Chapter 423
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
âOkay!â Renee couldnât quite remember where she saw these numbers, and didnât have the time to think about it. She quickly typed in a number into the keypad and dialed it. The call immediately went through.
âLiam, itâs me. Do you have time to pick me up from X cemetery?â
Meanwhile, Liam had been panicking over Reneeâs sudden disappearance, and had nearly barged into the Hunt manor to look for her. Now that he had received a call from her, he was extremely agitated.
As the two continued making conversation, Stefan could no longer listen and snatched the phone, yelling. âEnough! Sheâs hurt, so get over here!â
At that moment, Renee finally noticed that Stefanâs hands were covered in blood. This immediately sparked her anxiety, which made her rush over to him. âHunt, you⦠where is the blood coming from?
Are you hurt too?â
âIâm fine.â Stefan retracted his hand swiftly.
âStop lying! Youâve lost so much blood already! Quick, tell me where youâre hurt!â Renee shouted as she used the flashlight on the phone, checking the manâs body thoroughly.
She soon found the manâs left leg drenched in blood and dislocated, with the wound clearly in quite a terrible stateâ¦
âYour leg!â Renee covered her mouth in disbelief.
His condition was just unimaginably horrible, and she had no idea how he managed to carry her all the way up here with his leg dislocated like this.
âJust how painful was it to take a single step, especially with me on his back?!â
âI said Iâm fine! Stop looking at it!â Stefan snatched the phone again. He had tried his best to keep it all in, as he didnât wish to let her see him in such a state. However, it was simply inevitable, and he feltâ¦
embarrassed.
âI donât think itâs just a sprain, I think your leg is dislocated! We have to secure it properly now, or your leg will be as good as gone⦠Let me help you!â Renee then took her shirt off, in hopes of treating Stefanâs wounds with simple first aid.
âAh!â However, she somehow forgot that she herself was hurt as well. She couldnât move either.
âYou should be the one receiving treatment!â Stefan stumbled over, holding the womanâs injured leg in his hands, then using her shirt to secure it in place.
âDonât mind me, your condition is worse than mine! You-â
âShut up, will you?!â Stefan didnât allow Renee to move, and treated her wounds according to his limited first aid knowledge. However, as he continued to bandage her leg, he started feeling incredibly nauseous at the sight and smell of bloodâ¦
âHey, Hunt! Hey! Donât tell me youâve fainted again! Wake up!â Renee nudged the man with her foot, feeling worried and helpless at the same time.
âDoes this guy still have a fear of blood? Heâs fainted at such a critical moment!â
However, she was rather conflicted, thinking back to how he endured the intense pain to carry her to the main road.
âWhy cant he just⦠act cold and distant like he usually does? Why did he risk his own life, and put so much effort into saving me? What does he want from me?â
Meanwhile, Liam had finally arrived at the area, as he had sped all the way there.
âYou twoâ¦â Seeing both Renee and Stefan on the ground together, Liam couldnât help but feel his heart drop to his stomach
