The Untouchable Ex-Wife

Chapter 477
“Leia, if you find out one day that I’m not as simple as you imagined, and I turn out to be a bad person, would you... Would you
forgive me?” William asked.
“Why are you asking that? I knew you were up to no good... But it depends on how you define being bad. If you hurt me, I’ll
decide if I should forgive you based on how serious it is. However, if you hurt my friend, I will never forgive you. In my heart,
Renee will always come first. She’s more important to me than anyone else. If you cross this line, you and I are over for good.
Do you understand?” Leia asked.
To her and her brother, Renee wasn’t only a good friend. She was the person who gave them a second chance at life. They
treated her like their idol, and they were determined to protect her to the ends of the earth.
William’s facial expression froze after hearing this. He remained silent for a long while before replying. “Alright. I understand. I
know what to do.”
Leia was confused. “What do you mean? Why are you beating around the bush? Are you going to ask your friend for help or
not?”
“Leia, I’m sorry. I can’t help you with this. If you want to break up with me because of this, then so be it.” William’s eyes filled with
tears. “I’m a bad guy, and I’m also an idiot. I don’t deserve to live. However, I never regretted meeting you and falling in love with
you. Thank you for saving me. I love you, Leia. Goodbye!”
“William, you...”
William hung up before Leia could finish her sentence. He was already crying.
It wasn’t difficult to deduce from what Leia said-if he came clean right now and returned Adie to Renee, they might still be able to
get back together. However, if he sent Adie to Carmine Pawnshop, their relationship would be over for good.
He loved Leia. Naturally, he didn’t want their relationship to end. However... More importantly, he was worried she would get into
trouble because of him. Carmine Pawnshop’s owner might exact revenge on her.
That’s why he’d rather go through with the breakup than take the risk...

“I’m sorry, kiddo. I don’t want to hurt you either, but if I don’t do this, the woman I love will get hurt. I hope Mr. Q wants you
because he genuinely likes you.” William turned around and looked at Adie. He sounded apologetic.
Despite committing an evil crime, William was a reasonable person. That’s why he’d already thought of a way to redeem himself.
Once he sent Adie to Carmine Pawnshop, he’d offer a clear explanation to everyone.
The car eventually stopped at a gas station.
William was feeling awful. He decided to get out of the car for a smoke.
Just as Briar had said, Adie was still sound asleep due to the sleeping pills’ effect.
However, when William walked far away, Adie got up.
Adie knew ahead of time that Briar was up to no good, so he swapped the glass of milk infused with sleeping pills with a regular
one when she wasn’t paying attention. He was only pretending to be asleep all this time.
Therefore, he heard everything Briar and William said. He was intrigued by the Carmine Pawnshop’s owner that they spoke
about. He wanted to meet this guy.
If this person turned out to be capable, Adie might even try persuading him to work for Mommy.
After all, Mommy had been working hard for many years. Even if Liam was there to help her, he couldn’t do much for her. The
more, the merrier. Mommy would have an easier time too.
However, Briar was too evil. Not only did she hurt Mommy, but she even tried to sell him. He couldn’t forgive her.
Adie retrieved his phone and dialed 911 according to plan.
“Police officer, help me. I’ve been kidnapped and sold by Briar Desrosiers, a human trafficker. She’s at Hotel XX right now. Hurry
up and arrest her. Oh, and send someone to save me. My name is Aiden Everheart. My Mommy is Renee Everheart, and my
Daddy is Liam Osborne. Ahh... The bad guy is here!”
