The Untouchable Ex-Wife



Chapter 2258

Renee's words turned the air cold.

Justin stopped walking and looked at her, his gaze ice. He demanded, "You want to end it here? What do you mean?"

Renee was filled with guilt. She avoided Justin's fierce gaze and tried to make the topic less stressful. "I mean... Let's end everything here."

"Hmph!" Justin snorted, unable to hide his disappointment. He found it unfair. "It's just a small thing, but you want to give up so easily. Is our relationship that fragile?"noveldrama

"I just don't want to make things difficult for you." Renee heaved a long sigh, overwhelmed with emotions.

She belonged to the dark and was fine with her gloomy side, but she didn't want to pull Justin into the darkness. She felt that ending things with him as soon as possible was the right choice.

After all, she could never treat Quinton as a stranger for the sake of her happiness. If she had to choose between the two, she could only choose Quinton. She was all he had.

"No, I don't think so..." Justin frowned, despondent because of how Renee tried to distance herself from him. Downcast, he said, "We could have solved the issue with more communication, but you wanted to give up straight away. You didn't even want to try. If it were Stefan, would you have risked your life to fight for it?"

"Hey! Stop being sarcastic!" Renee knew that he was jealous, which she found amusing." Don't worry. I'd make the same choice if it were him."

"What's that?" Justin asked tentatively.

"Of course, I'll pick my brother! When he fought against him, I was stuck in the middle. In the end, I picked him because he was abandoned once. As his only family member, I can't abandon him for the second time because of my trivial romance. And now, Grandpa Baldwin is against my brother. I think our families will resent each other because of this. I don't want to make things difficult for you, so..."

"Not at all!" Justin immediately interrupted her and vowed, "Just leave it to me. I'll handle it well. I won't make things difficult for both of us. We'll just have to prepare for the wedding."

Renee was moved to see Justin's serious and firm expression. "You..."

When faced with the same problem, Stefan's attitude had been different. Although he and Quinton made peace in the end, both of them had paid a great price.

Renee couldn't comment on their different attitudes as she couldn't tell which was right. However, Justin's firmness reassured her.

She was no longer hesitant. At that moment, she became as certain as Justin.

"Okay, we'll hold on and face it together," Renee expressed firmly, locking eyes with Justin and reassuring him.
