"Yes, you're right…" Stefan was teary as he recalled the past with Renee, when they had just gotten married. At that time, Renee's family had just been slaughtered right before she married him, who was a total stranger. She had suffered through endless coldness. Even so, she did a good job as his wife. She was always considerate and gentle—the ideal wife.Of course, she wouldn't be able to make that kind of sacrifice if she hadn't been deeply in love with him. "I have wronged her. Our whole family has wronged her." Stefan sounded hoarse as he sobbed. Guilt overcame him. He covered his face in pain. "So, I deserve the pain I'm suffering through now!""Nonsense!" Nora exhausted herself to smack his arm furiously. She tried to advise him earnestly. "You always stress yourself out. You didn't do anything bad, so that's nonsense. You guys didn't marry each other willingly. Plus, you didn't love her. It was normal for you to ignore her.""Yes, I didn't do anything bad, but…" Stefan
Nora could feel that Stefan was not himself, but it did not seem like the company had run into a problem. It seemed it had something to do with his romance. Otherwise, he would only be calm and would not take it seriously if something did happen to the company. That was how much Nora knew Stefan.Still, Stefan looked worried and gloomy. He was not himself."Hello, Aunt Nora. You're resting and getting better. Don't worry about me. I can handle it." Stefan tried his best to act indifferent. Nora behaved like Stefan's mother and caring sister most of the time. If Stefan was sad about something, he would confide in Nora, including his problems with his romance. Nora would objectively give him some ideas and suggestions.However, she was seriously sick now. Even if Stefan wanted to confide in someone and needed some enlightenment, he could not bear to trouble Nora. Even so, she was very smart. She could tell that Stefan was sad and couldn't bear to watch him suffer alone. Sh
Having said that, Stefan gave Quinton a profound look and left. He went to the hospital that day to visit Nora, his aunt. Nora was undergoing treatment after Justin's two careless subordinates accidentally fired a gun and shot her.The doctor had issued a notice of Nora's critical situation several times, but Nora still held on and was still breathing. After that, a miracle happened last Tuesday. Surprisingly, Nora gained consciousness. It was a great joy for Stefan. During his early years, Stefan's parents were busy with Hunt Enterprise. Nora was the one taking care of him most of the time. In some aspects, Nora was his second mother. Many people had refused to bow down to Stefan after he took over the company. It was Nora who had always been his strongest support. He took his side without any hesitation and helped him eliminate a lot of obstacles. She was the greatest support of his career.But now, she was shot and hospitalized, and her condition was critical. Of course, t
Justin's reminder helped Quinton and Stefan calm down. "Okay, let's go downstairs. You're not young, but you came to the rooftop. Do you think this is some kind of movie?" Justin criticized.Both Quinton and Stefan were considered famous people, but they went to the rooftop to confront each other, which was ridiculous for Justin. They could do nothing, but they made such a scene. It was like a comedy. Finally, they left the rooftop and kept a tacit silence. They refused to mention the dramatic incident that had happened. After calming himself down, Stefan apologized to Renee. "I lost control of myself. You can keep your promise and stop talking to me. You don't have to forgive me, either."He had pondered over it for a long time, and knew that his conflict with Renee could not be mediated. The next argument might be more serious than the current one. He felt that he should maintain some distance from Renee to avoid another conflict or putting Renee in such a difficult situati
It was normal for Quinton to come up with such a wicked idea, given his character and style."You wouldn't, or you couldn't?" Stefan flexed his fingers and suppressed his desire to strangle Quinton again. "You might be disappointed. The romance between Renee and me is firm. You can't break us apart with that little trick of yours. If our relationship was weak, we would have long forgotten about each other. I would have long targeted you instead of waiting until now, when I still can't do anything!" "Haha! You're quite confident. Do you think your relationship with Renee is that strong?" Quinton burst into laughter while listening to Stefan's confident words. He laughed at Stefan's naivety. "You're not a child, but you act like one. Do you think you're unique? That people can't forget about you and let you go?"Quinton took a step forward and purposely challenged Stefan's patience. He patted Stefan's shoulders."At the critical moment just now, my sister chose me. She'll always c
At that critical moment, Renee arrived at the entrance of the rooftop after her wound was bandaged. Panting, she looked at that scene with disbelief."Stop!" After being stunned for a few seconds, she rushed to the edge of the rooftop without any hesitation and pulled Quinton to her rear. She pushed Stefan harshly. "What are you doing?! Do you want to push Quinton off the building? Didn't you promise not to fight him?" Speechless, Stefan did not expect Renee to come back all of a sudden. But he did not find anything wrong with his actions, since he was already driven mad. He felt righteous and bold.He looked at Renee firmly, and only spoke up after a long time. "If I need to pay with my life, I'll jump off the building after pushing him off," he said gloomily. "I don't think I've wronged him." "How dare you!" Naturally, Renee did not expect him to be this righteous and confident. She stopped pretending as her eyes turned teary. "What do you mean? Do you want to kill him?"
