Chapter 295
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Stefan was pretty unhappy. âDidnât you just say a good horse will never turn round to graze on an old pasture? Why are you suddenly doing a 180? Arenât you embarrassed?â
Francine pursed her lips and said arrogantly, âI am, but I donât want to miss out on a good woman.
Besides, the reason I was so opposed to you being together before was mainly because you didnât love her and I didnât want you to suffer in a marriage without love. But now, things are differentâ¦â
âHow?â
âBecause youâre interested in her now!â
Francine said with confidence, âAll these years, very few women could catch your attention. Since youâve finally found one who could, of course you need to hang on to her!â
âIâm not interested in her!â
Stefan denied it coldly.
âYou know better than anyone if youâre interested in her. You donât have to convince meâ¦â
Francine sighed and revealed a helpless expression, âAlthough I still donât like her very much, but if you do, Iâll try to. I promise I wonât treat her badly or call her the harbinger of tragedy anymore. If you need me to, I can even try to befriend her, Iâ¦â
âThereâs no need!â
Stefanâs respond was very direct.âItâs over between us, so give it up.â
At the hospital.
Xavierâs broken leg was reattached and put in a cast. He had to stay in bed for half a month.
When Renee arrived at his ward, she found Christopher there.
âMr. Jacobs.â
She nodded at him as a greeting.
Christopher was surprised to see Renee, and it showed in his eyes.
âMiss Everheart! I was just thinking about apologizing to you!â
Christopher told Renee earnestly.
âApologize to me?â
Renee looked puzzled.
âCeciliaâs fine now. I apologize as her ex-fiance. Something must have gotten to her that day for her to lose control like that and accuse you. Please forgive her.â
After saying that, Christopher lowered his head.
He was so sincere that Renee felt a little embarrassed. She quickly pulled him upright. âCome on, thereâs no need for that.â
âPlease donât be mad with Cecy. She must not be thinking straight. Sheâs usually not that irrational.â
âIâm not mad at her at all. I just canât figure out why she would accuse me and claim I pushed her into the sea. Itâs a serious accusation. Sheâs trying to destroy me!â
âI donât know why eitherâ¦â
Christopher said, somewhat embarrassed.
âYou donât know?â
Renee suddenly became curious and asked, âThen how do you know her accusation is not true? Did she confess to you?â
