Chapter 1020

Author: Mizuki Sei
The people of the rescue team screamed in joy. "How unbelievable! They survived such rapid waters. It's a miracle!"

"Cut the crap! Let's get them to the hospital."

Seraphina looked at Stefan, and when she saw him breathing on the ground, she heaved a sigh of relief. However, she became very gloomy.

She regretted being so weak and timid and not diving into the river to save him immediately. If not, she would be snuggling with Stefan now.

"We want to get them to the hospital too, but... but they're hugging each other too tightly. We can't separate them at all. Don't just stand there and do nothing. Come and give a hand."

The captain of the rescue team wiped away the sweat on his forehead and tried his best to separate Stefan and Renee, but it was to no avail.

After that, several other men rushed forward to help, but it was still useless. Hence, the rescue was delayed.

"Let me!" Jovan, who was standing beside and looking on coldly, volunteered proudly.

At that moment, he s

    "You're so vulgar!" Seraphina clenched her fists tightly. After she put away her fierceness, she suffered a great sense of defeat. He brought up her most painful rancor. During these years, she had been Stefan's buddy. They seemed to be close, so it was not strange that they ate and slept together, let alone held hands. However, their hand-holding was unlike that of lovers. She dreamed to become his true girlfriend, so she could hold his hand, kiss him, and even do something more intimate with him. "You got angry, so it looks like I made the right guess. You're indeed noble, but you can't be reconciled with it. This kind of reluctance will distort your mind. In the end, you'll become more vulgar, worse than me." Jovan got closer to her and revealed a smile with profound meaning. "Nonsense! I'm different. I love Stefan, so I won’t hurt him. You said you love Renee, but all you did was hurt her. Renee was right. Your love is vulgar and extremely destructive!" Seraphina

    After one night, Renee gradually regained her strength and woke up. "You're awake. How are you feeling now?" Jovan sat beside the bed with his head low, peeling an apple. He sliced the skin into a thin and long stripe. It did not even break until the end. It was just like what he always did, meticulous to the last detail, leaving no space to turn around. A painful headache pounded Renee's head as she looked at the white ward. For a moment, she was stunned. "Where am I? Am I still alive?" "Of course you are. You're so tough. How could such a puny river defeat you? What's more, you have a great will. You hurt your leg from the fall, but you held on until downstream. I admire that very much!" Jovan appeared like a warm younger man as he smiled tenderly and handed Renee the apple he had just peeled. Of course, she was not in the mood for apples. She frowned and asked, "Where's Stefan? How is he?" "Don't worry. He has stronger willpower than yours. He lost so much blood, y

    "No, I don't."Renee shook her head and sounded firm. She made up her mind never to get back together with him again after learning about his deep and passionate love for her. She once vowed to God that she would leave him as long as he was safe and sound. It was a vow. After she made it, it would bring greater danger if she broke it. The great disaster that happened this time around was like a warning given by God to her. If she stubbornly wanted to break that vow out of her selfishness, Stefan might not be so lucky this time. He might even get killed. "Well, what do you plan to do next?" Jovan heaved a sigh of relief and continued sounding her out. "I don't know either. I'll take one step at a time." Renee shrugged. All she had now was exhaustion, and she did not want to think too far ahead.After all, a plan was always at the mercy of fate, no matter how perfectly things were arranged. It was just like what happened a few months ago: She was deeply in love with S

    Jovan patted her shoulders and said that with deep meaning."Haha! Reticent?" Renee found that word extremely ridiculous. "If you could be reticent, how did Seraphina get that video? Frankly... it was just something you held against Stefan." "I'm sorry." Jovan heaved a long sigh. "I did that just because I love you too much and I yearn to be with you. I couldn't think of any way to make him leave you except it's for protecting you..." When he reached that point, he showed a thumbs-up. "The facts show that Stefan does love you very much. He was willing to let me be the president of Hunt Enterprise, let alone date Seraphina. Well, I admire that very much." "You're so despicable!"Renee glared at him fiercely and said, full of disdain, "You never defeated him, so don't even dream of that now. I'll turn myself in for this crime I did. If you want to use this to threaten him to give up his post as the president, you're just too naive." "No, I love you so much. Why would I risk

    "Get lost, you maniac!" Renee regarded him as crazy, so she did not take his words seriously at all. "You're a vulgar man who deserves to disappear and hide in a dark corner. If you're smart, stay in your dark corner and grow in whatever lascivious way you want. If you dare to create trouble in front of me, I'll make you pay a price you'll never forget!"She casually picked up an ornament and smashed it hard on him, trying to get rid of him.Jovan was tall, so he had the advantage. He easily dodged the attack. He held up his chin with a wicked smile. "Baby, don't be mad. If you don't want to see me, I'll leave. After all, you'll come begging me sooner or later. We'll have kids by then." "Get lost! You pervert!" Renee was fuming with anger. She ignored her leg injury and pounced on him, picking up everything she could throw in the ward and flinging them on him. The loud commotion immediately attracted the attention of the nurse. "Hey, Miss, you have just gotten out of dang

    "Err, Margaret. Why... did you come?" Renee panicked a bit. She wanted to cover her leg injury. "Stop covering that. You make me so worried!" Margaret hugged Renee and started crying violently. "I know what silly things you did. How silly you are! You jumped into the river for an unworthy man. Have you ever thought about your two kids, Mr. Everheart and even me? If anything happens to you, I won't be able to answer for it even if I pay a heavy price!" "I'm sorry, Margaret. I was impulsive, so I didn't think so far. Don't worry. I'm all right. It's nothing serious. It'll cure in two days. It's just a minor affair!" Renee patted her chest in a carefree manner. "That's no minor affair! That's the river around the city, and it’s so high. There are jagged rocks at the bottom, and if you aren't careful, you could be smashed into mush. You would have regretted it very much then!" "Okay, got it. I won't be so impulsive now. After all, I'm your adorable kid. I want to listen to yo

    Renee knew little about The Albus Order, but she heard that it was a mysterious organization that enjoyed a strangely high status in the medical world. Many patients who failed to be cured by conventional medical science would recover at last as long as they gained the treatment from The Albus Order. Besides, the leader of The Albus Order generally would not appear. If he did, it would be an extraordinary case. He was best at snatching back souls from the Grim Reaper. His exceptional medical skills could only be explained with metaphysics. It was rumored that the leader of The Albus Order would not easily treat a patient. He did not even take in disciples or ask about worldly affairs. He was even said to be no longer alive. Unexpectedly, Margaret's biological father was such a famous and magical figure. Well, what a great coincidence! "Margaret, you're very awesome. Your father is so excellent. No wonder your medical skills are so exceptional. It's a waste of your talent to

    Margaret was an outstanding physician, in addition to her meticulous studies of medical science through the years. Although she was not a divine physician, she could be considered the top medical expert in the world. She inspected Renee's injury carefully before she prescribed herbs for Renee based on Renee's body condition. Renee obediently consumed the medicine. Consequently, her injury, which was supposed to only heal in half a month, was almost cured in less than three days. At first, she could not move at all. After that, she could get out of bed and move around alone. Even her attending doctor claimed that it was a miracle. "Margaret, thank you for your medicine. It's too magical. I can get out of bed on my own now." Renee rested for three days before she felt energetic again. She felt like she was reborn. She then carefully asked Renee, "Did you help me keep it a secret from my brother?" While tidying up the room for Renee, Margaret said confidently, "Ms. Ren, don't

    Adie was still a child, but he acted like a smart person and could see through a lot of things. He could guess why Austin took them to the Baldwin residence. He had also heard the servants of the Baldwin family rebuking Renee in secret. After combining various situations, he learned about what had happened between Renee and Justin. Despite everything, Justin could forgive Renee under such circumstances. He also treated Adie and Abby nicely. It proved that he was a very compassionate man. A small regret gripped Adie. He wondered why Renee didn't date Justin right from the start. If Renee were with such a kind man, she might be very happy. She wouldn't have to suffer through so many hardships either. "No, you don't know me. I always sweat the small stuff."Justin was displeased since Adie had claimed that he was a good guy, like Renee had. He heaved a long sigh and said, "But it's useless even if I sweat the small stuff, so I stop trying. It all comes down to fate. We can't forc

    Renee turned and found Jovan unscathed. Relief washed over her. She said grumpily, "It's none of your business!""Tsk! How cruel!" Jovan clutched his chest and pretended to be in deep pain. At the same time, he teased, "I know. Your soulmate is better. I'm so jealous of him, though he's still a fallback guy.""Go to hell, Jovan!" Jovan's nasty words drove Renee mad. She grabbed a piece of napkin, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it at his face. "If I knew you'd talk so badly, I wouldn't be bothered to save you. Maybe you'll get reborn in Ulria. Then, you have to watch your tongue!""Hey! Yeah, I was wrong. You don't have to curse me like that!" Jovan raised his hands to surrender, but felt quite moved. He poured himself a glass of milk and devotedly toasted to her. "Thank you for caring about me and trying your best to save me. I'll toast to you. And you can do whatever you want.""You're so childish." Renee rolled her eyes and was amused.Justin was quite jealous to see them

    "What's that?" Justin frowned and said with disdain, "That's something to fool naive women like you. Only lovestruck fools will believe that." As a materialistic person, he never believed in things like horoscopes and fortune-telling. At most, they were mixed with some psychology. They weren't trustworthy at all.If Renee wanted to use those things to talk about their relationships and destinies, it would seem very childish. "Don't be so extreme. Those things are real and logical." Renee acted like an experienced salesperson and gradually eliminated Justin's prejudice. She said patiently, "If you believe those things, they can guide you and help you to see things through. If not, you can use them to kill time. Just try to get to know them. Isn't that nice?"Finally, Justin was convinced. He had some milk and asked her leisurely, "Fine. Tell me what kind of relationship we have based on those things." "I learned that our relationship is a declining friendship based on our birt

    "I…" Renee paused. For a moment, she had no idea how to answer that question."Don't put yourself in a difficult position. Just follow your heart," Justin said calmly. "If you want to stay, my family will still welcome you readily. If you want to leave, I'll come up with a way to help you leave smoothly."After listening to Justin, Renee answered honestly, "Maybe it's better for me to leave, though I know this choice will hurt you."She could choose to stay to protect Justin's dignity and give Austin a good explanation. It would be more relaxing and steadier for her. However, Renee knew that it could only last briefly. She would cause Justin greater harm. She might as well be decisive and stop the damage in time. "Don't say that." Justin cracked a bitter smile and said with relief, "I've stopped taking things too seriously. If you like me, you won't stop loving me even if we're apart. Similarly, you'll think about another man if you don't like me, even though you're always b

    Austin was having breakfast in the dining room. When he saw Justin and Renee walk over intimately, he finally believed that they had slept together. They seemed like a real couple."Good morning, Grandpa Baldwin!" Renee obediently greeted Austin just like before. She acted normally."Good morning." Austin nodded, unable to suppress his smile. After sizing them up, he calmly said to Renee, "We know how apologetic you are after you toasted to us last night. We'll forget about the past. You're still a part of my family." "Grandpa!" Justin interrupted Austin; he was very protective of Renee. "She's a woman, and we're not married yet. Please don't say that. A woman's reputation is the most important thing.""You…" Austin wanted to refute Justin, but their conflict was just resolved so it would be bad to pressure them more. He shook his head and said, "Fine. You two always have a bland romance. Finally, you've made some progress. I'll let you two decide what to do next.""Got it, Gr

    "Hey, Haze! What are you doing? Get off of me!" Renee struggled in confusion."Hush!" Justin gestured and stopped her.In a while, someone unlocked the door of the room."Mr. Baldwin, let me help you and Ms. Everheart change your clothes." A kind middle-aged woman walked into the room casually. When she found them sleeping together intimately, relief washed over her. "Oh, you guys are still sleeping… Fine, I'll leave you be." Then, the woman exited the room.After that, Justin stopped hovering above Renee, looking awkward. "I'm sorry. It happened all of a sudden. If I hadn't done that, they wouldn't let us go. I just did a small thing to resolve the issue." Justin was fully aware of Austin's thoughts. Although Austin was still angry at Renee, he was satisfied with her and wanted to see her get into a real intimate relationship with Justin. If that did not happen, Austin might tie them up together since the drug had failed. Justin could only act with Renee to avoid the in

    Renee grinned, satisfied after a long rest. "Why didn't you sleep a bit longer? This bed is comfortable and fluffy." While talking, she behaved like a fish as she extended her limbs and rolled around in bed childishly. In comparison to her calmness and ease, Justin behaved gingerly and did not dare to move as he lay in bed."Do you have any idea what had happened? We aren't dreaming. We're lying in the same bed," Justin said.He was certain that Renee was not fully awake. It explained why she was that composed. Otherwise, any normal woman would get out of bed with a start and keep screaming if they found herself lying in a man's bed."I know!" Renee said. After having a great time rolling around, Renee faced Justin with her head on her arm while lying on her side. "I wanted to drink wine to say sorry to you guys last night, but your family drugged the wine. You drank the same wine when you tried to stop me. We were controlled by the drug and were locked up in this room. T

    Renee instantly understood what Justin meant by that. It turned out that the incident was just a part of the Baldwin family's plan. If she left, the Baldwin family would not easily let her off the hook.Justin still cared about her at a time like that, which moved her. "Thank you. You're great." Renee cried; she had no idea how to repay him. "You don't have to thank me. I'm not so great, either. I just hate that they always pester me." Justin purposely sounded relaxed. He finally calmed himself down as he casually grabbed some bandages to bandage his wound. Then, he lay in bed.He slept on one side of the bed and said to Renee, "It's late. You should rest early. This bed is large enough. If you don't mind, you can lie in bed too."The bed was large. It was more than enough even if Renee and Justin lay there."I…" Renee hesitated briefly before she finally got in bed. She trusted Justin. If he wanted to do something indecent to her, he would have long done that. He would no

    "I don't know how to tell you. I'm sure you can understand." Renee could not bring herself to say more because it was a humiliating privacy. She might as well keep it to herself."Let me guess…" Justin's gaze grew sharp as he went straight to the point. "The man in your story is Stefan, isn't it?" Silence washed over Renee as she kept her head bowed. It was a silent approval.Justin burst into reckless laughter, which was scary. He looked down at his cut wound and laughed pathetically. "This is why he could make you fall in love with him, and I couldn't. I'm too cultured compared to him.""Don't say that, Haze!"Seeing how defeated Justin was, Renee became uneasy. "It isn't written in the stars for us. Plus, I've fallen in love with Stefan a long time ago before I even got to know you. I also rely on him physically and psychologically. I can't control my feelings. It's not something we can change. We…" "Stop!" Heartbroken, Justin pushed away everything in front of him and s
