The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 1237

Renee's eyes grew wide as she retorted, "So, you want me to take your side? Does it mean that I can't stop you even if you want to kill people? That I have to allow you to take innocent lives?"

"Isn't that what you should do?" Quinton grabbed Renee's shoulders, his eyes wild. "We're siblings with the same blood running in us. You're me, and I'm you; we're in the same boat. All I want to do is revive the Everheart family and take revenge for our deceased parents. Shouldn't you support me?"

"I don't mind you wanting to revive the Everheart family, but there needs to be a limit. If we don't have principles, we'll be just like those villains who destroyed our parents. Such a bloodstained path of revenge would never make our parents happy if they knew."

"Well, what do you want me to do then?" Quinton punched the balcony hard, and his knuckles started to bleed. "Are you aware of my past? If I was bound by limits, I would be long dead by now. I was able to crawl out of that demonic abyss because I was crueler than others… That was how I gained my current position."

"Yes, I know you did all that to survive, but to use the same kind of methods with Joanne? She helped you, and was your shining ray of hope, but you turned around and stabbed her in the back. Do you think it's okay?" Renee demanded.

"Stabbed her?" Quinton laughed coldly. "She was the one who stabbed me, sister dearest. I'm sure it was Stefan who told you that... You say that you're on my side but you doubt everything I say and believe everything he says. Have you ever considered my feelings?"

"Was it really a lie? Didn't you kill Joanne's family and force her to do things against her will? Didn't you abort her child?" Renee cared about her relationship with Quinton very much, but she felt compassion for Joanne after hearing what she had been through. "Joanne is so kind. If you didn't force her, she would never have done something so extreme."

"Yes, I killed her family because my foster parents and her brother were cruel beasts. If I didn't get rid of them, they would have gotten rid of me. As for the fact that I aborted her child..." Quinton closed his eyes and gnashed his teeth. His lip curled as he sneered, "I would never allow such an abomination to come into this world and ruin my life."

"There is no maybe!" Quinton gripped the railing on the balcony, his gaze cold. "Joanne is dead, so your words are meaningless. It's too late even if I regret it."

Renee's eyes lit up when she heard this. Believing Quinton and Joanne could reconcile, she asked tentatively, "Quinton, are you serious? Do you regret it too?"

Quinton remained silent, neither admitting or denying it. He did not know if he regretted it or not, but he had to admit that he never forgot about Joanne during all those years even though he prohibited others from mentioning her in front of him.
