The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 244
Having paced around the dessert section for quite some time, Renee began to feel her stomach rumble. She hadn't eaten
anything yet.
At the time, she was scarfing down a piece of mousse cake, as if she intended to join an eating competition. There was even still
some cream stuck to the corner of her mouth, which made her look somewhat adorable.
When someone called out to her out of nowhere, she lifted her head, and her eyes met Stefan's gaze that loomed over her.
She found her current state rather embarrassing, so she quickly tidied herself up, putting on an elegant act. "They forced me to
take this cake. I didn't really want to eat that much..."
Christopher smiled, seemingly fond of this side of her. "Looks like our employees are pretty responsible... Don't worry, though-
we've hired the best bakers, the best of the best, to make these desserts. They made sure to choose the ingredients well so it
wouldn't be too fattening either!"
Stefan's hands were snug in his pockets. He stared at Renee with a cold gaze as he blurted, ' And here I was wondering why
your stomach grew so much."
'Damn it!' Renee was so mad that she wished she could slam the cake into the man's face.
'He needs to shut it if he has nothing good to say! He's so annoying!'
However, her current self would not easily back down after feeling offended.
' Oh? Well, I guess it's fair coming from you, Mr. Hunt, since you have no excess fat around your waist. But I do wonder if you've
done any' adjustments' to achieve those fake-looking muscles." Renee spoke in a sarcastic tone.
'Shouldn't you know if they're real or not?" Stefan remained expressionless. "Especially when you've had so many chances to
feel me up."
Renee's face immediately turned as red as a rose, feeling slightly embarrassed. 'I'll have to admit, I did get to touch his abs lots
of times! It... felt pretty good, and I know for sure... that they're real!'
'Hold on!" Xavier turned to look at Stefan, then towards Renee. His gut was telling him that something was up, so he asked,
"How would you know what your stomachs look like? Could something have happened last nigh..."

'No!" The two denied at the very same time.
This made their thoughts wander off even more, which made Christopher grin. He pondered for a brief moment, 'Looks like last
night was quite... interesting for them. Stef finally did something good this time round.'
With that, the guilt in his heart was once again lifted.
"Alright, let's not dawdle any longer. We should go!" Christopher said to everyone.
Xavier quickly agreed. "Mhm, mhm! The main characters are Chris and Cecy today! You two can show your love story sometime
later! We're going to be late if we keep staying here!"
Scanning everyone, Christopher pointed towards the expensive wedding car and made arrangements on his own. "Let's ride in
the same car. Xavier, you're driving."
"C'mon... Don't we have a chauffeur? Why should I dri..." Xavier whined but stopped as soon as he understood Christopher's
intentions.
Nodding, he replied. ‘Alright, I'm great at driving! So count on me, y'all!"
Thus, Christopher and Xavier quickly sat down in the front, forcing Renee and Stefan into the backseat.
Renee took a cupcake from the tray while speaking awkwardly. "I don't think I should go. I'm not that close with you guys
anyway."
Putting that aside, all she really wanted was to try every dessert available since the bakers Christopher hired were extraordinarily
skilled.
She’d rather happily enjoy these delicacies at the seaside than pick up the bride with these men, forcing herself to endure the
awkwardness between them.
"It's fine. You might not be close with us, but you're close with Stef. That's enough for us to bring you along!"
