The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 839

Everyone left Renee and Stefan alone at night so they could have some private time together.

She wheeled him to his bedroom, and the atmosphere felt loving.

"You must be tired today… Rest up. I'll go get some rest as well. The servant will arrive later to assist you with cleaning." Renee carefully tucked her hair behind her ear and prepared to leave.

Before she could, Stefan gripped her slender wrist and gazed at her intently. "We pretended to be in love for an entire day, isn't it pointless if you leave now?"

"Didn't we agree that this is all a ruse? They've fallen asleep, so it's time to call it quits."

"But I want it to be real." He softly took her hand and put it on his handsome face. He was like a lion who had let go of his pride to beg for a pat on the back. "You want it to be real, too, right?"

"I…" She couldn't find the words to reply. His stubble pricked her palm as she stroked his face, and her heart pounded in her chest.

"Stay. I want us to sleep together… like a married couple." His voice was thick with emotion, and it made her heart ache.

Renee's face reddened immediately, and she protested, "But... but you hurt your back. How do you intend to sleep?"

"Hahaha! I know you're excited, but calm down," he whispered lustfully as he wrapped his arm around her waist and gently laid his head on her lap. "My back will be healed in a matter of days. By then, I'd have fulfilled my obligation as a husband and let you experience the delight of being a wife. But right now, I only want to sleep close to you."
