The Untouchable Ex-Wife



Quinton gazed at Renee, sensing the sadness behind her smile. It broke his heart. "I'm sorry." Feeling guilty, Quinton apologized to Renee. "It's my fault for letting you recall those things, but don't worry. I won't find fault with Stefan or force you to pick sides." Although he never truly forgot about his hatred toward Stefan and dreamed of hacking him into pieces, he could suppress his feelings when he recalled how Renee suffered because of it. For now, he could only dream of making Stefan's life miserable.

"Thank you... I mean it." Renee's eyes were watery too. She knew how hard it was for Quinton to let go of his resentment for Stefan, and understood how he was compromising for her. Yes, he was a bad person, but he was trying hard to change for her sake. She hoped that he could one day become a truly nice person.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"What's your plan now?" Renee asked Quinton curiously after she had calmed down.

"I don't really know..." Quinton spread his hands, looking helpless. "You know how it is. Yes, I hate Joanne, but I would hate seeing anything happen to her. I hope she can be happier and forget about the past, but I can't control myself sometimes. When I face her, I'll always say things I don't mean, especially when she looks at me with so much fear and loathing. It really upsets me, and I don't know what I should do. I'm a fool when it comes to relationships-I'll only make things worse and push her further away from me!"

Everyone had their shortcomings, and Quinton's was how he communicated with others. He didn't know how to foster or maintain relationships because he grew up in a crazy and cold family. All he saw was hatred, disgust, and oppression, so he showed others those same emotions too. "I've never felt love, so I don't know how to express love..." Quinton's eyes gleamed with misery. "So, I deserve to be lonely. You don't have to worry about me. I've come so far on my own, so I've learned to enjoy being alone."

"Oh, please. You're exaggerating. Renee sighed helplessly. It broke her heart when he behaved like a pitiful child, and she felt like pampering him unconditionally. At least when he was behaving aggressively, she could be mad at him and knock some sense into him.

"Did I say something wrong?"
