Chapter 409
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
The study was big and dark, with rows of bookshelves.
Stefan turned on the light expressionlessly, only to find Old Mr. Hunt sitting on the sofa, causing him to step back in shock.
âGrandpa, why are you trying to scare people instead of sleeping?â
Old Mr. Huntâs face was stiff. While leaning on his cane, he scolded, âIâm trying to scare myself to death. Iâm sick of worrying about my children and grandchildren every day. Iâm better off dead!â
âThere you go againâ¦â
Stefan rubbed his forehead and stabilized his emotions, then walked up to the old man and squatted to meet him in the eye. He patiently asked, âDid something happen today that make you unhappy?â
âItâs nothing, Iâm lamenting my own uselessness, thatâs all. My old eyes are so blurry that I canât even see a person clearly now.â
The old man shook his head, sighing.
He thought back to the time when he followed General Everheart and fought against enemies on the battlefield. He used to be so brave and spirited.
But now, he couldnât even walk steadily, or talk properly, or see clearlyâ¦
Old Mr. Hunt suddenly took out his phone. His old fingers pressed the screen a few times before he said, âOh no, my eyes are not that good. Stef, come and help Grandpa take a look. Whoâs the woman in this video? Her skills are good.â
âWhich one?â
Stefan leaned over to take a look.
It turned out to be the viral video of Renee.
He instantly understood what the old man was doing.
Therefore, he squinted slightly and feigned ignorance, saying, âYeah, who is she? Probably a small time influencer. These are probably all scripted.
These people would do anything to be famous. Letâs not watch it anymore. Itâs all fake.â
Stefan tried to grab Old Mr. Huntâs phone, but the trembling old man suddenly became extremely lively.
He warned, âYou stinky brat, stop feigning ignorance. Open your eyes wide and take a good hard look at the woman in the video.â
âOkay, Iâll take a good hard look.â
After watching it again, Stefan said without hesitation, âI remember now, this is the actress that Xavierâs company has been promoting in recent years. Her nameâs Shirley White⦠Do you wanna see other photos of her?â
He did not want the old man to know that Renee had returned to Beach City. Otherwise, considering the old manâs style of doing things, it would surely cause a storm in the city.
Besides, Shirley and Renee looked kinda similar, so he should be able to bluff his way out of this.
âNonsense!â
Old Mr. Hunt was furious. He gave Stefan a hard slap. âDo you really think Iâm blind? This is my granddaughter-in-law, Renee! How could you not tell me that sheâs back? Do you really think I donât go online?â
âLet me tell you, not only do I know that sheâs back, I even watched her live stream! I even gave her a donation!â
When the old man said this, his expression was very proud. He sneered,â Thereâs a fool who donated 4 million dollars. I wonder who he is. If you have that kind of awareness, I might have two great grandchildren by now!â
Stefan:ââ¦â
He was surprised to find out that his grandfather, who was nearly a hundred years old, who was almost completely out of touch with the outside world, and who rarely used electronic devices, actually surfed the internet regularly. He even saw Stefanâs embarrassing moments!
If Stefanâs identity as the top donor got exposed, he would really die of shame!
âGrandpa wants to see her. Invite her over for dinner.â
The old man waited for Stefan all night for this.
âYouâll have to do that yourself. I donât think I can get that appointment. As you can see, sheâs really popular now so sheâs very busy nowadays.â
Stefan said sarcastically.
Renee had already cut off their relationship cleanly. He did not want to take the initiative to contact her because that would be too embarrassing!
âCan I? Okay, as you wish.â
Within the vigorous and shrewd eyes of Old Mr. Hunt, interesting ideas emerged..
