The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 514

Renee felt warmth bloom in her chest when she saw her son waiting for her. She bent over to hug Adie, but he took a step back and put his hands on his hips sternly.

"Mommy, you didn't come home last night. You misbehaved. Tell me the truth! Where did you go?"

"Umm, about that…" Renee felt a little awkward and didn't know what to say. She couldn't tell Adie that she got drunk at a bar and spent money on a man, could she? Adie would definitely lose all respect for her!

"I finished work late, so I decided to spend the night in the office. Sorry for making you worry, Adie." Renee picked up Adie and muttered an excuse, feeling a little guilty. After all, Adie wasn't exactly gullible.

As expected, Adie took a deep breath before taking a few sniffs. His eyes narrowed suspiciously. "Mommy, you're lying. You reek of alcohol! You went drinking last night, didn't you?"

When Leia heard this, she immediately came clean about what happened. "That's right! I asked your mother out for a drink last night because she's been a bit down lately. Work has been exhausting, and she needed to relax a little."

"That's ridiculous!" Adie scowled angrily. "It's dangerous out there, and Mommy is so pretty. Not only were you drinking, you even stayed out the whole night. What if you bumped into bad guys?"

Adie knew he was only a child, and adults wouldn't listen to him, so he decided to get help. "Looks like I'll have to call Daddy Liam and ask him to keep an eye on his wife!"

Liam had done so much for her over the years. Now that their relationship had officially ended, she genuinely hoped that he could meet someone who deserved his love and protection.

Leia was worried Adie might feel disappointed, and she quickly tried to comfort him. "That won't happen. They might not be together anymore, but they still have feelings for each other. Don't worry, Adie. My brother will always put you and Renee first. He'll do his best to protect you both!"

"It's different now because they've already broken up. I'm not as gullible as other kids, so don't try to trick me." Adie frowned contemplatively. "If that's the case, I'll have to do something for the sake of Mommy's happiness."

Renee and Leia exchanged concerned glances. "What are you talking about?"
