The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 2190

Liam found Leia unlucky and disappointing. He simply stopped talking.

A brief silence overcame them. It seemed like they had accepted their fate to get killed as they quietly waited for their death.

Macsen had returned to the shop to treat his wound.

After struggling for a long while, Mateo failed to struggle free. Macsen's subordinate whipped him several times.

"Motherfucker! Just wait. I'll make you pay!" Mateo furiously cursed Macsen's subordinate.

Macsen's subordinate sneered. "Hmph. You want to make me pay? I think my boss will skin you alive. It's been a long time since I've seen a lamp made of human skin. We're waiting for a good show!"

Leia had closed her eyes, but when she heard that, she shuddered and reopened them abruptly. Her voice was shaky as she asked, "Liam, what's that?"

"Uh…" Liam found it too cruel and couldn't bring himself to explain it to Leia. He hated his incapabilities. "It's my fault. I got you guys into this mess. Damn it all!"

"No, we can't blame you. I should be blamed instead. If I hadn't barged into the orchard and offended that crazy guy's wife and son, we wouldn't get into this mess," Leia said.

Leia, teary, wasn't afraid of death. On the other hand, she felt guilty for burdening Liam and Renee and regretted not meeting Xavier again.

"Oh, stop!" Mateo sneered. "You ruined my marriage with Gem and persuaded her not to marry any guy, but do you think it's good for her? You just did it out of your selfishness! You didn't want to lose a stupid and naive supporter all of a sudden."

"Nonsense! I didn't think of it that way. I sincerely didn't want her to marry a guy with a complicated mind and who values his interests over everything else," Liam refuted with agitation. However, his agitation proved that he wasn't telling the truth.

He would never admit that he had stopped Mateo and Amber's marriage selfishly…

"Only you know the answer. You dislike Gem but hate to lose a woman who's in love with you. And you know she's simple and honest. She'll stop loving you if she decides to marry me. She'll even stop getting in touch with you. You just don't want to lose such a wonderful woman who cares only about you. Am I right?" Mateo shot back.

Speechless, Liam neither admitted it nor denied it. The change in his attitude came from the change in the way Amber treated him.
