The Untouchable Ex-Wife



When the others saw that, they walked into the hospital one by one. Stefan, however, stood at the door, observing his surroundings vigilantly.

"Stefan, why are you still standing there? You're the last to go in." Xavier waved at Stefan and said teasingly, "You scolded me just now, but how come you're so timid now? Don't be scared. Look at how brave Renee is-she was the first to go in. You just need to hide behind her and let her protect you."

Stefan glared at Xavier and said coldly, "You all go ahead and look for clues. I'll bring up the rear." Although it was a childish game, he would always take note of his surroundings. If all of them went into the hospital, they might be doomed if there was a trap inside the hospital or if there were other clues that were not in the lobby.

"What clues should we be looking for?" Jeffrey asked naively, "Should we be looking for a key or treasure? I don't see any treasure here."

"We're here to find treasure. Look around and see if you can find any gold or jewelry!" Renee patted Jeffrey's head and tried to comfort him the way she would with Adie and Abby. She did see Jeffrey as her older son in some aspects since she grew up with him. Knowing he was scared, she made the game into a treasure hunt for him.

"Yeah, I love finding treasure!" Jeffrey's eyes lit up, and he said eagerly, "Don't worry, Renee-I'm an expert in finding treasure. You know I've loved looking for treasure in the sea since I was a child. If it's easy for me in such a big ocean, this hospital with just a few floors is nothing."

"Wow, that's great. Go ahead!" Renee smiled and gave Jeffrey a thumbs-up, and off he went in search of treasure.

"Now I know this guy isn't a brat-he's an idiot!" Justin muttered in disbelief, his hostility towards Jeffrey decreasing. There was no way this naive and pure kid could be a rival in love. Stefan, however, was his biggest threat.

"But what clues should we be looking for?" Leia asked, slowly getting used to the surroundings. She stood in the middle of the lobby and looked around.

'Let's read the background of the story," Renee suggested.

"That makes sense! Listen up, guys. I'll start reading." Leia took out her handbook and flipped through it. Under the dim light of the chandelier, she cleared her throat and said, "Hello, welcome to my world. My name is Jayla. I was a patient in this hospital twenty years ago."Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
