The Untouchable Ex-Wife



Chapter 2136

Mateo brought Leia and Renee to a cell and locked them there.

*Just you wait! This isn't over. I'll get justice for Luneth, but I need to ask Master how you two should be punished, *he threatened.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

However, he was slightly more polite before he left.

"You'll be staying here for a while, but don't worry. I won't starve you. Just tell the guards if you need anything."

Leia rolled her eyes. "Oh, so I need to thank you, don't I?"

'I'm sorry to have upset you." Mateo didn't say much. He nodded and left the cell.

That cell looked better than an ordinary cell-it came with a bed, table, chair, stool, and small bathroom. It resembled a small hotel room.

"What should we do, Ren? Should we figure out how to run away?" Leia sounded anxious. She looked around and tried to find a shovel to dig a hole in the ground.

"I don't know, either. Just wait. Treat this as a trip. Anyway, I'll sleep first,' Renee said indifferently, looking calm. She lay sideways on the bed.

Leia walked to the bed and looked confusedly at Renee, frowning. "Ren, you're so carefree. We're locked up here and under their mercy. Aren't you worried at all?"

"Don't worry, Just accept it as it is," Renee replied. "It must be very hard on Liam now. Just wait. They'll only let us go after reaching an agreement with him. If not, we can't get out of this fort even if we're released. It's just a bigger or smaller cell. It's the same."

Renee was well aware of the current situation. Mateo had captured her and Leia because he wanted to control Liam.

If they managed to escape the cell, it would be hard for them to leave the fort given the armed soldiers stationed every few feet. It would be best to do nothing and let nature take its course.

"Fine. We don't have any other option." A helpless sigh escaped Leia, and she knocked her head. 'This is all my fault! Why did I insist on coming here for Liam's wedding? None of this would have happened if we stayed away! I've burdened you. I'm so sorry, Ren. I caused trouble again."

"Silly! I told you it wasn't your fault. They set up this trap. You would have fallen into it no matter what. Plus... It's lucky we came. Only then did we learn about Liam's situation. It would be more troublesome if he married Amber without thinking it through. We saved him, didn't we?" Renee tried to comfort Leia, smacking the latter's shoulders.

"Yeah, you're right. Liam would be doomed if we didn't come. But... We're all doomed since we came." Leia felt desperate. She lay on the bed and leaned against Renee. "I hope Liam can soldier it through."

"Don't worry, I'm sure he has a plan. He's smart!"

Renee closed her eyes, at peace. She was sure Liam would get out of this fort with them sooner or later, given his intelligence.

"Mm, I think so too. He's smart. If not, he wouldn't survive this savage place for such a long time...." Leia said, gradually feeling relieved.

She touched her belly.

'Argh! I'm starving. I'm craving fried chicken. Where's that durian? Since they accused us of stealing it, I'm sure they can let us have it."
