Chapter 1110
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Since Jovan couldnât see, she behaved more comfortable around him.
âThen why change clothes?â Jovanâs expression seemed uneasy as he pursued the question.
âWell⦠Because my clothes were dirty.â Renee told a white lie, not revealing her encounter with Stefan. Otherwise, being the jealous prick he was, Jovan would certainly overthink.
âYouâre lying.â Jovan frowned, obviously aggravated. âYou said that you would never lie to me, but now youâre treating me like a fool!â
Renee realized that the man must know something. After all, many people came and went from the hospital. Being an old acquaintance there, it was inevitable that someone would end up telling him some kind of information.
âYou say I lied to you, then tell me, what did I lie to you about?â the woman asked carefully.
âDr. David told me about the drowning incident around the lake. You jumped to save a life, so youâre changing because your clothes are wet, not that theyâre dirty!â Jovan replied seriously.
Renee felt relieved and responded. âThatâs right, I lied, but I just didnât want you worrying. That Dr.
David sure has a loud mouth. Looks like we have to change hospitals, or Iâd have no privacy at all.â
She did intend to transfer Jovan to another hospital before this conversation. Now that Seraphina and Stefan were staying on the same floor, she was bound to bump into them again.
Jovan was quite a sensitive person, after all, and he might end up causing a commotion if he were to find out.
âThis matter canât be solved just by transferring hospitals. You havenât even realized the main problem here!â Jovan seemed so oddly serious that Renee found him unfamiliar.
âWhat is the main problem then?â
âYouâre not treating me as your closest, most trusted person!â
âHow⦠did you come to that conclusion? We are dependent on each other now, is that not considered close and trustworthy enough?â
âIâm being serious here!â Jovan was truly mad this time, emphasizing his words to Renee with a frown.
âIf you treated me as your closest, most trusted person, you would have shared this matter with me first! You hid the truth from me just because you didnât want me to worry. But be honest. You just think Iâm too weak to face the outside world! That I need to be taken care of⦠I may be useless, but I am still a man with pride! Do you think Iâd be happy about this?â
âI really didnât think this through.â Renee sincerely apologized. âIâm sorry, I didnât know that you would care so much about these little details. I promise you that in the future if there is anything, I will share it with you first, and Iâll never hide anything from you.â
âIf you really feel sorry, then tell me, is there anything else youâre hiding from me?â Jovan asked the woman intently.
âIâ¦â Renee paused and carefully observed the manâs expression. She was not sure if the man was deliberately testing her reaction.
âDoes he already know about me meeting Stefan?â She wondered.
âIs it so hard to answer?â Jovan chuckled coldly. âIt looks like you really are hiding something from me.â
âI donât mean that, Iâ¦â
âDidnât you just say that you wanted to transfer me to a hospital? I agree.â Jovan sighed deeply. âWe have too many acquaintances here. Thereâs too much gossip spreading about. I prefer to go to a place where no one knows us so that we can live with ease.â
âRight, I think so too. Then Iâll go through with the transfer procedure now.â
