The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 19
When Stefan regained consciousness, he realized that he was already laying on a hospital bed, his head wrapped in white gauze.Renee remained by his side the entire time. It was only upon seeing his eyes open did she let out a sigh of relief. However, she sounded distant regardless. “Since you’re up, I’ll be leaving now.”In actuality, she worried for the man, but she didn’t want him to find out.Before she left, she felt him grab her wrist.“Are you alright? Did they do anything to you?” Stefan asked weakly.Despite his condition, his beautiful eyes remained sharp as they scanned Renee from head to toe.The woman returned his concern with a cold smile. “Thanks for worrying, Mr. Hunt. But you should worry about yourself first, especially if you still have the strength to do this. I’m completely fine!”She had loved this man for four years. Once upon a time, she wished for him to show concern toward her as well, even if it were just empty words. Now, she no longer needed his

“Ugh, watch it, you!” Francine hissed as she rubbed her forehead, trying to ease the pain. Once she realized that it was Renee who knocked into her, her anger flared up.“Why are you here?!”“I knew my little Stef would rub off your bad luck!”Renee chuckled coldly. “I’m sorry, please just endure me for another twenty days, okay?”“What do you mean?” Francine lifted her gaze, her tone hostile. “It’s not like you’ll be flying off after twenty days.”“Well, I can’t, but…” Renee shone her a frosty yet polite smile. “We’ll be legally divorced once twenty days are up.“Even if your son were to grovel in front of me, I’ve sworn to never get involved with the Hunts anymore. I figured that would be the best for both of us.”“You… you…” Francine was left in a state of shock.‘What the hell happened? She used to be so obedient back then. She would let me do and say whatever I wanted! Why does it feel like she’s a completely different person now?’“How dare you speak to me that way?!”“

The moment Renee returned to her apartment in West Langsmith, she immediately pulled out her laptop. With just a few clicks, she disabled the virus planted in the Hunt Enterprise’s system, allowing it to return to normal.The negative remarks on the internet soon came to a half, and Hunt Enterprise’s stock price slowly regained stability.“Boss, what’s going on? We’re just getting started. Why did you disable the virus all of a sudden?” Liam sounded agitated over the phone. He called as soon as he caught wind that Hunt Enterprise was recovering. “Didn’t you say you’d focus on your career now? And that you’d be targeting Hunt Enterprise? Don’t tell me you’ve started to feel bad for Stefan. Do you still like him or something?”For the past few days, the malware in Hunt Enterprise’s system resulted in a massive leak of their client’s information. A few of their partners ended their contracts with Hunt Enterprise out of anger and turned to work with a new company instead.On the surf

Renee directed a reassuring smile at the secretary. “Don’t worry, I’ll be able to handle it”After that, she lifted her chin and strode confidently into Stefan’s office. Just as she expected, she found the little mistress, Briar, in there.The woman was sobbing in Stefan’s arms but quickly moved away as soon as she saw Renee enter the office as if she had been caught red-handed doing something bad.“Ms. Everheart, please don’t misunderstand, we were just…”“Save it.” Renee put up her hand. Turning to Stefan, she said, “Sorry for interrupting your date, Mr. Hunt, but I’m here for the divorce settlement. I’ll leave once I’ve obtained your signature.”Stefan rested his arms on his desk and without a hint of emotion on his face, he responded, “Oh that… do you really need it in such a hurry?”‘What the hell is he saying?’ Renee thought as she suppressed the urge to beat him up. Through gritted teeth, she growled, “What do you think?!”“There’s still ten days till we are legally div

Despite being married for four years, they rarely stood this close to each other. The air between them abruptly rose in temperature.Renee’s face was bright red as she tried her best to regulate her breathing. “Yeah, so I hope you can give us your blessing, Mr. Hunt. I’ve given you my blessing after all.”Stefan’s eyes darkened, huffing coldly. “Who is it? Is it Geronimo’s youngest son? If I remember correctly, that guy’s three years younger than you. You know that, right?”His words alone were enough to upset Renee. ‘What? Is he implying that I’m too old? Then why can other men date girls who are decades younger than them, but women can’t date someone just a couple of years younger?“And what about it? Why does it matter to you? Besides… don’t you know that a lot of younger guys prefer mature women now? Oh, how hard it was to resist his adorable efforts when he was pursuing me.”“I don’t care if you’re dating a younger guy, but Liam Osborne is off-limits.” Stefan narrowed his eye

“Please darling, we’ve been married for four years, you know? Even if you did cheat on me… I forgive you, because… my love for you is true… Please… just don’t be so cruel to me…“I wasn’t asking for much either, I just wanted the least valuable law firm that you own. You can’t just divorce me and leave me out on the streets to starve, right? I’ll die!“I’ll give you my blessing… I’ll leave quietly for your sake! I won’t bother you at all, I just want you to be happy!”Renee’s acting was immaculate. Tears were flowing down her cheeks and she damsel in distress. Riled up by her performance, the viewers left countless comments as the stream continued.[What a jerk! Stefan Hunt really is as cruel as they say! How inhumane can he be?!][Men like him should rot in hell! She just wanted a law firm, that’s pocket change for him!][This bastard and his mistress should burn in hell!][I’m unfollowing them! Men are all the same! What a waste of good looks!]Stefan was visibly enraged at t

“Mr. Hunt, calm down! Leave Mrs. Hunt alone!”“You know that domestic abuse is a crime, right? Mrs. Hunt is such a great person! She loves you so much too! How could you ever bring yourself to hit her!?”“We’ll quit our jobs if you dare to hit her one more time! And we’ll file a lawsuit against you for the abuse you’ve put her through!”These people were employees of Hunt Enterprise, specifically the ones Renee handed her lunchboxes in secret to. Looks like the few extra snacks Renee gave them finally paid off.At the time, Stefan and Renee were still in a rather… inconvenient position.Looking from afar, it seemed that Stefan was forcing himself on Renee, using his tall figure as an advantage to her feeble body. To an outsider, it was truly an infuriating sight.Stefan’s actions had caused an uproar. Even his most trusted assistant, Elijah, was on Renee’s side this time.“Mr. Hunt, I have to be real with you here.“Mrs. Hunt is a great person. You should know that. For the pas

After the live stream incident, Stefan found himself in a PR disaster where netizens cursed him out daily. Some of them even went as far as to expose his mistress, Briar’s past relationship with his late brother.Everyone was absolutely furious with Stefan’s indecency, especially with how he was sexually involved with his brother’s girlfriend. Hunt Enterprise, which had barely recovered from the recent cyber attack, was also affected by this. Their stock prices tanked as soon as news of their CEO’s scandal spread.“Stef, what in the world happened in that live stream? Just look at how you treat Renee… How could my son be such a bastard!“Your cheating is now being published on every platform too! Aren’t you proud of yourself?!“And how dare you abuse Renee! If I weren’t traveling abroad to find a suitable heart donor for your grandfather’s surgery, I’d make sure you won’t see the light of day!”The sun had just risen, but Stefan had already received an earful from his father.W

Renee covered her lips, her tone filled with disbelief. "I…cut myself." Justin leaned against the corner and frowned deeply. He was in deep pain."Why did you cut yourself?" Renee was scared out of her wits and grew more sober. In her panic, she threw herself at him and tried to stop his bleeding.Justin reacted aggressively as he waved his dagger and warned fiercely, "Get away from me! Don't touch me!" "I…" Renee paused, too afraid to act recklessly. She pointed at his wound and said, "I'm just worried about you. You're bleeding. It must hurt a lot. Why did you hurt yourself?" "It's better to be in pain!" Justin gnashed his teeth and said in agony, "The pain will knock some sense into me, so I won't act like an animal and lose control of myself.""I see…" Stunned, Renee was moved to tears. She understood why he cut himself. Surprisingly, he wanted to stay sober and not be controlled by the drug in the wine.He could have used her to satisfy his desire, and she would never b

"You're playing with fire!" Justin leaned close to Renee's ears and said fiercely, "What do you think there is in the wine? Maybe I'm not someone who will take liberty on women, but I can't promise that the wine won't make me so." "So, you're saying that the wine…" Suddenly, Renee realized the wine was not as simple as she thought. She also understood why Rose had behaved in such a mysterious manner. "Stay…away from me!" Suddenly, she became frightened and wanted to keep some distance from Justin. She knew that people could not be trusted completely, especially under the effects of chemical reactions. Things would certainly get out of control. Justin probably did not want to do anything to her, but both of them would lose their minds under the effect of the wine and do something that would fill them with regret. The only way to prevent such an incident was to avoid each other."You want to stay away from me, but it's too late now. I'm no saint. I'm just a normal guy!"Just

"I'm so thirsty!" The burning sensation of the wine made Renee thirsty. She wanted to drink some water.In the dark, she heard some rustling. The next second, something was on her lips. It seemed to be someone else's lips. She wondered if someone had secretly kissed her."Who are you?" Renee grabbed the person in front of her and interrogated angrily, "How dare you kiss me without my permission! Do you know who I am? I'll cut off your lips!""Let's see if you can do that or not." The man sounded dull and drunk, but he was also overbearing.Although Renee was drunk, she could discern who it was. She called out in the dark and tried to confirm her doubt. "Haze…?" "Yeah, it's me," Justin admitted, but he did not plan to let her go. He used a more overbearing manner and trapped her between him and the door."What do you want?" Renee panicked. She wanted to kick him away, but she did not resist when she learned that it was Justin. After she had done so many things to hurt him, s

The servant walked forward with trepidation and helped Justin back to his room. Austin's eyes were dark. He whispered to his assistant, who nodded and immediately carried out his order.After two glasses of strong wine, Renee felt dizzy and could not stand steadily. "It's weird. Is this wine this strong? I just had two glasses of it, but I feel quite dizzy." It was hard for her to exit the hall. She could not stand properly, so she supported herself against the wall."Ms. Everheart, you didn't seem well. Let me help you to get some rest." Austin's assistant caught up to her and stood behind her. He even sounded respectful. "It's… fine. I can go back to my room." Renee waved; she didn't want to trouble others. Besides, she did not want others to see how miserable she was. She had assumed that she was good at drinking and would not get drunk, but it seemed like she had overestimated herself. After two glasses of wine, she became quite drowsy. She would not easily leave if s

Renee blinked and smiled brightly at Justin, asking him, "Are you worried about me?" "No, I'm not worried about you!" Justin said angrily. "I don't want you to get killed here. I can't explain it to your brother and kids. It's hard to handle the three of them."He was not lying. Although he had befriended Quinton, Adie and Abby might make a scene there if they realized that Renee had drunk so much wine at the party. They were witty, always full of ideas.Hence, it was better not to cause trouble. Before they could make a scene and things get out of control, Justin must stop Renee. He wasn't worried about her at all. "So, you're not worried about me?" Renee's gaze turned dull as she sighed. "It looks like you didn't forgive me. So, I must drink this glass of wine." Something was wrong with Renee, or perhaps she just wanted to torture herself. It seemed like she insisted on drinking the wine. She swung off Justin's hand and gulped down the wine."You're out of your mind!" Justi

The aged white wine was strong. Ordinary people would find it hard to drink a glass of it. Yet, Renee had drunk two glasses of it consecutively. It was a little dangerous. Everyone at the dining table was initially watching the fun, but they showed Renee some pity after she drank two glasses of wine consecutively. After wiping her lips clean, Renee staggered and said to Justin, "Let me toast to you now. I've wronged you the most." Justin, sitting there, said with a poker face, "You don't have to say sorry to me. We don't hold each other any grudge. After all, we can't make others fall in love with us.""No, I must apologize to you. It's for my sake." After that, Renee used a bigger glass and filled it with wine."Whatever!" Justin frowned and ignored Renee. He had no idea what was wrong with her. He had yielded and let her off, but she stubbornly wanted to keep drinking the wine.He wondered if she had forgotten the fact that she had just recovered from a serious illness. She

Suddenly, Justin became mature and stopped making jokes. He talked steadily and was no longer emotional. It filled Austin with worry because it made him feel like Justin was an emotionless robot.In comparison, he liked Justin's previous self better. At that time, Justin was simple and sentimental. He was the grandson Austin doted on the most.Sophia grinned and commented, "Dad, you don't have to worry about Justin. Men will change. Previously, he was just a childish kid even though he was in his twenties. He didn't know how to see through people's pretense. But he's all grown up now. He knows what's right or wrong. That's a great thing!" As a mother, she naturally did not want her son to get hurt. Although she favored Renee and wanted the latter to be her daughter-in-law, she would give up since Renee had let her son down and harmed him. All she wanted was to see Renee get away from her son."Yes, you're right. People need to grow up. He has grown up a lot lately, but the price

After a while, a servant quickly came back with a bottle of wine tied with a piece of red cloth. "Sir, Madam, this bottle of white wine was brewed more than ten years ago. It comes with a rich taste and is strong. I'm sure it's suitable for Ms. Everheart to toast to everyone as a form of apology.""That's good. That's what I want." Rose accepted the heavy bottle of wine. Although it was yet to be unscrewed, she could smell its pungent scent. "I won't easily let anyone drink this. Plus… Believe it or not, a glass of this wine can knock out anyone here." Rose carried the bottle of wine and walked around the table. Finally, she stopped in front of Renee. "I'm letting a sinner like you enjoy such a great thing today. You must drink all of it. You can't waste it.""Huh? Does she have to drink it all? I'm afraid she'll vomit from drinking.""People will lose themselves with only three to five glasses of this wine. If they drink half of it, they might get alcohol poisoning no matter

If any Baldwin demanded an explanation from Renee, she would not resent them."Fine, I won't go easy on you since you said so." Rose laughed recklessly, looking malicious. Everyone knew Rose was fierce and malicious. But none of them said anything, including Justin. They behaved like onlookers and wanted to see how Rose would punish Renee. "Please go ahead." Renee nodded and sounded very calm. "Don't worry. Regardless, you were the only woman my dear grandnephew had loved and wanted to marry. So, I won't be harsh on you. If not, he won't forgive me." At that point, Rose purposely paused and wanted to see how Justin would react.However, Justin merely sat there indifferently and had no intention to get Renee out of the predicament. Hence, Rose became bolder. "Well, let's do this. You've wronged not only Justin but everyone in my family. Since you're here to apologize, you should toast to all of us. Then, we can forget about this."After that, Rose turned to Austin and asked
