Chapter 1011
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
When Francine heard Reneeâs name, her expression immediately became unnatural.
At that moment, she was unaware of Reneeâs current condition but guessed that she must be in great danger since she had fallen into Seraphinaâs hands.
She sighed quietly with a tinge of melancholy, but she had no regrets.
It was all because that wicked woman had sought to harm her only son with a passion. Besides, Renee did not regret it, which was why Francine felt that it was not outrageous to hack her into pieces.
âYou know that Stefan divorced her. Itâll be useless even if you call her. Just keep in mind that Stefan dislikes unrelated people staying overnightâ¦â
She sounded unconfident, so she gradually became impatient. She tried to drive him away. âItâs getting late. Lisa, see him to the door.â
However, Jovanâs teasing smile turned chilly. He went straight to the point and stated, âAunt Francine, donât think of getting rid of me that easily since I came to you at this hour. I came asking for her. I wonât leave if I canât get her.â
âWhat⦠Who are you looking for?â
âYou should know very well who.â
Jovanâs eyes turned ruthless as he said, âI heard that she met an actress called Shirley this morning.
She contacted no one after that. Whatâs more, I heard that you took this actress called Shirley as your goddaughter in previous years just to please Stefan. The only person she contacted after Renee disappeared was you⦠I feel that thereâs something wrong with this affair. Aunt Francine, shouldnât you explain?â
Consequently, Francineâs expression became more hideous. She snorted and retorted, âYouâre her brother-in-law, but you care so much about your cousinâs ex-wife. Your extensive connections go way beyond my expectations too. I think youâve planted a lot of spies around my family and me these years.
Well, youâre indeed awesome.â
âLikewise. Donât you and Stefan know full well of my actions too?â
He smiled coldly as he sighed.
âSo, you came to make a scene here in the middle of the night because of that woman?â
Francine interrogated as her eyes became sharp.
She thought that Jovan had learned about Stefanâs blindness, so he purposely came to find fault with him. Unexpectedly, he came for Renee. It made Francine hard to handle.
âYes, you can say that.â
Jovan nodded. He did not at all hide his strong purpose before he answered honestly, âLet me have her, and Iâll leave right away. If you refuse to hand her to me⦠Umm, Iâm sure youâre well aware of my temper.â
âPreposterous!â
Francine said disdainfully, âWhy do you care so much about her? Donât tell me that the rumor in the gossip magazine is true. Are you her first love? You guys have been entangled with each other from god knows when, and she cheated on Stefan?â
âI donât deny that I like her very much, even more than the love Stefan holds for her. But itâs unimportant whether she likes me or not. After all, I have ways to make her fall in love with me in the future.â
Jovan raised his chin, and his smugness came on display, admitting his feelings for Renee openly.
âYou⦠Youâre a pervert! How dare you covet your sister-in-law. Iâll call Master now and ask him to disown such an immoral and shameless b*stard like you!â
âWhatever!â
Jovanâs gaze was full of viciousness and recklessness. âDo you think this lousy identity is meaningful to me? Iâve long had enough. I just want Renee now. Donât test my patience. Let me have her now!â
Francine knew for a fact that Jovan would lose his mind inexplicably, but it was beyond her expectation he would react that way because of Renee. Hence, she said coldly, âSheâs not here. Just go ahead if you want to make a scene. I have all the time in the world to waste with you.â
She would never tell Jovan about Reneeâs location because doing that would only create greater trouble. She felt that she should avoid unnecessary trouble.
After all, she would prevent him from getting close to Stefan and learning about his blindness. At most, he was just a young man who was unable to stir up any trouble.
âWell, you refuse to tell me, donât you⦠Fine, Iâll ask your son then.â
Jovan knew for sure that Francine must have done something to Renee. It meant that Renee might be in grave danger at the moment.
