Chapter 230
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Reneeâs face turned red for some reason, and she avoided Stefanâs gaze. Her mind went blank, and she didnât know how to answer him.
Fierce pride rose in Stefan and he continued triumphantly, âYour silence tells me that Iâm right. You still have feelings for me, donât you? You canât move on.â
Renee had nowhere to hide. She made several mistakes while dancing and Stefanâs feet suffered the consequences, i She was a coward! Renee was furious at herself, and gathered the courage to speak. After taking a deep breath, she looked up daringly into his eyes.â Mr. Hunt, it seems to me that youâre very self-
obsessed. I had never fallen for you to begin with, so how can I move on?â
âYouâre acting tough againâ¦â Stefan sighed, then leaned down to murmur in her ear, âYou know very well that youâre in love with me.â
Reneeâs face turned even redder. She wanted to deny it. but the song suddenly came to an end. Stefan immediately went back to his indifferent self, and let go of Renee. Though they had both been dancing intimately a moment ago, they were now behaving as if they didnât know each other. They both kept their distance from each other.
Much to Reneeâs disappointment, Stefan turned around and looked for Shirley again. Once he found her, he walked up to her and asked, âDo you want to have a drink with me?â
Shirley had been distracted when she danced with Julian earlier. Her eyes had only been on Stefan and Renee. Although Julian was also very charming, her feelings for Stefan were stronger.
It had been love at first sight.
Shirley didnât want things to end between her and Stefan and was hoping he would take things further.
Hence, when Stefan asked her that, she felt excitement bubble up in her. She nodded hastily and said, âSure, itâs an honor.â
The two of them walked past Renee, not even sparing her a glance.
Renee, meanwhile, felt as if a car had just run her over. Her heart ached and her face crumpled. Stefan Hunt was pure evil!
Julian shrugged nonchalantly, a little upset that his plan didnât work. âI tried my best.â
Renee and Julian returned to their seats.
Liam was a little worried when he saw Reneeâs crestfallen expression. He asked with a frown, âBoss, are you alright? Did that jerk say something mean to you when you danced together earlier? You seem to be in a bad mood.â
âIsnât that expected of him? Thereâs nothing surprising about it.â Renee picked up her glass of fruit wine and finished it in one gulp. âYouâre already divorced, and yet, you still let that jerk affect you,â she thought to herself angrily.
Liam felt sorry for Renee, especially since he knew she was pregnant with Stefanâs children. That scumbag had actually openly flirted with another woman!
Liam clenched his fists tightly. âBoss, what did he say to you? Tell me! Iâll beat him up!â
Renee looked up and smiled bitterly. âSure, go ahead. Come back to me once heâs dead.â
Renee was only joking. She knew full well that Liam might look like a rebel, but he was way smarter than he looked and wouldnât do anything rash.
To her shock, Liam picked up a wine bottle and began walking furiously toward Stefanâs tableâ¦
