The Untouchable Ex-Wife



Renee's sudden wrath seemed to have arisen out of shame from being exposed. Angry, she poured herself another glass of white wine and gulped it down. Then, she turned to Dale.

"I told you my resolution, Mr. Porter. I have some errands to run, so I'll leave now. Enjoy your meal."

With that, she got up to leave.

"Oh, Ms. Everheart! You haven't eaten. Why are you leaving?" Dale immediately tried to stop her and persuade her kindly. "Relax. We need to discuss how to resolve this issue. I believe Mr. Hunt has considered it too. Perhaps he can come up with a win-win solution."

"Well, I'll leave you gentlemen to it. Honestly, I can't get along with him. I get furious when I see him!" Renee's face was icy, and she finally left.

"Uh.." Dale watched Renee leave before he turned to Stefan, who stayed where he was. After some consideration, he decided to remain with Stefan. "Mr. Hunt, what do you think....we should do now?"

"Ms. Everheart?" The secretary quickly pointed at the stairs. "I wanted to see her off, but she stopped me. She then went toward the emergency exit. I wanted to go in and inform you about that."Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Okay." Stefan nodded, and walked toward the stairs.

Generally, guests would use elevators. The emergency exit would be dark, and rarely did people use it.

Renee chose the inconvenient stairs instead of the convenient elevators. There could only be one possibility-she was drunk.

She had drank quite a lot of wine, when most might fail to handle even a glass. Besides, she and Dale kept drinking the entire time. It was understandable that she wasn't quite sober.

Renee found it hard to take, and went to a deserted area for a quick break.

Stefan descended the stairs. As he had expected, he saw Renee sitting on the stairs at the corner after descending two floors. She was curled up, and had buried her head between her legs...
