Chapter 1465
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
âI think Adieâs out. Margaret is worried about him and has gone to look for him,â Abby said honestly.
She wasnât surprised that Adie had successfully snuck out; her smart brother was very careful, so she wasnât worried about him at all.
âWhat? Where did he go this time?â Renee asked anxiously. Adie was unusually clever, and it always made Renee worry. However, in her current condition, she didnât know what she should do.
Luckily, at that moment, Margaret returned. She entered the house anxiously, still wearing her apron because Adie had snuck out while she was cooking. âYouâre finally home, Ms. Ren! Please help me figure out where Adie has gone, I canât find him anywhereâ¦â
âDid he say anything before he left? Has he been acting strangely recently?â Renee frowned and asked.
Margaret sighed and said worriedly, âNo, nothing of the sort, but he did think youâd gotten into trouble because you refused to have a video call with him. He said that he wanted to save you, but I ignored him because I thought he was just influenced by those superhero cartoons he watched ⦠Itâs all my fault. I was careless, and I thought he was just like any other kid, but heâs not. Heâs so smart that Iâm sure he came up with a plan to find you.â
Renee carefully headed over to Margaret, touching things nearby to guide her, then patted Margaretâs shoulder comfortingly. âDonât blame yourself, Margaret. I should be blamed for being so careless and making you all worry about me.â
Margaret frowned at Reneeâs odd behaviour, and observed Renee carefully. âWhat happened to you, Ms. Ren? Why are you wearing sunglasses?âBooks Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
âItâs nothing. I hurt my eyes while I was hiking, and my sight was impaired temporarily. Iâve already seen the doctor, and he said I just need to rest for a while.â Renee didnât want to tell Margaret and her two children about her blindness at the moment, or else they would be heartbroken.
âYour sight was impaired?â Margaret covered her mouth in shock. âWhat happened to you, Ms. Ren?
Let me see how serious it is.â
âNo, itâs okayâ¦â Renee tried to stop Margaret again. âThis is just temporary blindness, and it wonât take long for me to recover. Itâs best if we donât touch the area around my eyes because the doctor has just applied medicine on it, and we have to avoid infections.â
âBlind?â Margaretâs eyes widened in horror, and she couldnât accept the cruel reality of it.
Abby was shocked too, and she immediately started to cry.â You canât see anymore, Mommy? You canât see me anymore?â
âNo, itâs just temporary. My eyes will get better if I rest well.â Renee leaned down and hugged Abby, then said soothingly,â
Youâre so cute-of course I want to see you! Donât worry about me. I was hurt before, but I got better too.â
Abby stopped crying, but Margaret wasnât that easy to fool. After all, Margaret had exceptional medical skills, and she could instantly tell that Reneeâs condition was serious.
However, she didnât want to worry Abby, so she just echoed Reneeâs words. âYeah, I donât think itâs very serious. She should get better in two days, but even if she doesnât, Iâll cure her.â
Wiping away her tears, Abby pouted and mumbled, âOkay, I believe you. You have to get better, Mommy. By the way, you donât have to worry about Adie-he took his smartwatch with him. But if youâre worried, you can call him.â
âHe has his smartwatch with him? Why didnât you tell us earlier?â
