The Untouchable Ex-Wife

“I’m sorry, Mr. Hunt, I’ve misspoken. I just don’t want to see you making the same mistakes. After all, Miss Everheart-“

“She already knows the truth, so I trust that she will understand.” Stefan obviously knew that he should treat Briar as nothing more than a dead woman, but she was still the woman his brother had once loved deeply, so he did not want her to meet a cruel fate.

“Miss Everheart knows the truth?” Elijah was shocked and confused. “Wait, but then she’d know that you were merely bound by circumstance, right? Why is she still avoiding you like the plague? Could it be that… she’s fallen for another?”

“Maybe.” Stefan seemed weirdly calm, which puzzled Elijah further.

“That’s not right, Mr. Hunt. You would’ve flipped if she fell in love with another man, so why are you being so calm about this? You’re not usually so generous when it comes to Miss Everheart!”

The more egotistical a man is, the more possessive he becomes. Hence, it was only natural for him to hope that the woman he loved would only have eyes for him. No one would be able to accept infidelity, let alone Stefan Hunt, a man known for his pride. He was acting completely out of character.
