The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 437
'Yeah, exactly!" Renee agreed quickly. "My friends are all weirdos - we even call each other Mommy in private!"
'What in the world... your friends are just as weird as you are!" Francine exclaimed. Although she did find it odd, she didn't press
her. After all, this wasn't the reason she was here.
She placed the beautiful bouquet of lilies on Renee's desk, then pulled a chair over to sit down next to the bed. Her natural
movements made it seem like she was a close loved one to the injured woman.
"Tell me. Where have you been hiding after making such a big mistake? Did you get married? Any kids?" Francine behaved like
an elegant rich lady, and every question sounded like an interrogation. She knew her idiot of a son wouldn't ask such questions,
especially with his temper and ego, which was why she had to do it in his stead.
Renee smiled coldly. "Miss Milford, why do I need to answer your questions? Do you think we're close?"
It had been four years, and yet her ex mother-in-law was still just as stubborn and self centered. She thought to herself, 'She
really is Hunt's mother, I suppose. Like mother, like son!'
Surprisingly, Francine didn't get mad this time, and guessed, "So from what you're saying, I can tell you're not married. That
means you have to take responsibility for Stefan!"
"Excuse me? Take responsibility for Stefan Hunt?" Renee frowned lightly.
She wondered, 'Why can't I figure out her intentions? What is she even trying to say?'
'Of course!" Francine huffed in a justified tone. "Four years ago, no matter if you intended to or not, you made Stefan lose his
child."
"Now that you've had the guts to come back, you should've prepared yourself to give Stefan another child as compensation. As
long as you get pregnant, we will ensure you a life of luxury. However... if you won't, we, the Hunt family, will not let you off so
easily!"
Francine felt quite smart. With the guilt tripping and threats, she would get both an amazing daughter-in-law and a grandchild
too. Not just that, her son would be happy again.
It was the perfect plan.

"Hahaha!" Renee didn't know whether she should get mad or laugh at the sheer ridiculousness of the suggestion. Logically
speaking, a life for a life was totally reasonable. However, Stefan and her were not machines, and she couldn't pop a kid out just
because she wanted to 'compensate' them.
Amused, she decided to play Francine's game and shrugged. "Alright, I don't mind. But does your son agree to this? Oh, and
does his little lover agree to this too?"
"Really? You'll do it?" Francine's eyes lit up, not expecting Renee to reply so swiftly. She'd even prepared a few million dollars to
sway her, but it seemed that she had no use for the money now.
'I have such a good eye! She's quite decisive!'
"Okay, now look into the camera, and say that you're willing to give birth to Stefan's child as compensation." Francine was
worried that Renee would go back on her word, so she immediately took her phone out to record a video of the woman.
"Miss Milford, are you really not going to ask for Miss Desrosiers' opinion? She's the woman your son loves most, you know?”
Renee glanced at Briar, who was standing in the back.
Briar, however, was pursing her lips, looking as if she was about to burst into tears.
Although she had no idea why Briar would help her hide Abby's identity, Renee knew for a fact that all of Briar's mental issues
were just a ploy to manipulate Stefan.
'Heropinion doesn't matter!" Francine brushed that off, speaking in a mysterious tone. "You don't have a clue now, do you? Who
told you that Stefan loves her the most?
