Chapter 1180
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
However, since Liam left, no one sent her any of these cupcakes. She tried looking for it herself, but to no avail, which worsened her cravings.
With the comfort awarded by the cupcake, Renee felt much better. She silently chewed on the cupcake at the table as she looked for the userâs IP address.
Liam glanced at her screen and smiled. âWhoâs the big shot? Why are you personally looking for them?â
Renee waved her hand dismissively, clearly not in the mood for banter.â Oh, you wonât get it, kid. Go along and play somewhere else.â
Liam folded his arms and cleared his throat. âBoss, you can just stop. The person who wrote that article is right underneath your nose.â
âWhat do you mean?â Renee finally turned her attention to Liam, looking the man up and down.
Liam smirked pridefully. âI mean it literally.â
âYouâre not saying you were the one who leaked that information, are you?â
âPleasure to meet you.â The man nodded, patting Renee on the head as if he wasnât scared for his life. âOur boss is really getting smarter.â
Renee felt as if her mind had exploded, and she looked at him in disbelief.â You⦠Why would you do something as pointless as that? And how do you know about my brotherâs past?â
âTo finish the task he gave me. And, of course⦠Itâs mainly because I donât like Stefan Hunt.
âI backed out of our rivalry out of my own will, and he squandered the chance to cherish you and stay by your side! He even intended to marry another woman! How could I possibly allow myself to not mess with him? How could I face my own heart then?â Liam replied with a justified expression, rendering Renee unable to refute his words.
She couldnât help her curiosity either. âSo, what was the task my brother gave you?â
âHe asked me to find a way to get H Groupâs share prices down by ten percentâ¦â
Liam then took out his phone to look at H Groupâs current status, which showed that the stock prices were on a rapid downfall. â I think Iâm going to complete my task soon, and Iâll officially be recognized as your brother.â
âYou guys are so childishâ¦â Renee was speechless, unable to even bring herself to lecture him. âSo that means you did all of this? Including the whole revealing-my-brotherâs-face thing?â
âTechnically speaking, I ripped Quintonâs mask off by accident. I just decided to take this opportunity and go with the flow.â
âGo with the flow?â
âYeah, I know itâs a little insulting, but Quinton was all for it! He wrote most of the article anyway. He even sent me the picture of him before he was scarred.â
âGod damn it!â Renee pinched her nose bridge, feeling rather conflicted.â Are you two mad?
Why did you even do that? Donât you know H Group was about to partner with Azure Group? Weâll only be in deeper conflict after this! They wont be able to reconcile, ever!
âWhy do you want to reconcile?â Liam didnât understand. âBoss, youâve always been a resolute person, and youâre always more than fine with letting go. But whenever it comes to that man, itâs like you turned into some kind of saint! Donât you think heâs hurt you enough?â
âNo, Iâm⦠Iâm doing this for my brother, not Stefan.â Renee sighed heavily.â And thereâs a key figure in all of this, but I think Quinton deliberately hid this from youâ¦â
