The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

“Arthur’s right,” Alexander agreed smugly. “No one else in the entire Hunt family could ever hold a candle to Stefan apart from
your son Jovan...”
Then he viciously added, “But I’ve got a grandson and a granddaughter now. As their grandfather, I will raise them and train them
so well that they’d be able to take over the family business from Stefan one day. We won’t need to trouble your son anymore.”
Alexander’s words made Arthur and Sheila green with rage, but because old Mr. Hunt was still there, they remained cautious and
dared not cause too much of a scene. Still, these two would never give up so easily, especially not Sheila—she was not one to
take it lying down! She had been stifling a grudge all along, and now that Alexander humiliated her in front of the whole family,
she swore that she would let them pay no matter what!
“Alexander, Francine, let’s not forget that it is a happy occasion for the family, so let’s not bring up the messy past! When I heard
that Stefan got back together with his ex-wife, I specially prepared a gift just for them.”
With an affected smile, Sheila pulled a palm-sized gift box from her handbag and placed it in Francine’s hands.
“What is it?” Francine asked. She could not help but be curious when she found that the box was quite heavy.
“Oh, it’s nothing too expensive, just a two-pound lock made of pure gold.”
“What? Why would you give them a lock?”
“Well, it’s not an ordinary lock. It’s called a chastity lock. I even had a master make it...”
Sheila covered her mouth to hide her smile and continued, “Because Stefan got back together with his ex-wife, I figured that
since no one knows how many men she hooked up with in the years after they divorced, it’ll be important to let her wear this
chastity lock. That way, we can guarantee that she stays loyal and won’t dare to run from Stefan again.”
When the crowd heard this, they could not help but burst into laughter. In fact, the women seemed to find Sheila’s words
especially amusing, as they almost howled in laughter. They were already irked by Renee for sleeping in so late—a behavior
considered utterly improper for the wife of a powerful man like Stefan. With Francine’s protection, however, none dared to say
anything about it. Now that Sheila had led the way to criticize Renee, their tongues began to wag again.
“Sheila’s right, Francine. The Hunt family has a strict tradition of only letting in chaste women to the family because purity is very
important to them. If this chastity lock really does work, then I think you’d better let her wear it!”

“Besides, and forgive me for being blunt, I think you should do a paternity test on her children. We don’t ever have a gene for
twins in the Hunt family, yet she somehow showed up with a pair of twins! I’m just worried that Stefan is being fooled to raise
another man’s children...”
“...”
Francine’s rage almost reached the boiling point. She rolled up her sleeves, getting ready to battle these foul-mouthed women.
Meanwhile, Renee had just gotten up. In a set of comfy pajamas, her hair was still messy as she slowly made her way
downstairs, yawning. Awoken by hunger, she headed downstairs to look for something to eat in a daze.
But just before she could get downstairs, she noticed that the hall was filled with Stefan’s relatives. Her face instantly flushed red,
and she quickly turned around to slip back into the room to hide, but she bumped into Stefan, who was following closely behind
her, and fell right into his arms.
“What’s wrong?” asked Stefan. He held a coat in his hands, which he gently and lovingly wrapped around Renee’s shoulders,
worried that she might catch a cold from wearing too little.
