Chapter 296

Author: Mizuki Sei
"Cecilia didn't confess anything..." Christopher continued, "I just think, based on what I know about you, that you wouldn't be the kind of person to do that kind of thing. One, you have no motive, and two, it's not worth it for you."

Renee snorted coldly. "Yeah. I have no motive, and it's not worth it for me. You can see such obvious things, but Stefan Hunt can't.”

"Stef's a bit naive. He doesn't truly understand the complexity of the human heart."

"Yes, just like an idiot."

The two could not help but smile at that. A thousand words were exchanged in those smiles.

Xavier was lying on the hospital bed with one leg hanging in plaster, unable to move. He was in a terrible state and was extremely agitated.

When he saw Christopher and Renee walk into his ward, he called out at them like a drowning man clutching at a straw, "Thank god you two are here. Hurry up and get me out of here. This place is like a prison. I can't stay here for a minute longer."

Christopher frowned and said se

    "But I want to..." Xavier hesitated while looking at Renee, looking very pitiful."You want to play video games, right? You can't!"Renee's attitude was firm, like a disciplinary teacher."Hmph, whatever!"His hopes crushed, Xavier angrily covered his head with the blanket and went to sleep.The way he was fierce but scared at the same time was kinda cute.When he heard that they were leaving, he quickly pulled down the blanket and asked, "Renee, you said you're going to take care of me. Is that true?""Of course." Renee did not hesitate. “You saved my life. Isn't it natural for me to take care of you?"But let me make this clear. I'm not a very patient woman. If you keep being difficult and refuse to cooperate like you did earlier, I can't promise I won't beat you up!”"There's no need to worry. As long as you're the one taking care of me, I'll definitely cooperate."Xavier went back to sleep.Christopher watched all this with a somewhat complicated expression."Mr. Jacobs

    Christopher and Xavier immediately stopped talking, both looking guilty.“Bro, why didn't you knock before you came in? That's really rude!"Stefan's handsome face was expressionless, like an iceberg. He walked up to Xavier, knocked on the hung up plastered foot, and asked, "Does it still hurt?"Xavier's face immediately crumpled as he cried out in pain, "Ouch, ouch, ouch! Bro, are you trying to kill me? I sacrificed my life to save your ex-wife. Is this how you repay me?""You seem to be in high spirits. Looks like you're completely fine. In that case, stop telling everybody that you saved her.”Stefan's voice was cold, as if he did not want to accept the fact that Xavier had saved Renee's life.After all, the status of life savior carried a lot of weight. In ancient times, the rescued victim may even repay the savior with personal favors. Stefan felt very unhappy thinking about it."That's right!" Christopher chimed in, "This brat even wants her to take care of his everyday ne

    Xavier gulped hard and quickly said, "There are professional employees in the hospital that can care for me. You guys are busy. You really don't have to do this.""I'm serious. You saved her, so I must do something for you to repay you. You're not allowed to refuse!" Stefan's attitude was firm. He urged, "Open your mouth and drink the soup!"Xavier had no choice but to give in.Before he had finished the first spoonful, Stefan was already feeding him another. In the end, Xavier was so full that he felt like his stomach was gonna burst.Oh god, what sin had he committed to deserve this? He saved someone's life and even broke his leg doing so, but he now had to be a tool in those two's argument. He felt like the most miserable man in the world!When Renee saw that he had finished the soup, she immediately brought out an apple, peeled it with a knife, and handed it to him. "Having some fruit after dinner is good for digestion."Stefan urged again, "Eat the fruit."Xavier was speech

    After Renee left the hospital, she was still furious.“He's so annoying! What is wrong with him? He's so worried that I would ruin his precious friend's life. He's totally looking down on me!”She took a taxi back to the Hunt Villa.Margaret was already there. She was rubbing her hands anxiously.When she finally saw Renee, she immediately rushed over. "Ms. Ren, what's going on? How did Everheart Manor burn down while I was out doing grocery? Why did you ask me to wait for you at the Hunt Villa?”The tears she had been holding back came pouring out when Renee saw Margaret.Like a child, she threw herself into Margaret's arms and cried, "Margaret, what took you so long? Our house is gone! Our home is gone!""Don't cry, Ms. Ren. Don't cry!" Margaret gently stroked Renee's back and comforted her, "Don't be sad. Our home will never be gone. Home is where you and I are. So what if the house burned down? We can just rebuild it. Don't cry!""It's all gone..." Renee bawled her eyes out

    Renee’s voice was flat, and her attitude was far from polite. She looked like she was ready for a fight.She was not the old Renee anymore. She did not have to be considerate of Francine's feelings now. If Francine dared to make a scene, she would definitely retaliate!However, to Renee's astonishment, Francine actually smiled at her warmly."Can't I just come to see how my daughter-in-law is doing? I don't really need a specific reason to come here.”"Huh?"Renee's eyes widened, and her jaw dropped.Did Francine hit her head or something? She had always just called Renee the harbinger of tragedy and she had never been kind to her, yet today...Margaret said happily, "Ms. Ren, Madam Francine is so kind. She even brought you a gift. Do you want to open it and have a look?""Uhh, I..."Before Renee could respond, Margaret had already opened the beautifully packed present."Wow, it's a sapphire necklace. It's so beautiful! It must be really expensive!"Margaret was just like a

    Francine felt that, since she had humbled herself considerably to make this suggestion, Renee would surely be grateful and agree to it.After all, not long ago, she would do anything just to remain in the Hunt family...Renee did not respond. She merely laughed so hard that she had tears in her eyes.She never knew that the high and mighty Francine Milford had so much talent as a comedian. Renee simply could not stop laughing!Francine was a bit unhappy. She finally could not keep up the pretense anymore. Her tone was impolite as she asked, "Why are you laughing? Give me an answer! Let me tell you, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss it, it's gone. Don't be ungrateful!"Renee fought back the laughter. Her curved eyes gradually turned cold. She replied equally impolitely, “Madam Francine, I thought I'd made it clear to you. I never thought of going back after I dumped your son. Even if your son kneels and begs me, the possibility is still zero. And I sure as hell

    Renee could never have imagined that, one day, her ex-mother-in-law and her nanny would be on the same side, scheming to make her get back together with her scumbag ex-husband.Renee could not stand it anymore. She went to the kitchen and brought out a lemon pie to relieve her craving.As soon as the pie was placed on the table, the fragrance spread. Francine could smell it too."That smells good! Did you make that?"Francine could not help being attracted to the smell.She went to the dining room and was surprised to see the lemon pie on the dining table."Do you want a piece?"Renee had already cut a piece for herself and was ready to dig in.She had been craving sour food lately due to her pregnancy. She could not wait to start eating.Francine looked apprehensive, but she took a piece anyway.After taking a bite, her eyes immediately tripled in size."Did... did you really make this? It's so good!"She no longer cared that she was a lady of a rich family. She could hard

    "Your daughter-in-law?"A playful expression crept onto Haze's handsome face.So the well-dressed woman in front of him was Francine Milford, Renee's former mother-in-law."As far as I know, Ms. Everheart is currently single. It's a bit inappropriate for you to claim to be her mother-in-law like this.""What do you know?"Francine raised her chin high and said, "If she's my daughter-in-law for a day, she's my daughter-in-law for a lifetime. Until the day she remarries, no one can replace my position as the “mother-in-law”."Haze put his hands in his pockets and chuckled. “In that case, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. I'm actually here to take Ms. Everheart to meet my parents. If everything goes well, she'll have a new mother-in-law soon."Francine already had an impending sense of crisis before this, but after hearing what Haze said, the sense of crisis became even stronger. She immediately interrogated him, "Who are you? Who are your parents? What's your relationship with Re

    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
