The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei
Chapter 2041

Had Renee been the one who learned the truth that day, Stefan was sure that the situation would be even more painful.

"I don't know what you're trying to hint at. If it were in the past, I would have gotten to the bottom of it. But now, I'm exhausted. I don't want to get tangled up with you again. You know what? I'm exhausted!" Renee said. She looked tom and agitated, and was trembling slightly. She was trying hard to not break down on the spot.

"It's like you're fishing. When you got me by the hook, you let me go. But when I swim away, you put out some fish feed. Do you think that's fun? Does making me a fool out of me satisfy you that much?"

Renee couldn't take it anymore. Her eyes turned red as she vented her true feelings in front of Stefan, as if she had been suppressing them for quite a while.

She had appeared casual and straightforward the entire time. She parted with him on good terms, and was even willing to begin a new relationship. She also wished he could choose a new life. Even so, she was no saint. She couldn't be so indifferent about her romance.

It was just an act. She was always disappointed in herself, as Stefan could easily affect her. Even a few casual words from him could either delight her or sadden her for a long time.

She hated that kind of feeling, so much so that she couldn't stop herself from hating him.

Renee turned and glared at him, and roared, "What the hell do you want? Just say it! You're so fickle, it's driving me up the wall!"

"I'm sorry."

Stefan never imagined he had caused her so much pain. He was saddened for her. He descended the stairs quickly, and pulled her into his embrace.

"All you need to know is that my choices are for only one goal-I want to see you and the kids happy forever!" "Humph! Happy forever?" Renee stood there in a daze, allowing Stefan to hug her. She sneered, though she wanted to cry. "Do I look happy to you?"

"You're just not used to it now. Your bad mood is just temporary. When you get used to not having me, you'll feel happy...

Stefan let go of Renee, suppressing his passion for her, and added sincerely, "You're such a wonderful woman, and you're full of love. You'll be happy no matter who you're with. You're born with the ability to create happiness."

It was the same as what she had done in the past. Although she had divorced him and was forced to raise Adie and Abby alone, she led a happy and beautiful life. It was wonderful and healing.

"Thanks for the flattery."

Renee remained indifferent, and looked at him coldly.

"You're right. I grew up with love. I can love people and create my happiness. And you... Forgive my bluntness, but you're selfish and cold. You don't have love, and you don't know how to love people. You won't be happy after leaving me, and you'll never be happy no matter who you're with."

Stefan shuddered, his face icy. Soon, however, he laughed as he smiled dotingly. "Yeah, that's who you are. You have a sharp tongue. But I agree with you. I might never be happy after leaving you."

It was rare to see him this amiable, which softened Renee's heart. She wondered if she was being too harsh.

She pursed her lips. "Stop acting so miserable. Your unhappiness is all your own doing. You don't deserve any pity."

"I don't blame you." Stefan caressed her face gently and passionately. "I feel that I'll be happy too. When you're

happy, I'll also feel very happy."
