The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 2175

Leia swallowed and leaned close to Renee.

She was as confused as Renee and wondered why they would get into so much trouble when she just wanted to visit Liam. Yet, everyone in the fort was out to get her and Renee killed. It felt like a dangerous adventure-there wasn't a single moment of respite!

"I don't know, either," Renee said, "but I'm guessing it has something to do with the past and the recent events. They've long held a grudge against us."

When Renee was trying to earn her living, she offended quite a lot of people since she was young and bold.

Their enemies right now loomed over them aggressively, as if harboring intense hatred against them. Perhaps it was a long-held grudge. Renee couldn't imagine anything else.

"What should we do?" Leia asked softly.

Since they were kidnapped and surrounded by armed guards, they were at their enemies' mercy. They had no idea the direction they came from.

"I don't know. Let's act accordingly," Renee said, sighing.

She had lost all energy and the means to escape. All she could do now was act naturally and resolve anything that came their way. She should at least try to figure out who wanted to get them killed.

The guard who dragged them there shoved Renee hard and urged her to walk toward one of the ships. "Get in! The boss is waiting for you! Behave yourself!*

Both Renee and Leia did as told and hurried to the ship.

Renee could see a tall, sturdy man standing on the deck of a ship with lights on from afar. He was facing away from them while watching the surging currents, pondering something.

The guard approached him, bowing, and said respectfully, "Boss, they're here."

"Mm." The man nodded without turning around immediately. He was still deep in thought.

Being a headstrong woman, Leia immediately screamed at him without thinking. "Hey, who are you? We're not your enemies! Why did you have to go this far? We can just talk it out!"

"Shut up! You can't be rude to him!" The guard was about to beat Leia up, but the man waved and stopped him.

Renee found this strange man difficult and ruthless. Those who kept their feelings hidden were as unpredictable and dangerous as the surging currents.

"May I know how to address you?" she asked the man politely.

However, the man remained quiet. After a while, he slowly turned and looked at them coldly.

"Who's Renee here?" he asked hoarsely, his eyes gleaming icily.

Renee observed him. He was a rough and tanned man, like a typical local. A deep and winding scar ran across the corner of his drooping eye, looking particularly ferocious. His calm expression rendered his thoughts unreadable. Everything about him was mysterious.

"Me," Renee admitted without any hesitation. She couldn't recall having anything to do with this man. 'Is there any grudge between us?"
