The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 944

Renee slapped Chase violently across his face, her patience worn thin to the bone.

"Spit it out, will you?!" she demanded. "Just tell me your idea and stop sputtering like that! It's like you're teasing me!"

Chase smiled awkwardly and replied, "The impostor, Mr. Q is indeed a cautious man, and he would only contact me through text messages. There's also no way to ascertain his address or whereabouts through his phone number, so unless he's willing to voluntarily show up, we have no way of finding him. So far, the only person who can make him turn up willingly is you, Ms. Everheart."

"I'm afraid I'm not that powerful…" said Renee dejectedly. "Ever since he stood me up, I couldn't contact him at all. If he really cared about me, he would've been a little more to say goodbye before he left."

"I believe the impostor, Mr. Q, must have a good reason for it…"

"So? Get to the point. What should I do to get him to show up?"

"It's really simple." Chase curled his finger in a beckoning gesture at Renee. "Follow me, Ms. Everheart."

In the dead of the night, Chase and Renee weaved through the vast and labyrinthine Carmine Pawnshop. After a long journey through twists and turns, they finally stopped at the most remote courtyard. The place looked as if no one had stepped into it for centuries, and the door was covered in thick wads of cobwebs, cementing in an air of decay and ruin.

"Chase Cheever, what… what are you trying to do?"

Renee pursed her lips and instinctively took a few steps back.

"Don't be afraid, Ms. Everheart…"

Chase dusted off his long coat and calmly explained, "This is the area where water torture, one of the ten worst torture techniques employed by Carmine Pawnshop, is conducted. It has been four years since the last person was tortured here, so it might look as if it's in disrepair, but back in the day, people filled this place all the time. It was a much livelier place back then."
