The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

The bar owner wasn’t even trying to stop them, and instead, egged them on. “Come one, come all! It’s time to place bets on who
will win this fight...”
“I bet on that fat guy!”
“Me too!”
“That pretty chick seems like quite a fighter though, I’ll bet on her!”
Everyone crowded around Renee and Max, as if they were in an underground boxing arena. All of them were more than happy
to gamble.
Rosie immediately panicked, afraid that these big burly men would actually fight them, putting both her and Renee in grave
danger.
Trying her best to settle things calmly, she flashed a desperate smile at Max and his group. “Sir, you took us too seriously. We
were just joking, you know? Please calm down, and forgive my friend and I... We’re modest people, so I think it’s best if you find
someone you can have more fun with. We don’t have to go to such extremes over a small matter like this. People are going to
laugh at all of us, you know?”
Seeing Rosie begging for mercy, Max’s interest in her was piqued. He started brushing his thick mustache with his thumb,
scanning Rosie up and down. “I’d believe it if you say your friend here is modest, but you... Just look at your body! You must
have a lot of experience with men, huh? Do you really think I’d believe that you’re a modest person?”
Rosie’s face turned red right away, and she lowered her head shamefully. She wanted to defend herself, but didn’t have the
courage to. She had indeed worked as a bar hostess for a while, but hadn’t done anything that was considered indecent.
However, her strong principles had meant less business for the bar, so her boss had forced her to consume illegal drugs, which
led to her addiction.
It was during that dark time that people from the Carmine Pawnshop lent her a helping hand, and Mr. Q gave her a chance at a
fresh new start in life.
Despite this, her horrible past still haunted her, and even the mere mention of it made her self-esteem crumble.
“Judging by your silence, it looks like I was right...” Max grinned wickedly. “Sure, we could settle things peacefully, but first...
you’d have to please my bro Ed right now, in the toilets. You’re experienced, aren’t you? If you satisfy him, I’ll let you guys go.”

“You scumbag! How dare you even suggest such a thing?!” Renee snarled and gave him a quick backhanded slap.
“Why, you...!” Max was furious. Not only was his chest still hurting from Renee’s kick earlier, his face was now burning from that
slap. If things continued this way, he knew his reputation would be utterly ruined.
In a matter of seconds, the two parties broke into a fight. To onlookers, it looked like six burly men were trying to bully two little
damsels.
“Don’t! Please don’t fight!” Rosie pleaded, her entire body trembling in fear. She knew how violent these men could be, but
continued to shield Renee regardless.
“Get out of the way!” Max was so annoyed that he grabbed Rosie by the throat and threw her aside like a broken doll.
“Stop! Don’t hurt my friend! You’ll regret this!” Rosie screamed as she struggled to her feet, enduring the intense pain in her
limbs. However, she was far too frail, and couldn’t even get through the crowd. All she could do was scream at them to stop, but
her voice was drowned out by the crowd’s cheers...
“What do I do... What do I do?” Rosie felt like crying; she had no clue on how to save Renee. She quickly rushed out of the bar,
hoping to get help from Carmine Pawnshop.
To her surprise, she ran straight into a hard, fleshy wall...
