The Untouchable Ex-Wife

Leia’s heart ached for Renee as she listened to her complaints. “I get it, Renee, I really do...
As for me, I’m Seraphina to Xavier Stuart. He just wants me as his rebound, and uses me
like a tool to make him feel better about his unrequited love. His ex just needed to shed a
tear... and I lost.”
Leia looked contemplative, then suggested, “Why don’t you cry to Stefan? Maybe he’ll
remember you then.”
Renee was a little tipsy after all the liquor, and actually thought Leia’s suggestion made
sense. “Hey, you’re right. I’m his real love interest, so why should I suffer?! I should just go
to him and start crying... I wouldn’t know unless I try, right? Make yourself at home, Leia. I
have something to deal with right now.”
Stefan had clearly abducted Jovan to get back at her! Spurred on by that thought and liquid
courage, and having come up with a plan to demand Jovan’s release, she chugged her
drink and got up, ready to leave.
Leia was drawing a blank, and quickly chased after her. “Where are you going, Renee?”
“To find Stefan, and cry him a river!” Renee said cheerfully. Stefan was spiteful, but she was
sure his grudge would disappear when he saw her cry.
“I-I’m going too!” Leia exclaimed, wobbling to her feet.
“Yes, let’s cry together and hysterically—as many times as we want until we annoy him.
Let’s see if he will still harass me after.” Renee took Leia’s hand, and they left menacingly.
Beside them Chase and Plum, Leia’s maid, were left exchanging glances.

“Are those two really going to be alright?”
“Probably. Individually, they’re scary when they lose it, so they’ll probably be invincible if
they lose it at the same time.”
They held faith in Renee and Leia’s abilities, and allowed them to do as they liked.
Renee whipped out her phone and smoothly keyed in Stefan’s number-she may have
blocked him across the years, but she always saved his number.
She called the number and waited.
Stefan just happened to be chugging glass after glass with Xavier at the most expensive
booth seats in Bar of Fame, and had left his phone with Elijah.
Elijah answered Renee’s call, and the woman immediately snapped,” Where are you,
Stefan Hunt?!’
“Who is this?” Elijah asked warily, finding the voice somewhat familiar.
“It’s Renee. You left me a note asking me to find you, didn’t you?!”
“R-Renee...” Elijah was overjoyed-it was the missus! The ancient ship he swore fealty to
was sailing again!
“We’re at the VIP Zone of the Bar of Fame. Hurry over to the second floor— your seat is
waiting!” Elijah said quickly, happy to help.
Hence, Renee and Leia took a taxi despite being absolutely drunk, and headed straight
towards the Bar of Fame!
