The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 1385

"No, it's fine." Jovan sounded gloomy and pathetic. An existence like this made him wonder if he was still alive, and he had no courage to meet Renee again. He sighed and said lightly, "I decided to leave her to set her free, and I don't regret it."

Knowing Renee's character, she would not say no if he wanted to use her guilt to make her take care of him for the rest of his life. She would've readily abandoned her brother she had just been reunited with, her children, and her career half a year ago to lead a secluded life with him in Varangia, if Jovan had asked.

During those six months, she took care of him as if he was a baby and never complained. Jovan felt it was enough; in his opinion, it had been more than worth it giving up his eyes and body in exchange for having her by his side for that time. Those memories were something he looked back on fondly, and he couldn't ask for more.

However, Eloise couldn't figure out why the smart, sensitive, and competitive Jovan had become so passive.

"You haven't forgotten about Miss Everheart, Master Jovan. Why don't you just give it a try? What if she still thinks about you? What if she'll be surprised to see you, and decides she wants to spend the rest of her life with you?" Eloise refused to give up persuading him because she knew how miserable he was living like this.

"I wouldn't want that even if she does." Jovan chuckled bitterly and said, "Any man with dignity wouldn't want to live like useless trash in front of their beloved." Even though he had been cunning and devious in the past to get what he wanted, as a man, he couldn't abandon his dignity.

"Ah, Master Jovan… Everyone says that you're wicked and cunning but you're actually a caring and loyal man. Yes, they say Stefan is honest and righteous, the superior heir of Hunt Group, but I find him to be very hypocritical. He isn't righteous at all!"

"Hmph, what would you know?" Jovan was amused.
