The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

“Whoa!” Everyone there gasped in awe, unable to hide their envy at how Stefan was being fought over.
Akio instinctively brought out his pocket mirror to tidy up his hair, then turned back to the two women and said smoothly, “You
know, ladies, if you two want a pretty boy, I can arrange for a plastic surgeon to operate on me now! Would that work for you?”
Anyone would dream of being completely provided for, especially when a life of luxury was promised. Moreover, Renee and
Seraphina were quite the lookers, which made the offer even more tempting.
‘Stefan Hunt is so lucky! Not only is he a genius, but he’s been blessed with the perfect face as well!’
‘His looks alone were able to make these two beauties give up everything for him! Isn’t God clearly playing favorites here?!’
With that, everyone eagerly awaited Stefan’s answer, especially the men. All of them rubbed their hands eagerly, wishing they
could be in his shoes instead.
Stefan, however, was expressionless. “My answer has always remained the same; Miss Murphy and I are childhood friends,
after all. Thus, I hereby announce that we are officially dating.”
Seraphina felt like a weight had been lifted off her chest, and she smirked triumphantly at Renee. “You hear that? Stef chose me,
not you, even if you might be richer than me! I’m his true love!”
“True love? Hahaha, that’s the funniest thing I’ve heard all day!” Renee laughed sarcastically, refusing to believe anything Stefan
said. She knew Stefan well enough to know that a formal and dismissive ‘announcement’ like that was definitely scripted.
However, she didn’t quite understand their motives for keeping up this act.
“Stefan Hunt, if you’re being held hostage, blink once. Your acting sucks! Do you really expect me to believe any of that?” Renee
was so confused that she started wondering if Seraphina held something against the man and had forced him into this facade.
“Did she threaten you with your nudes? There’s no need to be so modest, just let her leak them – you have a great body
anyway! Don’t give up just because of a small issue like that!” Renee said earnestly.
Stefan didn’t answer her, and instead grabbed Seraphina’s hand and turned to the crowd. “Since the conference is over, I’ll be
leaving with my girlfriend now.”
They turned around and walked past Renee, quickly leaving the conference room.

Meanwhile, Renee was frozen in place. She closed her eyes as she thought to herself absently, ‘I tried, but... it was all useless in
the end.’
The others in the room wanted to speak to her, but were frightened of her frosty expression. Akio, however, was brave enough to
approach her. He circled the woman like an excited puppy, looking as if he wasn’t scared of the consequences of crossing her
boundaries.
“Miss Everheart, might I have the pleasure of inviting you to dinner?”
“I mentioned that I’d go through plastic surgery for you, and I wasn’t joking, you know? My country has the best plastic surgeons
in the world!”
“Do you want to consider an official relationship with me? I can go get a divorce right now and marry you. After our wedding, all
you need to do is sit back and enjoy life...”
Renee was rather annoyed by this, and turned to him with a cold glare. “Do you really want to marry me, Mr. Higashino?”
“Of course! My looks and body may not be as good as Stefan Hunt’s, and I may be a little older than him, but I have many other
good traits too!”
“Then help me out with something,” Renee said in a mysterious voice.
