The Untouchable Ex-Wife

Chapter 1972

Renee was pretty tired after the escape room. She didn't want to talk about romance-all she wanted to do was rest.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

When she reached Everheart Manor, she ran into Quinton. It was midnight, but he was not sleeping. He sat alone in the pavilion in the garden, looking up at the moon. Renee could tell he was feeling lonely. She didn't want to disturb him, but before she could leave, he turned and saw her.

"Ren!" Quinton's face lit up in delight. "I heard you went on a date with Justin again today. Did you have fun?"

"It wasn't bad." Renee walked to Quinton and sat down gently beside him. "What did you do today? Did you go out for some fun?"

"I'm old, so there's nothing fun out there for me. I just stayed home. It's pretty relaxing, Quinton said casually, but he sounded tired.

"Quinton, you're wrong..." Renee smiled and continued, "You said you're old, but you're just a few minutes older than me. Don't tell me I'm old too."

"You're different from me." Quinton looked at Renee lovingly. "You're the treasure of our family, and you'll always be young and cute. I hope you can live like a child, and just be happy." He had soldiered through many hardships, so he felt older than his actual age. Renee was so different-she was pure, kind, energetic, and passionate. He always wanted to protect her.

"I know you're good to me, but... I hope you can be happy too." A sigh escaped Renee, and she looked at Quinton sympathetically. "If we weren't targeted, you wouldn't have been kidnapped, and we could have grown up together. You wouldn't have had to face those misfortunes, and you'd be a rich heir like Stefan and Xavier. You would have lived a good life, away from all those nasty people... That person should have kidnapped me instead!" She sobbed as if she was guilty of snatching away his perfect life.

'Silly woman, what kind of logic is that? Don't blame yourself!" Quinton rubbed her hair and said tenderly, "I told you not to blame yourself. I just want you to know that you're my treasure, and I want to protect you. I'll be happy if you are. If you're sad, I'll be sad too."

"That's what I want to say to you too." Renee's eyes were watery as she looked at Quinton. "You want to protect me, but I want to do the same for you too. My life is getting better, but yours isn't. If you want to reassure me, open up your heart and seriously look for a wife. This moon will look better if someone is enjoying it with you."
