The Untouchable Ex-Wife

Since Jovan couldn’t see, she behaved more comfortable around him.
“Then why change clothes?” Jovan’s expression seemed uneasy as he pursued the question.
“Well... Because my clothes were dirty.” Renee told a white lie, not revealing her encounter with Stefan. Otherwise, being the
jealous prick he was, Jovan would certainly overthink.
“You’re lying.” Jovan frowned, obviously aggravated. “You said that you would never lie to me, but now you’re treating me like a
fool!”
Renee realized that the man must know something. After all, many people came and went from the hospital. Being an old
acquaintance there, it was inevitable that someone would end up telling him some kind of information.
“You say I lied to you, then tell me, what did I lie to you about?” the woman asked carefully.
“Dr. David told me about the drowning incident around the lake. You jumped to save a life, so you’re changing because your
clothes are wet, not that they’re dirty!” Jovan replied seriously.
Renee felt relieved and responded. “That’s right, I lied, but I just didn’t want you worrying. That Dr. David sure has a loud mouth.
Looks like we have to change hospitals, or I’d have no privacy at all.”
She did intend to transfer Jovan to another hospital before this conversation. Now that Seraphina and Stefan were staying on the
same floor, she was bound to bump into them again.
Jovan was quite a sensitive person, after all, and he might end up causing a commotion if he were to find out.
“This matter can’t be solved just by transferring hospitals. You haven’t even realized the main problem here!” Jovan seemed so
oddly serious that Renee found him unfamiliar.
“What is the main problem then?”
“You’re not treating me as your closest, most trusted person!”
“How... did you come to that conclusion? We are dependent on each other now, is that not considered close and trustworthy
enough?”
“I’m being serious here!” Jovan was truly mad this time, emphasizing his words to Renee with a frown.

“If you treated me as your closest, most trusted person, you would have shared this matter with me first! You hid the truth from
me just because you didn’t want me to worry. But be honest. You just think I’m too weak to face the outside world! That I need to
be taken care of... I may be useless, but I am still a man with pride! Do you think I’d be happy about this?”
“I really didn’t think this through.” Renee sincerely apologized. “I’m sorry, I didn’t know that you would care so much about these
little details. I promise you that in the future if there is anything, I will share it with you first, and I’ll never hide anything from you.”
“If you really feel sorry, then tell me, is there anything else you’re hiding from me?” Jovan asked the woman intently.
“I...” Renee paused and carefully observed the man’s expression. She was not sure if the man was deliberately testing her
reaction.
‘Does he already know about me meeting Stefan?’ She wondered.
“Is it so hard to answer?” Jovan chuckled coldly. “It looks like you really are hiding something from me.”
“I don’t mean that, I...”
“Didn’t you just say that you wanted to transfer me to a hospital? I agree.” Jovan sighed deeply. “We have too many
acquaintances here. There’s too much gossip spreading about. I prefer to go to a place where no one knows us so that we can
live with ease.”
“Right, I think so too. Then I’ll go through with the transfer procedure now.”
