The Untouchable Ex-Wife

Chapter 1954

The dark figure was about to pounce on Renee when Stefan dashed out from a corner and grabbed Renee's wrist. "Let's go!"

"What are you doing here?" Renee looked up in surprise, but let Stefan pull her to her feet. They quickly ran towards the basement, and the light grew dimmer. Luckily, they were fast, and the figure couldn't go past the lobby. When they ran downstairs, the dark figure stopped chasing them.

"I'm exhausted! Let me rest for a bit." Renee gasped, shaking off Stefan's hand as she bent over with her hands on her knees. She kept taking in deep breaths.

'Take this." Once Renee had calmed down, Stefan quietly handed a drink to her.

Renee took the drink and immediately gulped it down, then looked at the cup in her hand. "Wait... Where did you get this drink? It isn't poisoned, is it?" She looked up and asked Stefan suspiciously.

"I bought it from the vending machine just now, how could it be poisoned?" Stefan scoffed in disbelief. While the others were stuck in the net, he had gone to get drinks from a vending machine at the entrance. He figured that they would be tired while playing the game, and sure enough, he came back to see one of the non-player characters chasing Renee.

"How selfish can you be? You didn't do anything when we were trapped under the net!" Renee snapped at him.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"I told you-I went to get drinks." Stefan sighed and squatted down to rub Renee's ankle. "You fell earlier. Does your ankle hurt?"

Renee's body tensed, and she didn't dare move. She swallowed and said, "What are you trying to do? My ankle is fine, so stop messing with me!"

"Don't get me wrong, I was just worried that you sprained your ankle." While talking, Stefan carefully felt around her ankle. Once he confirmed that there was no swelling and the ankle wasn't dislocated, he relaxed.

"This is something only my boyfriend can do. You doing this is inappropriate!" Renee pulled her leg back and put some distance between them. It was a firm reminder for Stefan and also for herself. She had finally made up her mind to get rid of that dysfunctional relationship, and her current romance was going smoothly. She knew she had to keep her distance from Stefan or risk falling into that abyss again.
