Semua Bab The Untouchable Ex-Wife: Bab 1451 - Bab 1460

Two days later, Renee changed into a surgical gown and walked into the sterile surgery room of the manor with Jovan."Please lie down on the operating table." The eye surgeon instructed the nurses to help them onto the table after a brief check-up and anesthesia testing. Renee gave her full cooperation throughout the process, staying quiet the whole time. The image of her in the large surgical gown with her long hair wrapped up in a cap made her look like a little lamb off to the slaughter. She laid down on the operating table, the surgical light above her so bright that she couldn't open her eyes. Halos of light swam in her vision, and she felt as if she was stuck in a nightmare. "Do you regret it?" She heard Jovan's indifferent voice nearby. "It's not too late if you do.""No, I don't." Renee smiled pathetically. "I'll never regret since I'll be getting so much money." "Okay, then. I promise I'll reward you generously," Jovan promised firmly. After the anesthesiologist fini

"No, that's not true!" Renee said in panic, worried that Adie would investigate her whereabouts."I'm safe, and nothing has happened to me in years. So, don't worry, take care of Abby, and listen to Margaret. Understand?" Before Renee could end the call, Adie said bluntly, "No, Mommy, you've gotten into a lot of trouble in the past few years, and you still get into trouble. I think something's happened to you, and that's why you don't want to video call us... How about this, Mommy? Turn your camera on for a second and let me see you; I'll believe you if there's really nothing wrong.""Umm, well..." Renee stammered, then blurted out, "What are you saying, Adie? I'm hiking with my friend, and the signal is bad. I'll hang up first!" After that, she quickly ended the call, feeling guilty."You're so lucky, Ms. Everheart! Your children are cute and smart, and they love you so much!" Lisa remarked, looking wistful."I'm lucky, but they're not..." Renee sighed miserably and explained, "Th

"No, it was Stef who made the decision, I just saw it through. It's his life, so I can only respect his choices," Francine said with a melancholic sigh. Back then, she was overbearing and used to control every aspect of Stefan's life. She even used to meddle in his marriage, until Stefan's relationship with Renee took a turn for the worse. Maybe she should have just let them be since Stefan cared so much about Renee… Maybe she shouldn't have given Briar a chance.Naturally, she didn't want to make the same mistake again. "But do all of you respect me? Have you ever thought about the consequences if something does wrong? Have you thought about what would happen to me if he really does regain his memories?" Seraphina's eyes watered as she asked them desperately. She turned to Francine, looking aggrieved. "You know about my feelings for Stef, Madam Francine, and you know what I've suffered for him. I've been with him when he was blind, on the verge of death, and even when the executive

Seraphina stepped forward and hugged Francine, patting her back reassuringly. "Don't be upset, Madam Francine—this might be a good thing. Now, Stefan doesn't have to take so many risks. It's meant to be, don't you think?""I'm not sad, but I find it strange that the doctor got into an accident right before the surgery..." Francine glanced at the operating room worriedly. "Stef will be furious when he finds out, and he'll definitely look into it.""Umm..." Seraphina swallowed, her anxiety obvious. Putting both of his hands in his pockets, Elijah turned to Seraphina with a fake smile. "Didn't you want to stop the surgery earlier, Ms. Murphy? Why do you look so worried then? To be honest, I'm not sure whether you want him to have the surgery or not." "What are you trying to say, Elijah?" Seraphina glared at Elijah and snapped, "I don't care about the surgery—I just want Stefan to be safe and healthy. I'll support whatever he does as long as it helps him get better.""Really? Don't

Owen was immediately surrounded by people."How did the surgery go, Dr. Wagner? Is my son okay?" Francine asked Owen agitatedly. "Don't worry. The surgery was very successful, and everything will be okay as long as he gets good rest for a few days." The long surgery had exhausted Owen, so he didn't speak much and quickly headed to the changing room to change his clothes. There had been a lot of weird things about Stefan's brain surgery, and he needed to talk to Stefan once he'd woken up."Great! He's finally out of danger." Francine breathed a sigh of relief. To her, the most important thing was her son's safety. Seraphina stood nearby with a complicated expression, feeling conflicted. She was relieved that Stefan was safe, but she was also worried about the aftermath of this surgery. "Are you okay, Ms. Murphy?" Elijah walked up to Seraphina and whispered, noticing Seraphina's odd reaction. "I... I'm fine !" Seraphina swallowed and averted her gaze in obvious guilt. Elijah
