Chapter 910
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
âTake a guess.â
Reneeâs red lips curled into a fox-like smile. It was enchanting, mysterious, and unreadable.
She reached out and gently caressed the manâs perfect face. The slight stubble and the faint coolness all felt so familiar to her. The lingering love of the past was still vivid in her memory, but right now, the two of them seemed to be worlds apart.
âI donât care what your purpose is. Leave immediately. This isnât where you belong.â
Stefan tried his best to put on a stern face so that Renee would leave.
He did not want her sudden appearance to mess up his meticulous plan.
But more importantly, he was not sure if he would falter at the final phase of the plan because of her!
If he faltered, everything would be over!
âWhy are you in such a hurry to drive me away? Because of guilt?â
Renee asked confidently.
ââ¦â¦â
Stefan ignored her. He let go of her hand and tried to maintain a safe distance from her.
He knew his own nature very well. Although he looked as cold as an iceberg, he was actually a hopeless romantic. The closer they were to each other, the less rational he became, which was very troublesome!
Unfortunately, Renee was naturally rebellious. When she realized that he wanted to keep a safe distance from her, she took the initiative and put her hands around his shoulders. Her thin lips brushed across his face, seemingly by accident. She said slowly, âWhat if I tell you I came here tonight to take you back. Would you believe me?â
âStop causing trouble.â
Stefan obviously never expected Renee to be so persistent in wanting him back. He was pleasantly surprised and struggled to keep a straight face. He said arrogantly, âI thought you said youâve prepared yourself to break up with me one day? You said Iâm merely the icing on the cake, and even without me, youâll still live a colorful life. Why are you so desperate now?â
âYes, but that only applies to the day weâre meant to part. We obviously havenât reached that point yetâ¦â
Renee buried her head deep in his shoulder like a kitten and whispered in his ear, âI donât believe for a second that you donât love me anymore. You must be doing this for a reason. Thereâs no one else here, just you and I. Iâll give you another chance. Tell me the truth. Whatever it is, we can face it together!â
ââ¦â¦â
Stefan stood tall and motionless like a mountain.
He had to admit, for a moment there, he was very close to faltering, just as he had expected.
But when he thought about the cost of doing so, he managed to pull himself back.
âLet me tell you something. Donât underestimate your wife. I, your wife, is amazing. Whatever support the Murphy family can give you, I can give you too. You donât have to make such a big sacrifice. Weâre still married, so donât you go and announce another engagement now!â
Renee felt a bit anxious when Stefan did not make any reply. Her attitude also became a bit more humble.
âWhat kind of support can you give me?â
Stefan remained unmoved. He slowly pulled her hand away and said, âYou canât even take care of yourself, so stop dragging me down. If you still care about me, then please give me and Seraphina your blessing.â
Renee once again felt a chill from head to toe.
Like a moth, she flew towards a light source willingly, even though she knew it would kill her.
In the end, she received a huge slap to the face!
âFine, Stefan Hunt. Remember what you said today. Iâve already given you enough chances. No matter what reason you turn out to have, Iâll never forgive you!â
Reneeâs eyes were red as she lost control and yelled at him.
*Ahem!*
