The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 560

"A gift?" Renee stopped and turned around, looking at the old man with interest.

How lucky could she be today, to receive a gift from such a legendary person?!

She glanced at the old man's stall. Any one of those items was either priceless or incredibly rare—she could easily make a fortune selling any of them!

But the old man had no intention to give her any of his wares. Instead, it was something that he carried with him.

"Take this silk handkerchief, young lady. One day, it will give you much-needed guidance."

The old man then stretched out his branch-like arm towards her, handing her a finely crafted silk handkerchief.

"This silk handkerchief…" Renee was astonished when she saw the pattern on the handkerchief.

There was a phoenix and some red spider lilies embroidered on the handkerchief, it looked similar to the pattern she saw on the quilt her grandmother had left her all those years ago. Perhaps it might even have been made by the same person. It's a shame that the quilt was destroyed in that fire…

Just as she was about to ask the old man where he got this silk handkerchief, a woman with her head covered in blood rushed towards her and clung onto her leg.

"Help me!" she shouted. "Please help me, Miss! Those people are going to stab me to death…"

The woman looked to be in her early thirties. She continued to cry, "I can't die right now, Miss! If I die, then my son would become an orphan! Please, Miss! You must help me!"

Renee initially had no intention to get involved, but when she heard that this woman was a fellow mother who was bringing up her child alone, she was suddenly moved by compassion. She helped the lady up to her feet and asked, "What happened to you? Explain it to me slowly."

Seeing this, the woman instantly took cover behind Renee, quivering in fear.

"Don't be afraid," Renee assured her, tilting her head towards the woman. "I told you that I'll help you. They won't dare to do anything with me here!"

In no time at all, those men noticed Renee. They rushed up towards her with bloodthirsty eyes and yelled, "If you don't want to die then don't butt into this! Get out of the way!"

Without a change in her expression or budging for an inch, Renee opposed them. "You think I'll move just because you say so? Who the hell do you think you are?!"

Her fierce reaction not only stunned the men in black suits. Even the sellers and onlookers around her were astounded.

A tall man in a black suit who stood in front of the others viciously roared back, "Is this your first time in Water Dock? Don't you know who you're talking to?!"
