Chapter 1866

Author: Mizuki Sei
Meanwhile, Abby had found a pretty conch on the beach just now, and wanted to show it to Adie, but turned around to find him missing. Worry filled her as she called out for Adie.

At that moment, Stefan and Renee were sulkily walking back to the campsite, carrying firewood. Coincidentally, they bumped into Abby, who was anxiously looking for Adie.

"What's wrong, Abby?" Renee tossed the firewood aside and hurried over to Abby. "Why are you here alone? Where's Adie?" Adie and Abby were always together, so Renee knew that something was wrong.

"Mommy, Adie is missing..." Abby's face was pale in fear. She hugged Renee and wailed, "I saw Adie sharing an apple with Tiffany just now, so I didn't disturb them. I came to the beach to look for conches, but when I went back… they were gone. I couldn't find them. Adie will be alright, won't he?"

"Don't worry, Abby. Adie is clever and resourceful, so I'm sure he's fine. Maybe he's just playing somewhere with Tiffany!" Renee said reassuringly, t

    "How could I laugh at you? I'll only feel sorry for you." Renee held Joanne's hands and silently encouraged the latter to relax. "Of course, you can keep those unhappy things buried in your heart if you don't want to tell me.""I…"After a brief hesitation, Joanne decided to be brave. "I trust you and rely on you. So, I want to tell you. I hope there are no secrets between us." Joanne held Renee's fingers firmly.She was vigilant toward others and would not easily befriend people. She had no friends from when she was young, but she naturally let down her guard in front of Renee. Joanne wanted to be close to Renee. She wanted to be Renee's best friend, someone who was more important to her than her lover.It was because she found some kind of reassuring power in Renee. It helped her relax. Plus, she did not have to worry about being abandoned. "Sure, tell me. You have my full attention." Renee adjusted her posture and looked at Joanne seriously when she learned that Joanne wan

    Monday was particularly stressful and gloomy, as if it were full of resentment from the working class.But Joanne was delighted. She wore her school uniform and happily rode in the car to go to school with Renee. She never expected that Renee had meant it when the latter promised to go to school with her. "Ms. Everheart, thank you so much! Not only did you give me a chance to go back to school, but you also gave me the chance to experience going to school with my bestie."Joanne kept her head hung in embarrassment. "Let me be frank with you," she whispered. "When I was in school, my classmates resisted me because of my family. I was always alone and never had any close friends." It was something that filled her with regret.Other young people were reckless and happy, but she was gloomy and miserable. When she sometimes dreamed of it at night, she would tremble all over. Besides, it was not as simple as having no friends or being resisted by her classmates. She had also been se

    "There's luck on your face! Hahaha!" Renee thought she was being funny."Your cheeks are getting chubby lately. You aren't as slim and weak now. I knew he's good at taking care of people. He did what he promised. He helped you gain weight," she explained. Previously, Joanne was weak and malnourished. Hence, they decided to keep Joanne there to live with them. At that time, Quinton quietly decided to help Joanne get healthy. He couldn't bear to see her that weak. He would study delicious food whenever he was free. Besides, he was experienced in that. After some time, he became no different from an expert chef."Stop teasing me, Ms. Everheart," Joanne said shyly, keeping her head low. She found herself in a difficult position. Initially, she refused to stay in Everheart Manor or have anything to do with Quinton. However, both Renee and Quinton were very enthusiastic. Joanne stayed because she yearned for such warmth. Still, her decision to stay seemed to have carried another

    Quinton stopped walking and looked at Joanne quietly. It was the first time Joanne had spoken to him after such a long time. Hence, he was being extra careful. He was worried he might scare her and drive her away when he spoke. "Let's dine together," Joanne whispered. She quickly sat at the dining table, buried her head, and started eating."Huh?" For a moment, Quinton had no idea how to react. Anxiety gripped him until he became uneasy. He was used to her fear and resistance toward him. It was torturous for him to see her suddenly act friendly with him."Hey, she asked you to dine together. You were busy the whole morning. Let's dine together!" Renee suppressed her laughter. She supported their romance.Besides, Quinton's cooking skills were admirable. He made such a special lunch. There were appetizing prawns on the table, along with softly baked buns and fried churros. All of the food was appetizing at first glance. "Quinton, I'm sure you'd make a great celebrity chef if

    Renee knew Joanne was too shy to accept others' charity. Hence, she purposely made things clear to ease Joanne's mind. "Thank you, Ren. You and Stefan are great guys. I can't survive without you guys." Joanne became teary as she sincerely thanked Renee.When her life was engulfed in darkness, Stefan rescued her from danger and helped her get away from the pain temporarily. Then, Renee guided her and motivated her to live. Yet, such great people had separated. As an outsider, Joanne found it a pity. "You're exaggerating. We're nice to you because you deserve it. Just stay here and go to school with ease of mind. You don't have to take Quinton seriously. You have to believe that he's reborn just like you. He's no longer the crazy guy who went mad when he fell out with others. You don't have to be afraid of him." Renee hoped that Joanne could relax for real, and the cause was Quinton."I know." Joanne bit her lips and whispered, "When you were away at North City, he and I got al

    Joanne regarded Renee as a friend with whom she could trust. She told Renee all the funny things at school."Do you like your life now?" Renee asked sincerely when she noticed Joanne's happy look. "I guess." Joanne stopped talking and chuckled. "I didn't know the reason why I was alive. I always recalled those unhappy experiences. But after I started going to school, I seemed to have been reborn from my decaying body.""You led a very difficult life before. I'm glad to see you've worked things out now."After such a melancholic comment, Renee stretched her body. An idea dawned on her. "I'm free lately. When you go to school on Monday, I'll go and listen to the lesson with you. I can look around for Adie and Abby beforehand and see what they're testing in high school now.""Really? Do you want to go to school with me?" Joanne's eyes lit up as anticipation overcame her. "That's great! I was too lonely to go to school alone. Although those students like me and accept me, there's a

    Renee had no idea how things would turn out for her and Stefan in the future. Based on their talk yesterday, however, it seemed like Stefan could spend more time with the children. Elated, Abby jumped on Renee's bed. "Yeah, that's great! I want him to tell me a story every night from now on!"Renee was gratified and delighted to see Abby happy. Suddenly, she heard someone knocking on the door. She frowned and wondered who was that polite at her house."Who is it?" Renee asked in the direction of the door."It's me!" The voice at the door was careful and timid. "Joanne!""Oh, Joanne. Come in. I wanted to see you!"When Renee was back at home, she wanted to chat with Joanne and ask about the latter's recent life, as well as the things between Joanne and Quinton.Joanne opened the door and walked into the room. To Renee's surprise, Joanne was wearing the student uniform of a high school in the city. Her blue and white navy shirt was coupled with a pleated skirt. She looked just

    Awkwardness and solemnity engulfed Renee and Stefan. After a brief pause, Renee shrugged casually. "Let's stop talking about that. It's meaningless. I think what we have now is pretty good. You can be with the kids, and I won't hate you. I hope you can spend more time with the kids from now on. After all, you're their biological father. They still care about you very much.""Of course. I miss them a lot, though I rarely have the time to be with them. I also miss…" Stefan looked at Renee, but failed to confess that he had missed her."Mm?" Renee looked at Stefan; she hoped he could bring himself to say that, but she did not get such a response. In the end, she stopped fussing about it and just waved at him. "I'm going to bed. If you want to stay the night, the guest room is on the third floor.""Thank you." Anxiety gripped Stefan. He was heartbroken to see her hurt, but he could not say anything else. He merely whispered, "I can't spend the night here."Renee stopped after

    "The ending isn't that miserable. Abby made the right guess. Rapunzel finally lifted the curse and lived happily ever after with the man in the castle. Can't you help Abby think positively? Why did you make it sound so wicked? Aren't you afraid of traumatizing her?" Renee said. "She's not as weak as you think. The world you've created for them was too wonderful. When they get in touch with the real world, they wouldn't be able to adapt to it. What I'm doing now is to help them get used to it in advance and mentally prepare them."Stefan did not find anything wrong with this method. He frowned and sounded contemptuous. "Don't you think those ancient La Nuit's fairytales unethical?""For example?""For example, the mermaid stopped being a mermaid for a disloyal man. Then, she watched the man marry another woman. In the end, she turned into bubbles. Was it worth it?" At that point, Stefan sounded indignant as if he were the father of the mermaid. "And?""Snow White was dumb, t
