Chapter 244

Author: Mizuki Sei
Having paced around the dessert section for quite some time, Renee began to feel her stomach rumble. She hadn't eaten anything yet.

At the time, she was scarfing down a piece of mousse cake, as if she intended to join an eating competition. There was even still some cream stuck to the corner of her mouth, which made her look somewhat adorable.

When someone called out to her out of nowhere, she lifted her head, and her eyes met Stefan's gaze that loomed over her.

She found her current state rather embarrassing, so she quickly tidied herself up, putting on an elegant act. "They forced me to take this cake. I didn't really want to eat that much…"

Christopher smiled, seemingly fond of this side of her. "Looks like our employees are pretty responsible… Don't worry, though—we've hired the best bakers, the best of the best, to make these desserts. They made sure to choose the ingredients well so it wouldn't be too fattening either!"

Stefan's hands were snug in his pockets. He stared at R

    "I don't want to! Let me go! Let me go now!"Joanne had been silent, but at that time, it seemed like her inner demon was released. She was very agitated as she kept screaming and struggling in Quinton's arms.Such a scene attracted a lot of students. Many of them took out their phones to record it. "Quinton, stop!" Renee rushed over to stop Quinton and said nervously, "Can't you see how frightened Joanne is? Stop forcing her!"She forcefully snatched Joanne from Quinton.Seeing Renee, Joanne seemed to have found her savior. She firmly hugged Renee and refused to let go. "There, there! You're fine now. No one can harm you. We'll protect you here." Renee gently patted Joanne's back to pacify the latter as if the latter were a child. "Let go of her!"Quinton frowned and said to Renee seriously, "You don't understand. People can only grow after defeating their most fearful thing. This woman had been bullying Joanne since high school, traumatizing her. Her thinking was changed.

    Elijah scratched his head. He still didn't understand why they went to this deserted, remote high school in the fishing village.Renee flexed her fingers, her tone melancholic. "Joanne was bullied here. I think Quinton wants to make the bully have a taste of her medicine. It's like what was said in the movie. We can only regain our dignity by returning to our native land.""Oh, I see!" Elijah was enlightened. He looked at Stefan and Renee, thinking that they were a great couple who shared the same thought. Only compatible people would understand each other's hidden meanings with a little hint. The three of them successfully entered the school without many obstacles.It was noon, almost the time for the lessons to end. The school felt hot as the students lazily listened to the teachers."It's a small school. It doesn't cover a large area." Renee anxiously walked around the school but failed to find Quinton and the others. She was downcast. "Why can't I find him? Did we read

    "Where do you think Quinton will take them to?" Renee didn't think she was stupid, but she felt she was right now. She was helpless. At this time, she subconsciously wanted to rely on Stefan. She felt that she could resolve any difficulty or get an answer to all questions as long as he was around.After some contemplation, Stefan raised a profound question. "Have you ever watched a movie called Malena?" Flabbergasted, Renee and Elijah looked at each other in dismay. They had no idea what Stefan wanted to express since he had made it sound quite profound and mysterious. Renee clenched her fists and held back to urge to scold him. She gnashed her teeth and asked, "Do you think it's time to talk about a movie now?" Things had gotten urgent, but he had the leisure to talk about a movie. It was hard not to wonder if he was trying to stall for time and wanted things to get worse for Quinton.Stefan appeared calm and kept describing the movie. "There's a line in the movie. We can on

    "I don't know. Quinton doesn't think like normal people." Renee knew Quinton was unstable, so she kept the incident of Joanne being bullied a secret from Quinton for fear that he might lose control and do something irreversible.Unexpectedly, she failed to keep Stefan from blabbing about it to Quinton. Standing behind them, Elijah made a guess. "Could he have brought them home?" "It's possible." Renee frowned and fished her phone out to call Margaret. Margaret sounded anxious, too. "Ms. Ren, what happened to you? Why aren't you at home?""There's no one at home?" Renee asked. "You, Mr. Everheart, and Ms. Garcia aren't at home. What happened?" Although Margaret was a servant, she was considered an elder at home. She regarded Renee and Quinton as her children.She had made breakfast early for them, but none of them came. Even Joanne was gone.The two children kept asking her where Renee and Quinton were. They were gone from the night before. Margaret had no idea how to ex

    Renee, furious, interrogated the nurse. "How could you ask me? Shouldn't the hospital keep close watch over the patient? Why didn't anyone notice that she's gone?""I'm sorry. We were careless." The nurse felt that the hospital was being careless. "We thought the patient was resting. You guys took turns taking care of her. So, we didn't observe her well. After all, she was emotional and disliked people entering or exiting her ward." "That's enough. It's useless to talk about this now. Hurry up and get the surveillance video. Let's find out where she went." Renee waved her hand, not wanting to make things difficult for the nurse. She just wanted to find Joanne's location quickly. The nurse was right. Joanne was emotional. Anyone or any word could drive her mad. It was normal for the nurse to decrease the frequency of checking on Joanne after ensuring that her family was looking after her.Unexpectedly, a dispirited and dazed person would suddenly run away. After a while, Renee

    "I see…" Renee nodded in enlightenment. She was not at all surprised because it was what Quinton would do.When she looked at his badly bruised face again, she no longer found Stefan miserable.After all, Quinton regarded Stefan as a delicate and weak pretty boy. To him, Stefan could not fight at all."If that's the case, Quinton must have brought that woman somewhere else. We have to find him." Renee frowned, anxious. She was eager to locate Quinton. From how Quinton handled things, Renee couldn't imagine how that woman would end up."Why don't we check out Joanne's ward first? Is it possible that Quinton had brought that woman here to apologize to Joanne?" Stefan made a rational analysis. It probably wouldn't mean anything if Quinton killed that woman. He would have a lot of methods to get that woman killed legally.Since he had not killed her, he must have other methods. It must be something much crueler than mere murder. After some contemplation, it seemed reasonable t
