Chapter 1447
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Seraphina skipped to Stefan cheerfully, carrying a thermos. She unscrewed the thermos, filling the office with the rich smell of the soup, and said, âI made you chicken soup. Itâll be good for your stomach, since you have gastritis. You should hurry up and drink it.â
âWow, it smells so nice, Ms. Murphy! I didnât expect you to be so good at cooking,â Elijah praised Seraphina from where he was.
Stefan flipped through a contract aloofly as he sat at his desk. Without lifting his head, he said to Elijah coolly, âDrink it yourself if you think it smells so good.â
Seraphina gritted her teeth at Stefanâs cold tone as she poured the soup for him.
However, Elijah was no fool. He immediately waved his hand and refused, âNo, I wouldnât dare to. This is what Ms. Murphy made for you, Mr. Hunt, so who am I to drink it? Iâll just have some water.â
Seraphina inhaled deeply to calm herself, then turned to Elijah with a fake smile. âItâs alright; I can pour you a bowl if you want, Mr. Young.â
âYouâre so nice, Ms. Murphy, but I was just kidding. Please let Mr. Hunt have itâhe needs nutritious meals like this. You should help take care of him if you have the timeâ¦â Elijah said, then smiled nostalgically. âWhen Mr. Hunt was still married, his wife always came to deliver soup to him, but she was different from you. She gave soup to everyone under the name of the company; she was really a kind and humble person.â
âReally?â Seraphinaâs cheeks turned red in embarrassment. Elijah was quite a thorn in her side, and she had to get rid of him as soon as possible.

At first, Stefan was absorbed in his work and wasnât paying attention to their conversation, but he immediately looked up at the mention of marriage and his wife. âWhat did you say, Elijah? I was married before?â Frowning, he demanded,â Was I married before? Who was my wife?â After he lost his memories of Renee, he had forgotten about many things, including his marriage and children.
âUmmâ¦â Elijah swallowed nervously. He had wanted to tell Stefan the truth many times, but always stopped himself.â My mistake, Mr. Hunt. It was a woman who tried to win you over in the past, and she used to do things like that to please you. As for the details⦠Iâm sure youâll remember everything after your brain surgery this Wednesday.â
Stefanâs brain surgery would be held at eight oâclock in the morning on Wednesday, and the head surgeon was Owen. Owen said that Stefan would regain his lost memories after the surgery, and that he would recall a lot of things on his own. Elijah felt that if he told Stefan about his marriage and children now, his damaged brain might have trouble processing everything. Like everyone else who had hid the truth from Stefan, he didnât want to make Stefanâs brain injury worse.
âDidnât you just say it?â However, Stefan couldnât be fooled that easily. He glared at Elijah fiercely and snapped, âI might have lost some memories, but Iâm not stupid. Youâre lying to me.â
âMr. Hunt, thatâs not what I meant! Ah, itâs very complicated⦠â Elijah clenched his fists, looking conflicted.
