Big Novel

The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 1121
The car stopped before an antique shop.
Renee wanted to push Jovan into the shop, but she was turned down.
"Wait for me in the car. The driver can push me into the shop."
He did not want to expose the surprise he prepared for her in advance, or all his efforts would be futile.
"Okay, I would like to see what kind of trick you will pull."
With deep curiosity, Renee watched the driver push Jovan into the antique shop.
She leaned against the back seat in slight boredom. When she checked the time, it was coincidentally afternoon at Beach City.
The two children might have gone home from school by now, so she gave her brother a video call.
His brother always answered her calls within seconds. But strangely, today, he did not answer her calls at all. She tried
repeatedly, but it yielded the same result.
"What's the matter?"
A crease soon formed between her brows as a bad premonition overwhelmed her.
She immediately called Margaret, and the latter picked it up just as quickly.
"Miss Ren, what a coincidence! I was about to call you."
Similarly, Margaret had a deep frown on the other end of the phone. Anxiety was her friend now.
"Margaret, you sound so anxious. Did... something happen?"
"Yes, Miss Ren. I don't know whether I should report this to you or not. Both Chase and Miss Lei asked me not to tell you first for
fear that you'll be worried..."
"What's wrong? Tell me now."

"It's like this. Mr. Everheart went to the south for a business trip a week ago. He should be back two days ago, but he's not back
yet at the moment. The two kids miss their uncle very much, so they asked me to give him a video call. However, I couldn't get in
touch with him. Chase claimed it was very normal, given their kind of business. Sometimes they need to go to places where they
can't get in touch with the outside world. Hence,
Chase asked me to patiently wait for a few days. But I feel quite worried."
While describing the incident, Margaret heaved a long sigh. Quinton was the descendant of the Everheart family, so he was the
same as Renee.
They were the masters that Margaret vowed to devote her life.
If anything happened to them, she would not be able to answer.
"So, you couldn't get in touch with him for two days?"
"Yes, I heard from Chase that Mr. Everheart went to the south to collect a batch of treasures. The other party is rather violent and
rough. So, I'm afraid that something may happen..."
When Margaret reached that point, she said carefully, "Miss Ren, when will you settle your issues over there? When are you
going to return to Beach City? Both you and Mr. Everheart are not around. So, Miss Lei is the only one managing Azure Group.
It's already a mess. A few days ago, some people came to make a scene. Miss Lei fought against them head-on. Now both
parties involved were taken away by the police officers. Miss Lei is injured too..."
"What? Lei is injured and locked up?"
Renee felt her temples throbbing. She was soon filled with deep guilt.
Both Renee and Liam worked hard and endured hardships for four years to establish Azure Group, developing it into what it was
now.
During the half year that she was away, it was always her brother and Leia who helped to manage it.
Both of them were not good at doing business. Besides, they knew little about anything to do with electronic technology. Hence,
it must be very difficult for them to manage the company.

"That's right. They were too strong. They came to the company to provoke Miss Lei. She was so angry that a fight broke out, and
she and hurt one of them. They quickly grabbed onto this incident and sued her for a criminal offense. Now... she's still in prison.
I don't even know how much she has suffered."
Margaret had long wanted to tell Renee about those affairs, but she held herself back all that while, fearing she might affect
Renee's mood.
But now, they needed Renee badly. If Margaret kept it a secret any longer, they might get into bigger trouble.
"Oh, okay, I got it. Dont worry. I'll come up with ways to deal with it."
Clutching her phone, Renee felt great frustration and annoyance washing over her.
She knew that she should have gone home long ago. She should not have asked Quinton, Lei, and Margaret to bear those
things. But...
She inevitably looked toward the antique shop. Jovan was still in there, waiting to present the surprise he had meticulously
prepared for her.
What would happen to Jovan if she left?
