Lahat ng Kabanata ng Divorced, Dazzling, and Desired: Kabanata 341 - Kabanata 350

Renee's flight left at eight at night from Harborview Airport, and she packed a small suitcase before heading over.Due to a delay at work, she was sweating all over as she had to hurry, arriving on the hour.Fortunately, the journey had been smooth, and she managed to reach the terminal just before it closed.As she sat down on her first-class seat and was busy wiping her sweat, as well as fixing her makeup, someone suddenly handed her a bottle of water. "Would you like a drink?""Thank you," Renee replied, thinking it was an air steward, until she looked up and saw that family face.She froze in surprise but soon chuckled. "Hehe… What a coincidence, Mr. Zeller."She took the bottle and took a small sip before turning to look outside the window, muttering under her breath, "Well, the jig's up.""Not a coincidence. I'm sure we're both here for Alison," Jasper said bluntly.Renee simply flashed a smile that didn't reach her eyes.And before she could start, Jasper cut her short

Still, Alison's phone rang just as she kept complaining.Turning and seeing that it was Ben, she handily answered, "Hey—""Help!!! Allie, I'm being kidnapped—Mmph!""Hello?! Ben?! Ben?!"Alison panicked when she heard Ben crying for help on the other end and promptly grabbed Renee's arm. "Sorry, Renee! Ben's been kidnapped—I have to help him!""Calm down!" Renee caught her wrist in turn, calm enough to quickly process the issue. "Ben has no friends or family here in Jormund, let alone enemies… The only one who would do it is your brother, and I don't think it's all that bad.""B-But Jasper is going to kill him!" Alison cried anxiously. "No… I need to talk to him!""Sure," Renee replied while nodding, returning to the couch and not intending to stop that.As Alison started toward the door, she turned again to find Renee staying on the couch, as calm as a cucumber. Flustered, she asked, "Is it really okay if I don't talk to Jas?""Ben can sort it out himself," Renee calmly rep

Renee smiled in turn. "Care to recommend some fun places in Jormund? I could use a stroll since I have time."Luke was just about to speak when he saw his boss glaring at him in the backseat and felt a chill down his spine. "Well, Mr. Zeller will be free the next couple of days too, so he can be your tour guide. He's a local too, so he'd be really familiar with Jormund."Renee simply flashed a smile that didn't reach her eyes.She was well aware that Jasper wasn't local—did he even have to mention that?Still, she sighed in exasperation as she remembered how Alison hugged her arm and pleaded, "Bestie, I'm begging you—can't you find out where Ben is, even if it means you have to sleep with him? Please, I really can't live without Ben. That's how much he matters to me."Renee sympathized, as Alison was pregnant and mustn't be put through too much shock.Most importantly, Renee would like to get to know Ben as well and understand how great he was to completely bewitch Alison."Mr.

"Let go of me! I can leave on my own!" Nana snorted proudly as she knocked Luke's hand away, while furiously glancing between Jasper and Renee.Stamping her feet, she then turned to leave.Still, she stopped a few steps away, whipping out her phone to take a photo of Renee and send it to Quincy.Luke sighed in relief as he watched her disappear into the distance.Meanwhile, Renee poured herself a drink and was just taking a sip when she met Jasper's gaze.She smiled faintly but said nothing, while the smile somehow stung Jasper.Glowering, he said, "Don't listen to her nonsense. I'm not interested in brats."Seeing that she kept smiling and was clearly skeptical, he continued, "She's a distant relative who was always clinging to me as a child. There was this one time when she got sick, and she clung to my hand and demanded I marry her."I ignored her, so she threw a fit and refused to take her medicine until the old man forced me to give in. And that was when she really got per

Renee nodded. "Yes.""Then let's exchange numbers. It's rare for you to come to Jormund, so I could take you sightseeing tomorrow."As he spoke, Randy whipped out his phone and flashed his contact QR code. "Here, scan this."Renee had no reason to refuse, but even as she quickly did so, she felt a chill down her spine for some reason.Ding.As her phone jingled, signallying that she had added him, Randy nodded and waved his phone at them. "Gotcha. Save my number, and I'll call you later."Renee was just going to invite Randy to sit with them since he knew Jasper, but considering that she had an agenda, she didn't do so.Candy greeted Randy just then. "Mr. Paul! Do you remember me? I'm Candy."As Candy and Renee were neighbors, she was there whenever Renee had piano practice and therefore recognized Randy.Still, Randy only noticed Candy when she greeted him, and he didn't recognize her.After all, he had met many people, and not everyone was worth remembering.Noticing the c
