The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Immediately following that was the sound of Quinton’s roaring laughter.
“Hahahaha, look at you now, Stefan Hunt! I can’t believe something like this would ever happen to you. Do you remember how I
begged you to let me live all those years ago, and you refused me? Now you get the retribution that you deserve!”
“Don’t stop!” He ordered his men. “Keep it going! Keep releasing more things into the water! I want this snob to taste what it’s like
to suffer a fate worse than death!”
Just then, Stefan’s agonizing cry of pain once again rang out.
Chase was in such a panic that he stomped his feet and rushed towards Renee, who still stood coldly and frigidly there, “Ms.
Everheart, he really can’t hold on for much longer! I hope, and I wish, that you won’t regret this!”
“Ugh! So annoying! How can you be such an annoying gnat?!”
After yelling at Chase, she then turned around and returned to the water prison.
As expected, the water had reached Stefan’s neck, and snakes and insects could be seen floating and swimming in the water.
Stefan seemed to be in excruciating pain. His handsome face, which had originally been fearless and gutsy, was now twisted by
agony. It looked like he must have been bitten by the snakes many times now.
“Stop it!” Renee shouted. She could not bear it any longer. “Stop releasing more things into the water!”
“Renee!” Quinton turned around. “What are you doing back here? Are you also here to enjoy the sight?”
He then smiled with smug satisfaction at Renee and told her, “I can finally enjoy the sight of this arrogant bastard suffering in
such a sorry state! I’ve been waiting for this moment for so long.”
“Quinton,” Renee’s voice was all choked up, and her eyes were reddening as she pleaded, “I beg of you! You’ve punished him
enough. Let him go!”
“What’s wrong with you? You were so firm and decisive just now! Why are you suddenly turning soft for this garbage of a man
again...”
“Let us not waste time talking. Just let him go! He can’t hold on for much longer.”
“So what if he can’t hold on for much longer? I never intended to let him go anyway!”

“But I intend to let him go, so... you have to let him go.”
“Have to?” Quinton’s expression turned as hard as stone. “Renee, you can’t force me to do anything just because you are my
sister. I don’t “have to” do anything here. You’re just too emotional. The main purpose of what I’m doing now is to let you make a
clean break from your feelings and discard any love or affection you have...”
“Fine! If you won’t let him go, then I’ll save him myself!”
Without saying another word, Renee jumped into the water.
“Renee!” Quinton had no idea Renee could be so impulsive. He quickly raised his hand and shouted, “Quick! Close the valves!
Get her out of there!”
“Renee...” Stefan was already very weak because the snake venom had spread throughout his body, and he was barely
conscious. “What are you doing? Hurry... Get out!”
He could hardly hold on any longer now, but when he saw Renee, he told himself not to pass out and began to struggle hard to
break free from the chains.
“Listen to me! Don’t be stupid! Get out!”
“Shut—Gulp! Shut up!”
Because Renee was shorter than Stefan, the current water level was more than enough to submerge her completely, and she
inevitably choked on some of the water. It was so harrowing that she wished she could die in that instant. What was even more
disgusting was how the creepy crawlies began to slither through her clothes...
But she had no time to care about anything else. She took a deep breath and dove into the water, trying her best to free Stefan
from the chains.
The water was so murky that she dared not open her eyes. The iron chains were thick and heavy, and they were very tightly
bound. Renee smashed a rock violently against the chains till her skin was chafed. The pain was unbearable...
“Hold on!” Renee shouted as she floated on the surface. She took a deep lungful of breath and told Stefan, whose lips were
deathly pale and who was quickly losing consciousness, “You’ll be free soon!”
“You, you idiot... You can’t fool me...”

Stefan’s whole body was cold, and although two-thirds of his soul was already in heaven, his snarky wit remained.
In the end, he used up all the might that he still had left to once again tell Renee, “I’m sorry.”
