The Untouchable Ex-Wife



Both Alexander and Francine kept their heads down when they heard Timothy's words. They went on eating, not daring to breathe.

Everyone knew that Timothy's former granddaughter-in-law was his favorite. His two great-grandchildren were the source of his happiness.

However, various reasons caused Renee, Adie, and Abby to grow further and further away from the Hunt family. Now, they rarely gathered together.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Hence, Timothy would sigh every time dinner came. On top of that, he would be angry and rebuke anyone who tried to comfort him.

Alexander, worried Timothy would feel lonely from staying in that manor alone, stayed there with Francine in the long term. However, both of them were burdened instead.

Timothy would occasionally blow his top at Alexander or Francine. When Stefan was home on Sundays, the three of them would work together to admonish Alexander instead. The manor was rather chaotic.

"Why are you two keeping your heads low? Are you looking for something?" Timothy slammed the fork on the table, and started finding fault with Alexander and Francine. "My granddaughter-in-law and great-grandchildren are all gone! Can you even find them?"

"Dad, we're eating. Let's not talk about unhappy things, Alexander said carefully, raising his head. He was afraid his wife would face the brunt of Timothy's anger. "Be reasonable. Yes, Ren, Abby, and Adie are gone, but it has nothing to do with us. You should blame Stefan instead. He went crazy suddenly, and got together with that scheming Briar again. Why don't you stop? We'll tell him off when he comes home."

Alexander did an excellent job in shifting the blame. Timothy stopped berating Alexander and Francine, and started criticizing Stefan. 'Yes, you're right."

He slammed the table, and exploded into a furious tirade.

"That Stefan needs a beating! He keeps mistreating Ren! Is he out of his mind? Can't he control himself? Does he have to get entangled with that wicked woman again? If he comes home, I'll beat him up and make him kneel in the memorial chamber for a few days! I can't accept it otherwise!"

Timothy wasn't simply venting his anger out-he meant his every word. Int he past, he would always beat Stefan up. However, Stefan rarely came over recently. Timothy was denied the chance to lay his hands of Stefan, and it made him livid.

Francine doted on Stefan very much. When she heard Timothy's plan of beating Stefan up, she found it unacceptable. She abruptly looked up, and began arguing with Timothy.

"Dad, I can't accept that. Stefan is an adult! He has the freedom to choose to be with the one he wants. You can't selfishly force him to be with someone he dislikes. Yes, he's married Renee and built a family with her. She's also a good daughter-in-law and mother. But they're not meant to be, and we can't do anything about it. They were entangled for so many years, and ended up both hurt. Why should we force them to be together and make them unhappy?

"Plus, I went to a fortune-teller for them. They're incompatible. Accidents will happen if they're a couple. See, aren't they safe and sound now that they're apart?"

Francine had been holding herself back for a long time. At first, she didn't want to expose her thoughts. However, she lost her temper when she heard that Timothy wanted to beat her son up again.

Her actions scared Alexander out of his wits. He immediately grabbed her, and tried to persuade her softly, "Stop talking! You know Dad's condition. Don't anger him and make him sick.

"No, I must say it!" Francine retorted.
