The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 386

“I've seen it.”

Stefan was working at his desk. He replied calmly without lifting his eyes.

Four years had left no trace on his perfectly handsome face, except it was maybe even colder now.

“You... you've seen it?”

Elijah found it hard to believe. He boldly said, "No way. If you've seen it, there's no way this is how you react.”

The trending topic was about Renee Everheart, the woman who had disappeared for four years and the woman Mr. Hunt could not stop thinking about for four years. This was his reaction?!

Stefan finally raised his head. He slowly put the lid back on his pen and twirled it with his long fingers. "How should I have reacted?”

“If you had seen the trending topic, you would have gone to meet up with Miss Everheart already. At the very least, you should be so excited that you would be freaking out... There's no way you would remain this calm!”

Elijah was emotional and puzzled.

“What does she have to do with me? Why must I meet up with her just because she's returned to Beach City?”

Stefan's questions struck Elijah dumb.

“Well...”

Stefan snorted. "Do I look like I haven't gotten over her?”

“Uhh... you do!”

At the risk of being thrown out, Elijah murmured, "Although you try to act like you're fine, and you're doing a good job of that, you secretly stare at her picture every night. You also get crazy whenever you're drunk and would bawl your eyes out while grabbing onto me. Don't you remember that just last month, you..."

“Shut up!”

Stefan's expression darkened. He coldly interrupted Elijah. "She's not that important to me. She's just a passerby in my life. It doesn't concern me where she is, and I have no intention of meeting with her. Don't mention her in front of me ever again!”

“But...”

Stefan hung up with a snap before Xavier could finish talking.

Immediately afterwards, Christopher called.

“Stef, Miss Everheard is back. Are you okay?”

Stefan said coldly, "I'm fine.”

“Are you sure? Do you want to go grab a drink?”

“I'm fine.”

“I don't think you are. After all, the last few years, you've...”

“I need to take care of something. Talk to you later.”

Stefan quickly ended the conversation.
