The Untouchable Ex-Wife

After Seraphina regained her freedom, she ran to Stefan, who was at the door of the warehouse.
“Stefan, how are you? Are you hurt? Where’s Miss Francine... Did you come here alone?”
She ignored her physical injury and held his arms firmly. She then began to look for Francine.
“I came alone.”
Stefan sounded cold, devoid of any extra emotion.
“What? Did you come alone? You... How did you do that? Are you not hurt?”
Seraphina could not imagine how a blind man like Stefan would walk a few miles from a luxurious villa to such a dangerous and
remote warehouse.
“That’s not important. Tell me where Renee is.”
His deep-set and bright eyes were hidden in the dark as he anxiously interrogated her.
“Do you love her that much?”
Excruciating pain engulfed her. She inexplicably felt pathetic. Her eyes turned red as she said, “She’s caused you and me so
much harm. Why don’t you hate her? You came to her alone from so afar. Have you ever thought of bumping into your enemies?
What would happen to you then? Even if you didn’t bump into your enemies, a sports bike accident would have caused an
unimaginable result. Are you even willing to give up your life for her?”
“I told you. That’s not important.”
Stefan wore a cold face and shoved her away. He then groped around and headed outside. “If you don’t want to tell me the truth,
I’ll look for her on my own.”
“Let me... go with you. I know where she is. I’ll look for her with you.”
Even if she was full of hatred and fury, she could not bear to leave Stefan alone, let alone Jovan, that cunning excuse of a man.
She wiped away her tears and quickly went forward to support him. “I told you. I’m your walking stick. I’ll be with you no matter
where you want to go.”

“Seraphina, thank you. I know you’re a good girl. You won’t kill her.”
Stefan looked in Seraphina’s direction in a daze. “Help me find her. I won’t hold you responsible if she’s fine.”
“Wait, count me in!”
Jovan had been standing inside the warehouse and observing Stefan and Seraphina.
Their conversation was strange, especially the insufferably arrogant Stefan. He was extremely weird.
Was the rumor true? His perfect cousin was blind?
“Go and look for her on your own. Don’t follow us!”
Seraphina was not dumb. She’d been protecting Stefan all along, not giving Jovan a single chance to approach him. She obeyed
Francine’s order and tried her best to prevent Jovan from realizing that Stefan was blind.
Luckily, it was a dark, moonless night. Hence, the outside and inside of the warehouse were in pitch darkness. Nothing could be
seen.
Jovan attempted to approach Stefan to observe his eyes, but he was blocked by Seraphina fiercely.
Of course, he was in no mood to investigate if Stefan’s blindness was true. He wanted to find Renee as soon as possible, so he
could stop the debilitating anxiousness that plagued his soul.
They walked on with great difficulty, trundling through the rough mountain road that was behind the warehouse to the river.
Seraphina felt that it would not do, so she stated honestly, “Let me be frank with you. I was kidnapped at that time, so I didn’t
know where Renee went. I just wanted to curse her when I claimed that she had jumped into the river. She might have long gone
home. Let’s not look for her around the river. The place is too steep, and it’s very dangerous.”
