Chapter 429
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
However, the guard said, âIâm sorry, Iâm afraid someone has already taken the body away.â
âWhat? Took away?â Liam felt extremely anxious. âWho?â
âOne of Mr. Huntâs family members. They took him away last night.â
âSo that means the Hunts know! But⦠why isnât there any news about it?â Liam fell into deep thought.
He turned his phone on and browsed through the latest news. However, the stock market, the media, and even H Group were as calm as still water.
âThis is strange! Could this just be a misunderstanding? Was it someone else who died?â
âIâd like to ask⦠Was that body⦠the CEO of H Group, Stefan Hunt?â Liam tried to confirm this with the guard.
âI think so. The one who took the body away was Mr. Huntâs father himself,â the employee replied honestly.
âWell thatâs weirdâ¦â Liam remained doubtful as he returned to Reneeâs ward.
Coincidentally, Leia had brought her boyfriend, William, over to visit Renee.
âRen, I was worried sick about you! Why did you go missing for an entire night! How did you end up like this? Who did this to you? Iâll take revenge for you right away!â She said angrily as she hugged the woman, her eyes watery.
âNo one. I just wasnât careful and tripped.â Renee nudged her friend reassuringly, seemingly confident. â
Donât worry, this is just a minor injury! I just need to rest for a couple of weeks, and then Iâll be ready to go!â
William seemed eager to help. âMy family studies medicine, and my father knows many famous orthopedists. I can recommend some to you if youâd like, Miss Everheart.â
Leia quickly chimed in. âIs that even a question? Of course sheâd need them! Call them over right now!
We have to get Ren the very best doctors. Iâll only feel relieved then!â
William nodded. âOkay, Iâll make the call right now.â
Renee found it quite troublesome, but after hearing that they were orthopedists, she responded, âThank you in advance, Mr. Jones. I may not need it, but Stefan Hunt does.â
âStefan Hunt? What does this have to do with him?â Leia instantly caught on, quickly questioning the woman. âDid he hurt himself like you did?â
âHe suffered from worse injuries just to save me. He almost had his leg amputated too. Good thing heâs a tough guy though, and managed to survive. But I think itâs still best to have a doctor check on him just in case.â
âHuh⦠Wait!â Leia couldnât process all this information at once. âI didnât mishear her, did I? Hunt saved Ren and almost lost a leg? What kind of romantic scenario is that?! Why would that scumbag do something like that in the first place?â
âDidnât Liam tell you? I really have to thank him this time, which is why we should have a famous doctor check on him. How else would I return the favor?â
Renee wasnât one to be ungrateful, and purely wanted to repay the manâs kindness.
Liam just so happened to overhear this, and quickly stepped in. âI donât think thatâs necessary. The legendary Stefan Hunt would be able to hire any doctor he wishes!â
âIf youâre too enthisiastic in helping him, he might misunderstand your intentions and think that youâre still into him or something. It might lead to some unnecessary drama⦠unless you actually want that.â
Leia found Liamâs advice reasonable. âStefan Hunt is so self-absorbed too, so heâll definitely think you havenât moved on from him. I think itâs unnecessary too.â
âYouâre right.â Renee nodded. She realized that she was being too hospitable, and it would be hard for anyone to not misunderstandâ¦
The woman then promised the two, and also herself, âIâll be more careful in the future.â
After talking for a while, Leia held hands with William and got up to leave.
âHold on.â Renee called out to them. âI have something Iâd like to discuss with Mr. Jones privately, is that okay?
