The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 828

Just as Renee was wondering if she should just allow Francine to take the kids with her, the old woman's voice turned unusually serious. "Ren, I know you still hold resentment towards the family. I know you hate my son, and you hate me too. I understand that we were horrible towards you, but Grandpa Timothy has always treated you with nothing but sincerity, hasn't he? He always treated you like you were his own granddaughter, right?"

"I will always remember the kindness he showed me," Renee admitted.

"So please, can you go along with it just this once? For his sake? We just want him to be happy."

Renee remained silent.

Seeing that the woman wasn't giving in, Francine sighed. "You might not know this, but the old man's health is deteriorating rapidly. The doctor said he wasn't even sure if he'd make it through winter this year."

"What?" Renee felt her heart sink. "But didn't Grandpa Timothy go through a heart transplant surgery? It went really well too! So why…"

"Child, have you already forgotten that the surgery was four years ago? He's become older during the time you left Beach City. Besides, a heart transplant can only do so much - it doesn't take away the health risks that come with old age. He also has other underlying health issues as well, which is why his condition isn't as good as you think."

"Grandpa Timothy never told me about any of this! Every time I went to see him, he was always so energetic. I really thought he was getting better…" Renee protested, her eyes reddening. Timothy was like her own grandfather, after all. Thinking about how the kind old man was going to go, just like how Maurice did, she felt extremely heartbroken.

"Ren, I always knew you were a generous person. I don't get how me and Stef never noticed how great you are, and fell for that sly woman's tricks instead…"

"There's no need to talk about the past. I'm not that generous either. When the children return after Grandpa Timothy's passing, I will officially wage war against the Hunts," Renee replied coldly and hung up right after.

She then returned to Stefan's room, suppressing her burning rage as she questioned him. "Why didn't you tell me about Grandpa Timothy's condition?!"

The man was calm, but his handsome face was consumed by melancholy. "It's a family matter, so there was no need to inform you."
