""So, what's your point?" Liam didn't refute Leia. He was curious about what she was trying to say. Leia reasonably explained her opinion, "I'm trying to tell you that things might not be as bad as you imagine. Even if you take Ren away and stop this ceremony, things might not be better either."She was too timid to tell Liam that she regarded Renee and Justin's marriage in a favorable light because she found them similar. Similar people could at least lead a stable life though it might not be very passionate and exciting.After leading a wandering life for such a long time, Renee needed steady happiness. It

Liam was impressed while looking at Justin's calm expression. He had always thought that Justin was cunning and full of schemes. He was even worried that Justin might plot against Renee in the future.However, Justin was quite open and generous. He was considering things from Renee's angle. He could be Renee's haven, but if he stepped down, he could willingly grant Renee's wish to be with the one she loved. It seemed that Justin was selfless, and Liam felt that he was worse than Justin. No wonder Renee would choose to spend the rest of her life with Justin. It seemed like he was a reliable man.Justin pocketed his hands and asked casually, "Is there any other problem now?""Not at the moment." Liam frowned in defeat. Since Justin had made such a big compromise, he would seem like a fool if he was too arrogant and refused to give up. A long sigh escaped him as he let go of Renee's hand, but he was still hopeful. He boasted to Justin, "Wait and see! I'll make Stefan appear.""Go

"Let go of her!" Justin turned cold and grabbed Renee's other hand. He said darkly to Liam, "You don't have the right to take her with you!""Hmph! I don't have the right to take her with me? Well, you don't have the right to marry her. I must take her with me today. Worst comes to worst, I'll fight your family!"Though he was too weak to fight the powerful Baldwin family, Liam was never a coward. He would fight the whole world alone for the sake of Renee's happy and stable life."Calm down…"In comparison, Justin was calmer. He was probably more confident since it was his territory and he could affirm Renee would not leave with Liam. He started mocking Liam. "I'm not the kind of person who will force others to do things they refuse to do. If Ren wants to leave, I'll let her go even if my family disowns me. But I know that she won't leave. At the very least, she won't leave with you.""What do you mean?" Liam could tell that Justin was mocking him, and it annoyed him. "Why are

Liam felt that his situation at the fort was almost the same as Renee's current situation. He had thought that the marriage was just for show. If he was unhappy, he could get a divorce. Even then, things were not that easy when he wanted to get out of that mess. If Amber had not protected him, Benjamin would have long gotten him killed. He knew better than anyone else how unfair it was for the other party when one tolerated and went through with the marriage.Amber was naive and was willing to be treated unfairly, but Justin was no fool. He would not be able to take it if it lasted for a long time. It was easy to imagine what Renee would face when Justin stopped taking her side."Let's go! I'm not afraid. You don't have to be afraid, either." Liam made up his mind to support Renee, who was standing behind him.Renee bit her lips and started to waver; not because she did not want to be with Justin, but simply because she was not confident in herself. She was afraid she would neve

"Liam, what are you doing?" Leia looked at Liam, unable to understand his sudden excitement."I'm going to meet Austin or Justin. I want them to cancel this engagement ceremony." Liam held Renee's wrist and tried to drag her out of the suite.He was certain Renee didn't want to marry Justin, so it was very likely that she would regret it in the future. It would be hard to settle if she regretted it after the engagement party. Liam felt that he had to try his best to put everything under control while he still could. Feeling helpless, Leia complained, "Stop making a scene… This is Ren's marriage. You can't make all this fuss!""You don't know. I'm doing this for her. I want the best for her." Liam knew the consequences of resisting Austin, given the man's position. He was also ready to be punished by them. Even though he would be beaten up vigorously, he would not hesitate as long as he could stop the ceremony and help Renee avoid such risks. "If you want the best for her, just

Leia felt so awkward that she wanted to run away. "Hey, can you stop flattering yourself? You haven't settled your messy romance, so please don't get Ren involved. You shouldn't joke like that!"Similarly, Liam found his joke impudent and admitted to his mistake. "Yeah, I was wrong. Don't take my joke seriously."Both Renee and Leia were amused. It helped relieve their tension. "But have you thought it through? After this ceremony, you'll be a part of the Baldwin family. You can't regret it by then," Liam said; he was worried about Renee. Everyone knew the Baldwin family's style. They had such a grand ceremony today. If anything went wrong, the Everheart family might be ruined for the second time. Although nobody knew who would win the battle, the trouble could be avoided. Liam was clueless as to why Renee wanted to take such a risk."Yes, I have." Renee nodded and added firmly, "I'd thought it through the moment I boarded the plane with Justin to fly here."It was the last c

Renee was done getting ready. As her closest friend, Leia came to North City with Liam immediately.The engagement ceremony was held in a magnificent hall of a top hotel. The guests arrived one by one and chatted among themselves. It was a luxurious and grand scene. "Ren, I'm sorry I'm late!" Leia arrived at the hotel suite where Renee was waiting. She put her hands together to express her apology. "It's Liam's fault! He was out of his mind and insisted on not coming here, but I forced him to and took some time. Please don't be mad at me!""Silly, I won't be mad at you. Plus, this ceremony doesn't carry much meaning. The Baldwin family just needs this as an assurance. It doesn't matter even if you're absent."Renee looked indifferent and was not at all happy and eager like a bride-to-be. The engagement ceremony was held to announce to the world about the relationship between her and Renee. In all honesty, Renee was resistant to it. She did not want her family or friends to at

Margaret decided to be frank since Renee had said so. "I can tell that you don't sincerely love Mr. Baldwin. Your marriage is just a way to avoid reality. Why are you so harsh on yourself if that's the case? Now, you're making such a big fuss about moving here. If you fail to get along with him and have to return to Beach City in the future, many people will gossip about you. They'll say nasty things about you. Why do you have to put yourself in such a condition?""Margaret, you don't understand…" Renee looked at herself in the mirror. She looked very charming, like a bride in ancient paintings. Everyone would be charmed by her—including herself. She knew very well that she was the one taking the lead in her romance with Justin. They could go on forever as long as she didn't end it. She was just afraid she could not hold on and wanted to stop, and the only reason that she wanted to stop was probably because of Stefan. "If I stay in Beach City, I'll come across Stefan. I know t
