Chapter 685
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Unfortunately, their plan was too optimistic. Rubio Pascal hid the evidence well. On the surface, there seemed to be nothing wrong with the Pascal Manor at all. Even after an extended search, Shelley found nothing.
Three hours had already gone by. It was time for her to meet up with Renee.
She arrived at the rendezvous point they had agreed upon, but even after waiting for a long time, Renee was still nowhere to be seen.
âOh, no! Did something happen to her?â
Shelley called Renee.
The call was not answered.
âDo I really have to call the police?â
Shelley hesitated. In the end, she decided not to call the police, but instead sought help from Stefan.
âMr. Hunt, are you busy? Can you come to the Pascal Manor immediately? Miss Everheart is in danger!â
She believed that Stefanâs presence definitely carried more weight than the policeâs. If Rubio Pascal really was doing something bad to Renee, upon hearing Stefanâs name, he would definitely become so scared that would not dare to do anything.
Stefan remained quiet for two seconds. After that, his reply was cold but firm. âWait for me. Iâll be right there.â
Not long after, Stefan arrived at the Pascal Manor with dozens of people behind him.
Alfred, the manorâs butler and Rubio Pascalâs subordinate, walked out arrogantly and said, âGreetings, Mr. Hunt. To what do we owe the honor of your presence?â
Stefan cut straight to the chase and demanded icily, âHand her over!â
Alfred pretended to be confused. With a smile that did not reach his eyes, he asked, âWho could you possibly be talking about, Mr. Hunt? I donât understand.â
âRenee Everheart, my ex-wife. Youâd better tell Rubio Pascal that if he dares to touch even a strand of her hair, Iâll take down the entire Pascal family.â
Stefan said that without any expression so it sounded emotionless, but in truth, his words gave off a chilling sense of oppression.
Unfortunately, Alfred had dealt with a lot of big shots before. He had done a lot of shady things with Rubio Pascal so he was not that easily intimidated.
âMr. Hunt, to be honest with you, a woman called Ms. Everheart did come to look for Mr. Pascal this morning. She said she wanted to make friends with him. Mr. Pascal loves making friends, so they hit it off right away and have moved on to Mr. Pascalâs bedroom to get to know each other⦠Iâm afraid you came at a bad time. Thereâs no way we can interrupt them at such a time.â
âBullshit!â
Shelley could not stand Alfredâs shameless lies anymore. She rushed forward angrily to confront him.
âMs. Renee wouldnât sleep with someone so easily! You must have threatened her! Hand her over if you know whatâs good for you!â
Alfred scoffed and said, âThatâs ridiculous. The entire Beach City knows Mr. Pascal has a special hobby. She came to us herself. Of course Mr.
Pascal is going to accept her willingly. Thereâs no threat involved.â
âYouâ¦!â
Shelley could find no words to refute.
She now realized that their plan was way too naive. They failed to consider the consequences.
If news of this were to spread, not only would no one take their side, people might even say that they âdeservedâ it.
âMr. Hunt, what should we do? Iâm sure Ms. Everheart is in their hands.
Rubio Pascal is a pervert! Sheâ¦â
Stefan ignored Shelley and instead turned to the well-armed subordinates behind him. âWhat are you waiting for? Rush inside and bring her out!â
Dealing with the Pascal family required tough measures. Words were meaningless.
âYes, Mr. Hunt!â
The armed group got ready to charge the Pascal Manor.
At that moment, Renee and Rubio Pascal walked out side by side, talking and laughing with each other.
