Chapter 809
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Rosie looked up at the bright moon and said, âMr. Q is a good person. After I stole the treasure from the Carmine Pawnshop, not only did he spare my life, he even helped me quit my addiction. After that, he hired me as his assistant with a generous salary. I paid off my debt and sent my son back to kindergarten. Our future became bright again, like the moon.â
âYouâre Mr. Qâs assistant?â
Reneeâs eyes lit up. As if she had caught onto a life-saving straw, she grabbed Rosieâs hand and asked, âDo you know where he is? Can you tell me? I have something very important to ask him!â
âMr. Q has always kept his whereabouts a secret. Although Iâm his assistant, I have no right to know where he goes. Butâ¦â
Rosie was about to say something when Chase walked over and interrupted her words coldly.
âRosie, Mr. Q already told you that starting from this week, youâre no longer his assistant. Youâve been dismissed. What are you doing here?â
Chaseâs eyes were cold and his voice was threatening, âDo I have to ask security to chase you away?â
âIâm sorry, Mr. Chase.â
Rosieâs eyes immediately became teary. She said pitifully, âI just came to say goodbye to Mr. Q. Iâ¦â
âThat wonât be necessary.â
Chase said impatiently, âThe Carmine Pawnshop is not a charity organization. It doesnât matter if you came to thank Mr. Q or to say goodbye to him, youâll only disturb him. Stop disturbing him. Thatâs the best thing you can do for him.â
Renee stared at Chase sharply and said, âSo you do know where he is. He might even be watching us right now, asking you to convey his message in real time.â
âChase, tell me where he is and what secret heâs hiding. Why did he leave without saying goodbye?
Has he ever considered that his actions might make me suffer for a lifetime and doubt myself for a lifetime?â
Chaseâs face remained cold and expressionless. âMiss Everheart, Iâve already told you, Mr. Q has disappeared. We canât reach him. Maybe someone hurt him. Maybe he wants to retire to the mountains and forests. Maybe he approached you with ulterior motives, and now that heâs achieved his goal, his role is no longer needed, so he disappearedâ¦â
The many assumptions he stated made Renee feel even more disheartened.
Because no matter which one it was, she could not accept it!
She did not want Mr. Q to get killed because of her. She also hoped he had not been lying to her all along.
âMiss Everheart, instead of making a big fuss here, why donât you interrogate the person involved? No one knows the truth better than him, but it might be a truth that youâre not willing to accept.â
Chaseâs meaning was obvious.
He did not know the truth, Rosie did not know the truth, and no one in the entire Carmine Pawnshop knew the truth. The only one who did was the winner of the whole affair, Stefan Hunt!
Chase left after he said that.
Renee gradually calmed down, but the sadness seemed to have frozen on her face. It would not fade even after a long time.
Rosie looked at her with sympathy and said softly, âMiss Everheart, I donât know what happened between you and Mr. Q, but I can tell you one thing with certainty: Mr. Q is a good person and he wonât hurt you on purpose. Whatever he did, he must have done it so that you could be happy.â
âIs that so?â
Renee raised her head. Her eyes were wet. She smiled bitterly, âI think heâs a good person too. Thatâs why I want an answer even more.â
âAre you free now? Letâs go have a drink. I can give you a better idea of what kind of person Mr. Q is.â
