The Untouchable Ex-Wife

Francine could never have imagined that her son, who was always cold and serious, would flirt with Renee, the harbinger of tragedy, in her presence. This was even more surprising to her than seeing aliens on Earth.

“Stef, what’s the matter with you? You wouldn’t even look at her twice in the past. Why are you being so intimate with her now?

Don’t tell me you’re actually trying to seduce her?”

Stefan shrugged, neither admitting nor denying it.

This made Francine even more aware of how serious the matter was.

If it was Renee who was making advances on her son, it would make sense to her, but now, it appeared that it was her son who was making advances on Renee. This made her, the mother, feel ashamed and lose her moral high ground.

“Son, did you get brain damage or did she put a spell on you? Do you even know what you’re doing? Why are you seducing this harbinger of tragedy?”

Francine had a short fuse. Angered by Stefan, she started hitting him.

While pounding at him, she yelled, “Grow some eyes! Please, for the love of god, grow some eyes! Why are you seducing the woman you’ve already divorced? A good horse will never turn round to graze on an old pasture! You’re an embarrassment to me and to our family!”

Renee saw Francine beating Stefan “ferociously”, so she quickly stepped back a meter or so to distance herself and keep herself safe. She also said, “Miss Francine, please be mindful of your

wording. Technically speaking, I’m not the woman your son divorced, I’m the woman who dumped your son. And, technically speaking, he didn’t “turn round to graze on an old pasture”, because I haven’t let him “graze” on anything at all.

As for that time when they got drunk, something did happen between them, but in Renee’s mind, that wasn’t her being “ grazed”, they were mutually “grazing” each other, so it didn’t count.

Francine felt even more humiliated. She started hitting Stefan even harder, yelling, “Did you hear that? This woman has never loved you. Stop making a fool of yourself! Hurry up and put on some clothes!”

Stefan’s handsome face showed no expression as he flatly said, ” There aren’t any clothes.”

“You…!”

Francine rubbed her temples. She felt that if she kept going, she would die from anger.

While all that was happening, Renee found a tracksuit someone left behind and quickly put it on.

After rummaging around in the wardrobe, Stefan also found some casual clothes he left behind a long time ago and put them on too.

Now, the scene finally did not look so weird anymore…

When Francine saw Renee’s tracksuit, it instantly reignited her hatred.

That was because the clothes Renee was wearing happened to be left behind by Briar Desrosiers.

“You vicious woman! Tell me honestly, did you kill Briar and my unborn grandchild?”

Francine clenched her fists and demanded to know in a harsh voice.

Although Renee was accused of something she did not do, she was very calm. She looked at Stefan and said, “Didn’t Briar Desrosiers commit suicide? No one knows better than your son what happened to her.”

The mention of Briar Desrosiers’ death instantly angered Renee.

Briar Desrosiers was obviously the one in the wrong, but not only did Stefan take her side unconditionally, he even went as far as to fake her death in order to save her… It was an insult to Renee’s IQ.

“Stef, what did she mean by that?”

Francine turned around and asked Stefan.

Stefan did not reply, which was as good as confirming Renee’s accusation.

“See, your son has given you the answer. You don’t have to worry about Briar Desrosiers. How could a person like her commit suicide? 11

Renee sneered and spoke sharply.

Although she could already guess that Stefan had secretly hid Briar Desrosiers away, when Stefan confirmed it, she still could not help feeling disappointed.
