The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 1214

"Do you sleepwalk?"

"I did when I was a kid, but I haven't done it in years." Renee sleepwalked when she was young, and it scared her parents out of their wits. Her whole family did not even dare to take a deeper breath for fear of frightening her.

Renee recalled her past and explained, "My parents tried everything to cure my sleepwalking. They tried both traditional and modern medical treatments on me. Well, to be honest... My mom even found a traditional trick to cure me."

"Traditional trick?"

"Yes, it's called spiritual calling. She found an expert on it who came to my house to call my spirit in four different directions... The expert claimed that my energy was too weak, so I was attacked by something evil. That was why I started to sleepwalk."

"That's pure superstition." Stefan was full of disdain.

"Yes, it is, but I never sleepwalked again after that. I don’t know why I started to do it again recently. Could it be... Was I attacked by something evil again?"

"Of course not!" Stefan glared at her. Surprisingly, he seemed to be worried about her. He then said icily, "We have to believe in science. You're strong and lively, so nothing would dare to attack you."

"Yes, that's true." Renee nodded. She was not blind—she could see how worried he was about her. Warmth bloomed in her heart like a flower, and joy filled her. She had to hide that warmth so no one could discover it.

"But you've been calling me 'Cutie' all night. Who is that?" Stefan asked curiously.

"Er..." She smiled awkwardly. "Cutie was my dog. We were very close, but it disappeared after a while."

Stefan's face sank, and he felt like scolding her. "So, you regarded me as a dog all night?"

Silence ensued. Stefan felt the warmth from her body and smelled her soothing scent.

"I’m sorry." After he regained his wits, he carefully pushed her away.

"It's fine. I know that... your body isn't very good right now." Renee felt a bit awkward as she smoothed her clothes.

"That's right. It's all because of you and your brother." His gaze was glued on her as he said icily, "So, keep that in mind. You'll always owe me!"

Renee was stunned. She had a glib tongue, but she did not defend herself or argue with him this time. She kept her head low and echoed his words, "Yes, I'll always owe you."

Stefan lifted her chin and growled, "So, don't think you'll get rid of me that easily!"
