Chapter 69

Author: Mizuki Sei
Stefan's strong presence caused Elon to shrink back a little.

However, with so many cameras aiming at them, he did not think Stefan would dare do anything funny!

"What else could I want, my nephew-in-law?"

Elon cleared his throat and said loudly, "My niece has been your wife for many years. She has always been a responsible wife. Now that you want to dump her, all you're giving her is a stupid law firm? How is she supposed to live from now on? Considering how rich the Hunts are, surely you don't have to be so heartless?”

His words caused an uproar in the crowd. The reporters frantically pressed their shutters.

"My niece is shy and timid, so she begged me the whole night to help her fight for what she deserves...

"I'll keep it simple. Give us $7 million, and we promise to disappear from your life completely!"

Elon could hardly wait to extort Stefan.

"Elon Barnes, shut the hell up!" Renee said through clenched teeth.

His words had dragged her reputation through the mud. She wis

    Haze looked at Renee casually with his hands in his pockets and said pointedly, "What a coincidence. You're here too, Mrs. CEO's wife. A wonderful show is about to begin. Why don't you stay for the show, seeing that you're one of the main protagonists?”Renee was not stupid. She naturally heard the hidden meaning in Haze's words.It looked like his threat to expose her as Phoenix if she refused to work with him was not just an empty threat, but a real one!Before Stefan transferred the law firm's shares to her, her identity as Phoenix must remain a secret!"The famous Haze! I've long been an admirer of your skills. Could I perhaps have a quiet word with you?"Although it looked doomed, Renee was unwilling to give up. She decided attempt a desperate Hail Mary.You never know, Haze might take mercy on her plight and give her a chance."Of course."Haze's long, narrow eyes shined with a glint of cunningness as he said with a smile, "Since the CEO's wife personally requests it, who

    Renee took a deep breath and walked into Stefan's office.Comment by Felicia C: insert 2 hashtag before first paraStefan's slender body stood in front of the bright french window. His broad shoulders and long legs gave him a dashing appearance.However, the chilly air emanating from his entire body lowered the temperature in the office to a freezing point.It appeared the big iceberg knew everything now.However, Renee did not panic. She calmly took out the share transfer contract and said to his back as if nothing had happened, "Mr. Hunt, if you're free right now, please sign this. We should split up the assets cleanly now so that the divorce can proceed without a hitch.”Stefan turned around. The sun added a bit of warmth to his cold, handsome face, making him look even more charming."Why are you in such a hurry to get the divorce? Don't you think you should explain yourself first?""Explain myself?"Renee's expression was calm. She had nothing to lose anymore. “There's no

    "What papers?"Renee felt like a fish that could breathe again. She was finally able to think normally. Her bright eyes were focused."Didn't you want me to sign the share transfer contract? Give me the papers before I change my mind!"Stefan's words were cold and proud.He actually agreed?!Renee could not believe it. She quickly handed him the contract and a pen in a respectful manner."If you would, Mr. Hunt!"She did not even dare to breathe too loudly during the process lest the temperamental man went back on his word due to a perceived slight! Stefan signed the contract with a cold face and then said without any emotion, "You better not advertise the content of our divorce agreement to the public. If you want anything, just tell it to me straight. There's no need to play dirty."His words struck her like ice cones, cold and painful.Renee froze.She thought the reason he signed the share transfer contract so readily was because he did not believe any of Elon's nonsens

    The man's clothes were plain and he was wearing a face mask. He was patiently wiping the leaves of a plant on the desk, making sure each leaf was spotless clean.Hearing Renee's voice, he gently raised his eyes and looked over curiously. "The new boss of Hunts & Co., I presume? The poor woman about to be abandoned by Stefan Hunt?"Renee felt a little awkward. She cleared her throat softly and said, "The second part was unnecessary."The man put down the spray bottle and took off his mask. His middle-age face looked kind and gentle, exactly as the information said.From the information Liam sent her, Renee knew that the Hunts & Co.had three partners—two men and a woman—and this man, John Wayne, was one of them.Among the three partners, John was the oldest and the most experienced. He looked like he would be easy to get along with, but he was actually the most cunning one.John said, "I'm curious. We haven't met before and I'm dressed like this, so how did you recognize me?""It'

    Three days passed.The Sporadic Star Bar was a relatively famous bar in Beach City. It was an elegant and artistic-looking two-story establishment.Xavier and Christopher were currently sitting in the VIP area on the second floor. Not only did it have a great view, it also provided a certain level of privacy.The two already had a few drinks, but Stefan, who had agreed to meet them here, was still nowhere to be found."What's up with Stefan? This is the first time in four years us Golden Trio are meeting up with just the three of us. He wouldn't stand us up, would he?"Xavier was holding a glass of wine with a slightly anxious expression. He kept looking towards the entrance."I asked to see him today because I have something important to talk to him about. If I don't take care of this, my father will surely break my leg when I go home tonight!"Christopher, being the oldest in the Golden Trio, was as calm as ever. He said unhurriedly, "Bro, calm down. You know how Stef is. If h

    Stefan frowned slightly after a hint of surprise flashed across his cold face.What have Renee done? Why was Zack willing to pour drinks for her?Three years ago, when Hunt Enterprise acquired the Hunts & Co., Zack left a deep impression on Stefan due to his arrogance and lack of respect.However, because Zack's professional capabilities were so outstanding—he would easily help Hunt Enterprise solve all kinds of legal issues—Stefan simply let him be.All these years, Stefan had always left the Hunts & Co. alone. He did not care how much money they made as long as they could be useful in crucial moments.But those lawyers simply turned the law firm into a “retirement home”. Not only did the law firm not make money, it was losing money every year!Renee actually gave up $40 million dollars and a luxury house in exchange for this law firm. In Stefan's opinion, it was so not worth it.He was sure that there was no way Renee could deal with the difficult people in the law firm, consi

    The two men went downstairs. Because of their good looks, they attracted a lot of attention.Unfortunately, Renee's group was too immersed in their drinking game to notice.Therefore, the two young noblemen were... completely ignored!Xavier was used to being the center of attention everywhere he went and had never experienced such a cold reception before. Moreover, he was feeling mad on Stefan's behalf, so the words that came out of his mouth were very arrogant. "Look how excited they are over a stupid drinking game. So childish."Only then did the group notice them. The atmosphere that had been merry a second before rapidly dropped to a freezing point.Stefan's eyes met with Renee's. An invisible tug-of-war began.Although neither of them spoke, the others could clearly sense the fireworks that were going off between them. They could tell a silent battle was raging.The new boss versus the old boss. The lawyers were in a tough spot.They immediately made the decision to step

    Zack was determined to play a prank on the two snobbish rich kids, Stefan and Xavier.Therefore, when he distributed the number plates earlier, he deliberately assigned number 6 to Xavier.Think about it. Two young masters from the Great Eight of Beach City kissing each other for 30 seconds. What an exciting sight that would be. It would become a classic that would leave its mark in history."Who's number 6? Please stand up!"Zack looked at the group and asked even though he already knew the answer.Xavier had a short temper. He immediately stood up and pointed a finger at Zack. "Who do you think you are? How dare you embarrass my bro? Do you wanna die?”Zack's expression was calm. He completely disregarded the threat.He had been involved in the legal industry for many years and had seen people from all walks of life. Even people more powerful than Xavier Stuart had to show him respect."If you're willing to bet, you must be willing to pay your wager too. Since you two decided

    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
