Chapter 687

Author: Sequora
There were just too many questions—if Tom wouldn't give her any answers, then Renee just had to find them herself.

"You will be living with him after we marry, but not now." Tom refused nonetheless, clapping her cheek. "The eighteenth of October is a fine date—I'll discuss the details with the king. He'll agree to it anyway, since he loves you dearly."

That was another four weeks.

"Understood."

With that, Renee shook off Tom's hand and left the room first, her eyes flashing coldly as she wiped every spot Tom touched.

She hurried downstairs, with Tom soon following her to the drawing room.

With just a look from him, his oil baron friends left tactfully, and it was only after that when he spoke to Avid. "Your Majesty, I would like to discuss my wedding with Joan."

Holding Renee's hand with a tender smile, he said, "I fell for her at first sight and have always wanted to marry her, but I waited since I was sure it wasn't the right time when she had just returned to your side. But n

    Jasper nodded. "It's a photo of you back in high school—you were just seventeen back then. You were best friends with my younger sister Alison, and she gave this to me, saying that I should make you my girlfriend."I lectured her that you girls weren't even eighteen and should be prioritizing your studies instead, and I won't lie—I wasn't interested just from your photo. However, there was this one time when I went to your school and bumped into you, and…"Jasper smiled emotionally. "I fell for you at first sight, and it was like I'd already known you for ages."At the time, I thought I'd ask Alison to invite you to our home and hang out when you were an adult, to get to know you… But I'd also taken over leadership at Everest Group and got really busy, so I just had to leave it aside."But when you got into college and I wanted to formally introduce myself, you also met Adam Graham, your ex-husband. Allie told me that he's been very good to you, so I stayed away…"Jasper sighed, s

    "Okay."Renee nodded without hesitation and took a sip of the soup, flavored by meat and mountain herbs. The soup was thick as it was delicious, and she nodded again. "Not bad."Still, she really liked it and finished a full bowl.Jasper sat beside her, watching as the soup bottomed out and smiled ever so faintly.He cooked the soup while he couldn't sleep, keeping it in a pot that maintained the warmth before returning to Renee's side.He just didn't expect to fall asleep by her bed."Would you like seconds? I'll get you another bowl."As Jasper reached for the bowl, however, Renee caught him. "I'm good. I'm full."She suddenly felt the warmth from her palm and realized that she had been the back of his hand.She was feeling a little cold and so were her fingers, and she quickly noticed the warmth of Jasper's hand.It seemed to extend all the way to her cheeks, and she promptly withdrew her hand, unable to hide the embarrassment in her eyes. "I-I'm full. Thanks…"Nonethel

    Renee felt a warmth welling within her heart like never before, as Jasper showered her with meticulous care and tender affection."I'm fine. Thank you for yesterday," she said, pushing herself up against the bedsheets.Jasper held her waist to help her up and put a pillow behind to cushion her back. Then, sitting down on the chair next to her bed, he regarded her with a look that conveyed a mess of different emotions. "I was devastated seeing how much pain you were in. But the bottomline is, your head only hurts when you try to remember the past. As the past memories are fighting against the ones planted in your mind, you're the only one who gets hurt because of it."We don't know what would happen if this continues, but if it hurts your nerves permanently…"Jasper hung his head and sighed, unable to find the courage to finish that sentence.However, Renee was no fool, and she knew her own body better than anyone else.Turning to look outside the window, she could see the red s

    Johan shrugged innocently. "I was with you, helping Steve back to his room, and then Her Highness came back. You saw her!"Even as the blame game started among the bodyguards, Ivan shook his head and turned to Tom, pursing his lips as he said, "That's true. We all saw her get into her room to sleep."As he finished, Tom crushed the cigarette in his palm and glared at Fred. "Check the cameras.""Yes, sir!" Fred quickly went to the security room to check the security footage.In it, everyone saw Renee returning to her suite just as Ivan claimed, but she soon packed her bags to leave.However, the security system was dated, and they only tracked Renee until she got into a car, its license plate unclear."She's suddenly leaving…" Fred mused even as she wondered. "Is she connected to the lab's explosion?!""Shut the fuck up and start looking!" Tom bellowed, crushing his cigarette under his foot as he started heading for the door.That was when Ivan strode up and called out, "Mr. Gra

    Before Sylas could finish, he saw Tom right in front of him and suddenly no longer felt drowsy.Stunned, he stammered, "T-Tom? What are you doing here?"Tom strode up to him briskly and seized him by the neck. "Where's Renee?!"The blunt question only left Sylas all the more confused as he gaped at Tom. "Isn't she in her room?""Her room?! Hah!" Tom chuckled sinisterly and dragged him to the other room by his arm.He was trained in martial arts and muscular from head to toe, and Sylas was all the more helpless in his scrawny form.Like a kitten, he was carried until Tom flung him into Renee's room, pointing at the empty bed as he bellowed hysterically, "Where is she?! You said she's in her bedroom!"Sylas had never seen Tom snap like that, and his wide-eyed glare left his head blanking out too.He then turned blankly at the bed, but the sheets were crisp and clean.Clearly, it wasn't ever touched, let alone slept on that day.With that in mind, Sylas panicked.He smacked his

    Tom sighed in the backseat, rubbing between his brows as she asked, "How are things at the labs? Did you at least find the perp?"Fred twitched nervously at the mention of that, avoiding looking Tom in the eye from the rearview mirror.Gulping, he replied meekly, "Block B was completely blown out, and all the data stored were destroyed… And we didn't find anyone."Thump!Tom kicked the back of his seat as he bellowed, "Useless pieces of shit! What do I even pay you for, if you can't even catch one man?! And the security team—are they all imbeciles?! I splurged to make sure all of you are motivated to hold the fort, but all of you just watched the whole place being blown sky-high without knowing who did it! Do you even fathom how many billions I invested into that lab?!"The more Tom ranted, the more furious he was, his temple veins bulging while his knuckles and molars clenched audibly.Even Fred had never seen the man being this mad before. He quickly said, "Just give us time, s
