The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 247

Chapter 247

As knowledge and strength were both valued; the challenges included martial arts, mathematics, physics, chemistry, literature, history, philosophy, etc.

The first challenge was related to literature, as the bridesmaids requested the men to recite the entirety of Act 2, Scene 2 in Romeo and Juliet. They chose this because it was a touching and well-known love story fitting for a wedding.

The groomsmen consisted often handsome, smart, and wealthy heirs, some of whom had completed their postgraduate studies abroad. Yet, everyone was utterly dumbfounded upon hearing the challenge.

'What the heck? Who would randomly memorize an entire play for no reason?!' They all thought in their heads.

*So none of you can do it?" One of the bridesmaids smiled cheekily. "Fine then, I'll give you the option to bribe us. Starting from eight thousand dollars!"

"Yep, yep! Right away!' Xavier took his phone out, eager to participate. "You should have said so earlier! Why would we waste our time on something we can solve with money?"

"Hold on." Renee suddenly stood up. ’I can do it!"

'Romeo and Juliet is a play written by William Shakespeare in the 1590s.

Act 2, Scene 2, Romeo enters the Capulet's orchard...’

The woman started reciting the play all on her own, loudly and clearly.

Everyone turned to look at her, with sheer disbelief plastered all over their faces.

Xavier whispered under his breath to his close friends. "I thought she was joking, but I didn't think she would actually do it! This is way too impressive! ■

Stefan, however, didn’t seem all that surprised. He replied in a slightly prideful tone, "She's alright, I suppose. And didn't I tell you she was an honors student?"

After ten or so minutes, Renee was finally finished reciting the entire scene, which earned her a big round of applause.

Renee didn't refuse the offer, showing the QR code and receiving the money within minutes. At that moment, she realized that the wedding turned out to be absolutely worth her time.

The remaining seventeen challenges were similar to the first, and the groomsmen relied on Renee to solve most of them as well.

The woman, able to receive quite a lot of money, grinned from ear to ear.

The group then reached the final mission, and that was to convince the bride to open the door for them.

However, the door stayed shut no matter what the groomsmen said. Not even Christopher, the groom, was able to persuade her.

Renee shrugged as well, indicating that she couldn't help them this time.

Just then, Xavier nudged Stefan's arm and said, "Hey Stef, why don't... you try?”
