Renee naturally understood that Martin was trying to get her together with Tom but didn't expect him to be that impatient. "Is this really appropriate?"Martin shrugged. "What's inappropriate about it? We're all friends—anyway, I gotta go. Take your time, kids. Bye!"With a pointed look at Tom, he then left.Renee sighed in exasperation but had no choice other than to stay with Tom. "When did you come to Hyperia?""Just yesterday. Apologies for imposing," Tom replied, his mannerisms perfectly gentlemanly."When did you meet my father? You boys seem close," Renee then pressed gingerly to dig up any information she could use.Tom didn't seem particularly on guard and answered, "Five or six years. Adversity makes strange bedfellows, as they say."Renee nodded. "I see…"After that, they talked a lot, after which Renee took Tom on a tour around Salt City.However, so much had happened recently that Renee was still enfeebled and soon sat down, not wanting to move another step.Seei

Alison and Renee kept chatting for a while until Alison reached a checkpoint and hung up.Renee was exhausted after so much and freshened up before going back to bed.She had no idea how long she had been asleep for, but she jerked awake when she heard a rustle in the balcony.Tiptoeing to the bed, she pulled out a knife and waited silently, until a shadow opened the sliding door and entered calmly.As he stood by the bed, Renee's heart pounded and wondered how he made it up to the twelfth floor, when he asked, "Renee?"Renee recognized the voice. "Is it really you?""Yeah," Jasper replied.Her nerves calming down, she strode up and kicked him in the shins. "You jerk! Are you trying to give me a heart attack?"She started to reach for the bedside lamp when Jasper moved, catching her wrist. "Don't."Renee then nodded. "Martin bugged my room? After he did the same with my mom?""No, don't worry. I've had my people check," Jasper replied.Renee felt the coldness of his hand and

Jasper chuckled. "We don't have to die together. If you get hurt, kill them, not yourself."Tousling Renee's hair, he smiled as he clearly cherished their time together.Renee pressed herself against him in turn, holding him so tightly as if worried he would leave once she let go. So much had happened recently that she cherished everything she had now even more.Nodding, she said, "Okay."Jasper patted her back gently in turn and coaxed, "Sleep. I'll be right here."Renee nodded and quickly fell asleep in his arms as she was really exhausted.Hearing her breaths turn rhythmic, Jasper smiled lovingly, as he stayed completely still in case he woke her.Still, he couldn't resist putting his palm on her belly, feeling the presence of that tiny life form… the testament of their love growing within.He was going to be a father!He couldn't wait to tell the world, but now, he had no choice but to enjoy it all alone…-The next day, Renee jerked away and quickly reached beside her

At the same time, Candy was groaning inwardly, wondering what was wrong with Alison—why wasn't she doing anything about Ben, even now?Returning to the photocopier and finishing up, she then delivered the copies to Quinton's office.Quinton was busy working and waved her off. "You can go. I'll call you if I need help.""Yes, Mr. Lane."Ding!As soon as she left Quinton's office and closed the door, her phone rang again, this time with a WhatsApp text.She was too busy and forgot to block Nathan on WhatsApp, and she put on her earphones before opening the video in a quiet corner."Ah… yes! Yes! Give it to me… Yes…"It was a video of her indulging herself, her own moans leaving her flushed in an instant.Candy's hand shook as he watched the video play, her heart sinking and herself almost suffocating.So it was just as she feared.She was always careful when she was with Ben and Nathan and watched out for hidden cameras, but it was pointless.Ding!Another message arrived fr

While Renee found the person familiar and got in the car, she wondered if they had met before because of Daniel.Still, his back was hunched, and he had stubble on his chin. The black baseball cap made it even harder to associate that appearance.As the doors locked, they slowly drove out.Along the way, Renee kept staring at Hank through the rearview mirror, trying to place his face. "Hey, have we met before?""Hoho…" Hank chuckled in his gruff voice. "I actually think we have, when you asked Dan to bring the crew for dinner.""Oh, I was just thinking that…" Renee replied, but she still couldn't place his face.Nonetheless, they hadn't driven that far when they stopped at a red light, and Hank whipped out a phone and typed something, showing it to her.Renee was taken aback, but she soon saw the text: [The car is bugged.]Then, as she looked up at him, he was mouthing, "Jasper."Stunned, Renee's eyes widened, her pupils dilating as she recognized the lip movement even without
