However, those screams were Renee’s, but Bradley’s.

“W-what happened?” The underlings exchanged looks of unease.

Five minutes later, Renee returned without a scratch on her. She cracked her neck, and her face remained expressionless as if nothing had happened. Not even a single strand of her hair was out of place.

“Have you dealt with him?” Leia asked.

“Mm-hmm, it’s been years since I did this, so I’m a little rusty. It took me two extra seconds to finish him.”

“Don’t be so humble, Ren. You may have used an extra two seconds, but it sounds like you got ten times stronger! That guy screamed like he saw an actual ghost! Is he even alive?”

“He’s probably still breathing, at least,” Renee said coldly as she turned to the underlings. “If you wish to see your boss live, get him to a hospital right now.”

Although the underlings had no clue, they could tell that something was off after hearing their boss’ wailing. Hence, all of them rushed off, visibly worried and afraid.

so far good book but to pay for 905 chapters? I can't afford that and I would think breaking this up into 3 maybe 4 books would be more profitable.

    “What do you mean?” Renee was confused.“According to your HCG levels, it seems that you’re carrying twins. And it’s very likely a baby boy and girl…”The doctor sounded full of pity. “Forget about regular twins, do you know how low are the chances of conceiving fraternal twins? It’s a miracle that they were conceived in the first place. Are you really sure you want to abort them?”“F-fraternal twins?” Renee felt another wave of mixed emotions rising within her chest as she looked at the report.“Besides that, due to your physical condition, you aren’t one to get pregnant easily. Should you proceed with the surgery, it’d be pretty difficult to conceive a second time. I’d advise you to think it over once more.”After that, the doctor adjusted her mask and turned to the door. “Next patient, please.”A nurse approached Renee and said, “If you’ve made up your mind, please follow me to the changing room.”Sometime later, the red light in front of the surgery room was switched on.

    Renee was completely dumbfounded as she stared at the man’s dashing figure from behind.She wondered. ‘Out of all the places, why is here here, and at this moment? Was he stalking me?’The gangsters were stunned by Stefan’s intimidating aura. All of them got into their fighting stance and yelled nervously. “W-who are you?! Stay out of this if you value your life!”“It doesn’t matter who I am. The only thing that matters is that you pay since you’ve decided to go against someone you shouldn’t have.” Stefan’s voice was stern, and that was enough to strike fear into their hearts.“Another brat with a death wish!” Otto crawled back up to his feet, gritting his teeth and rubbing his backside gently to ease the pain. “Do you know who I am? Why don’t you ask around the area? You two must be dying for a beating, huh?!“What are you guys standing there for? Get them!” yelled Otto.The ten gangsters immediately charged at Stefan and Renee with their metal bats.The people in the vicinit

    When Stefan regained consciousness, he realized that he was already laying on a hospital bed, his head wrapped in white gauze.Renee remained by his side the entire time. It was only upon seeing his eyes open did she let out a sigh of relief. However, she sounded distant regardless. “Since you’re up, I’ll be leaving now.”In actuality, she worried for the man, but she didn’t want him to find out.Before she left, she felt him grab her wrist.“Are you alright? Did they do anything to you?” Stefan asked weakly.Despite his condition, his beautiful eyes remained sharp as they scanned Renee from head to toe.The woman returned his concern with a cold smile. “Thanks for worrying, Mr. Hunt. But you should worry about yourself first, especially if you still have the strength to do this. I’m completely fine!”She had loved this man for four years. Once upon a time, she wished for him to show concern toward her as well, even if it were just empty words. Now, she no longer needed his

    “Ugh, watch it, you!” Francine hissed as she rubbed her forehead, trying to ease the pain. Once she realized that it was Renee who knocked into her, her anger flared up.“Why are you here?!”“I knew my little Stef would rub off your bad luck!”Renee chuckled coldly. “I’m sorry, please just endure me for another twenty days, okay?”“What do you mean?” Francine lifted her gaze, her tone hostile. “It’s not like you’ll be flying off after twenty days.”“Well, I can’t, but…” Renee shone her a frosty yet polite smile. “We’ll be legally divorced once twenty days are up.“Even if your son were to grovel in front of me, I’ve sworn to never get involved with the Hunts anymore. I figured that would be the best for both of us.”“You… you…” Francine was left in a state of shock.‘What the hell happened? She used to be so obedient back then. She would let me do and say whatever I wanted! Why does it feel like she’s a completely different person now?’“How dare you speak to me that way?!”“

    The moment Renee returned to her apartment in West Langsmith, she immediately pulled out her laptop. With just a few clicks, she disabled the virus planted in the Hunt Enterprise’s system, allowing it to return to normal.The negative remarks on the internet soon came to a half, and Hunt Enterprise’s stock price slowly regained stability.“Boss, what’s going on? We’re just getting started. Why did you disable the virus all of a sudden?” Liam sounded agitated over the phone. He called as soon as he caught wind that Hunt Enterprise was recovering. “Didn’t you say you’d focus on your career now? And that you’d be targeting Hunt Enterprise? Don’t tell me you’ve started to feel bad for Stefan. Do you still like him or something?”For the past few days, the malware in Hunt Enterprise’s system resulted in a massive leak of their client’s information. A few of their partners ended their contracts with Hunt Enterprise out of anger and turned to work with a new company instead.On the surf

    Renee directed a reassuring smile at the secretary. “Don’t worry, I’ll be able to handle it”After that, she lifted her chin and strode confidently into Stefan’s office. Just as she expected, she found the little mistress, Briar, in there.The woman was sobbing in Stefan’s arms but quickly moved away as soon as she saw Renee enter the office as if she had been caught red-handed doing something bad.“Ms. Everheart, please don’t misunderstand, we were just…”“Save it.” Renee put up her hand. Turning to Stefan, she said, “Sorry for interrupting your date, Mr. Hunt, but I’m here for the divorce settlement. I’ll leave once I’ve obtained your signature.”Stefan rested his arms on his desk and without a hint of emotion on his face, he responded, “Oh that… do you really need it in such a hurry?”‘What the hell is he saying?’ Renee thought as she suppressed the urge to beat him up. Through gritted teeth, she growled, “What do you think?!”“There’s still ten days till we are legally div

    Despite being married for four years, they rarely stood this close to each other. The air between them abruptly rose in temperature.Renee’s face was bright red as she tried her best to regulate her breathing. “Yeah, so I hope you can give us your blessing, Mr. Hunt. I’ve given you my blessing after all.”Stefan’s eyes darkened, huffing coldly. “Who is it? Is it Geronimo’s youngest son? If I remember correctly, that guy’s three years younger than you. You know that, right?”His words alone were enough to upset Renee. ‘What? Is he implying that I’m too old? Then why can other men date girls who are decades younger than them, but women can’t date someone just a couple of years younger?“And what about it? Why does it matter to you? Besides… don’t you know that a lot of younger guys prefer mature women now? Oh, how hard it was to resist his adorable efforts when he was pursuing me.”“I don’t care if you’re dating a younger guy, but Liam Osborne is off-limits.” Stefan narrowed his eye

    “Please darling, we’ve been married for four years, you know? Even if you did cheat on me… I forgive you, because… my love for you is true… Please… just don’t be so cruel to me…“I wasn’t asking for much either, I just wanted the least valuable law firm that you own. You can’t just divorce me and leave me out on the streets to starve, right? I’ll die!“I’ll give you my blessing… I’ll leave quietly for your sake! I won’t bother you at all, I just want you to be happy!”Renee’s acting was immaculate. Tears were flowing down her cheeks and she damsel in distress. Riled up by her performance, the viewers left countless comments as the stream continued.[What a jerk! Stefan Hunt really is as cruel as they say! How inhumane can he be?!][Men like him should rot in hell! She just wanted a law firm, that’s pocket change for him!][This bastard and his mistress should burn in hell!][I’m unfollowing them! Men are all the same! What a waste of good looks!]Stefan was visibly enraged at t

    They danced for around ten minutes. Renee danced to the song heartily. Her initial gloomy mood also improved.Renee drank some water and took a few deep breaths. Then, she sincerely praised Leia, "Alright. Your welcome ceremony is bizarre, but it helped relieve my stress. I like it very much!"She could tell that Leia had painstakingly prepared that gift for her. After all, it was not easy to ask the Zambawi people from primitive tribes to sing an English song. "I'm glad you like it. I did this because I wanted you to relax and stop taking things seriously. You need to stop being so hard on yourself and get rid of all the pressure!" Leia said honestly. The Zambawi hand-drum dance came with the charms of a primitive dance. Its goal was to set people free. Of course, it was suitable for Renee to relieve her stress."Yeah, your stress is relieved. From now on, you'll start afresh. This is for you. I'm sure it'll be one of your happy memories." Liam handed the previous Polaroid to

    "This is your welcome ceremony. This hand-drum dance is to help eliminate bad luck." Leia held Renee's arm, satisfied with her arrangement. She said happily, "Listen to their song! It's a great song!""Is there a song?" Renee frowned; she felt that Leia was always doing bizarre things. She wondered how Leia could come up with such a preposterous welcome ceremony."Mm, listen carefully! It's English. You can understand it." At that point, Leia said to the Zambawi people, "Put on your microphone. And sing louder."The Zambawi people gave their cooperation. They used their typical Zambawi singing to sing the English song. While listening to the song, Renee found it very familiar. "The flowers will bloom in spring, and the birds are free. I'm still waiting, waiting for my love to come back. Hurry home!""Isn't that Spring Flowers by Curtis Harrett?" Renee finally recalled what song it was. It was a song with a happy beat. It could make people happy. The Zambawi people made th

    "I don't know, either. All I ever remember from when I was young is that I led a very painful life. I once tried my best to make the Garcia family accept me. I did all the dirty and tiring jobs. I went out to work at an early age to get money for them. I also did all the house chores. "But my foster parents were never nice to me. They would always beat me up or scold me. My elder foster brother also saw me as an eyesore. He always tried to get me killed…" Quinton calmly described his past. He no longer seemed to be in pain. All that was left in him was numbness, as if he were talking about someone else.However, Renee was always in pain whenever she heard him talk about his past. She felt like she had returned to his past with him and experienced those painful things. It was normal for her to feel that way because they were twins. A lot of their thoughts and feelings were synchronized. "I suddenly recalled that I would inexplicably become gloomy many times when I was young. I

    "I'm sorry." When Renee heard that from Quinton, she realized the conflict between him and Stefan had yet to be resolved. It was temporarily put aside because of her. She occasionally saw him and Stefan talk to each other and drink together, but they merely put on a show to ease her mind. Their hatred for each other hadn't been eliminated. Instead, it was growing secretly. If Renee were Quinton, she might never forgive the person who had snatched away her beloved and seized her identity. That person even ruined her face."Why did you say sorry to me? It's the resentment between him and me. It has nothing to do with you. Plus, I didn't know he was my brother-in-law then. If I knew, I wouldn't have fought him." When Quinton recalled those affairs, he realized that people were nothing but the sport of fate. If there had been no resentment between him and Stefan, Renee might not have broken up with Stefan. Their families might even get closer. "Stop bringing up the past. It's

    During these days, Renee was under pressure because of her affairs. She had no chance to ask Quinton about it. Now, the long flight gave them a chance to have a deep conversation. They could talk about their woes and seek consolation."Me?" Quinton lowered his head and shook his head helplessly. "I'm still the same old me. Nothing is troubling me. I've been busy with Carmine Pawnshop. I have no time to think about other stuff.""You have no time?" Renee touched her chin and smiled naughtily. "Then, you must have been dwelling on other stuff. Let me guess… Is it the thing between you and Joanne?" "Stop asking so much." Quinton did not deny it but refused to talk much about that. "It looks like I made the right guess. You fell out with Joanne, didn't you?" Renee knew Quinton well. Generally, his work would not affect his mood. The only person who could affect his mood was Joanne, who shared a complicated relationship with him. Before Renee left Beach City, she had created a l

    After a long while, Quinton turned around. He looked at Renee, who was across from him, and heaved a long sigh."We're about to go home soon. Why do you look this gloomy? What's wrong…? Are you reluctant to part with this place?" Quinton said. "No, I'm not." Renee poured herself a glass of orange juice and sipped it. She frowned and dwelled on it before she said, "I feel empty inside. I don't know if I made the right choice.""Empty?" Quinton asked curiously."I think I've said goodbye to a steady life since I decided to leave. Maybe I'll keep on wandering from now on," Renee said melancholically. The reason why she chose to give it a try with Justin because she was tired. She was exhausted from leading a wandering life and wanted to settle down with someone. Others could not give her the sense of security like Justin. When she saw him, she inexplicably wanted a home. At that time, she thought she could forget about everything and start a new life with him. Unexpectedly, she

    Adie was still a child, but he acted like a smart person and could see through a lot of things. He could guess why Austin took them to the Baldwin residence. He had also heard the servants of the Baldwin family rebuking Renee in secret. After combining various situations, he learned about what had happened between Renee and Justin. Despite everything, Justin could forgive Renee under such circumstances. He also treated Adie and Abby nicely. It proved that he was a very compassionate man. A small regret gripped Adie. He wondered why Renee didn't date Justin right from the start. If Renee were with such a kind man, she might be very happy. She wouldn't have to suffer through so many hardships either. "No, you don't know me. I always sweat the small stuff."Justin was displeased since Adie had claimed that he was a good guy, like Renee had. He heaved a long sigh and said, "But it's useless even if I sweat the small stuff, so I stop trying. It all comes down to fate. We can't forc

    Renee turned and found Jovan unscathed. Relief washed over her. She said grumpily, "It's none of your business!""Tsk! How cruel!" Jovan clutched his chest and pretended to be in deep pain. At the same time, he teased, "I know. Your soulmate is better. I'm so jealous of him, though he's still a fallback guy.""Go to hell, Jovan!" Jovan's nasty words drove Renee mad. She grabbed a piece of napkin, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it at his face. "If I knew you'd talk so badly, I wouldn't be bothered to save you. Maybe you'll get reborn in Ulria. Then, you have to watch your tongue!""Hey! Yeah, I was wrong. You don't have to curse me like that!" Jovan raised his hands to surrender, but felt quite moved. He poured himself a glass of milk and devotedly toasted to her. "Thank you for caring about me and trying your best to save me. I'll toast to you. And you can do whatever you want.""You're so childish." Renee rolled her eyes and was amused.Justin was quite jealous to see them

    "What's that?" Justin frowned and said with disdain, "That's something to fool naive women like you. Only lovestruck fools will believe that." As a materialistic person, he never believed in things like horoscopes and fortune-telling. At most, they were mixed with some psychology. They weren't trustworthy at all.If Renee wanted to use those things to talk about their relationships and destinies, it would seem very childish. "Don't be so extreme. Those things are real and logical." Renee acted like an experienced salesperson and gradually eliminated Justin's prejudice. She said patiently, "If you believe those things, they can guide you and help you to see things through. If not, you can use them to kill time. Just try to get to know them. Isn't that nice?"Finally, Justin was convinced. He had some milk and asked her leisurely, "Fine. Tell me what kind of relationship we have based on those things." "I learned that our relationship is a declining friendship based on our birt
