Chapter 639
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Shelley had some of Reneeâs rebelliousness in her. She was uncooperative and rebuked Stefan. âMr.
Hunt, please be clear. Iâm working as Miss Everheartâs assistant, not yours. Why should I listen to you?â
âIf you want your boss to be safe, do as I say. If we delay, the situation might get worse.â Stefan commanded.
Shelley sensed the murderous aura in Stefanâs eyes and quickly gave in. When she dialled Reneeâs number on her cell phone, she got an automated reply instead. âThe number you dialed is temporarily unavailable.â
âWhy canât I get through? The signal in the building is excellent. Is Miss Everheartâs phone out of battery?â Shelley found it a little odd. Miss Everheart would keep her phone charged if she was still in the office. Why would her phone be out of battery? Was she off work and on her way back home?
âYouâre taking too long!â Stefan had lost his patience. He opened the door, stepped out of his sports car, and headed straight to the office lobby.
Although she was confused, Shelley went after him.
âMr. Hunt, are you going to see Miss Everheart? I think sheâs probably home already. The lights are off on our floor.â
âShe canât be home. Well, unless she can fly.â Stefan was confident. He had been keeping an eye on Renee â there was no way she could have slipped past him.
Shelley used her employee card to access the building. They entered the building and took the elevator straight to Azure Group which was located on the twenty-fourth floor.
Stefan frowned as he looked around. âIs your company really this small? It is not even as big as the office area in H Group.â
Stefan scoffed, âA small workshop like this dares to compete with H Group. I really wonder if your boss is deliberately using this small company to get close to me and win back my heart.â
âPfft!â Shelley burst out laughing. âMr. Hunt, it must be a misunderstanding. Miss Everheart is focused on her career, and has no intention of getting close to you. You donât have to be so egotistical.â
âHmph. She doesnât want to get close to me but chose to set up her company opposite my building.
Look at her office â itâs right opposite mine. Itâs so obvious that even a fool can see it.â
After taking a tour around Azure Group, Stefan went to Reneeâs office. He believed Renee wanted to attract his attention and looked around for evidence.
A smile appeared on his face when he saw the telescope on her desk. âShe even has a telescope.
Whenever sheâs tired of working, sheâs probably stealing glances at me to motivate herself.â
Shelley was completely speechless. The president of H Group was supposed to be a man of few words⦠She did not expect Stefan to be such a narcissist!
âSorry, Mr. Hunt. As far as I know. Miss Everheart has a telescope because she likes astronomy. She wants to look at the stars, not you.â
âYou donât have to explain. Everyone in Beach City knows sheâs obsessed with me. Itâs no secretâ¦â
Stefan took the telescope and sat in Reneeâs place. With the telescope, he could see H Group clearly as he looked across the street. Even if Renee had no intentions for him, she must have an agenda against H Group.
However, Renee was not in her office, and he did not see her go out of the office building either. Where was she?
