The Untouchable Ex-Wife



Chapter 1944

They chatted and laughed before eventually reaching the most popular escape room center in Beach City Screaming Night. Screaming Night stood out and remained on the top of the review list because of its realistic scenes, thrilling levels, and scary atmosphere.

After getting out of the car, Justin paid for the game while Renee and Leia waited in the lobby.

An attendant holding a tablet explained the themes to them. "Hey, beauties! There's a total of four themes in Screaming Night. Each theme is focused on horror with four, six, eight, or ten members in a group. I recommend you take the package with six people in a group. It's suitable for the theme 'Hospital Horror'. Its storyline and gameplay are the most interesting."

"Let me check it out." Renee held the tablet and read the summary for Hospital Horror. She smiled and said brightly, "Alright, we'll pick this!"

"Okay." The attendant put in the order and looked at the three of them. "You need six people to play this game, but there are only three of you. Do you need me to get other players for you?"

"It's fine." Leia waved. "My friends will be here soon." She took her phone out and called someone. "What's taking you so long? If you're not coming, I'll find someone else." After ending the call, she told Renee and Justin, 'Let's wait another five minutes. They're parking the car."

As expected, three people exited the elevator five minutes later. They were Xavier, Jeffrey, and... Stefan! The atmosphere instantly grew tense.

Leia walked forward and yanked Xavier close to pinch him harshly. She whispered, "I asked you to find someone, but why did you bring him? Were you trying to make this place a battlefield?"

Xavier shrugged innocently. "I had a meeting with Jeffrey and some directors, and Stefan happened to be there too. When you called me, they were there, so I brought them along. I couldn't ask those old directors in their fifties or sixties, could I?" Xavier had purposely put the phone on speaker mode when he answered Leia's call. Naturally, Stefan had heard everything since he was sitting beside Xavier.

Stefan hadn't reacted when Xavier sent him the photo of Renee and Justin hugging, but Stefan would always ask Xavier how close Renee and Justin were every time he met Xavier. Impatient, Xavier told Stefan that Renee and Justin had started dating, and went on dates almost every day. Stefan finally couldn't take it when Renee and Justin had wanted to try an escape room, and had shamelessly tagged along.

*Mr. Hunt, how rare! To what do we owe this honor?' Leia switched targets to Stefan. Stefan looked like he was about to negotiate an important business deal in his suit and leather shoes. "Isn't it beneath an elite like you to do an escape room? It'll be a waste of your time. Also... Why aren't you keeping your witch girlfriend company?"

"Lei!" Xavier scolded. "We're all old friends, and it's just a game. What's important is we're having fun. Stop bringing up irrelevant things!"

"I don't want to, but..." Leia didn't want to let Stefan off the hook that easily. She was furious with him and wanted to vent her frustrations.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

'Lei, Xavier's right-we just need another player. You don't have to be so serious about it." Renee extended her hand to Stefan. "You're welcome to join us, Mr. Hunt."
