The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Finally, Stefan had a mental breakdown.
No matter how strong his heart was, how could he convince himself to face such a hard truth?
“That’s all I wanted to say. Your body is clear of snake venom now. My boss is a man of his word. Soon someone will take you
back to the Hunt family. Take care.”
After that, Chase gave Stefan a firm bow full of apology before he left the room.
After a long silence, Stefan’s crazy roars came from the room. He sounded like a wounded beast. There was even the sound of
things being smashed.
“Renee, you’re such a cruel monster!”
Standing not far away from the room, Chase rubbed his fingers together in a deep struggle.
Quinton was standing beside Chase with his head high and chest out.
He then cracked a satisfactory smile and nodded at Chase. “Chase, you did a good job. So, it seems you’ve made up for your
faults with some contributions. Work hard at Carmine Pawnshop from now, and I won’t hold you responsible for what happened
in the past.”
However, Chase was full of worry. He endlessly looked toward Stefan’s room and said in concern, “Sir, Stefan seems to be too
agitated. He hit and smashed things. Isn’t it dangerous? After all, he’s a blind guy now. What if he steps on the broken pieces of
the porcelain...”
“Don’t worry. He’s a very cunning man. He’s just venting his feelings. He won’t hurt himself. What’s more... I’ll ask someone to
give him a ride home. Nothing will happen to him.”
Chase was at a loss for words.
He then lowered his head and heaved a long sigh. He appeared like he wanted to say something, but he dared not do so.
Consequently, Quinton’s eyes turned cold before he glared at Chase and uttered, “What’s wrong? You can’t bear to do this, huh?
Don’t forget how cold-blooded he was back when he got rid of our Carmine Pawnshop. You’re the only one left in The Three
Musketeers. Are you grieving over your enemy?”

“No, of course not!”
Chase hurriedly explained, “He deserves to die. Sir, you let him off the hook. So, it’s considered his blessing. Of course, I won’t
pity him. I just think that...”
“What do you think?”
“He’s indeed despicable, but he’s sincere toward Miss Everheart, and so does Miss Everheart. You asked me to say such cruel
words just now to sew discord between him and Miss Everheart. Will it... be bad for Miss Everheart?” Chase asked carefully.
Renee risked her life to save Stefan. When she woke up, she ran over to visit him, who was still in a coma.
However, Quinton asked Chase to distort the truth purposely and claim that Renee was a cruel and bad woman. Hence, Chase
felt that it was too cruel for both Renee and Stefan.
“Humph! What do you know?”
Quinton always planned ahead. He explained, “I did this for my sister’s sake. She wants to cut off all ties with this guy, so she
needs some very extreme means. I’m just granting her wish.
“Acting on impulse would only harm her. Look at what she did this time! She knew that the water dungeon was full of venomous
snakes, but she dived in just to save a traitor. Luckily, she was rescued. We can’t be sure if the same thing will happen again...
She’ll never be harmed if emotions and love are completely eliminated!”
“That’s right. Getting rid of all emotions and love is the slogan you asked us to remember when you first established Carmine
Pawnshop. We’ve been adhering to it for so many years. You even acted like a role model that was never in love. That’s why
Carmine Pawnshop is so glorious. Maybe your method is indeed good for them.”
After dwelling on it for a while, Chase chose to side with Quinton. He even began convincing himself.
“Hmm, never in love...”
Quinton rubbed his fingers together. His gaze slowly turned gloomy as his memories overwhelmed him.
He was once stubborn enough to fall in love. After that, he swore never to fall in love again.

That kind of thing was no different from poison. Once a person got in touch with it, one would be filled with deep pain. It was
even fatal.
