The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 540
Everyone froze, especially Charlotte, who didn't know how to read the room. She grabbed Zachary's arm and mumbled, "What
are you doing, babe? At least stand up for me and Casey! Why are you kneeling in front of this woman?!"
"She's just a lowly commoner now, and my brother kicked her out after she cheated on him! This woman is a sinful cheater! So
how could you kneel for her? What happened to saving face? Are you not worried you'd get bad fordoing that?!"
'The f*ck you mean by bad luck?!" Zachary was so mad that he slapped Charlotte across the face. "You idiot! If it weren't for
Liliana Scheneider back then, our family would've been destroyed long ago...’
"Everything you get to enjoy now, the food we eat, the purse you're holding, the shoes Casey is wearing... we can only afford all
of that because of our saviors, the Scheneiders! If you dare to disrespect them one more time, I'll f *cking divorce you!"
Charlotte covered her swollen cheek with one hand, and retorted, "How is that possible?! The Scheneiders of North City fell from
grace long ago!
They were hunted down by their rivals so much that they couldn't even protect themselves! So how could they possibly lend a
helping hand to the Johnstons?!"
"The Johnston family achieved everything on their own, what does it even have to do with the Scheneider family?! Besides, so
what if Everheart is Liliana Scheneider's granddaughter, do you really have to act like she's the one who helped you?!" Charlotte
screamed.
She had actually been quite obedient ever since she married the man, and figured she'd enjoy life as a rich wife with how deep
the Johnstons'
pockets are. Hence, she always listened to every single word Zachary said, and dared not to go against him.
Yet, this time, she found it extremely humiliating with Zachary basically groveling before Renee, which led to their first ever
argument as a married couple.
"You stupid woman! Are you trying to defy me now?! How dare you disrespect my savior?! Kneel down! Now!" Zachary ordered
harshly.
"I will not!" Charlotte balled her fists up and gritted her teeth. "I'd rather die than to kneel before this witch!"

"Is that so? Then I'll just have to divorce you right now!" Zachary roared with reddened eyes, clearly at his limit.
"You..." Charlotte started tearing up right then and there. She naturally didn't wish for a divorce, but the situation required her to
kneel.
She absolutely refused to kneel before Renee, the woman she had always looked down upon. That would be an absolute hit to
her ego, and she'd rather face death than to experience that.
"Zachary Johnston, if you really want to bring that up, fine! Let's get a divorce then! I'm done enduring your antics anyway!"
Charlotte pointed at the man, not backing down at all.
She hadn't quite been happy during their entire marriage anyway, despite having all the riches in the world. However, her pride
didn't allow her to become someone who was kicked out of the family, nor did she want to hurt her son. Thus, she couldn't bring
herself to get a divorce.
Now that it had come to this, she no longer wished to hide her true feelings. At the very least, she didn't want to seem weak in
front of Renee.
Renee, on the other hand, found the situation rather odd, especially with Zachary kneeling before her and Charlotte crying
profusely.
'I just came to take a look at this kindergarten with Adie! How did I end up messing up someone else's relationship?
'Tsk tsk tsk. Looks like I'll have to step in.'
"Mr. Johnston, please get up first. Even if my family helped you, I didn't have a part in that. You two really don't have to get a
divorce because of me. I can't possibly bear knowing that I was the cause of a broken marriage. IV
However, Zachary seemed as if he was glued to the ground. "Miss Everheart, you're the last remaining descendant of the
Scheneider family now. Back then, your family had to face such a terrible fate... It was a shame that my family was just starting
up then, and we couldn't help you the way you helped us."
"For decades, my father felt extremely guilty because of that. He would always tell me to appreciate and repay someone's
kindness at all costs. So thanking you now is considered good karma for my family..."

"Since my dumb b*tch of a wife refused to apologize for what she did to you earlier, and insulted your son, I have decided to
divorce her. You don’t have to persuade me otherwise!"
"Ah, hearing this kind of reminds me of a lot of sad memories though..." Renee let out a long sigh.
Back then, her grandmother's family, the Scheneiders of North City, had really thrived tremendously
