Chapter 1142
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Leiaâs heart ached for Renee as she listened to her complaints. âI get it, Renee, I really doâ¦
As for me, Iâm Seraphina to Xavier Stuart. He just wants me as his rebound, and uses me like a tool to make him feel better about his unrequited love. His ex just needed to shed a tear⦠and I lost.â
Leia looked contemplative, then suggested, âWhy donât you cry to Stefan? Maybe heâll remember you then.â
Renee was a little tipsy after all the liquor, and actually thought Leiaâs suggestion made sense. âHey, youâre right. Iâm his real love interest, so why should I suffer?! I should just go to him and start crying⦠I wouldnât know unless I try, right? Make yourself at home, Leia. I have something to deal with right now.â
Stefan had clearly abducted Jovan to get back at her! Spurred on by that thought and liquid courage, and having come up with a plan to demand Jovanâs release, she chugged her drink and got up, ready to leave.
Leia was drawing a blank, and quickly chased after her. âWhere are you going, Renee?â
âTo find Stefan, and cry him a river!â Renee said cheerfully. Stefan was spiteful, but she was sure his grudge would disappear when he saw her cry.
âI-Iâm going too!â Leia exclaimed, wobbling to her feet.
âYes, letâs cry together and hystericallyâas many times as we want until we annoy him.
Letâs see if he will still harass me after.â Renee took Leiaâs hand, and they left menacingly.
Beside them Chase and Plum, Leiaâs maid, were left exchanging glances.
âAre those two really going to be alright?â
âProbably. Individually, theyâre scary when they lose it, so theyâll probably be invincible if they lose it at the same time.â
They held faith in Renee and Leiaâs abilities, and allowed them to do as they liked.
Renee whipped out her phone and smoothly keyed in Stefanâs number-she may have blocked him across the years, but she always saved his number.
She called the number and waited.
Stefan just happened to be chugging glass after glass with Xavier at the most expensive booth seats in Bar of Fame, and had left his phone with Elijah.
Elijah answered Reneeâs call, and the woman immediately snapped,â Where are you, Stefan Hunt?!â
âWho is this?â Elijah asked warily, finding the voice somewhat familiar.
âItâs Renee. You left me a note asking me to find you, didnât you?!â
âR-Reneeâ¦â Elijah was overjoyed-it was the missus! The ancient ship he swore fealty to was sailing again!
âWeâre at the VIP Zone of the Bar of Fame. Hurry over to the second floorâ your seat is waiting!â Elijah said quickly, happy to help.
Hence, Renee and Leia took a taxi despite being absolutely drunk, and headed straight towards the Bar of Fame!
