The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1888
Adie was brave when he lived on Sun Island back then, but the one thing he feared was the yearly hurricane season. During that time, there would be heavy rain and strong winds, and trees and houses on the island would be uprooted. It was the scariest time of the year, which was why Adie had learned the signs of an impending hurricane."Hurricane?" Madelyn was stunned. "The weather forecast didn't mention any hurricanes.""Weather forecasts can't be trusted. Stop wasting time—we have to go now!" Adie shouted anxiously, the strong winds nearly knocking him to his feet."Go?" Madelyn looked around, dazed. "Where can we go? We can't sail the yacht in such weather, we'll end up in the sea." She suddenly regretted kidnapping the children and bringing them to such a dangerous place."Let's try to find a cave to shelter from the wind," Adie suggested calmly."That will do!" Madelyn was clueless about all this, so she just regarded Adie as the leader of their group.The three of them stag

The wind calmed a little half an hour later, but the downpour kept worsening. Stefan quickly docked the yacht, then got onto the island in the pouring rain. "Mr. Hunt, slow down... Wait!" The captain ran after Stefan with an umbrella, trying to shield him from the heavy rain. "This island is remote and undeveloped, and people don't dare to come here. We have to be careful in case we run into undercurrents or hidden caves." "I don't care about any of that!" Stefan snapped, "Get more manpower. I have to find my son!" Even a second of delay in this weather would be risky for Adie, and Stefan couldn't afford that. "But there's no signal here. We can't get in touch with the others!" The captain held the walkie-talkie up in the air, but there was no response or signal. It was impossible to get more manpower, and it was also dangerous because they couldn't contact a rescue team if needed."Keep trying, or go get the yacht and sail back to get some men. I'll look around on the island."

Madelyn and Stefan looked at each other in shock."Daddy, what are you doing here?" Adie asked in delight, then hurriedly added, "Where's Mommy? Did she come with you?""She..." After a pause, Stefan decided not to tell Adie the truth. "Something came up, so she might not be able to make it… It's okay though, it's the same as me picking you up." When he left, Renee was on the verge of death, and he didn't know what her current condition was. Since Adie was missing, he forced himself to suppress his worry for her, and left the hospital without looking back. He put all his heart into searching for Adie because he knew Renee would panic if she didn't see Adie when she woke up. He knew that Adie and Renee cared very much about each other, so he didn't want to worry Adie by telling him about Renee. "Hmph, it must have been important for her to ignore me like this…" Adie was jealous because Renee had chosen Stefan over him earlier, and the pain in his heart grew when he heard Stefan's wo

"Calm down!" Stefan said nervously, his eyes growing wide. "We can talk it out… just don't hurt him. I don't think there's any reason for us to fight." As far as he knew, he hadn't met Madelyn before, so he figured she didn't kidnap Adie for revenge."Oh, we're definitely not enemies. I'm actually a fan of yours, Mr. Hunt. I admire you very much..." Madelyn gazed at the handsome Stefan from afar, feeling excited and flustered like a young girl again. "I know that you're a noble rich heir, and an excellent president. I even watched the movie you filmed with Shirley... It's said that the movie is about the romance between you and your wife."Stefan frowned, not expecting this at all. He had wanted to kill Madelyn and save Adie, but it seemed like she was his fan. "I did shoot a movie, but it was many years ago. Did you target my son because of that?" Stefan asked Madelyn in confusion. Although it sounded silly, there had been cases of fans attacking celebrities like Nolan Hart, the lea

"What answer?" Stefan asked coldly."We'll know once the heroine is here," Madelyn said cryptically. "Renee?" Stefan snorted. "You'll be disappointed then. She won't come, and I won't let her come either." At that moment, Renee was still lying in the hospital, weak from blood loss. Stefan knew that Quinton and Leia wouldn't let her leave the hospital until she was fully recovered. "Why not?" Madelyn demanded. "Her son's life is in my hands, and her most beloved man is trapped in a cave. She's the only one who can rescue the both of you, so I'm sure she'll come." "She won't come. If you wait any longer, the oxygen in the cave will run out, and we'll all die here!" Stefan tried to suppress his rage, and ordered Madelyn, "Let Adie go. I won't hold you accountable as long as we come out of this disaster safe and sound." "I don't care about that." Madelyn looked up and laughed hysterically. "I didn't plan to go back alive, so it's better that I've got two more people to die with me
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1893
"What happened?" Stefan asked, his heart pounding. "The cave entrance... It's collapsed and completely blocked off—and worse, rain keeps pouring in!" The captain stammered, looking desperate. "If this goes on, the cave will fill with water, and we'll either drown or die from lack of oxygen!""What?" Stefan's eyes widened in disbelief. If that was the case, the only thing left for them was death. Lack of oxygen, drowning, hypothermia, hunger... They could take their pick."Are we dying? I... I don't want to die." Tiffany, who had been quiet all along, suddenly started to cry. "I want to grow up and keep on being my parents' daughter. I want to keep going to school and make many friends. I don't want to die!"Adie hurriedly held Tiffany's hand to comfort her. "Stop crying, Tiffany, we won't die. My daddy is awesome—he'll definitely come up with a way to rescue us. Plus, my mommy says I'm a lucky star, so everyone will be safe as long as I'm here." "Haha! It's fate!" Madelyn watche

"The news said that this is a powerful hurricane—it's almost a category three. Also, the center of the hurricane is only sixteen thousand feet from that island, so Adie's in grave danger right now!" Leia clenched her fists in agitation, wanting to rush to the island to rescue Adie. "There's no time to lose. Adie needs us!""I know that!" Quinton sighed in frustration. "I've sent Chase there to check things out. We can't panic at a time like this… If Ren finds out about this, she'll want to go there, and we can't afford that.""But we can't keep hiding it from her!" Leia tried to calm herself down by rubbing her hands, but it didn't work. "No, I can't sit here and do nothing. I've got to save Adie. If anything happened to him, I wouldn't be able to face Ren." Leia was a woman too, and although she didn't have children, she knew how important a child was to their mother. If something happened to Adie, it would crush Renee, and Leia didn't want to see that happen."You'd only make thin

Meanwhile, Renee had unplugged the infusion tube and left from the window ages ago. She was making her way to the island where Adie was. She knew that the others wouldn't let her leave the hospital in her current condition, but there was no way she could stay there and leave Adie alone during a hurricane. Both Adie and Abby meant more than her life to her, and she had to protect them no matter the cost. However, Renee was only human, and humans were weak in the face of natural disasters like this. The speedboat she had rented for an exorbitant price had almost been overturned by the strong winds several times, and her compass started to malfunction halfway through.She could only rely on her instincts moving forward. The downpour drenched her and soaked her bandages, tearing her recently healed wound. She almost fainted from the pain. 'My son needs me… I have to hold on!' Renee told herself, biting her lip so hard to stay conscious it started bleeding. She looked up at the sky and yel

Adie was still a child, but he acted like a smart person and could see through a lot of things. He could guess why Austin took them to the Baldwin residence. He had also heard the servants of the Baldwin family rebuking Renee in secret. After combining various situations, he learned about what had happened between Renee and Justin. Despite everything, Justin could forgive Renee under such circumstances. He also treated Adie and Abby nicely. It proved that he was a very compassionate man. A small regret gripped Adie. He wondered why Renee didn't date Justin right from the start. If Renee were with such a kind man, she might be very happy. She wouldn't have to suffer through so many hardships either. "No, you don't know me. I always sweat the small stuff."Justin was displeased since Adie had claimed that he was a good guy, like Renee had. He heaved a long sigh and said, "But it's useless even if I sweat the small stuff, so I stop trying. It all comes down to fate. We can't forc

Renee turned and found Jovan unscathed. Relief washed over her. She said grumpily, "It's none of your business!""Tsk! How cruel!" Jovan clutched his chest and pretended to be in deep pain. At the same time, he teased, "I know. Your soulmate is better. I'm so jealous of him, though he's still a fallback guy.""Go to hell, Jovan!" Jovan's nasty words drove Renee mad. She grabbed a piece of napkin, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it at his face. "If I knew you'd talk so badly, I wouldn't be bothered to save you. Maybe you'll get reborn in Ulria. Then, you have to watch your tongue!""Hey! Yeah, I was wrong. You don't have to curse me like that!" Jovan raised his hands to surrender, but felt quite moved. He poured himself a glass of milk and devotedly toasted to her. "Thank you for caring about me and trying your best to save me. I'll toast to you. And you can do whatever you want.""You're so childish." Renee rolled her eyes and was amused.Justin was quite jealous to see them

"What's that?" Justin frowned and said with disdain, "That's something to fool naive women like you. Only lovestruck fools will believe that." As a materialistic person, he never believed in things like horoscopes and fortune-telling. At most, they were mixed with some psychology. They weren't trustworthy at all.If Renee wanted to use those things to talk about their relationships and destinies, it would seem very childish. "Don't be so extreme. Those things are real and logical." Renee acted like an experienced salesperson and gradually eliminated Justin's prejudice. She said patiently, "If you believe those things, they can guide you and help you to see things through. If not, you can use them to kill time. Just try to get to know them. Isn't that nice?"Finally, Justin was convinced. He had some milk and asked her leisurely, "Fine. Tell me what kind of relationship we have based on those things." "I learned that our relationship is a declining friendship based on our birt

"I…" Renee paused. For a moment, she had no idea how to answer that question."Don't put yourself in a difficult position. Just follow your heart," Justin said calmly. "If you want to stay, my family will still welcome you readily. If you want to leave, I'll come up with a way to help you leave smoothly."After listening to Justin, Renee answered honestly, "Maybe it's better for me to leave, though I know this choice will hurt you."She could choose to stay to protect Justin's dignity and give Austin a good explanation. It would be more relaxing and steadier for her. However, Renee knew that it could only last briefly. She would cause Justin greater harm. She might as well be decisive and stop the damage in time. "Don't say that." Justin cracked a bitter smile and said with relief, "I've stopped taking things too seriously. If you like me, you won't stop loving me even if we're apart. Similarly, you'll think about another man if you don't like me, even though you're always b

Austin was having breakfast in the dining room. When he saw Justin and Renee walk over intimately, he finally believed that they had slept together. They seemed like a real couple."Good morning, Grandpa Baldwin!" Renee obediently greeted Austin just like before. She acted normally."Good morning." Austin nodded, unable to suppress his smile. After sizing them up, he calmly said to Renee, "We know how apologetic you are after you toasted to us last night. We'll forget about the past. You're still a part of my family." "Grandpa!" Justin interrupted Austin; he was very protective of Renee. "She's a woman, and we're not married yet. Please don't say that. A woman's reputation is the most important thing.""You…" Austin wanted to refute Justin, but their conflict was just resolved so it would be bad to pressure them more. He shook his head and said, "Fine. You two always have a bland romance. Finally, you've made some progress. I'll let you two decide what to do next.""Got it, Gr

"Hey, Haze! What are you doing? Get off of me!" Renee struggled in confusion."Hush!" Justin gestured and stopped her.In a while, someone unlocked the door of the room."Mr. Baldwin, let me help you and Ms. Everheart change your clothes." A kind middle-aged woman walked into the room casually. When she found them sleeping together intimately, relief washed over her. "Oh, you guys are still sleeping… Fine, I'll leave you be." Then, the woman exited the room.After that, Justin stopped hovering above Renee, looking awkward. "I'm sorry. It happened all of a sudden. If I hadn't done that, they wouldn't let us go. I just did a small thing to resolve the issue." Justin was fully aware of Austin's thoughts. Although Austin was still angry at Renee, he was satisfied with her and wanted to see her get into a real intimate relationship with Justin. If that did not happen, Austin might tie them up together since the drug had failed. Justin could only act with Renee to avoid the in

Renee grinned, satisfied after a long rest. "Why didn't you sleep a bit longer? This bed is comfortable and fluffy." While talking, she behaved like a fish as she extended her limbs and rolled around in bed childishly. In comparison to her calmness and ease, Justin behaved gingerly and did not dare to move as he lay in bed."Do you have any idea what had happened? We aren't dreaming. We're lying in the same bed," Justin said.He was certain that Renee was not fully awake. It explained why she was that composed. Otherwise, any normal woman would get out of bed with a start and keep screaming if they found herself lying in a man's bed."I know!" Renee said. After having a great time rolling around, Renee faced Justin with her head on her arm while lying on her side. "I wanted to drink wine to say sorry to you guys last night, but your family drugged the wine. You drank the same wine when you tried to stop me. We were controlled by the drug and were locked up in this room. T

Renee instantly understood what Justin meant by that. It turned out that the incident was just a part of the Baldwin family's plan. If she left, the Baldwin family would not easily let her off the hook.Justin still cared about her at a time like that, which moved her. "Thank you. You're great." Renee cried; she had no idea how to repay him. "You don't have to thank me. I'm not so great, either. I just hate that they always pester me." Justin purposely sounded relaxed. He finally calmed himself down as he casually grabbed some bandages to bandage his wound. Then, he lay in bed.He slept on one side of the bed and said to Renee, "It's late. You should rest early. This bed is large enough. If you don't mind, you can lie in bed too."The bed was large. It was more than enough even if Renee and Justin lay there."I…" Renee hesitated briefly before she finally got in bed. She trusted Justin. If he wanted to do something indecent to her, he would have long done that. He would no

"I don't know how to tell you. I'm sure you can understand." Renee could not bring herself to say more because it was a humiliating privacy. She might as well keep it to herself."Let me guess…" Justin's gaze grew sharp as he went straight to the point. "The man in your story is Stefan, isn't it?" Silence washed over Renee as she kept her head bowed. It was a silent approval.Justin burst into reckless laughter, which was scary. He looked down at his cut wound and laughed pathetically. "This is why he could make you fall in love with him, and I couldn't. I'm too cultured compared to him.""Don't say that, Haze!"Seeing how defeated Justin was, Renee became uneasy. "It isn't written in the stars for us. Plus, I've fallen in love with Stefan a long time ago before I even got to know you. I also rely on him physically and psychologically. I can't control my feelings. It's not something we can change. We…" "Stop!" Heartbroken, Justin pushed away everything in front of him and s
