The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 430
"Of course!" Leia agreed without any hesitation. She was just like her brother, and trusted Renee completely. "Bestie, help me
keep an eye on that guy, I trust your judgment."
Before Leia left, she smirked at Renee, then patted William on the shoulder. "Do your best, but if my bestie won't give us her
blessing, I will never marry you!"
"Don't worry, I'm confident that Miss Everheart can see how genuine my feelings are for you." William smiled, looking at Renee
with certainty." Right, Miss Everheart?"
"Maybe." Renee's lips curved upwards as she said mysteriously.
As the siblings left the ward together, the smile on Renee's face disappeared, and her gaze turned cold. "Close the door, please."
William was rather cooperative, approaching Renee with a warm smile. "I'm sure you've already looked into my past, Miss
Everheart."
Renee seemed quite surprised, huffing coldly. "You're smarter than I thought."
"You're too kind, Miss Everheart. Leia talks about you a lot, so I know you're a devoted, careful, and meticulous person. Now that
your best friend is marrying all of a sudden, it's reasonable for you to look into me."
"Good, not only are you intelligent, but you're quite understanding too. It's true that I can't nitpick much." Renee had never
expected William to be so humble. He wasn't mad that she looked into his background, which made her feel slightly ashamed of
her own actions.
"Come clean yourself then, what's your purpose of getting close to Leia?" Renee asked straightforwardly, not intending to waste
her time and energy. William smiled softly. "That's an odd question, isn't it, Miss Everheart? I love Leia, so I approached her
because I want to be with her. I'd like to become her husband and stay together for eternity."
"Save it!" Renee's expression was filled with disdain. "You may be able to fool a sweet girl like Leia, but you can't fool me. I know
how twisted and obsessive your past relationship was. Besides, you're a smart man, so you couldn't possibly have not known
that your ex is considered a person of interest to us."

"You mean Briar Desrosiers?" William's gaze shifted slightly, as his smile grew colder. "You have great connections, Miss
Everheart. I didn't expect you to find out about my terrible past..."
"That's right, Briar was indeed my first love. I was so in love with her that I went mad, and did a lot of irrational things just to win
her heart. But that's all in the past now, and I've tried my best to wipe the slate clean."
"I don't know how you found out about that, but it doesn't matter. I just hope you won't bring this up anymore, when I've already
regained my rationality and want to start a new life. Please allow me to do so, at the very least!"
Renee chuckled, her expression still frosty. "Don't act like a victim, I refuse to believe that you can fall for someone new after
loving her so obsessively! You must have a hidden motive!"
She had been through enough to see through these scumbag men, and knew that she shouldn't trust them easily. Moreover,
William and Leia were advancing way too quickly. With his history with Briar, she couldn't help but feel wary of him.novelxo.com

William didn't get mad at all, retorting, "Well, Miss Everheart, didn't you obsess over a man who didn't love you back too? You
ended up quite hurt yourself. So, does that mean you'd stop loving after that?"
Renee looked taken aback. "I'm different from you. You loved Briar Desrosiers, so you should know what type of person she is.
You-"
"And how is Stefan Hunt any better than Desrosiers? We share the same fate, so you're just a pot calling the kettle black. If you
can fall in love with someone new, why can't I?"
William tilted his head as he stared at Renee. "Or could it be that... you've never moved on from Stefan Hunt, and you can't
possibly fall for someone else?"
'That's not it!" Renee denied as she gritted her teeth.
"So there you have it... You had the same experience as I did, and you still fell in love with someone else. So why can't I? You're
just being critical because I fell for your best friend!"
"M-Maybe!" Renee replied, somewhat convinced
