The Untouchable Ex-Wife

Chapter 1768

Renee took the coconut from Jeffrey and sipped the coconut water, and the refreshing, sweet taste was like rain in the desert. She looked up and saw the sunrise lighting up the vast sea, and felt a happiness she hadn't in a long time. It was little things like this that brought color to people's lives, and at that moment, Renee finally felt her stress melt away.

Jeffrey brought Renee to his house, which was a typical two-storey house. It was built near the sea and had been renovated two years ago. There were various kinds of flowers growing in the yard. "Renee, we managed to renovate the house last year because of your support. Dad and Mom made a room for you to thank you... I'll take you there," Jeffrey enthusiastically explained.

Feeling touched, Renee went upstairs with him. There was a large room facing the sea on the second floor with many shells and beads hanging on the door, and it looked like an urban style from the 1980s or 1990s. Ava and her family had painstakingly decorated that room for Renee. "Did you all do up this room for me?” Renee pushed the beaded curtain aside and saw a large French window. The sea breeze gently blew the thin curtain, revealing a lovely view of the ocean.

"Yeah, do you like it?" Feeling shy, Jeffrey obediently stood at the door and watched Renee, not daring to be in the same room as her. She was the woman he had admired since he was a child.

"Yes, I do." Renee nodded and touched the shell windchime hanging in front of the window. "These shells are so pretty, I'm sure it was tough to get them."

"Not at all." Jeffrey scratched his head and stammered, "They're easy to find if you dive deep enough... If you like it, I'll make another for you."

Amused by his shyness, Renee turned to him and said, "When did you

become such a good boy, Jeffrey? I remember that you were pretty naughty when you were young. I remember the time when Mrs. Joyner stopped you from going into the sea at noon, but you insisted. You didn't even listen to me, so finally, I had to beat you up for her. You even scolded me for being a witch, and you didn't want to talk to me anymore..."

"Stop teasing me, Renee, that happened so long ago." Jeffrey's tanned face turned red, and he wished he could disappear. "I'm all grown up now, so I won't do things like that anymore."

"You're all grown-up, are you? Shouldn't you be looking for a girlfriend then? " Renee teased, "Don't tell me you've already got a girlfriend. When can I meet her? I remember that you were very close to your neighbor Daisy. You both are childhood sweethearts, right?"

"No, we're not!" Jeffrey waved his hands anxiously as if he had been accused of a crime. He immediately clarified, "I dont have a girlfriend, and Daisy is like a younger sister." He glanced at Renee and quickly looked down, then muttered, "I... I like someone else." novelbin

"What did you say?" Renee frowned. "I didn't hear you."

"No, it's nothing." Jeffrey shook his head, his eyes bright. "I'm sure you're hungry. Let me cook you something." Then, he turned and ran downstairs. It was already rare for him to meet Renee, so there was no point in wishful thinking. Besides, he was too shy to get close to her.

Renee was left alone in the room, and the world became as quiet as before.
