THE UNTOUCHABLE EX-WIFE - Season 2 Episode 62

Briar sprang out of her recliner as if she was facing a strong enemy and shouted fiercely. “What are you doing here? Don’t you know that trespassing is illegal? I can call the police to arrest you, you know!”

“You want to call the police?”

Renee smirked. She took out her phone and dialed 9-1-1, and handed it to Briar. “Go on and ask the police to come so they can see how abusive you are.”

“When did I abuse anyone? As the mistress of this villa, I have the right to beat and scold my employees at will! These people should be punished when they make mistakes.”

She raised her chin, emphasizing the word “mistress” with a sense of smugness.

The few servants who were beaten up from the torture cowered in a corner, not daring to say a word.

“The mistress of this villa?”

Renee sneered and asked in return, “How can you prove that? Is your name on the title deed?”

“If you can’t prove your ownership of this villa, the employment relationship between you and the servants will be non–existent. and your so–called punishment can easily be constituted as a crime. As long as they want to, they can file a lawsuit and send you to jail. A sentence of three to five years will not be a problem.”

Renee’s casual remark, which could bring Briar big trouble, subdued the latter instantly.

Briar clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. “I am now pregnant with Stefan’s child. This villa will eventually be mine. Everything in the Hunt family will also be my son’s in the future. A few servants are

nothing!”

“Hah, you are being naive again. Miss Desrosiers.”

Renee looked at Briar as if she was an idiot and savagely poked her sore spot. “First, without my agreement, this villa will never be yours, as I own half of this property. Secondly, as long as you are not married to Stefan, your child will forever be illegitimate, and his right to become the heir of the Hunt family will be uncertain.”

This villa was a bride price given to Renee by the Hunt family back then. She was supposed to be the only owner of this villa, but she insisted on adding Stefan’s name to the title deed.

Though they were now divorced, she still had not transferred her ownership to Stefan. Therefore, she was still, technically, the rightful owner of this villa. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

“Shut up, you b*tch!”

Briar went crazy after hearing this and pounced on Renee. “You are just an abandoned woman. How dare you gibber in front of me? So what if Stef and I are not married? Stef did not even want to touch you. You don’t have the right to even have an illegitimate child!”

Renee grabbed Briar’s wrist and said coldly, “I don’t fight with you simply because I am too lazy. I’m warning you: you better be kind to me, or don’t even think about joining the Hunt family. Even the thing in your belly won’t be invited, not to mention you!”

After saying that, she flung Briar’s hand away, causing the latter to stumbled and nearly fall.

“You!”

Briar was stunned by Renee’s cold and unyielding gaze.

This was the first time she realized that the woman standing in front of her was not as weak as she appeared to be.

And when she thought about the fact that Stefan still had lingering feelings for Renee, she knew that she would not have any advantage when they had it head–to–head.

Therefore, she suppressed her urge to fight and said. “I know you hate me since I am the one who took everything away from you. You can beat or scold me if you want, but can you stop pestering Stef? Don’t you have your next target already? Though the Osborne family is not as powerful as the Hunt family, they are still part of The Great Eight of Beach City. They are more than qualified for a person like you.”

Renee was speechless. Briar and Stefan were incompatible in every way, save for the rather identical cockiness they both

displayed.

She did not bother to say anything more and pointed to Lydia, “You, bring me upstairs.”

As the housekeeper of the villa, Lydia used to make things difficult for Renee under Francine’s order.

But now, Renee was a heaven–sent savior to her, so she would be more than glad to obey her.

Briar watched as the two went upstairs. There was nothing she could do, so she could only take it out on the other servants.

Lydia led Renee upstairs and said cautiously. “Ma’am, thank you very much for saving us. If you hadn’t appeared in time, we would have been tortured to death, we…”

“Stop it!” Renee swept a cold lance at Lydia. “I wasn’t trying to help you. Don’t get over yourself.”

The picture of how these servants drove her away and how they curried favor with Briar was still vivid in her mind.

She was not the kind of forgiving person who repaid her grievance with virtue. She did so simply because these servants were

still useful to her.

Lydia knew that she had mistreated Renee in the past, so she did not dare to say anything more.

The two went to Renee’s old bedroom. When they opened the door, Renee saw that the room was totally empty. There was not a single thing inside.

“Where is the baggage I left in this room?” Renee looked at Lydia and asked.

“Um… Lydia stammered. She was obviously afraid of something.
