The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 462
Renee pressed her hand against her forehead. She felt exhausted on the inside. "I think you shouldn't be asking this," she said in a defeated tone.From her perspective, Liam was the person who understood her more than anyone in the world. Why would he make her choose at such a critical juncture?Liam's bright, charming eyes gradually dimmed as he lost hope.He began to murmur in a self-deprecating way. "Alright, Boss. You don't have to answer my question. I already know the answer.""Liam, don't do this. You know exactly how I feel. You're…" Renee trailed off."Just let it be!" Liam suppressed his hurt feelings and forced a smile upon his face. He then looked deeply at Renee. "From this moment on, I'm no longer your fiance. We'll be like siblings. I'll still do whatever I can to help you, but I'll no longer tie you down. You can live freely and choose the man you truly want to be with."Every word he said felt like a piece of himself getting stripped away.But what could he do

Renee nodded calmly. "What are we waiting for? Let's go!"Hence, the two left affectionately in front of all the employees of Hunt Enterprise.The employees sighed in disappointment."I can't believe how much Ms. Everheart has changed in four years. She's no longer the kind, gentle, and naive woman I knew. She has no morals to speak of, and she flirts with everyone she meets!""This means Hunt my Everheart has become completely irrelevant. I don't like her promiscuity. She doesn't deserve Mr. Hunt. He has been saving himself all these years, but she couldn't even refrain herself from a womanizer like Jovan. I feel sorry for Mr. Hunt…""It's not just Mr. Hunt I feel sorry for. I feel sorry for Liam too. He's completely innocent!"The employees decided they no longer liked Renee. One of them even said, "Hey, have you heard? Mr. Hunt hasn't returned because he's severely injured. In fact, it was all thanks to Ms. Everheart.""It's not just that. According to a reliable source, the

Under the night sky, a silver Bugatti Veyron rumbled along the tarmac at a devilish speed.Renee looked blankly ahead in the passenger's seat. Although she knew very well that Jovan, seated in the driver's seat, wasn't a good person, and there were definitely many traps ahead, she still remained calm.She might not have been confident when dealing with other people, but she was experienced enough when it came to idiots like Jovan.Upbeat music that sounded like rock blared in the car.Jovan was visibly happy. He was smiling from ear to ear. With one hand on the steering wheel and the other tapping against the window to the beat of the music, he looked very handsome under the amber glow of the street lamps."If you haven't slept, if I haven't stopped chasing, if being awake is a crime, take these promises away, exchange them with…"The man, swaying from side to side while humming along to the song, looked somewhat like Stefan. His facial features were exquisite, and he seemed extr

Renee would never have guessed that her cousin-in-law, Jovan, who would hurl insults at her at any given opportunity, was actually her fan!This was way too magical!"Based on what you said, you've known me since before I even married your cousin. You're also my fan. Am I right?" Renee was still in a state of disbelief, but she wanted to find out if this was true.Ocean's Word was a band she formed with a few friends from the lab back in college when she was bored. Neither she nor her friends were science freaks who'd only stay in the lab. They were all into music and dancing.In Renee's case, she was a lyricist and a composer. She also had an angelic voice.In the beginning, Ocean's Word recorded its own single and published it online. After gaining a large fanbase, they started performing in underground bars. Every show had a full audience, and its fanbase kept growing.Not getting married would've been much cooler, now that Renee thought about it. The feeling of being on the r

For that reason, Renee had to refrain from appearing too curious. She sat quietly in the passenger's seat.Soon, the traffic began to ease as they gradually entered the suburbs. The surroundings gradually got darker. There weren't even street lamps to light the road. It only got creepier by the second. Unsurprisingly, this was the kind of place where bad people did terrible things.Renee wasn't afraid, however. With her abilities, she could fight ten more Jovans even if her legs had only just recovered."Hey… Where are you taking me?" Renee was getting a little impatient. She was visibly unhappy."Be patient. We'll be arriving soon." Jovan said before making a turn onto a small, dark road. There were lush cypress trees on both sides of the road, which stood upright like triangular flags.Renee rolled down the window and looked around. Why did this place seem a little familiar?After that, she suddenly recalled that this was the gravesite where she and Stefan had fallen and gotten

Jovan's smile broadened. He stared at Renee with glistening eyes. "Are you worried about me?""..." Renee remained silent."If bleeding a little can make you worry for me, I don't mind getting beheaded just to see you smile," he added."Go to hell!" Renee rolled her eyes before tossing him a handkerchief.Jovan dangled the handkerchief in front of his nose and took a big whiff at it. He then reluctantly wrapped it around his bleeding neck before tying a knot. "Such a wonderful handkerchief. It's a pity," he said with a sigh."You've truly gone mad!" Renee rubbed her temples. She regretted her decision.At first, she thought Jovan was a big idiot, and she could easily extract important information about Hunt Enterprise from him. To her surprise… He was only pretending to be dumb all this time. He was a mad person and not as easy to manipulate as she had thought.Playing along would only delay her own plan. It even resulted in conflict between her and Liam.'I made a huge mistake
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 468
Renee shook her head. "I don't have an answer, and I don't want to make a guess. I'm also not in the mood to listen to your nonsense. You'd better get out of the way, or I'll run you over!"Jovan sat lazily in front of the car. He ignored Renee's warning completely. "I thought you've grown much stronger in the past few years, but you're still as much of a coward as ever. You don't even have the guts to face the truth. Don't you think it's sad that you have to lie to yourself like this?""I don't know what you're talking about!" Renee exclaimed. "I'm saying this for the last time. Get out of the way!"She placed her foot on the gas pedal. All she needed to do was step on it lightly, and Jovan would be crushed into a pulp of flesh."Hehe. Do you think you'll be able to change my dying cousin's fate by running me over?" Jovan slowly got up. He propped his arms on the hood and smiled creepily at her."Weren't you curious why I brought you to the middle of nowhere? Look around. Don't y

Jovan lifted his foot and turned sideways to look at Renee. He smiled. "I was never a gentleman, to begin with. I bring shame to the family. It's not like you've never heard about that… I couldn't do anything to Stefan when he was alive, but I can insult him all I want now that he's dead!"Renee's eyes filled with tears. "You're mad. Even if Stefan's dead, he'll always be stronger than you!"Jovan's eyes glistened briefly. He approached Renee one step at a time. "Is that so? What can he do right now? My footsteps are on his face, and I'm about to sleep with his wife in front of him. All he can do is watch. Do you call that strong?""You’re shameless!" Renee slapped Jovan hard across the face. "You're a loser. Don't ever think you can get close to me!"Renee still felt angry even though she'd said those things. She lifted one leg and kicked Jovan in the stomach."Hmph!" Jovan curled up and kneeled in front of the tomb.Renee stood behind him and stepped on his back. "This is how y

Renee's heart was well guarded. No one else could win her over except Stefan. Justin had tried hard and was once hopeful. But in the end, it was still futile. He ended up with endless humiliation. Hence, he learned from Renee and was on guard against others. He merely did not want to get hurt or feel disappointed."That's it. You can be the bold hero yourself."Justin swung off Jovan's hand and left."Damn! He's quite heartless too, just like Stefan!" Jovan was angry for no reason. He found it a pity since Justin had given Renee up, just like what Stefan had done. Those men claimed to love her but did not choose her firmly, and left at the most critical moment. After Justin was gone, the atmosphere in the room became more dangerous and stressful.Austin coldly stared at Renee and asked contemptuously, "My grandson is gone. Can you stop pretending?"It was hard to imagine such a scene. Austin once doted on Renee as if she were his granddaughter. But now, he regarded her as

"Oh, you're quite serious about it." Austin faked a smile, then addressed a subordinate standing beside him. "Since you insisted, I'll grant your wish." In a while, his subordinate came with a tray with dozens of needles in various shapes. Most of the needles were used for treatment. The needle would cause quite a lot of pain with only a slight jab. "Okay, let's stop joking. We're considered famous people. Stop using such a childish trick! It's embarrassing…" Jovan realized how serious the situation was. While teasing, he rebuked Austin's subordinate so the latter would remove the needles. However, the subordinate did not heed Jovan. He did not take Jovan seriously at all. Austin's subordinate politely extended his hand and coldly urged Renee, "Please go ahead, Ms. Everheart." "Okay." Renee flexed her fingers and took a deep breath. She swallowed and adjusted her mouth, ready herself to take a needle."Hey, moron! Are you going to sit there and watch?" Helpless, Jovan tried

Jovan cleared his throat and assumed his usual casual demeanor. "I lost my mind on the day of the engagement ceremony. I knocked Renee out and took her away. This incident has nothing to do with her. You guys can blame me. I should be the one to hang myself, too.""Jovan!" Renee glared at Jovan. "Don't take the blame for me. I won't thank you, either."Jovan turned and started arguing with Renee. "No, I'm not taking the blame for you. I was just telling the truth. I did knock you out and take you away that day. You didn't leave on your own!"He felt guilty toward Renee, especially when he saw her lying in bed and using an iron wire to cut her wrist so she could run away. It was a great shock to him.He realized he had nearly ruined her, body and soul. At that moment, he no longer wanted to compete for her. He felt that he might as well let her go and grant her wish. He just wanted her to be safe and happy, regardless of who she chose to be with.His greatest wish was to see her
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2382
Both Renee and Jovan finally arrived at the Baldwin residence under Sabre's escort.Austin was waiting in the tea room since he knew Renee was coming."I'm sorry, Grandpa Baldwin. I'm here to apologize to you." Sabre pushed them into the room.After entering the room, Renee realized that Justin was there too, sitting on Austin's left and pouring tea for Austin. Justin was no longer enthusiastic and close to Renee. Instead, he kept his head low and was busy. He did not even look at her, as if they did not know each other. "You want to apologize to me?" Austin sneered. He raised a cup of tea and sipped it. "Stop flattering me. Plus… You shouldn't be apologizing to me."Justin stopped what he was doing, but he was still unresponsive. He stared absent-mindedly ahead as if he were away from reality. He seemed like a different man. Renee had never seen this side of him, which filled her with sadness and guilt. She blamed herself for turning a carefree and bright youth into a gloo

"Cut the crap!" Sabre was a man who had undergone a lot of things and problems all year round. He abruptly gripped Jovan's chin and said coldly, "You can't keep your head for long. You'd better not waste your energy, and you should watch your tongue.""Well, there's something I should say." Jovan didn't resist as he grabbed the chance to touch Sabre's face. "What's your name, dude? Why are you doing this job at such a young age? How much did Austin pay you every month? I'll give you ten times your salary. Just betray him and work for me.""I'm going to kill you!" Sabre was always a serious man, and got furious because of Jovan's words. He was about to slap Jovan before Renee immediately stopped him."Don't do this, Sabre. Let's talk it out. He's the vice president of Hunt Enterprise, but you wanted to slap him. We should keep peace. Plus, he generally never watches his tongue, and he scolds his family more fiercely. Don't take him seriously." Renee tried her best to calm Sabre dow

"I'll come even if you don't welcome me. Bye." Renee hung up. She knew that Justin resented her and feared that Austin might punish her. Regardless, he could not stop her from going to North City. She understood that no one could be at ease if the issue was unresolved. She was the cause of the conflict—the key factor. Thus, she must go there.Finally, the plane took off. Renee fell into thoughts while watching the dense clouds. Jovan sat beside her and noticed her worry. He wanted to hold her hand to comfort her and give her strength. However, his hand stopped in midair. He decided against holding her hand. He knew that she did not need his consolation or reassurance. Instead, she would only resent him."Don't worry. It's going to be okay." Jovan sounded casual. "I'm the culprit and will be blamed. You don't have to be scared."Renee turned and frowned at him. "I don't want to see you in danger, either."Jovan looked serious before he beamed. "Well, I'll risk my life for
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2379
Hence, Renee did not beat around the bush or refuse to answer Jovan's question on purpose. She had no idea what her heart wanted and could only see how things went."What?" Jovan narrowed his eyes, wearing a complex expression. The current situation gave him a great sense of danger. He teased, "It looks like I've underestimated that guy. He can end up your man though he's your fallback guy.""Can't you watch your tongue?" Renee became angry as she stuffed a piece of cake into his mouth. "Eat something and stop talking."At that time, her phone rang. Justin did call her back—just like what Jovan had said. Renee quickly picked it up, sounding anxious. "Justin, why didn't you answer my calls? I called you several times!""What's the matter?" Justin sounded extremely icy. Renee had never seen him act that way—it felt unreal. She said carefully, "I want to ask where you are now.""What's the matter?" Justin kept his cold demeanor and repeated the same question without saying anythi
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2378
A minute passed by. Renee was holding the phone but had yet to get a call back from Justin. She was not that very confident."Why isn't he calling me back? Should I call him again?" Although she did not want to be embarrassed, she already did after making six calls. She was fine with it already."Calm down. Let's wait a little longer." Jovan sipped some coffee and sounded at ease."Will he call me back?" Renee held her chin, uncertain. For the first time, she knew how aggrieved a kiss-ass felt. In a way, she was considered one as she tried to please Jovan.Jovan placed the cup of coffee down and looked at Renee with leisure and surprise. "Are you that eager to get in touch with him?"After all, based on his observation as an outsider, he knew Renee did not love Justin. Renee only cared about Stefan and regarded Justin as merely a friend. Logically, she shouldn't be that upset."Of course." Renee was open about her feelings and added honestly, "I did want to spend the rest of
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2377
Jovan was not mad. Instead, he smirked with satisfaction. "Yeah, that's right. Never let me get that. We need to keep owing something to each other and always get tangled up with each other!"Renee could not take it, and acted like she was about to vomit. "I can't keep on eating. It's disgusting." Although she had made such a claim, she sat down and was engrossed in enjoying the food. She was not as tense as before and started to relax.Similarly, Jovan started eating with satisfaction. The current situation was what he wanted the most. She hated him, but it was her true self.When they were full, it was almost time for them to board the plane. Before boarding, Renee hesitated for a long time before calling Justin. She gave him three calls, but he picked up neither of them.On the other hand, Jovan was sitting in the exclusive lounge for the passengers of first-class cabins. He was flipping through magazines to kill his boredom when he noticed Renee's phone. Jovan smiled and
