Chapter 1755

Author: Mizuki Sei
Renee let go of Justin's arm in satisfaction. "That's more like it."

Justin rubbed his sore arm and complained, "You're still as violent as ever, Phoenix."

"Do you want more?"

Justin immediately became humble and pitiful again. "No, please stop. I'm just saying that despite how much time has passed, our relationship is still the same." Back then, Justin would surely get hurt whenever they met. His arms would almost be broken, or he would have to suffer a few punches. His feelings would be hurt too. However, despite everything… he quite liked that kind of feeling. He was probably a masochist.

"Well, I might not be as strong as before, but it's more than enough to deal with a boy like you," Renee said confidently.

Justin scowled at her. "Can you stop calling me that? I'm not a boy."

"You're not?"

"I'm most certainly not, thank you very much."

"But you're younger than me."

"Fine, I can't deny that." Justin seemed to enjoy their banter, and didn't argue anymore after that.

    After thinking about it for a long time, Renee decided to meet Timothy. She heard that he was ill and had wanted to visit him, but hadn't because of her messy situation. However, the information she had gotten from Justin might be related to Stefan, so she had to go. All she cared about at that moment was Stefan—she wanted to know where he was, and most importantly, if he was still alive."Justin, I'm sorry for troubling you. I mistook you for Stefan and made a scene… I'll compensate you for whatever I destroyed here, and I really hope the casino does well." Renee apologized to Justin with her hands together, then got up to leave."Where are you going?" Justin stood up and asked worriedly."I'm going to look for him!" Renee smiled sadly. "Honestly, I feel like a kid looking for her mother. I don't have a plan but I'll try to get information from whoever I can meet." She had already gone to Briar, Jovan, and Justin to find Stefan; Next on her list was Timothy. Eventually, she had to

    Timothy was lying on a lounge chair near the balcony, watching the rain outside the window. His bedroom was facing the garden, where a few Musa basjoo trees had been planted below his window. Those trees were almost as old as him, and they were tall and dense. Raindrops dripped from their branches and leaves, giving off a gloomy atmosphere. "Old Mr. Hunt, look who's here," Asher happily informed Timothy.Timothy did not turn around, and just said indifferently, "It must be Ren, right? The one I've been wanting to meet…""Grandpa..." Renee walked over and kneeled beside the chair, holding his arm gently. "How did you know it's me?""It's because I've been looking forward to seeing you every day!" Timothy looked at her and patted her head. "Silly girl, it's been such a long time. You should have come and met me sooner!""I-I..." "What's the matter? Do you hate me?""No, I always thought about you, but so many things happened lately and I… I was too ashamed to meet you." "Ah, y

    Renee could tell that she wouldn't get any answers from Timothy, and disappointment filled her. Timothy sighed when he saw Renee's crestfallen expression. "Ren, stop overthinking. There's always a way around things. Look at my family and the Baldwins—we've been fighting each other for so many years, but it's slowly been resolved. I believe that the thing between you and Stef isn't irresolvable; Just wait, and time will give you an answer."Renee smiled bitterly and asked Timothy, "Since you brought it up, Grandpa… Did you make peace with the Baldwin family?""I guess you can put it that way." Timothy looked ahead. "I already have one foot in the grave, and it made me realize that grudges are nothing compared to death. Austin and I used to be best friends, but we fell out with each other because of some silly misunderstandings. I'm going to die soon, so I don't want to keep on fighting him. If we make peace, it'll be beneficial for our descendants too.""Is that it?" Renee was doub

    Justin felt that though Stefan was arrogant, he was also cautious and insightful. As Stefan's enemy, he had to be on guard if Stefan was managing Hunt Enterprise, but now that Jovan was running it… it was too easy and wasn't fun anymore. He tilted his head and offered Jovan a lazy smirk. "If it wasn't for my grandpa telling us not to fight, your family would be done for.""Shut up!" Enraged, Jovan grabbed Justin's collar. "Are you testing my patience or my family's power? Do you think I wouldn't dare to do anything to you since you're in Hunt Manor?"Justin shrugged casually. "Go ahead and do what you want. If you beat me up to vent your anger now, your grandpa will just make you apologize to me later. How humiliating would that be, hmm?" "Apologize?" Jovan scoffed. "You must be dreaming!" He raised his hand to punch Justin. Renee had finished her chess game with Timothy, and was coming down the stairs when she saw Jovan and Justin. Her eyes widened and she shouted, "Jovan, stop!

    Renee's teasing remark made Jovan and Justin break out in a cold sweat."What? You want me to be his friend? I'd rather kill myself!" Jovan pretended to vomit. "I wouldn't go to that extent, but it's worse than killing myself if I have to befriend such a childish man," Justin scoffed in disgust.Renee found their argument amusing and shook her head. "Okay, it's getting late. I need to go home." Renee had gained no new information and was mentally exhausted. She wanted to go home and rest, leaving her worries aside for the moment."Are you going home? The weather is terrible. Why don't you spend the night here?" Naturally, Jovan didn't want Renee to leave. "This is also your home, and the maids keep your room clean and well-maintained under Grandpa's orders. If you spend the night here, he'll be very happy.""That's unnecessary. It's more comfortable staying at one's own home. What Phoenix needs the most is a relaxing rest at home..." Justin extended his arm and said to Renee char

    "I don't know, but I'm sure that I drive faster than you!" While talking, Jovan started the car and sped into the heavy rain."Do you have to argue about this too?" Justin smacked his forehead, speechless. "Fine, you're faster. You're always faster than me."Meanwhile, Renee had taken Justin's car and left on her own. At first, she felt that it was dangerous, but she gave in when she saw Jovan and Justin bickering endlessly. Besides, she had purposely driven in the opposite direction so they wouldn't be able to catch up to her. Now, she could get rid of them and have some peace.The situation on the road was bad since it was raining. Raindrops splattered on the windshield loudly, and though the wipers were on the highest speed, it was still insufficient. Besides, Renee had yet to get used to her new pair of eyes. She had used them too much in the morning, and they were aching. Her vision was blurry, and it felt like she was driving with her eyes closed. Luckily, since the weather wa

    "If you're Renee, you're the one I'm looking for. Come with me!" The man said coldly.Renee turned around and saw a large man with a ferocious scar on his face. He looked like a powerful gangster with influence, and she didn't know what he wanted with her. "Why should I listen to you? Do I look that obedient?" Renee held an umbrella and stood there stubbornly, looking like a young woman who was difficult to handle.The man got closer, fished out a flick knife, and held it out. "Will you be obedient if I use this?""A weapon? What a fierce person... Unfortunately, you bumped into someone like me, who's good at punishing fierce people!" After that, Renee tossed her umbrella aside and faced the man confidently. "I can go with you, but first, you need to tell me who you are, where you're taking me, and why you're doing this." "You'll know once we get there..." The man became impatient, and waved the sharp knife at Renee. "If you don't cooperate, I'm going to hurt you.""You're going

    When Renee was still a part of the underworld, she would sometimes get jobs kidnapping big shots or rescuing hostages, so she had studied ways to tie people up… which meant she also knew how to untie them."Okay, please excuse me for this then." The man carefully went over and tied Renee's hands up behind her. "Please come with us!""Do I have to go with you? Can't you do it here?" Renee became impatient. She had cooperated so she could lure his boss out, but he still hadn't appeared. "I can't help it. We have to finish the act to make it look real!" He scratched his head helplessly. If his boss hadn't offered him a high reward, and if his buddies didn't owe their boss, he wouldn't be doing such childish things."There are many ways to do it without troubling ourselves. For example..." While talking, Renee went forward and snatched away the man's knife though her hands were tied, then ordered him to put the knife to her neck. The gangster was dumbstruck. "What… What are you doin

    Justin smiled and described the children's experiences, acting like a stepfather. When he talked about the children, he made it sound like they were his biological children. Stefan didn't look so good. He felt that the glass of wine was getting bitter."Well, I'm sure kids will find everything new and exciting when they go to a new place. But they'll get bored with it when time passes. They'll love their real home better." Stefan had wanted to act relaxed and casual, but he could not stop himself from refuting when he heard Justin's provocative words. "Mm?" Leia sat beside Liam and leaned against his arm, and whispered, "What are they doing? This is weird. Are they going to fight?""It's just a competition between men. They won't get into a fight." Liam kept eating and watching the fun. He merely found it amusing. As expected, Renee was greatly admired. Although she remained silent, she would always be in the limelight. Liam was amused to see people like Stefan or Justin

    "How dare you!"Stefan's words instantly made Leia speechless. She had wanted to rebuke him, but he snatched the chance from her and struck her dumb.In short, he was an utter scumbag.After a moment, Leia finally managed to comment, "How shameless!" Justin had kept silent all the while. He looked at Stefan with a scrutinizing and mocking gaze. "Mr. Hunt, I admire your honesty and self-awareness. If that's the case, let's stop being reserved and have fun together!""Yes, let's have fun together. I'm shameless, too!" Liam joined in the effort to mock Stefan. He swayed his glass of wine and faked a smile. "I've known her a long time, so of course I know what shameless things Mr. Hunt has done. I think I'd better grab this chance to tell you all of them since everyone is here today."Standing at the door, Renee was worried that Liam might say more indecent things. She hurriedly stopped him. "Pipe down, Liam!" "Got it." Liam shrugged helplessly but obeyed her.Although he yea

    "Do you want to leave?" Stefan saw Renee. He was calm, indifferent, and distant. His behavior stung Renee. Renee could easily recall their lovey-dovey memories. They had both risked their lives for each other and vowed to be together forever. They had two children, too. Yet, they ended up as strangers.Although Renee was heartbroken, she became competitive. She smoothed her hair and said in a similarly cold manner, "I'm going to the washroom." "Okay." Stefan did not have anything to say. He nodded and walked past Renee before heading to the dining table. "Hmph! I didn't expect you to come so boldly," Quinton sneered.At the sight of Stefan, Quinton subconsciously clenched his fists, acting like he was about to fight Stefan. On the surface, he wouldn't act aggressively because he knew Renee would stop him. "It's not easy for the few great families to get together. It's good and meaningful for us. If I refused to come, it would make me seem heartless."Stefan kept his co

    Having said that, Renee lowered her head, about to leave. She didn't even have the time to bother about Adie and Abby, and told Quinton to take them home later. Her strange behavior filled Quinton with displeasure. He blocked Renee and said solemnly, "Are you afraid? Do you want to run away? People might think that you're guilty and have cheated on your husband!""No, I'm not!" Renee refuted him loudly, then explained seriously, "I'm busy. I need to handle something right away. Plus, I'm not guilty. I did nothing wrong. There's no reason for me to feel guilty." Quinton went straight to the point. "What are you afraid of since you know you're not guilty? Why do you want to run away? He should be afraid instead!""I told you. I'm not afraid of him. I'm just…" "What?" Quinton crossed his arms and looked at Renee coldly. He wanted to get to the bottom of it.Renee came up with a ridiculous yet normal excuse. "I… I recalled that the dessert shop that I want to head to is about to

    Jovan called Stefan to sound the latter out. Anyway, it would be convenient for Stefan to rush over since they were both at the same spot. "I'll be right there," Stefan said. Then, he hung up.For a moment, silence washed over everyone, as if something terrible was about to happen.After taking in the new information, Leia said indignantly, "What's going on? Why does he want to come? Isn't he too shameless? How dare he come?" Although everything wasn't discussed openly, everyone knew why Stefan and Renee broke up all of a sudden, despite how lovey-dovey they were. The reason was that Stefan had cheated on Renee.Even if the adultery was faked, it was still the cause of their breakup. If Stefan were shameful or guilty, he wouldn't have agreed to come. He was going to face Renee there with their friends and family around. Certainly, it was embarrassing. "Hmph! Why not? He impersonated me, seized my business, and snatched away my woman. Plus, he led a steady life, got married

    Jovan's words made the atmosphere quiet and bizarre. "Are you out of your mind, Jovan? It's already very annoying to have someone like you here. Do you have to get another annoying guy?" Leia frowned, crossing her arms. She kept scolding him.Initially, the atmosphere was considered harmonious. It was still considered fine even if there was an annoying person like Jovan. Unexpectedly, he wanted to call another, more terrible person to come here. Things would certainly go wrong. "Ms. Osborne, you're famous for talking harshly, too. You're just like me. I love it." However, Jovan was not mad at all. He grinned while waiting for Stefan to answer the call. Generally, Stefan would not answer Jovan's call. Surprisingly, he picked it up that time."What's the matter?" Jovan purposely put it on speaker mode. Stefan sounded aloof and emotionless.Jovan sounded wicked as he calmly asked Stefan, "Do you want to join a gathering, Stefan?""I'm going to hang up if you don't say anythi

    In the past, Jovan had always regarded Stefan as a coward. Stefan couldn't forget about Renee, but he kept pushing Renee to another man. It seemed like Justin was more responsible, considerate, and gentle. Of course, Renee would lead a very happy, steady, and comfortable life with such a man. At the very least, Jovan felt that he could not be that meticulous and considerate. He would only drive Renee mad just to get her attention. "Hmph! Are you trying to humiliate me or yourself?" Justin didn't find that a compliment. Instead, it sounded like smockery. Jovan made it sound like Justin was a nice guy, but would not be picked by Renee. Usually, people like that had to suffer and would not end up well."I'm praising you." Jovan was helpless because of his reputation as the villain. Although he had said a lot of annoying things, he did want to compliment Justin. His love was probably as deep as Justin's, but his and Stefan's ways of loving Renee were much inferior to Justin's.

    "That's unnecessary." Justin stood in front of Renee, his face cold. He said firmly, "She's unwell and can't have wine." "Is she unwell? I didn't see that." Jovan sized Renee up before he sized Justin up. Then, he sneered, "And who are you to her? You can't stop her from having wine.""It's none of your business who I am to her. I said she can't have wine." Justin always kept peace with others, but at that moment, he was dominant. He didn't always want to control Renee, but she had drunk a lot of wine that day. It might have hurt her belly. Hence, he felt it better for her to abstain from wine lately. However, Jovan was unaware of that affair. He simply found Justin purposely showing his ownership over Renee, which disgusted him."Waiter, get her a glass of milk. She only wants that," Justin instructed a waiter, showing his consideration for Renee. "It's okay. I can have a little wine. Plus, I'm rather good at drinking. It's not easy for everyone to get together tonight. I do

    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
