Chapter 1275
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
âUmmâ¦* Ezra averted his gaze nervously. âDamn it! Stefan ordered me not to expose it before it was done. How could I have made such a silly mistake?â
âNo, Iâm⦠talking about the hospital. We have targets to hit. This hospital has a record of ninety-nine percent recovery, so we canât fail this for the sake of the hospitalâs reputation,â Ezra lied quickly.
Convinced, Renee left it. Her main priority was to ask for Owenâs help to save Quinton.
âEzra, do you know where Doctor Wagner is? Iâll go ask him personally if you guys canât persuade him.â
Renee was used to doing things herself and didnât want to owe others, so she preferred if she could go talk to Owen herself.
âI learned from Doctor Wagnerâs friend that he often goes fishing at sea. In fact, he should be out now.
If it goes well and heâs in a good mood, we might be able to persuade him. If not, it might be difficult,â
Ezra said honestly. Owen wasnât attached to a hospital, so whether he took on a job or not depended solely on his mood. He was neither greedy nor afraid of power, so it was very hard to deal with him.
Though he was a hospital dean, Ezra couldnât even contact Owen, so he wasnât sure if Renee would have any luck convincing him.
âFishing at sea? Only the south of Beach City is suitable for that. Iâll head there to meet him now,â
Renee said immediately.
âIâll go with you,â Haze said firmly.
âNo, stay and help me take care of Quinton. Heâll be in danger if we leave and someone tries to attack him,â Renee insisted.
Haze looked reluctant. âYou need to go out to sea to meet Owen, and thatâs very dangerous. Itâs not safe if you go alone.â
âWhatâs there to worry about? The only thing out there that can harm me is probably a shark,â Renee scoffed.
âYouâ¦â Haze couldnât argue, so he held his forehead helplessly. How was he supposed of her if she insisted on doing everything herself?
Winning her heart was no easy task.
Wasting no time, Renee quickly went to the dock for fishing in the south of the city. People who needed to go out to sea had to book a speed boat or yacht, so she went to the center of the dock and found the person-in-charge. âExcuse me. Did a man called Owen Wagner book your yacht to go out to sea today?â
The person shook his head cautiously. âIâm sorry but we canât reveal our clientsâ information.â
âI can pay you.â
âNo, that wonât do,â the man said, but eventually added, âBut I can tell you that a yacht went out to sea two hours ago. Itâs a private yacht that parks here for us to watch over and maintain. Itâs 28 miles southeast now. That person is a rather famous figure. If youâd like to go meet him, maybe you can rent a boat too.â
After that, he sized her up and smirked. âIâm used to seeing women in bikinis, but maybe those rich snobs might find your look intriguing. You donât have to thank me, just come and rent my boats more often if you make it.â
âWell, thank you. May you be blessed with good health.â Renee knew that this pervert probably thought she was a woman who tried to hook up with rich men, but she didnât care since he had given her a lot of useful information.
âOkay, get me a boat then. I want the cheapest one.â
