The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 9
If one could turn back time, Stefan was willing to risk everything to return to that night three months ago.That night, on the streets of Newrest, the two brothers were assaulted as they were chatting about the family’s future. Tristan had selflessly protected Stefan using his body and took a bullet for him. Moments before his death, Tristan mentioned that he had a girlfriend who he loved deeply, Briar Desrosiers. Moreover, Briar had just conceived their child. “Marry Briar and live on in my stead. Please… give them a complete family.”Stefan couldn’t possibly forget how his brother’s bloody hands held onto him, begging him with despair consuming him whole.Stefan would surely push his brother away if he could turn back time, as it would have been better if he had died instead.Hearing his answer, Briar continued with her pitiful act nonetheless. “Not only have you upset your father for me and the baby’s sake, but you’ve also hurt Ms. Everheart in the process! I feel really ba

Renee was extremely anxious when she arrived at the hospital. She was even more confused when she received the medical report from the nurse. “Ms. Everheart, according to your blood test, it would seem that your HCG and progesterone levels are higher than usual. You have been pregnant for a month or so.”“What the hell? I’m… one month pregnant?!”“Yes. Congratulations, you’re going to be a mother!”Even after the nurse had left, Renee remained rooted to the spot in shock. ‘There’s no way… right? I just fainted once. Once and I’m pregnant? How strong is my fertility? Or was it his fertility that was the problem here? Oh god, why me?!’However, there was no doubt that she was pregnant with Stefan’s child.About a month ago, the Hunt family was just finishing up with Tristan’s funeral as sorrow dawned upon the entire family. It was the first time Renee saw Stefan shed his distant and hostile act. He was so vulnerable that he seemed like a defenseless child, sobbing into his palms

Stefan looked extremely serious and determined this time. Thus, Renee’s grip on her report tightened as contemplation rose within the depths of her heart.Briar, who was standing at the side, seemed to have noticed something off and placed herself in between them. Then, she took her own report out and shoved it toward Renee’s face.“Ms. Everheart, look at my baby. He’s three months old now! We just had an ultrasound done, and the baby is fully formed! Here’s a picture of him… isn’t he so cute? It’s great that we managed to bump into you today. I have to thank you for giving my baby and me a complete family and for such an excellent father like Stefan! Because of your generosity, we can live in bliss!”‘She just wants to brag!’ Renee thought, glancing at the ultrasound picture. She could tell that it really was a fully formed fetus with limbs and facial features. On the contrary, her own child was just an embryo. Some would say that it wasn’t exactly alive, either. ‘How funny. Th

Stefan clenched his fists tightly, unable to respond.In the past, he had always perceived this woman as a boring little puppet with no opinions. He didn’t think she would have such a feisty attitude like this. She didn’t need his protection at all. Seeing this, Briar immediately played the victim card again, clinging to Stefan’s arm. “Stefan, please don’t get mad at Ms. Everheart. It’s all my and the baby’s fault! Ms. Everheart was forced to give up on you even though she loves you so… It’s natural for her to be upset with us! Just let her take her anger out on…”“Nope, wrong again.” Renee scoffed. “You don’t have to thank me because I’ve made myself loud and clear that I wasn’t being generous. I merely threw away a piece of trash I didn’t want, and you just happened to pick him up. That’s why this baby is your karma. I told you the name suits it well, didn’t I?”She then turned to Stefan with a fake smile across her lips. “Indecent people usually get bad karma though, Mr. Hu

A suffocating atmosphere loomed over the entire area within the tall building that served as Hunt Enterprise's headquarters.“Just who the hell did this? It’s been two days, and none of you know how to fix this! Is the technical department filled with sham employees?! You all receive millions of dollars for your yearly salary, and this is all you’ve got?! Our client information has been leaked to the public, and more is being leaked as we speak! If we don’t stop it soon, Hunt Enterprise will become a laughing stock, and you'll all be fired!”Elijah Young’s scolding could be heard throughout the hundred-meter-tall building. As Stefan’s most trusted assistant, he was in charge of most affairs within the company.Two days ago, there was a sudden virus attack on the business system of Hunt Enterprise, causing hundreds of employees to work overtime for two days straight. None of them could get a wink of sleep due to the havoc this virus has wreaked.“Mr. Young, that was uncalled for. We

"Atchoo! Atchoo!"Renee sneezed several times as she arrived at a crowded restaurant, so much so that her ears were burning up.“That’s weird. I swear I’m not sick anymore, but why am I still sneezing so much?” Renee sniffed, wondering if she should take some Tylenol later.“Maybe someone is talking behind your back!” Leia Osborne said as she handed Renee a copy of ‘BC News’. “Oh Ren, you’re in trouble! Your future ex-husband is out to get you. He’s even offered a hundred and fifty million as a reward!”As Liam’s twin sister, Leia was also very close with Renee. However, she didn’t worship her like how her brother did. She was more like Renee’s best friend. Whenever the two got together, banter and hilarious memories would ensue. Renee scanned through the newspapers and chuckled with disdain. “If he has the power to do this, he should think of how to mend that flawed business system instead! It’s been years, and yet their system is still as weak as ever. It really didn’t take muc

The owner of the cocky voice was Bradley Stokes. He had a cigarette in his mouth and five underlings following behind as they walked over to Renee. “Remember how your parents owe me a fuck ton of money and then decided to report me to the police for illegal trade? Yeah, I had to pay a fine of millions and was held in custody for two whole weeks!“When I was finally out and ready to get revenge, I found out those two wimps ended up jumping off a building! Fucking hell! You’re their only child, aren’t you? Now that we’ve bumped into each other, tell me… just how many times are you going to grovel to earn my forgiveness?”Leia jumped out of her seat and roared at Bradley. “Grovel?! Over my dead body! Get lost if you don’t want to die!”Bradley was furious to have been insulted. Shoving his finger in front of Leia’s nose, he said, “Who even are you, you little brat?! This is a personal matter, so you should take your own advice and get lost yourself!”“Consider this a warning!” Leia

However, those screams were Renee’s, but Bradley’s.“W-what happened?” The underlings exchanged looks of unease.Five minutes later, Renee returned without a scratch on her. She cracked her neck, and her face remained expressionless as if nothing had happened. Not even a single strand of her hair was out of place.“Have you dealt with him?” Leia asked.“Mm-hmm, it’s been years since I did this, so I’m a little rusty. It took me two extra seconds to finish him.”“Don’t be so humble, Ren. You may have used an extra two seconds, but it sounds like you got ten times stronger! That guy screamed like he saw an actual ghost! Is he even alive?”“He’s probably still breathing, at least,” Renee said coldly as she turned to the underlings. “If you wish to see your boss live, get him to a hospital right now.”Although the underlings had no clue, they could tell that something was off after hearing their boss’ wailing. Hence, all of them rushed off, visibly worried and afraid.Leia, on the

If they fell out with each other at that time, Adie could casually make a few viruses. He couldn't fight them head-on, but he could at least make the properties under the Baldwin family plummet."Same with me," Quinton chimed in, shooting Justin a cold and threatening glare. "If you guys are lovey-dovey, I'll sincerely give you my blessings. If you let her down, I'll ruin your family."The air grew fierce because of Adie and Quinton's warning. "Uh…" Justin was clueless about how he should respond to them. Feeling awkward, he raised the food. "Let's eat something.""This is a serious moment, and I'm still waiting for your reply. I don't want to eat anything!" Quinton kept his solemn face, his tone far from joking."Yeah, say something!" Adie urged Justin and hoped to get a reply."I…" For the first time, Justin felt stressed. Both Quinton and Adie were difficult to handle. Undeniably, Renee's family was powerful."Okay, stop it! What are you doing? How could you bully the host h

Abby blinked and felt that Adie was right, so she stopped resisting it. "Adie, you're right. I think Mr. Baldwin is a pretty good guy though he's not as handsome, mature, charming, and capable as Daddy…"Abby couldn't stop talking. She compared Justin to Stefan and mentioned endless aspects where Justin was worse than Stefan.Coincidentally, Justin came with a lot of local delicacies for Adie, Abby, and Margaret when he learned that they had come. He happened to witness that scene. "Mr. Baldwin isn't as smart as Daddy. Plus, his voice isn't as pleasant as Daddy's. Sometimes he's more childish than us though he's an adult…""Ahem, ahem!" Renee noticed Justin's arrival and immediately cleared her throat to try to stop Abby from commenting on Justin. Unfortunately, Abby didn't stop. It was unknown if she did it on purpose or if she admired Stefan too much."But…" Abby finally stopped talking about Justin's weaknesses.A sigh of relief soon escaped Renee. She knew Abby was abou

Quinton couldn't understand why Renee would be so obstinate when she was generally straightforward and casual."You don't know." Renee sighed and kept her past with the Baldwin family from him. She stood Justin up back then and ran away from the Baldwin family. When Austin learned about that, he nearly made her pay a heavy price for it.At that time, she learned about how dangerous Austin was. When he was happy, he could give all kinds of rewards and make one feel superior. But if he got unhappy and was provoked, he would make one pay a heavy price."Forget it. Let's not talk about that." Renee looked ahead and said curiously, "I wonder what kind of surprise he got me. I hope it's not too much.""I know what it is." Quinton raised his chin and smiled. It looked like he was aware of what the surprise was. "What is it?""Let's go. You'll know when you reach there." Austin asked Renee to head to the West Chamber because the surprise was there. When she reached, she opened the d

Renee wasn't expecting anything when she heard about the surprise. On the contrary, she was scared and wondered what kind of shock it would give her. She knew the Baldwin family's favor and tolerance toward her was more than she could accept. Things might get troublesome if she failed to give a fair response for such kindness… She walked out of the mansion with Quinton, who could tell that she was uneasy. "Renee, why do you look this anxious?""Do I?" Renee snapped back to reality and forced a smile. "I'm pretty happy. I'm not anxious at all." Quinton looked at Renee while shaking his head and sighing. "You might have fooled others but not me. You're unhappy."They were twins who shared a telepathic connection, and Renee looked displeased. Of course, Quinton could tell.Renee stopped pretending since they reached a rather quiet spot. She exposed her true feelings and said, "No, I'm not. I just feel ill at ease."She knew Quinton was the only one she could show her true feelin

Austin wanted to help when the Everheart family was down and out, but he could not bring himself to do so because he was trying to save face.He had thought that the Everhearts could soldier through since they were strong and had support from the Hunt family. Then, he learned about how serious the issue was when he read about the news of Renee's parents killing themselves. However, it was already too late when he wanted to help them at that time…"No, it's not too late," Quinton said coldly. "I've been investigating the families who attacked my family that year and got a shocking list. My family is still not strong at the moment and is too weak to take revenge on them. So, I want to…""No, that's not what you want." Renee could guess his request and immediately interrupted him. "We can't rush if we want to take revenge. Plus, this concerns our family. We can discuss it between us. And our family is still weak. We'll do it once we get stronger."She knew Quinton hoped to get the B

Austin was sincere. His wedding gift represented a great sum of wealth and a form of security for Renee's future."No, that's too valuable! I can't take it." Renee wanted to make a simple request, but had yet to come up with a suitable one. Unexpectedly, Austin offered such a valuable gift. She found herself unworthy of that. "I want to give you that, so you don't have to care about anything else. Everything belonging to my family will be yours and your husband's in the future. Of course, it isn't a big deal for you to manage a piece of land in advance," Austin said straightforwardly. He sincerely regarded her as his family. Since he regarded her as his family, he would favor anyone related to her and be tolerant toward Quinton. He would also want the best for her. Renee understood how the Baldwin family valued her, especially Austin. It warmed her, but she couldn't accept such a gift as she stammered, "Yes… You're right, but…" "Okay, Renee. Let me handle it for you."Quinton

Austin hurriedly explained, "I did think that way at first. But after conversing with him, I changed my mind right away. I think he's an outstanding young man with a unique mind, but he was forced to take the wrong path at first by the difficulties in life. It isn't a big deal. We can remedy that.""Uh, is that true?" Renee didn't expect Austin's attitude to change that fast. She glanced at Quinton and wondered about his charms. She wondered how he could easily win the old man over with a few words in such a short time. "Okay, we've cleared things up. Since your family is here, we can discuss the arrangement of your engagement ceremony with Justin."Austin was delighted.He promised, "Quinton, you're Ren's family. Just tell us what you want. I'm sure my family is good enough to fulfill your request.""Grandpa Baldwin, that's unnecessary…" Renee hurriedly tried to turn him down. "Justin and I got together because of love. I don't want anything or formality. Plus, you gave me an

"Nonsense!" Austin valued that fountain pen the most, so Quinton's words were humiliating for him. "My soulmate got this present for me. How could he lie to me?" The fountain pen was not a big deal, but if Austin found out that he was cheated, it would be very disheartening."If you don't trust me, I can ask my subordinate to airship the real fountain pen I keep. You'll know which is real by comparing both." Quinton sounded confident."Fine!" Austin was enthusiastic. He waved and added, "Get your subordinate to deliver the item here. If my fountain pen is fake, I'll demand an explanation from my soulmate!"Quinton didn't hesitate. He quickly fished his phone out and texted Chase. When he got the reply, he snapped his fingers and said, "Just wait. The thing will get here tomorrow morning at the earliest." "Well, I like the way you handle things. You're fast and decisive. You don't hesitate at all. You look just like Maurice. I admire you for that." Looking at Quinton, Austin coul

Renee woke up early the next day. After she was done washing up, a servant arrived and asked her to head to Austin's study."Okay, I'll go now." For an unknown reason, Renee felt worried. Although the Baldwin family had let bygones be bygones and treated her as their own, she still felt inexplicably uneasy.She had witnessed Austin's wrath and knew how dangerous her current situation was. Her words or expressions might infuriate Austin. If so, she would be doomed forever. During the conversation the day before, she noticed that Austin was bothered by Quinton's background. He sounded like he wanted to eliminate that trouble. Renee understood why Austin wanted to meet her alone. He definitely wanted to criticize Quinton and make her express herself properly. While she was walking toward Austin's study, Renee wondered whether she should contact Justin. After all, she told him yesterday that they should face any issue together. However, though she was holding her phone, she c
