Chapter 707
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Although Stefan was cold and unfriendly, he always treated his elders with respect and patience, especially his grandfather who doted on him ever since he was a kid.
âBrothers my foot! Youâre a man and sheâs a woman. If you live together for a prolonged period of time, even if youâre innocent, people would talk. Thatâs why Old Man Murphy is so anxious. Heâs asking me for an explanation every day.â
Grandpa Timothy was anxious too. Years had gone by, but his grandson would not reunite with Renee nor start a new relationship. Did he want to remain single his whole life?
Then the Hunt family line would end with him!
âI donât have any other explanation except that weâre brothers. If we had feelings for each other, we would have gotten together a long time ago. I believe Seraphina has no special feelings for me either, so stop speculating.â
Stefan spoke calmly. He was a bit tired, so he wanted to take a shower and get a good nightâs sleep.
His gaze suddenly fell on the anime merchandise on the desk. His thick eyebrows furrowed slightly.
He keenly noticed that Luffyâs position had shifted. Someone had moved him.
It could not have been the servants.
His room was strictly off limits to the servants. He did not need the servants to clean his room for him.
He would clean it himself regularly.
It could not have been his grandfather either.
The old man hated Stefanâs room. He would always make a fuss whenever he came in here and would try to leave as soon as possible. He said the room was so childish that it gave him a headache.
It could not have been his parents either.
Those two had left him completely to his own devices ever since he âcame back from the deadâ and regained control of the H Group. They were currently on vacation in Europe. There was no way they would come into his room.
So, who would dare to⦠break into the Hunt Residence and more importantly, break into his room?
The security of the Hunt Residence had always been tight. Ordinary burglars would not be able to break in at all, nor would they have the courage.
Therefore, Stefan concluded that the intruder was not here to steal money.
Could it be an assassination?!
His expression suddenly became serious.
âGrandpa, itâs getting late. You should go to bed.â
Stefan planned to send the old man away first, then conduct a thorough investigation. If there really was someone hiding in his room, at least it would not frighten the old man.
âNo, I canât sleep until your problem is solved.â
Grandpa Timothy sat down on the sofa and continued to pressure Stefan. âYou have two optionsâ¦
One, remarry Ren. Two, marry Seraphina. Youâre almost thirty now, so you canât stay single anymore. I need a great grandson!â
âIn my opinion, Ren is still the best wife for you. Even though sheâs way out of your league, you can still pursue her back if you work hard. Seraphina is a good lass too. She visits me often. But sheâs no match for Ren. Iâve always regarded Ren as my own granddaughter. Iâve been hoping for years that you two would get back togetherâ¦â
Renee, who was hiding under the bed, was moved to tears upon hearing what the old man said.
She was completely unaware that Stefan had already discovered her from the reflection in the glass.
