'What's wrong with him today? Is he in a drunken fit? Why did he go berserk all of a sudden?'"Lean your head closer." William was wearing white gloves. He was ready to use professional tactics to apply anti-allergic medication for her. After calling her name several times, she seemed to have still not heard him. All her attention seemed to be attracted by the noise outside. "Oh, I'm sorry."It was only then that Leia noticed his instruction. She obediently leaned her face closer to him."This medicine is a bit stimulating, so you may feel a bit of pain when I apply it to your face. But it's highly effective, and it can help reduce the swelling rapidly. Just bear with me." William patiently introduced the medication to her, and his techniques were very gentle. "What did you say... Ah!" However, she still did not listen to him. On the other hand, she was all ears while listening to Xavier's words from outside. When she heard of something, she inevitably laughed. After tha

Leia gave William a disdainful look and said coldly. "I don't have to inform you about my relationship with him, do I?" William appeared defeated. He even sounded slightly anxious. "Lei, don't be mad. I just feel that he's not a good man. He looks like a playboy. You'd better stay away from him so you won't get hurt." "Hmph! Even if he doesn't look like a good guy, he's better than a liar like you!"She then grabbed his collar. At the same time, her eyes were full of hatred. "It was merely because of my generosity that I let you stay alive. It doesn't mean I've let bygones be bygones and forgiven you. You'd better don't test my patience." "You can hate me or even kill me. But please don't give up on yourself and get such a man to harm you. You..." Before William could finish talking, Xavier, who was eavesdropping outside, could not remain calm. He barged into the room again. "What did you say just now? Who gave herself up? Who is a bad guy? What f*cking kind of man am I? Te

"William?" When Renee saw him, she was shell-shocked. She thought that such a scumbag like him should disappear from Leia's world. Unexpectedly, he'd be so bold to appear again. When Renee recalled Lei's bad deeds, she was fuming with anger. So, she grabbed his collar. "You're still alive? Why do you pester Lei again? If you're courting death, let me help you!" "Ms. Everheart, I know that you have powerful means. You can kill anyone you want. I'm not the first, nor will I be the last. Go ahead if it makes Lei happy!" William closed his eyes and said with a profound meaning. Renee was confused. She tightened her grasp and frowned deeply. At the same time, she glared at the man in front of her as though he was asking for death. "What do you mean? Why do you make me sound so ruthless and bloodthirsty? Why claim that you won't be the first nor the last one?" William was strangled by her grasp around his collar, so he found it hard to breathe. As a result, his face flushed. He

"Have you heard of a saying? The only two things that one needs to forget about a person are time and a new lover..." Leia's gaze became distant as she said slowly, "I traveled around the world during this period to meet different people and gain new experiences. I want them to heal me."At first, it was ineffective. But God made me bump into Xavier on Quartz Island. He isn't my new lover, but he's indeed like a lifeguard. He pulled me out of the deep sea so I could crawl out of the hurt William had caused me. But now it seems like... I've fallen into a deeper abyss." When Renee saw her downcast look, she felt very sorry for Leia. "You should try to seek his heart if you truly like him. I think he must be troubled by some rancor, so he's so hesitant and awkward. He isn't bold enough to get closer to you. He may be in some kind of abyss too, and he needs you to pull him out." "His rancor..." Leia looked at Renee and smiled with a profound meaning. "Maybe it's you?" "Leia, don
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 991
William pat Renee on the shoulder after seeing her panicked reaction. "Don't worry. You're Leia's friend. She'd be upset if something were to happen to you, so I won't run my mouth either."Renee seemed conflicted, taking a deep breath as she looked toward the man. "You have to promise you won't tell a single soul, and I mean it. I know I did something bad, but I want to wait till the right time to put an end to it all.""Ms. Everheart, you don't have to tell me anything. I don't think you're wrong at all. Briar deserved it! Let's just pretend none of this ever happened. We'll bring this secret to our graves," William said coldly and resolutely.The woman didn't doubt William's words at all. A frosty expression like that indicated that his love had completely run cold. However, she just couldn't understand how people could behave so indifferently after they've had a change of heart.She knew just how much William used to love Briar after all. He was even willing to trick Leia just
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 992
Despite that, Renee had no choice but to meet with Briar, all for Leia's sake."I was actually pretty shocked at the state she was in. Her hair was a mess, and she looked malnourished. And I felt sorry for her…" Renee balled her fists up, a lump rising in her throat. She was inexplicably upset."That's nothing but a facade. That woman is used to acting fragile to gain sympathy. She's actually an evil sociopath deep down. I thought I could fix her if I showed her some genuine love, but… she dragged me down to her level instead!""Hah, you sure are quick to shift all the blame to her. You men are the same. You're just mad because you couldn't handle her.""Looks like Briar is a pitiful woman after all. To think the man who claimed to love her with everything he's got abandoned her in the end regardless." Renee shook her head, sighing.Due to their similar experiences with men, Renee somehow empathized with Briar at some point in time, despite being rivals."She used my tape with Le
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 993
Renee returned to the Carmine Pawnshop after destroying the tape thoroughly. She headed to bed with a heavy heart.She was especially restless for the entire night, with several dreams popping in her head during her slumber.In her dreams, Briar crawled out of the sea with messy hair, with her limbs dislocated and her bones penetrating through her flesh. She then cackled eerily, her face completely drenched in blood."Hahaha, Renee Everheart, your days are numbered… I may not have been able to compete against you when I was alive, but I can drag you down to hell with me as a ghost!" Briar screeched as her bloodied face inched closer to Renee, to the point she seemed to be hovering right above her.The suffocating pain consumed the woman's chest. She flung her arms around in panic, screaming, "No! Don't come near me!""Ms. Ren! Ms. Ren! Wake up! The sun is up!" Margaret worriedly held her hand, sitting by her bed. "Argh!" Renee felt like she was pulled out of an abyss as her eyes

Quinton was reading the newspapers at the time, and as he lowered his hands, a sharp glare was revealed."I… I'm just going to tend to some work in the company. There's going to be a lot of new projects coming in, so I figured I should head back to work after such a long vacation.""You're my sister. As long as I'm here to provide for you, you can have a lifelong vacation if you so, please. Besides, it's been quite dangerous lately, so I'd say you should rest a little longer before returning to your work."Quinton was considered the current head of the Everheart family, hence somehow taking up the father figure role. He couldn't help but wish he could place Renee under lockdown forever just to ensure her safety. After all, Beach City was currently in an ever-changing state. Moreover, he had made many enemies in the past and was very worried that his sister would be dragged into his mess."Oh, now you're just being dramatic. I'm not a weakling! If anyone dares to try something on

"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

Time passed by. Gradually, the pain knocked some sense into Justin. He no longer wanted to take advantage of Renee."Let me get you some water." Renee had no idea what she could do for Justin. After some contemplation, she got to her feet and poured him a glass of water.Finally, she studied the room closely and found that it was a wedding room as Justin had mentioned. Everything was set up according to her preferences, which she had occasionally mentioned to Justin. For example, she loved keeping some ceramic ornaments on the bedside cabinet and hanging some seashell wind chimes at the windows. The entire room was painted in beige and green, which were her favorites, too. Beige gave a sense of warmth, while green gave a sense of gloominess. All of those details became the perfect wedding room for Renee.If everything went on smoothly, she would spend most of her time there, and he would be her life companion. Unfortunately, there were no ifs in the world.Renee handed the gla

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
