Chapter 741
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
âCome with me, Abby!â
Adie glared at Stefan, then took his sisterâs hand and led her into the study.
âWhat is it, Adie? Itâs not polite to leave the handsome man out there all by himself! We should spend more time with him.â
Abby stared impatiently out into the living room, gazing at Stefan, sitting on the couch, wishing she could always cling to the man.
But Adie swiftly slammed the door shut and, with a stern expression, scolded his sister, âYou silly girl!
Still canât recognize who that man is?â
âWhat do you mean, Adie? Do you know that handsome man?â
âSo you really canât recognize him. Fine, Iâll show you a pictureâ¦â
Adie picked up his phone and browsed through it for ages, punctuated by periodical âumsâ and âahhsâ
before he finally tapped on Renee and Stefanâs wedding photo.
âAh, heâs our evil Daddy!â Abby covered her mouth with her hand. Her eyes widened with shock, looking as big and juicy as grapes. She had always known that their naughty daddy was very handsome, but she never expected him to be this handsome in real life! It was no wonder that she did not recognize him the moment she saw him!
âNow that you know who he is,â Adie asked, âdo you still like him? Do you still think heâs a good guy?â
âNo!â Abby shook her head vehemently and clenched her little fists. âNot even a little bit!â she angrily declared. âAny man who dared to hurt Mommy is a bad man, no matter how handsome he is! I donât like him at all!â
âGood,â Adie stroked his chin and nodded with satisfaction. âIâm glad you havenât lost your backbone and forgotten our motive of coming to Beach City⦠Let me ask you again, why did we come to Beach City?â
âTo protect Mommy!â Abby answered loudly, her voice full of spirits. âTo be by her side and to avenge her!â
âShh!â Adie turned towards the door and added hushedly, âNaughty Daddy used to bully Mommy and treated her terribly. We shouldâve taught him a harsh lesson long ago, but we never had the chance.
Now he walked right through our door and straight into our hands, so we must seize this opportunity and make him suffer!â
âDo you have any plans, Adie? Evil Daddy looks like a smart guy. He wonât be an easy target to deal with. Would it be a little too hard for us to teach him a lesson?â
âDonât worry about that. If we work together, heâs simply no match for us.â
Adie had long conspired countless nefarious plans to deal with Stefan Hunt in his brilliant little mind. He leaned in towards Abby and whispered into her ear, and the twins enthusiastically began to discuss their schemes.
Meanwhile, Stefan sat in the living room, almost bored to tears. He looked around him and found that, although this âhomeâ seemed a little shabby, it still felt quaintly comforting and warm. He thought that perhaps the happiness of the ordinary man: a complete family of fourâwith a son and a daughter, three square meals each day, and a spouse who was always by your sideâsounded pretty enticing after all.
Stefan picked up a magazine on the coffee table and browsed through it. Even the most ordinary and commonplace surroundings failed to suppress his haughty and reserved aura.
It was then that Margaret returned from grocery shopping, her hands full of shopping bags, and the second she saw the man on the couch, she let out a scream as if she had just seen the devil himself.
âAaahh! You⦠you⦠you⦠Stefan Hunt! What are you doing here? What are you planning to do?â
She then picked up the big kitchen knife that she just bought and held it up as if she was about to fight the man to the death.
