The Untouchable Ex-Wife

After Stefan ended his conversation with Elijah, he was in a very irritable mood. He switched his laptop off and prepared to go for
a walk nearby to relax.
For the past few days, he had been getting increasingly frustrated with company matters. It was to the point he even thought of
stepping down. However, it was impossible to abdicate the position at this very moment.
At present, looking at the entire Hunt family, the only people who were capable of taking up the responsibility of managing the
entire company were he and Jovan.
Jovan was now traveling around the world, enjoying life with that ‘liar.’ Hence, if Stefan were to give up as well, both the
company and the family would be ruined.
Reality was indeed rather cruel, as this was a dog-eat-dog world.
As the head of the eight families in Beach City, the Hunt family was able to enjoy power and glory, with just as much risk and
responsibility to bear. Thus, he wouldn’t dare to stop for a single moment, no matter how tired he felt.
Moreover, before he could even stop, the Carmine Pawnshop started to attack once again. He just couldn’t imagine what would
happen if the day he decided to give up arrived...
“The Carmine Pawnshop...” The man stood at the edge of the wide lake, his thin lips spitting out cold and cruel words. “You’re
the ones who started this first, so you deserve any punishment that comes with it!”
From a distance, he looked elegant and handsome, especially since it was sunset. As the warm sunlight fell on the lake, the
glistening water made his beauty seem all the more enchanting.
Little did one know that this gorgeous man was plotting bloody revenge in his head.
This lake in Banrea was crystal clear, with birds stopping on the surface for a small dip. The breeze was gentle, and the air was
fresh. One cannot help but feel relaxed in this environment.
On the other side, a young mother was playing around the lake with her child, who was about three or four years old. Just then,
the mother’s phone rang, and she began to talk to the person on the other end of the line.
The child was playing on the stone steps of the lake at the time. He probably saw some birds flying on the lake and intended to
catch one for fun, so he started waving his little hands while pouncing on the birds.

Careless, the child ended up falling straight into the lake.
At first, the mother had no idea about this until someone warned her that her baby had fallen into the water. He seemed to have
drifted to the middle of the lake.
“Ah, my baby, my baby!” The young mother was so anxious that she shouted from the shore, “Help, can someone please save
my child? I can’t swim!”
No one was around at that point in time. Moreover, with the place being a hospital, many who surrounded the area were sick and
frail. They clearly had little or no strength to save a drowning child.
“Someone, save my child, please!” The young mother squatted on the ground in despair, crying profusely. In desperation, she
could only hold her breath and jump into the water herself.
As expected, someone who couldn’t swim could only inch forward a few feet before sinking into the lake herself.
Stefan was on the other side of the lake, far away from the noise, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. After getting a good look, he
did not say a word and took off his jacket, ready to come to their rescue.
At the same time, there was a beautiful figure who was just one step ahead of him, jumping straight into the lake and swimming
toward the drowning child.
The man was slightly stunned, but did not think twice before jumping into the lake as well.
Not long after, the baby was picked up by the beautiful figure, while the young mother was picked up by Stefan.
Despite having almost drowned, the mother frantically jumped onto her baby without a care in the world. “Darling, oh darling, are
you okay?!”
Unfortunately, the infant had already passed out because he had been in the water for too long.
“He’s unconscious. We must perform CPR immediately!”
