Chapter 1177
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
As Renee scrolled through the trending news, fury swelled in her chest.â Damn it! Which uncivilized swine leaked this?! Once I find out, I swear Iâll strip them nude and leak it onto the internet for three whole days!â
Below those articles were Quintonâs terrifying appearance, in which the videos and photos were captured in high definition. The way her brother scrambled to pick up the mask in those videos really made her heart ache.
The netizensâ comments on the entire situation were hard to hear as well, especially with the use of phrases like âhideous,â âtroll,â and âdeformed.â
Renee held onto her phone, her voice panicked, and her eyebrows furrowed. âNo, no, these articles have to be taken down! Quinton canât see any of these!â
Leia was sitting next to her at the time, reading through all the hate comments. She sympathized with Quintonâs situation, especially since she had long treated him as her brother as well. Hence, it was only natural that she was infuriated.
âThese people are crossing the line! They should wash their mouths with soup! Their words are so horrendous that even the devil himself would be disgusted!â 1 She then looked through all the photos and videos, and that was when she noticed that they were all taken from the same angle. This gave her an idea.
âHey Ren, look at the angle of these photos. It looks like theyâve all been captured by the same person. We just need to retrieve the CCTV footage in the banquet hall, then wonât we be able to find out who leaked this?â
âOh! Why didnât I think of that? Youâre so smart, Leia! Did both you and your brother get some kind of stat improvement? Youâre so amazing!â Mwah! Mwah! Renee felt much more relieved and kissed Leia a few times on the cheek.
âUhm⦠Stat improvement?â
âWhy does that sound like Ren was insulting me in another way?â
âAh, whatever, Ren praised me! Iâm the best in this world!â
Renee got up from the sofa and headed to check the cameras right away.
Just then, Quinton and Liam entered, arms wrapped around each otherâs shoulders after seemingly having one drink a little too many.
âWhat are you two doing here? Isnât it Liamâs party? Everyoneâs out there dancing and drinking! Why donât you join in?â Quinton seemed rather tipsy, but it was obvious he was in a good mood.
âWellâ¦â Renee quickly hid her phone away. âYou guys go ahead. Leia and I want to go for a walk outside.â
At the same time, she gestured to Leia, who quickly caught her drift. Leia scratched the back of her head and said, âIâve had enough hangovers, so Iâm cutting off alcohol lately.â
After that, she quickly rushed to Renee, and they walked out of the room, hand in hand.
Quinton didnât mind them and continued dragging Liam along by the shoulder for yet another round of drinks.
âI wish you well for tomorrow, Liam! Letâs hope you pass the test! I believe in you!â Quinton was starting to find a fondness for this little loyal subordinate, treating him as one would treat their future brother-in-law.
âDonât worry, Quinton, making H Groupâs share prices drop by ten percent is an easy task!
Itâs not like Iâve never done it beforeâ¦â Liam said, then paused, staring back at the man with a meaningful gaze. âAnd I think⦠our plan had just worked.â
On the other side, Renee and Leia successfully found an employee and retrieved the footage of Quinton and Liamâs fight.
Leia was more observant between the two and quickly clicked on one of the videos with the most views and shares. She then compared it with the camera footage and pointed to a bald, chubby, middle-aged man.
âLook! Ren! Doesnât this look⦠like the location this video could have been taken? This guy mustâve spread the video!â
