Chapter 1449
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Instantly, Seraphinaâs features twisted into a hideous snarl. She glared at Elijah and sneered icily, âWhat exactly are you trying to say, Mr. Young? Do you doubt my feelings for Stefan?â
âIâm not doubting your sincerity towards him, but I just want to know how deep it runs⦠How much would you be willing to sacrifice for Mr. Hunt?â Elijah asked bluntly. He didnât care if Seraphina thought him selfish or overbearing; he just wanted to be sure of Seraphina before he tried to help her get closer to Stefan. After all, Renee had almost killed Stefan, so he had to make sure Seraphina didnât have any ulterior motives.
âIâm willing to do anything for Stefan, including giving up my lifeâ¦â Seraphina bit her lip as she recalled what happened in the past, her eyes watery. âIâm sure you donât know this, but⦠When that womanâs brother went mad and kidnapped Stefan, I suffered a lot so Stefan could come back safely.âBooks Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
Elijah frowned, staring at her curiously. âWhat happened?â
âIâm sure you know how much Reneeâs brother hates Stefan, right?â
âYeah, I do. Theyâd been fighting for a long time, but now, theyâve let bygones be bygones and made peace with each other.â Elijah didnât meddle in Stefanâs grudge against Quinton, and only occasionally gave Stefan opinions. He always felt that it was best that they put an end to their feud, but some of the Hunt Enterprise executives encouraged them to fight so that Quinton could be defeated once and for all. In the end, Stefan had chosen to put a stop to the fighting, which was why he had gone through all that trouble to hire Owen for Quintonâs surgery. Luckily for Stefan, his kindness was rewarded when Owen was willing to help him get back his memories.
âWell, they made peace, but what about me? Have they ever thought about making it up to me?â
Seraphina snarled, clenching her fists as her eyes burned with hatred. The doctor who was tending to her wound looked at her in surprise.
Elijah asked the doctor to leave, then carefully asked, âCan you tell me what happened?â
âYou should ask Stefan about itâ¦â Seraphinaâs body trembled as she sobbed, âI used my body in exchange for Stefanâs freedom⦠That crazy Quinton ordered his men to defile me. Iâve scrubbed my body countless times, but that disgusting sensation still haunts me. An ordinary person might have gone mad and started killing people, but Iâm stronger than that. Not many people would be as selfless as me!â
âWhat?â Elijah was speechless, completely shocked by Seraphinaâs words. However, he didnât doubt her because no woman would willingly admit to having gone through something like that.
âI think you should know how sincere I am towards Stefan now. No one loves him as much as I do,â
Seraphina confessed, wiping the tears running down her face.
