Chapter 44

Author: Mizuki Sei
"This is my wedding ring, which symbolizes my marriage to my husband. Although it might not be the most priceless item here, it is still endowed with a special meaning. Now, I would like to donate it, and I hope it would garner a good price and help as many people who needed help as possible."

This move instantly stirred the crowd into a flurry. How could she so easily decide to donate her wedding ring?!

Some people praised her generosity and charitable nature and for not binding herself to sentimental attachment to objects. But others were beginning to suspect if the rumors about the rift in the marriage between Stefan and Renee were true after all.

Stefan, who was right in the center of the audience, exuded a chilling aura that warned people from approaching him. His dashing face betrayed no signs of emotions.

Meanwhile, Liam could not be more delighted. With a wicked smile, he uttered the following words as if they were cuts from a dagger aimed at Stefan's heart, "Tsk tsk tsk,

    Renee could have just left then and there. After all, in less than ten days, she would be officially divorced from this guy, and they would forever have nothing to do with each other anymore.Besides, if he really did die this evening, she would inherit a massive chunk of his fortune as his wife—she would be unimaginably wealthy then!But in the end, she realized that she could not be that cruel and that she could not just turn a blind eye to this, so she returned to the auction hall. What else could she do when that scumbag was the biological father to her two children? If her children found out in the future that she had just left their father to die without helping him, they would certainly hate her forever!The atmosphere in the auction hall had almost reached a fever pitch by the time she returned to her seat."Five million!""Six million!""Six and a half million!" Celebrities and public figures from all walks of life enthusiastically raised their bidding placards. The

    Stefan and Renee both went on stage. Under the dazzling light, they looked like a match made in heaven. The host discussed the issues between her and Stefan as the crowd cheered for them. Renee's sharp gaze swept through the crowd as she tried to find the problem. However, everyone seemed normal, and no one appeared suspicious. 'Did I mishear it? Or is that a prank?' she thought to herself. At this moment, she heard the host say, "Let us congratulate Mr. Hunt for successfully auctioning off the ring for fifteen million dollars, and we will have our presenter hand the ring to him." Stefan was gracefully presented with the display box containing the diamond ring by the tall and stunning presenter in a white gown. "Let's have Mr. Hunt put the diamond ring on his wife's finger again. We are all here gathered around to witness the consistent and beautiful love between Mr. and Mrs. Hunt!" The host had unexpectedly become a wedding host, as it seemed he was hosting Stefan and Re

    When Stefan woke up, he realized he was lying on the hospital bed. The nurse came in and was glad to see him awake. "Mr. Hunt, you're finally awake. You've been in a coma for an entire day." "An entire day?" 'Shit!' he cursed inwardly. His blood phobia was getting so serious that he kept fainting at critical times. The last thing he remembered before blacking out was Renee getting shot. At the thought of this, his heart tightened. He grabbed the nurse's arm and asked coldly, "How's Renee? Is she okay?" Stefan's sudden movement caught the nurse off guard. "You mean Mrs. Hunt? She only needed a slight patching up. She left after bringing you here yesterday," she said cautiously. "A slight patching up?" When he heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that her injuries weren't as serious as he had imagined them to be. "Yes. after she was done, she left with Mr. Osborne," the nurse added. "She left with Liam?!" When Stefan heard this, he instantly asked to c

    "Stefan, put me down. We're not that close with each other!" Renee said as she struggled to break free from the man.She was embarrassed that she couldn't beat him despite her skills and reputation."Stop moving. You're hurt." Stefan shot back with a poker face as he carried her to the bathroom.She was as light as a feather, which stirred a huge urge in him to protect her.Renee was a little speechless. Her arm was only slightly injured. It wasn't like she had broken her leg or waist that she couldn't care for herself. She became worried when she saw that he had not intended to leave after he had placed her inside the bathtub."Stefan, you're not really going to shower me, right? I'm warning you, don't you dare take advantage of me!"A sly smile appeared on the man's face after he had placed her inside the bathtub. His slender finger hooked underneath her chin, and he asked, "What if I want to? After all, the bathtub is huge. It has enough space for two people.""No!" Renee shouted wi

    "What happened?" Stefan called out as he hung up the phone and went straight to the bathroom door. Just as he was about to open the door, he heard Renee's panicked voice coming from inside, "I'm fine. Don't come in!" And a series of loud banging sounds followed afterward. It doesn't seem like she was fine. After moments of hesitation, he pushed the door and entered. "Ah! Who told you to come in? Get out!" Renee was standing up in the bathtub. She quickly wrapped a towel around her naked body when she saw that he had entered. Although her movements were quick, he still saw her body. He froze in place and swallowed harshly, feeling his lips turn dry. He hadn't known that she was so stunning! He wondered why it had taken him so long to realize that he had been living with a hidden treasure for the previous four years. After a while, he finally calmed down. Only then did he realize that the clothes on the rack had fallen, which meant Renee's clothes and towel had dropp

    It was already late at night when Stefan and Renee finished changing their clothes. She lay on the bed, losing all patience as she gazed at the handsome man sitting on the couch in blue pajamas. "I only have a slight injury on my arm. You don't have to stay here and look after me all the time. You should return to your house, and we should keep our distance like before." "You got hurt saving me, so I'm responsible for it," Stefan calmly replied as he folded the magazine he had been reading. He coldly gazed at her and asked with seriousness, "Do you need me to tuck you in bed?" "That's not necessary!" Renee said, immediately crossing her arms and turning to the other side of the bed. She reasoned that if he persisted in guarding her, she should leave him to his own devices since she was sleeping comfortably on the bed and not the one suffering on the sofa! The orange light from the table lamp illuminated the room. A calm silence filled the room as time passed, and the only s

    The following day, the sun shone brightly. Elijah immediately sent Stefan all the pieces of information he had on Renee. After reading it, Stefan was shocked, and he had a new perception of her. They had been married for four years and were about to get a divorce, and only now did he find out that his wife was the infamous genius that graduated from BC University. She skipped two grades in high school and entered BC University without needing to take the exam. She studied Electronic Communications and Technology, majoring in Electromagnetic Field and Electromagnetic Wave Direction. She became the lecturer's assistant in her second year, and whenever she was in class, it would be full of students. During her second year of postgraduate, she went to Asken as an exchange student and continued to have exceptional grades. However, everything changed when she was in her final year. The Everheart family faced insolvency and declared bankruptcy. Her parents committed suicide because

    Renee subconsciously pursed her lips but didn't answer him, thinking to herself, 'You're aware of what I misunderstood. Why are you pretending not to know?'Stefan's dark eyes focused on her, and he said, "I don't care what you misunderstood about me, but I don't want you overthinking things. I'm doing all this to thank you for saving me. Besides that, I have no other intentions." After hearing this, she laughed mockingly at herself. She knew she had read too much into his actions.He had never liked her in the past four years, so it was impossible that he had feelings for her now!"That's good." She relaxed instantly and joked, "After the divorce, we won't see each other anymore."Stefan merely pressed his lips together and didn't say a word. He was thinking of the same thing, but he didn't feel happy when he heard her say it.Renee rolled up her sleeves, pointed at her injury, and said, "See, my injury is healing. I can take care of myself. You can leave now."He looked at

    "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

    "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
