Chapter 368
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Stefan knew that when the movie âHunt my Everheartâ trended on Twitter, it would get the attention of people, and Renee would naturally be curious about it.
Yet he didnât think that she would be so quick.
The film had yet to be officially released, but she appeared to be impatient. It looked like she didnât leave as freely and easily as she presented.
At the same time, Xavier walked proudly inside the presidentâs office and mysteriously stuffed a note inside Stefanâs hand.
âStefan, donât lose the paper. Iâve helped you as much as I can. If you canât get her back, then itâs your problem. Donât blame me for not helping you!â
Stefan was in the middle of his work when he was handed the note. He frowned and looked at the note in his hand. âWhat is this?ââ
âYour wifeâs location!â
Xavier became excited as he told, âI told you earlier that a mysterious person hacked into the distributorâs system and copied the movie file. I hired a hacker and discovered the mysterious personâs location. Theyâre located on a small island. If Iâm not wrong, thatâs your wife, and sheâs on that island now!â
âNo wonder we couldnât find her at all. Sheâs really good at hiding!â
A light flashed before Stefanâs eyes before it returned to its usually cold and distant look. He said nonchalantly, âWhere she at has nothing to do with me. Take it away, I donât need it.â
âWhat do you mean, Stefan? Didnât you want me to observe Reneeâs every move? You partook in the film because you wanted to show it to her, as well as beg for forgiveness and find out where she is.
How come it no longer has anything to do with you?â
âI just want to prove that she isnât as free and easy as she portrays herself to be. Now that Iâve proven it, I donât care where she is.â
As Stefan spoke, he continued to organize the file in his hand, seeming as if he didnât care one bit about Reneeâs whereabouts nor the intention to seek her out.
This shocked Xavier.
He was sure that Stefan would find her once he had Reneeâs location, and he could brag about his contribution to locating her. However, Stefan wasnât acting as he had anticipated!
âYou canât play me like this, Stefan. Youâve kept bugging me to promote the movie so you could locate Renee. But why are you suppressing your desire to see her and acting as if you donât care? Are you worried about losing pride if she refuses to see you?â
Xavier stared at Stefan, who seemed emotionless and gave him a piece of advice. âPut your pride away. Youâve given each other space for three months. This canât go on. If this continues, your relationship will actually come to an end. Since both of you still love each other, go and get her back.
Even if you fail, you wonât regret not trying.â
âSince youâre so enthusiastic, why donât you go on your own?â
Stefan lifted his gaze and remarked coldly, âThe whole world knows now that thereâs nothing between her and me. So you donât have to care about how I feel. If you like her, go for her.â
âYou!â
Xavier was furious when he heard Stefanâs words.
Xavier did have feelings for Renee before this, but he said it as a joke. He understood he couldnât act on his feelings for his friendâs wife. Besides, his heart had been taken over by another woman.
âIs there anything else? Iâm quite busy.â
Stefanâs cold words sounded like he was chasing Xavier away. Reneeâs location appeared to be unimportant and more of a hassle.
âNothing. Iâm just a busybody!â
Xavier was enraged, and he snatched the note and tore it apart before throwing it into the dustbin.
âSince you donât want to find her, itâs fine. After all, I wonât be the one to regret.â
Then, he pushed open the door and left.
At this moment, it was already late at night.
