The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 45

Renee could have just left then and there. After all, in only twenty days, she would be officially divorced from this guy, and they would forever have nothing to do with each other anymore.

Besides, if he really did die this evening, she would inherit a massive chunk of his fortune as his wife-she would be unimaginably wealthy then!

But in the end, she realized that she could not be that cruel, and that she could not just turn a blind eye to this, so she returned to the auction hall.

What else could she do, when that scumbag was the biological father to her two children? If her children found out in the future that she had just left their father to die without helping him, they would certainly hate her forever!

The atmosphere in the auction hall had almost reached a fever pitch by the time she returned to her seat.

“Five million!”

“Six million!”

“Six and a half million!” 1

Celebrities and public figures from all walks of life enthusiastically raised their bidding placards. The item being auctioned off at the moment was the ring that Renee had just taken off her ring finger a few minutes ago.

By the time Renee had taken her seat, someone had already made a bid for it at the price of 6.8 million dollars! “That’s ridiculous!” exclaimed Renee. She remembered how the diamond ring had only cost around three to four million dollars. This was definitely proof that these rich people had so much money that they did not know what to do with it!

She was about to reach out for her drink to soothe her shock, but her hand accidentally brushed against Stefan’s hand. His fingers felt slightly cold, just like his strikingly handsome but cold face-intimidating and unapproachable. “You definitely stole the show this evening…” Stefan turned to Renee with cold, piercing eyes and added, “I never knew that my wife is so benevolent and charitable that she could just take off the wedding ring that she’d been wearing these past four years and donate it without any hesitation!”

Renee picked up her drink, calmly took a sip, then smilingly responded, “There’s nothing baffling about it, Mr. Hunt. I was only trying to put the ring to good use, that’s all.”

Stefan’s eyes turned even colder than before. There was a sign of almost insuppressible rage in them. Renee was sure that if they had not been alone right now, he would have torn her into shreds!

“Mr. Hunt,” she said in a hushed tone, “as someone who was once married to you, I’d like to warn you not to go on that stage later. Someone is trying to harm you.”
