It was not the first time Adie had wanted to return to Sun Island. He had seriously considered the pros and cons of living there, and felt like it wouldn't be too difficult at all. "I can buy the things I want at the market, and if I really miss being around people, I'll come back on a plane. But I don't really like crowds." Although he could get along with people, he preferred being alone. It took so much effort to socialize, and it wasn't even fun at all. He preferred being in a quiet environment doing whatever he wanted to do, which was why he was best friends with Tiffany."Do you want to go back there?" Renee asked hesitantly. Since Adie had considered a lot of things, it was clear that this was not a spur-of-the-moment decision. "It's possible for you to go back there."Adie's eyes lit up. "Really? Are you willing to let me go back to Sun Island?" Adie didn't expect to get Renee's approval at all—in fact, he had been prepared to get beaten up by her."Yeah!" Renee nodded casua

Sadness overwhelmed Renee. Quinton was a dignified and powerful man who hated expressing his emotions. He had been separated from his real family from a young age, and was forced to live in an abusive and oppressive family after that. He had never experienced family warmth, not to mention the charms of love. After he started living with them, he became more optimistic and calm. He had just begun facing his feelings and connecting with other people, but now, they would leave him alone again… The thought of it broke Renee's heart."Nothing's been decided yet. Kids change their minds all the time, so we might not go at all," Renee said casually, trying to lighten the atmosphere."But Adie isn't like that. I'm sure he's thought it through. You don't have to console me, I'm just..." After a pause, Quinton forced a gentle smile onto his face. "I just want to prepare myself. After all, you and the kids are the family I never knew I had. I've gotten used to being around you." Quinton was inf

"You can't think like that." Quinton rested his hands on Renee's shoulders, and said dotingly, "Just let me handle things like this. You have to lead a happy life with Adie and Abby. I'll earn money, get revenge, and revive our family.""I can't let you do everything, that would be selfish. We should do this together!" Renee said agitatedly, her eyes watery. She was too impulsive. She had only thought about her happiness and had forgotten about her responsibilities. To live a good life, she needed to take revenge and rebuild her family."I'm the one at fault here. I brought this up just when you made up your mind to leave, and it feels like I'm guilt-tripping you. Listen to me—just go live on the island with the kids and stay away from all of these conflicts. The further you are from this place, the less affected you'll be by that heartless man!" Quinton regretted bringing up their family honor. He was reluctant to part with her, but he felt like he had broken Renee's wings by forcin

Quinton jerked back, his eyes wide in indignation. "You're being rude. How could you make fun of me like this? Why should I get a girlfriend?""Calm down, Quinton. We're of the same age, but I've got two kids now. Isn't it normal for you to have a girlfriend by now? It's simple biology," Renee said cheekily, trying to persuade him. If Quinton found a lover, he wouldn't be so lonely, and she would feel reassured even if she and the kids decided to move back to Sun Island one day. "Nonsense! I refuse to get married or have children. I have no interest in women," Quinton scoffed. He had never considered such a thing over the years, and the only woman he had ever loved was Joanne. "You're not interested in women?" Renee raised her brows and thought about it, then nodded wisely. "So, you like men."Quinton stared at his sister, speechless. When had he said that? His sister might be the only person alive brave enough to insinuate that the infamous Night Demon liked men. "It's okay—yo

Renee wasn't angry or surprised—she had expected that her friend might not come. After half an hour, almost all the customers in the dessert shop had left except for her. To anybody else, it looked like she was there for the free air-conditioning."Madam, you've been at the shop for more than two hours. Do you need any help?" A waiter came over and asked kindly."I'm waiting for someone." Renee looked up awkwardly and added, "Give me a taro tiramisu.""Umm... Okay." The waiter nodded hesitantly and left.Renee raised her brows, looking around. They couldn't kick her out as long as she kept ordering food. Renee took out her phone and texted her friend. "Aren't you coming? The waiter said I've been here for too long… But it's alright—I'm a shameless person. I'll wait for you." She sent the message, but didn't get a reply. Night was nearing, and the waiter kept glancing at Renee expectantly.Finally, the windchime at the door rang as the door opened, and someone walked in."Welc

Joanne stared at Renee contemplatively. "Just tell me what you want since you were so determined to meet me." It was not the first time Renee had asked Joanne out for coffee, and Joanne usually ignored all her texts. She knew Renee hadn't expected her to show up.Renee sighed dramatically. "We escaped death together, but you still don't trust me. I just want to talk to you, so there's no need to be so suspicious!" Renee smiled at Joanne warmly, speaking like she was an old friend."Really?" Joanne relaxed slightly. She picked up the glass of lemon water in front of her and sipped it."Why should I lie?" Renee added sincerely, "You might not consider me a friend, but I see you as one. I've always wanted to talk to you over coffee." Joanne pursed her lips, then lowered her head and stirred her drink absent-mindedly. "How have you been lately? I heard that... you got into trouble. You almost died, didn't you?""That's right." Renee nodded. "Honestly, my days have been full of ups an

Renee munched on a soft cake as she casually asked Joanne.The smile on Joanne's face froze, and her gaze turned icy. "Why are you asking?" "I'm just asking; I don't have any hidden agenda, I promise." Renee put two fingers together and said seriously. "I swear I'm just concerned about you as a friend. If I lie, let me be struck by lightning.""There you go again!" Joanne immediately frowned. "Stop saying such unlucky things!""What else can I do? I have to prove my innocence so you won't be so guarded around me." Renee shrugged and pouted."Fine, but just keep it to yourself." Joanne took a deep breath and confessed, "I've been working as a language teacher at an elementary school. Mr. Hunt helped me get the job. He even bought a three-bedroom house for me near the school. I spend the day with my students, and go home to watch dramas or scroll through my phone at night. It's calm and peaceful... It's the happiest I've been in years." Joanne felt like she had been reborn. She did

The air seemed to crackle with tension. Joanne said nothing as she took a tissue to wipe her lips, then stood up to leave with her bag."Hey, Joanne! What are you doing..." Renee immediately gripped Joanne's wrist and smiled charmingly. "I was just messing with you, you don't have to answer if you don't want to. Why are you getting upset?""Why did you bring it up if you know I don't like to talk about it? It's like you want me to leave!" Joanne snapped, her previous warmth instantly gone. "It's a special treatment!" Renee pursed her lips, sounding serious.Joanne frowned. "What's that?" "Immunotherapy!" Renee cleared her throat and elaborated, "You know, people couldn't cure fever in the past. The only resolution was to keep getting fever until their bodies built antibodies to fight off bacteria. After a while, less people fell sick, and finally, there was no disease in that area.""What kind of crap is that? Does it have anything to do... with you mentioning that person?" Joa

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

"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
