The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

“Yes. Renee, it’s your turn.” Stefan’s eyes were filled with passion and hope.
“I...” Renee swallowed her saliva, feeling as though she had been put on the spot. Because of Timothy’s statements, she found it
difficult to concur with Stefan. If she made a casual commitment and couldn’t follow through with it, she’d be cursing Timothy.
“Ren, you said you got back together with Stefan because you love each other. Isn’t it normal for a husband and wife to swear
never to leave one other for the rest of their lives? Why are you finding it so difficult?”
Timothy frowned. He just wanted them to be happy.
“No!” Renee gulped hard, smiled gently, and clasped Stefan’s hand, muttering, “I hope that as Stefan’s wife, I can always be
happy with him for the rest of my life.”
Stefan was so astonished he choked on his own spit. He stared at Renee, eyes wide in disbelief. He hadn’t expected Renee to
say those things to him – he expected her to tell a few falsehoods and lie to Timothy.
“Renee, have you given it serious thought? Are you willing to spend the rest of your life with me?” Stefan was a born genius. To
ensure her commitment, he even utilized Timothy and said seriously, “If you leave me one day, you’ll be cursing Grandpa.”
“Of course, I’ve considered it...” She raised her head and met his eyes, saying from the bottom of her heart, “If you’re willing to
be a good husband, I’ll be a good wife as well. If you do not leave me, I will not leave you.”
She wasn’t sure whether she would regret her decision, but she was convinced of her sentiments right now. This was the best
outcome for everyone, and she was prepared to give their relationship another shot.
As Stefan said, even if there was just a one percent chance that they would be happy together, she would take it. At the very
least, she was happy when Stefan pledged never to leave her.
For the first time, their fingers intertwined tightly. It was also the first time they felt the same way about one other.
“Thank you so much, Ren. Thank you for giving my son a chance. As his mother, if he tries to cheat on you, I’ll be the first to
teach him a lesson!”
Francine was overcome with emotion, tears streaming down her cheeks as she held Alexander and said, “Alex, the day we’ve
been waiting for has finally arrived. We no longer have to be concerned about Stefan weeping in the middle of the night.”
“Exactly,” Alexander nodded eagerly.

“Who knew our son could cry more than you and be a bigger simp than I am? He wept every night for four years, but now that
Renee has returned, he doesn’t have to.”
“Pfft!” Renee couldn’t stop laughing at the mental image of Stefan weeping. “It’s all right. If he starts weeping again, I’ll smack
him until he stops.”
“What a great idea! You should strike a guy if he does not listen to you. The more you hit him, the more he’ll pay attention to you.
That’s how I get Alexander to listen to me!”
Francine proceeded to offer her knowledge on how to tame a spouse, or more precisely, how to beat a husband into submission.
“You can’t let the man get away with anything or they’ll think they’re better than you. If Stefan becomes angry at you, you must
punch him as hard as you can...”
Renee patted her chest firmly and said, “Don’t worry. In this regard, I am quite competent. I’ll smack him to make him as
subservient as Dad.”
