The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Renee sat beside Quinton, anxiously gulping. “Quinton, what is an organ room?”
Quinton instantly relaxed and calmly explained to Renee. “The organ room is the same as any other treasure room. It’s a facility
for removing and storing organs. It is the best-selling service here at Carmine Pawnshop. However, it is a pity that the imposter
halted the business, and the shop became just another pawn shop.”
He stated it casually, as if he were discussing something as mundane as the weather.
Renee felt goosebumps crawling all over her skin, and she inquired gently, “Isn’t it illegal to deal with organs?”
“Renee, the Water Dock lies on the border of three countries. There is no law here. The only concern is about making money. Do
you know why the pawnshop is named after the color red?”
In order to make money, Carmine Pawnshop relied on the red heart of humans. A beating heart would be extracted with a sharp
blade that was sliced through the chest.”
“Stop talking!”
Renee paused in his detailed explanation of the procedure. She was mortified just thinking about the sight.
Despite the fact that she had witnessed many bloody scenes and was not afraid of blood, such slaughtering was unacceptable to
her.
He sensed her discomfort with the subject and calmed her. “Renee, the earth has different dimensions. Each dimension has its
own method of survival. Our parents raised you, so you have no idea how terrible the world is. If I weren’t harsh, I wouldn’t have
existed till today.”
Renee attempted to control her emotions.
She wasn’t so naive as to be blind to the horror of the world so she could understand Quinton’s actions.
“Because I wasn’t present in your past, I can’t say whether your actions are right or wrong. But now that we’ve reconnected,
there are some things I come across where I can’t just stand by and do nothing.”
“Tell me, what do you want to do?”
He raised his chin and stared at her lovingly.

“First and foremost, Chase is a good person who is capable of doing work,” she pulled in a big breath and stated slowly. “I
suppose he didn’t recognize you because he is too devoted to you and has no reservations about you. It’s not his fault. You can
only blame the imposter for being too wicked.”
“Also, you should cancel the organ room and run the shop as a regular pawn shop.”
Quinton grimaced and declined her request without hesitation. “No!”
“What’s the harm? Do you need financial assistance? I have enough money to take care of you. Also, do you have a blood fetish
that makes you happy only when you see blood?”
“I don’t have a fetish or a financial need. I’m just afraid of losing again. I’m worried that if I lose, it will be like four years ago, and I
won’t be able to give you better protection. I don’t want you to be bullied, and I can’t do anything about it.”
He clenched his hand and narrowed his eyes. “I understand better than anyone that wealth and power are built on extremes. We
will eventually be replaced if we merely accomplish the bare minimum.”
“How many pawn shops are there in Beach City?” Carmine Pawnshop stood out from the crowd and took over Water Dock
because we don’t do normal and lawful business!”
After hearing his remarks, she felt helpless.
“Brother, you underestimate me. I’m not easily bullied, and you don’t have to put so much strain on yourself. Even though the
Carmine Pawnshop hasn’t done any criminal business in years, the impersonator has kept it running well. Why don’t you
emulate his business style and keep doing yours?”
Quinton could not respond for a long time since it was indeed the truth.
He compromised out of not wanting to upset Renee. “OK, I’ll think about it. We’ll talk about it later. In terms of Chase’s sight...”
“You can’t take Chase’s eyes from him!”
She cast a mysterious smile at Chase. “However, I found a way where he can make up for his mistake.”
