The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 534
However, the woman still chose to reject his offer. "Maybe some other day.
I'm getting tired, so I'll go get some rest."
Despite believing the man's occupation, she still chose to lock these secrets away. There were just some things she'd rather hide
than face...
Stefan didn't push her any further, but was still quite devastated. He wasn't sure if Renee was depressed over his 'death', but he
knew for a fact that she wasn't as happy as she seemed on the outside.
It was as if she was an onion, wrapping herself in layers upon layers to turn herself into someone everyone would like.
"The past few years weren't kind to you, were they?" Stefan asked in a deep and solemn voice.
Renee smiled bitterly, being completely honest with him. "Yeah."
The only people in the room were herself, and this escort, who was merely an acquaintance. Without her loved ones and rivals
around, she didn't want to play pretend any longer. Pretending to be depressed might be easy, but trying to fake happiness was
just... too difficult and taxing.
Stefan fought his urge to hug her, and said in a soft voice, "It's alright. Have a good rest, tomorrow will be a better day."
Apart from being a therapist, he was also quite an excellent hypnotist. With the fragrant aroma and his gentle words surrounding
her, Renee was able to fall into deep sleep on the soft lounge chair...
The next day, as birds chirped and sunlight shone through the windows, the woman woke up from her slumber. She stretched
with a satisfied smile on her face, noticing how this was the first time she felt so relaxed in years.
According to research, one session of hypnosis could help improve sleep quality, so much so that it would feel as if one had slept
for ten whole days. She had always thought of that as some kind of nonsense, but it seemed that it were true after all. Hence,
she was naturally pleased with the escort’s services.
On the coffee table next to her was, once again, a bouquet of sunflowers and a note attached to it.

[Good morning, my muse. Any low points you experience now will soon become the past, so I hope you can rise to the top once
again, and face the bright sun as if you were a beautiful sunflower. - Your Support]
Renee's lips slowly curved up into a lovely grin, her heart filled with warmth. This time, she chose to take the bouquet home.
When she opened the door to her apartment, she found Leia standing at the doorway with her arms crossed. It seemed that she
had been waiting for her, and that she had a lot of questions to ask.
"Ren, I told you to save your knight in distress, but did it really have to take a whole night? Was it really that bad?"
"Umm..." Renee felt quite awkward, not knowing what to say.
She even wondered. 'Why does it feel like I've been caught having an affair or something?'
Leia was instantly intrigued, and wanted to gossip. She held Renee by her shoulders and urged, "Hey, be honest with me... Did
you ask your little escort to repay you with his body, hmm?"
"Tsk tsk, the little escort certainly knows you, huh? He even got you your favorite flowers. And look at your smile - you must've
had a good night's sleep!"
Renee nodded. "Mhm, I did."
Leia nearly choked on her saliva, then let out a loud screech. "Ah! Oh my god, you did sleep with him! You finally let go! I'm so
happy I'm going to cr
