The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 1045

Francine's words nearly scared Seraphina to death. She gulped, trying to explain herself right away. "I-It's not like that, Aunt Francine! It's just that the person who gave me this recipe has a… special identity. I don't think she should be near Stef at all…"

"Really?" Francine asked doubtfully. She wondered, 'The person wants to save Stef, but can't go near him. Isn't that just a contradictory statement?'

Seraphina sighed deeply and glanced at Stefan. She then leaned closer to Francine and whispered the truth to her.

The mother instantly understood, balling her fists as a conflicted expression appeared on her face. Finally, she said, "Whatever, this recipe came from unknown origins, so we shouldn't put too much effort into looking for that person. If that expert was just trying to reel us in with something good, then betrays us later, we'd be in trouble."

"You're right, Aunt Francine. I am worried that this person might plot against us, so I didn't dare to use the medicinal tea. Nothing comes for free after all - who knows what their intentions are?" Seraphina nodded eagerly.

"Mhm, let's not look for them," Francine said absently.

The two started cooperating with each other, trying their best to make their decision sound reasonable.

Layla instantly realized that this expert was indeed quite 'special', and chimed into their conversation as well, "This medicine isn't all that great, actually. If the ingredients aren't measured properly, it could be harmful to the body instead. Who knows if this person is trying to do good? We shouldn't trust them so easily."

Stefan was silent the entire time, his expression dark and unreadable. He wasn't stupid, especially when the three women had such bad acting skills. This only made him certain that Renee was special to him in some way.

They were not merely 'afterlife buddies'.
