The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 618
With that, only Renee and Jovan were left standing in the men's restroom awkwardlyLike a villain who had succeeded in bringing his evil plan to fruition, a sinister yet childish smile cropped up on Jovan's face. He told Renee, "You see? You clearly made the right choice in leaving your ex-husband because all he ever wanted was a tool to perfect his image. He was never interested in you, he never understood you, and he never even wanted to understand you. What a failure.""Why, thank you for the enlightenment, Jovan!" Renee could not help but roll her eyes as she pointedly sneered, "If you have that much spare time, why don't you worry about yourself instead? How stupid can you be? You've been played like a fiddle and wiped out from your position, yet you're still here bragging like an idiot!"Jovan wasn't angered by her words, and instead approached Renee with a cheeky smile. "So, you're worried about me, huh?"Renee let out a frustrated snarl and kicked Jovan in the butt before r

"I'm going to hang up now," Renee told Leia with a sigh. "It's time to pick up the kids."She then ended the call and headed straight to Monte Perry Kindergarten.The streets in front of the kindergarten were always full of cars and crowded with people. All kinds of luxury cars were lined up at the Monte Perry Kindergarten gates, making it look like some kind of car exhibition was going on.After a while, Renee finally found a parking spot. She parked her car and was about to get out when Margaret suddenly called her."Hello?" Margaret's voice was shaky with panic. "Ms. Renee, are you here yet? Come quickly! Something… something happened!""What happened?" Renee asked quickly, then said to Margaret soothingly, "Don't panic… Speak slowly.""I'm useless, Ms. Renee! I deserve to die a thousand deaths! I was about to pick up the kids just now, but the teacher told me that… that…" Margaret sounded as if she was about to burst into tears."The teacher told me," she continued anxiously

Ms. Apple looked somewhat conflicted. Her eyes darted around before she cryptically answered, "Please don't worry, Ms. Everheart. The twins are definitely fine, and I'm sure they'll be home in no time. As for the person who took them away… Please forgive me, but I really can't tell you anything about him."Hearing this, Renee dug her nails into her palms and forced herself to remain calm as she said with a sneer, "This man really is powerful, isn't he? He's so powerful that he can easily kidnap other people's kids in public, and even their own mother doesn't have the right to know about it.""He is indeed very powerful. In fact, only a handful of people in the whole of Beach City would dare to go up against him, so…" Ms. Apple paused for a few seconds, then told Renee in a lowered voice, "The twins both called him Daddy without hesitation and were very friendly with him, and the man himself… is connected to the Hunts.""Connected to the Hunts, huh?" Renee frowned slightly as she tho
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 621
Despite the servant's efforts to stop her, Renee strode in boldly and said sarcastically, “I was once a part of the Hunts. I treated Grandpa Timothy like my own grandfather, so there’s no need to stop me from visiting him, right?”Meanwhile, Timothy, who was sitting at the head of the table, was scowling fiercely at Stefan. He was just about to teach him a lesson after learning about the rumors about Stefan, Renee, and Jovan.However, his eyes sparkled when he heard Renee's voice, and he turned to her with a wide smile. "Ren, my wonderful granddaughter-in-law, I was just about to teach this clueless boy a lesson. I'm delighted you're here! Come, child, sit by me."He motioned to the unoccupied seat next to him and urged her to have a seat. Meanwhile, Stefan sat on the opposite side, his expression frigid.The servant added a new set of tableware to the table. Renee was unable to say no to the old man, and was forced to sit at the table with the Hunt family.The jovial atmosphere i

Stefan gingerly wiped his lips with a handkerchief, then turned to Renee with a smirk. "Truth be told, I really don't know why you're here. Might it be because you still love me and want to rekindle our relationship?""Excellent, excellent!" Francine clapped her hands gleefully. "Renee, if you wanted to rekindle your relationship with Stef, you should have just said so! There's no need to beat around the bush, and you don't need Stefan's opinion about it—he's a moron who doesn't know anything. I can help you both make it happen. We'll arrange for a larger and better wedding too."Timothy nodded his head approvingly. "I'm glad you're finally considering it. You should've reconnected with Stefan sooner. This is something that the whole Hunt family agrees on!""No way! That's not it!" Renee's cheeks reddened, and she started to panic. "I'm not here to reconcile with him. In fact, I'm going to become a nun and live alone for the rest of my life. I'm never going to get back together with
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 623
Stefan's gaze was frigid as he stared at Renee. "There's no one here, so you can just be honest with me. What happened to them? They need to be released immediately. I'm willing to give up everything for them—even my life. Don't push me, Stefan. I'm warning you." Renee clenched her fists tightly, her entire body tense. She had given birth to Aiden and Abigail and raised them with all her love and attention. They weren't just her life. They were also the Everheart family's future.Stefan might have tried to take them away, but she would definitely get them back."I'm not sure what you're saying." Stefan looked perplexed as he frowned at her. "Who are you referring to?""Stop acting dumb!" Renee burst out furiously. She was so enraged that she approached him, grabbed him by the collar, and warned, "I'll count to three, and if you don't give them to me, I'll break your neck. You already know I'm capable of it!""You want to break my neck?" The corners of his lips curved upwards into

Renee could rule out that the Hunt family planned to ambush her since the electricity had gone out due to a faulty circuit.She let out a sigh of relief and relaxed somewhat. She let go of Stefan's neck and tried to move away from him, but his strong arm suddenly circled her waist. He pulled her towards him, and she tumbled onto him with a yelp. When she felt his warm frame against hers, she immediately froze. "What... What are you doing?"Stefan remained silent, but his grip on her tightened.Renee lost her cool and hissed at him, "Stefan, don't you dare try to take advantage of me. Let me go before I hurt you!""Stop moving!" Instead of letting her go, he held onto her like his life depended on it."Clearly, you don't value your life. Do you want me to break your arm?" She was going to push him away when she heard sniffling. She hesitated, her eyes wide in disbelief.'Is Stefan… crying?' She thought in shock. She immediately calmed down, taken aback by this unexpected occurren

“You can't open the door until the electricity is restored," Stefan said bluntly.Renee's jaw dropped. "If the electricity doesn't come back on by tonight, I'll have to spend the night with you!""I can handle it. It's only one night, after all." Stefan was so calm that Renee wondered where his anxiety from earlier had gone. Only now did she realize that she had fallen into his trap."Didn't you say you had PTSD and that your organs would fail and you'd die?" She asked him suspiciously."I'll be alright if you're here to give me hugs. I can handle you," Stefan said smoothly.Renee was speechless."You might be able to stand me, but I can't stand you," she remarked, rolling her eyes. "I have to get out of here today!"She wanted to use the light from her phone to try to figure out how to open the doorknob, but unfortunately, her phone ran out of battery and turned off.The room became dark once again."Damn it!" Her patience had reached its limit, and she patted the ground arou

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
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2395
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
