The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 272

His arrival left everybody stunned.

Cecilia's mother was the first to react. Seeing that her son-in-law Christopher really was going to slip through their fingers, she quickly latched onto Stefan instead.

"So you've come, Stefan! Cecy here has been talking about you just now. There's been a misunderstanding between you two. I think it's high time you clear it all up!"

"The truth is," she continued, "Cecy was inexperienced and very naive emotionally through those years. That's why she..."

"Mom!" Cecilia interrupted her, feeling humiliated. "Didn't I tell you to stop talking about that?"

Christopher, on the other hand, seemed unperturbed. He even casually patted Stefan's shoulder and half-joked, "I'll leave everything here to you now. I trust that you'll handle everything well."
