The Untouchable Ex-Wife

He barged in and held Renee’s shoulders, asking anxiously.
“I’m fine. Go and save Joanne now. She’s in great danger.”
Liam pressed the gun to the guard’s head and demanded, “Where’s Joanne?”
“I’m not telling you anything, so you might as well kill me.” The guard tilted his head and
closed his eyes, refusing to give in.
“You!” Liam was greatly infuriated. The people in the fort had undergone high-intensity
physical and mental training, so they were loyal to Benjamin and would never easily admit
defeat.
“Maybe she’s in the dismantling room,” Amber said hesitantly. “I once heard from Mateo that
anyone who betrays my dad will be sent to the dismantling room. Their body parts will then
be dismantled and sold.”
“What?” Renee clenched her fists and snarled indignantly, “That old man is merciless!”
“Maybe that’s why Joanne reported my dad. I didn’t expect that... it would put her in such
great danger.” Amber kept her head low. She did not approve of some of Benjamin’s
actions, but as his daughter, she did not know how she could stop all this.
“There’s no time to wonder. Let’s go to the dismantling room and save Joanne before your
father sends his people here to stop us.” Renee scowled, wishing she could destroy this
terrible place.
“Yes, we can do that, but I heard that there are thirty-two dismantling rooms, and they’re all
over the fort. What’s more, this fort is 50,000 acres large,” Amber elaborated timidly.

Bewilderment and deep despair overcame Renee. It would be like looking for a needle in a
haystack if they wanted to find Joanne!
“It doesn’t matter, let’s just go.’ Liam realised how serious the issue was, and knew they had
to leave now if they wanted to have a chance of saving her.
“Yes, let’s go.” Renee nodded and suggested, “Let’s split up and look for her. It’ll be more
efficient.”
“No way!” Liam held Renee’s hand and said firmly, “I finally rescued you. I don’t want to part
with you again.”
Disappointment and jealousy filled Amber when she saw Liam hold Renee’s hand tightly.
‘She’s so lucky... The only time he notices me is when it’s for her.’
“How about this? You guys go one way, I’ll go the other. After all, I’m my dad’s only
daughter, so nobody dares to touch me. I can go to any part of the fort quickly. I’ll contact
you once I find her,” Amber said sincerely.
“That’s a great idea. Thank you.” Liam agreed with Amber’s suggestion.
They went their separate ways and looked for Joanne in every room.
Meanwhile, Joanne was wearing only her intimates in the most secluded dismantling room.
She lay flat on the surgery table with her limbs tied up. The dazzling white light above her
shone down, making her face look pale.
The person in a lab coat who was responsible for dismantling her body leaned over her,
about to anaesthetise her.

“Any final words?” The man casually asked Joanne as he adjusted the syringe
