The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei
Chapter 102

Chapter 102

When the two left the Beach City Courthouse, they went their separate ways as if they would never see each other again. Who knew they would meet again in just a few hours?

Without the marriage license restraining them, the way they looked at each other seemed to have changed slightly.

Old Mr. Hunt's old eyes were filled with complicated emotions as his gaze traveled back and

forth between the two.

"You two. You just came back from a vacation together. Shouldn't you be all lovey-dovey? Why did you come to visit me separately? Did you have a fight?"

"We're..." Renee bit her lips, feeling torn. She was unsure if she should be honest or keep lying.

Things were different before they were officially divorced. Renee could forge a lie without feeling the slightest guilt. Besides, she was not trying to deceive him. However, her relationship with Stefan had changed so much that she found herself unable to pretend.

"We're so in love. How could we ever fight?" Stefan said calmly and wrapped his arm around Renee's shoulders. He behaved naturally and acted as though such intimacy had always been part of their daily routine.

Any outsider would immediately think that they were deeply in love!

Renee's cheeks flushed. She followed with a fake smile and said, "Yes. How could we have fought?"

'We'd just get divorced!' she thought to herself.

"That's great." Old Mr. Hunt nodded. Then, he turned to Stefan and asked him, "Tell me, Fan. Did you have a good vacation? Where did you go?"

Renee, afraid that Stefan would let the cat out of the bag, tried to answer first. However, Old Mr. Hunt stopped her. "Ren, I'm asking Fan. You stay silent."

Stefan looked over the local specialties on the desk and was drawn to the bag of coffee beans. Then, he said with a straight face, "We went to Zambawi."

After all, the best coffee beans in the world originated from Zambawi.

Renee was speechless hearing his answer. Now at a complete loss for words, she simply gave up on him.

She was never on the same wavelength as Stefan. A pristine island like Semponia was what she'd consider a dream vacation spot, while his....

Zambawi?!

Semponia and Zambawi were two completely unrelated places. Renee did not know how to cover up their lies.

"Good one! Zambawi!"

Old Mr. Hunt's kind look was instantly gone, and in place was a hard and stern countenance. What a good grandson. You even lied with a straight face. You two must really think I'm blind and old!"

Stefan tried to explain himself, "Grandpa, I..."

"On your knees!" Old Mr. Hunt yelled in a rage.

If Stefan's anger could be described as the roaring wind in a raging storm, his grandfather, Sullivan Hunt's rage would be like a nuclear bomb!

Sullivan Hunt was a great hero who once fought on the battlefield. Born with power, shake the room with his roar.

"I'm sorry, Grandpa. I shouldn't have lied to you."

he could

Renee knew her mistakes and felt guilty. She almost knelt obediently out of her filial love for the elderly.

Old Mr. Hunt saw her actions and quickly stopped her. "Child, what are you doing? You'll hurt yourself, kneeling on the hard floor I was telling this brat to kneel!"

Stefan pursed his lips tightly and looked as cold as ever. He did not hesitate and knelt down immediately.

"Grandpa, I'm guilty. I'm willing to accept any punishment," replied Stefan unflinchingly while lowering his eyes.

Old Mr. Hunt had absolute authority over the Hunt family. Stefan had always looked up to his grandfather as a role model and had been respectful and dutiful to him. Ever since a child, he had always obeyed Old Mr. Hunt's orders unconditionally.

However, his marriage with Renee was an exception. He had to disobey him for once.

"You kid. You're quick at admitting your fault. In that case, I'll give you one last chance. Be honest with me. Apart from the vacation, what else are you two hiding from me?"

Stefan looked down coldly and remained silent.

"Not saying anything, are you?"

Old Mr. Hunt took a deep breath and showed a meaningful expression. "Even if you stay silent,

I know what happened. I guess Ren must have suffered but dared not resist. That's why she gave me the pearl as a hint..."
