The Untouchable Ex-Wife

And so, Renee and Margaret came to the private maternity hospital where Renee often got her prenatal checkups.

As they were waiting for Renee’s turn, Margaret kept holding Renee’s arm and carefully checked her pulse.

“Your pulse is normal, Miss Renee. Your babies should be fine. You shouldn’t allow a dream to scare you sick. Let’s just knock on wood, and everything will be fine.”

Renee nodded but was still full of concern. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

’I know my precious little cubs are fine since I’ve been strong and fit all the while. But I just can’t stop myself from worrying. I can’t shake off the feeling that something might happen.”

“Shush! Don’t speak of such inauspicious things, Miss Renee! You might not believe anyone, but you must believe the traditional medical

knowledge that I learned from my family. You know that I can treat any illness under the sun by prescribing a few herbs! I’m telling you, there’s nothing to worry about.”

“You’re right. With a medical genius like you by my side, I’ve simply got nothing to worry about!”

Renee finally felt slightly more at ease as she walked into the doctor’s office. Her report came out in no time, and it was found that both of her babies were healthy and were developing well. They appeared to have been completely unaffected by her activities. It also seemed that her unborn children had become quite resilient.

“Ms. Everheart,’ said the doctor, “in one week, the fetuses will be three months old, which means that you’ll be entering the second trimester, the most comfortable stage of the pregnancy. Your morning sickness will gradually disappear, your appetite and your energy will improve, and your babies will be stronger and more resilient. You’ll also start to have a visible belly, so you should change into more comfortable clothes. Do remember to take your calcium supplements, and make sure you get a good sleep every night.”

After speaking, the doctor simply prescribed some calcium tablets and vitamin supplements and called for the next patient.

With the checkup report in her hand, Renee cheerfully waved at Margaret, who had been waiting for her outside the doctor’s office, and told her, “It’s just as you said! They’re perfectly fine! I’ve been worried sick for nothing!”

“I’m glad to hear it, Miss Renee! I’m glad to hear it!”

Margaret was smiling from ear to ear. She was glad to see that the Everheart family, after having fallen from grace, was starting to slowly return to its former glory, not to mention they were about to welcome the sprouting of two new branches! She was happy for the late Mr. and Mrs. Everheart, who had died with regrets, and even happier for the late General Everheart!

The two then left the hospital and waited for a cab beside the road.

Renee, however, ever perceptive, could sense that something didn’t seem right. She kept feeling the urge to turn around her.

“What’s wrong, Miss Renee?”

“I think we’re being followed!”

Renee maintained a calm and cheerful demeanor as she chatted with Margaret, but she lowered her voice as a warning of vigilance.

“What?” Margaret instantly got nervous. She stretched her neck and looked around her, asking, “We… We’re being followed?!’

“Don’t turn around!” Renee reminded Margaret. “Let’s just pretend that it’s all fine and just walk ahead.”

Margaret swallowed her saliva, fearing the worst. She wrapped her arms around Renee and told her, “Could it be your enemy trying to take revenge on you? I’ll protect you, Miss Renee, but you must find an escape route immediately!”

“Don’t panic,” Renee calmly told Margaret. “I don’t think it’s my enemy, because they wouldn’t follow us this far without doing anything.”

“Then who could it be?” Margaret wondered aloud.

As they were about to turn a corner, Renee suddenly stopped, and with her back towards that shadowy figure who had been hiding from her, she yelled, “Stop hiding! I know you’ve been following me, so just show yourself! ■

As expected, a tall well-built man clad in black clothes and with a peaked cap on his head slowly walked out from behind a standing sign.

Never would Renee have expected that her stalker turned out to be Stefan Hunt’s best friend, Cecilia Smith’s loyal defender, and the eldest son of the Stuart family-Xavier Stuart.
