The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 2178

The man was stunned, then laughed heartily.

"No wonder you're Stefan's most beloved woman! You're smart."

"Huh? He's Macsen? How can you tell?" Leia looked at the man with confusion, her eyes widening. She never took this man as the amazing figure Liam had talked about.

"In the whole fort, other than Benjamin, the master, no one could offend Liam and snatch the hostages away from Mateo except for you, the one with an army. Plus, I hurt your dearest son. It's not hard to guess your identity," Renee said, her logic sound.

"What a logical analysis! You think fast. I admire you for that." Macsen clapped, giving Renee an admiring look. The next moment, he turned cold. "Since that's the case, I won't beat around the bush. I took you here to settle the grudge between us."

"It's fine if you want to take revenge on me, but you have to let my friend go." Renee stood in front of Leia, meeting Macsen's gaze boldly. "This incident has nothing to do with her. Don't hurt her."

"No." Macsen shook his head, then said regretfully, "I wanted to keep you alive. But since I've got you here, I can't let you go safely. It'll be humiliating for me. You're such a smart woman. It'll be lonely for you to die alone, so I'll let your friend be with you. I'd be too cruel if I didn't allow that."

"That's ridiculous! You're just a bloodthirsty monster! Are we supposed to thank you now?" Leia roared.

Macsen was pissing her off. This was the first time she heard someone make killing people sound so good. He claimed that he was kind, too—what a hateful hypocrite!
