The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 1102

Renee then stood up and stubbed out her cigarette, her slender figure disappearing into the dark…

Stefan, on the other hand, waited for an entire day but never received the bowl of dumplings he longed for.

He was still able to endure the wait when he realized that the dumplings hadn't arrived in the afternoon. However, as supper time arrived, he just couldn't believe that none had been delivered to him.

The man was losing patience.

"What happened? Why are there no dumplings today?" Stefan stopped and questioned the patrolling nurse while Seraphina was resting.

"W… Well…" The nurse rubbed the back of her neck awkwardly. "They stopped serving it. Why don't you check out our other offerings, Mr. Hunt? We have steak, hamburgers, spaghetti…"

"I don't want any of that. I just want dumplings, seafood dumplings." Stefan completely shed his image as a CEO and started demanding for his food like a child.

The nurse was speechless. "Please don't tell me you haven't eaten for the whole day."

"Exactly. I've been waiting for the entire day! I'm starving!" Stefan confessed. After all, if he couldn't have his favorite dish, other foods could never be substitutes… And he was not a man who would settle for second.

"Then, hold on, I'll go ask the food court for you." The nurse agreed for now, worried that the stubborn man might put his health at risk.

"Okay, I'll be waiting. Remember, my life is in your hands," Stefan said with a serious face.

As he had finally headed back into Seraphina's ward, the nurse sighed in relief and rushed to Jovan's ward, which was on the same floor.

"Joan, can you come out for a bit? I have something I need to discuss." The nurse stood at the doorway and gestured towards her.

Renee had just finished massaging Jovan at the time, so she turned to him and said, "It's getting late. You should get some rest."

"Wait here, I'll get some for him. And tell him this is the last time. He's not getting any more even if he starves himself!" She huffed in anger.

After that, Renee ran through the dark streets and arrived at the restaurant nearby.

Normally, restaurants didn't operate during that hour, especially not so late at night. Hence, she wasn't quite sure if the Aeos restaurant was still open.

After ten minutes or so, she reached the restaurant and noticed the storekeeper cleaning up and was about to close the store.

"Miss! Please wait!" Renee panted. "I want a bowl of seafood dumplings."

"Joan, why are you so late? We're just about to close up," The storekeeper said regretfully as she greeted her regular customer.
