The Untouchable Ex-Wife



Chapter 2259

Renee woke up early the next day. After she was done washing up, a servant arrived and asked her to head to Austin's study.

"Okay, I'll go now."

For an unknown reason, Renee felt worried. Although the Baldwin family had let bygones be bygones and treated her as their own, she still felt inexplicably uneasy.

She had witnessed Austin's wrath and knew how dangerous her current situation was.

Her words or expressions might infuriate Austin. If so, she would be doomed forever.

During the conversation the day before, she noticed that Austin was bothered by Quinton's background. He sounded like he wanted to eliminate that trouble.

Renee understood why Austin wanted to meet her alone. He definitely wanted to criticize Quinton and make her express herself properly.

While she was walking toward Austin's study, Renee wondered whether she should contact Justin. After all, she told him yesterday that they should face any issue together.

However, though she was holding her phone, she couldn't bring herself to call him. In the end, she chose to face it alone because she didn't want to make things difficult for Justin. Austin was staying in the East Chamber, the core of the mansion. Its furnishing was ancient and solemn. He owned a large study with various rare treasures and books. Any item in the study was worth a lot. It showed how wealthy the Baldwin family was.

Renee arrived at Austin's study and could hear people talking eloquently inside.

"No, it's Tucker Dingwell! The renowned poet from the Shome Dynasty used this fountain pen. He even engraved some words on it. I'm sure it won't be faked." Austin sounded certain and stubborn, like a naughty child.

"No, it's fake! People can fake engravings too." Another person sounded as stubborn as Austin but was more confident.

"Quinton...?"

Renee stiffened; she easily noticed that it was Quinton in the study. Without hesitation, she barged inside.

"Quinton, why didn't you tell me that you were coming? Stop... Stop saying nonsense!" Renee noticed Quinton holding a white fountain pen that looked invaluable. It was crystal clear and ancient, engraved with the words, "The Great Poet".

Renee snatched the fountain pen from Quinton and pointed at the handwriting on it. "This must be Tucker's fountain pen. Look at this! His title is engraved on it. Plus, given his identity and station, Grandpa Baldwin will only use the best things. I'm sure this can't be fake."

"I knew it! Ren knows me best." Austin looked kinder when he saw Renee. He treated her as his family.noveldrama

"Why did I claim that this is fake?" Quinton said solemnly. "This isn't Tucker's handwriting. Look at the handwriting and strokes. They aren't Tucker's style at all.

Secondly, the fountain pen Tucker once used is in my Carmine Pawnshop!"
