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

    Renee gradually became nervous. She held her breath and slowly walked to Stefan's ward. She then gently opened the door. The luxurious ward was spacious and clean. A light relaxing fragrance lingered in the air. Stefan was lying flat on the hospital bed with his eyes tightly closed. His long and thick eyelashes lit up under the light of the orange lamp on the bedside cabinet. They even cast mottled shadows on his face. He had suffered a severe fall. His head was wrapped in a thick bandage, and his left arm and right leg were in casts. He appeared like a mannequin that was torn apart and reassembled. He looked in an extremely sorry state. Renee was speechless.At the same time, her eyes instantly became watery. Stinging tears blocked her vision. Stefan turned out that way because of her. His old injuries were still not cured, but now he gained new injuries. His injuries were just like deep shackles, and they oppressed her so much that she could not catch her breath. 'You si

    He held her hand and put it on his distinctly featured face. He then acted coquettishly with her like a kitten and intimately rubbed her hand against his face. The stubbles on his face rubbed against her palm, and it softened her heart. Tears rolled down her cheeks. When she was about to speak, Stefan said, "Promise me. Let's stay together from now on, okay, Seraphina?" Renee was struck speechless.She stared at him in a daze. So, his eyes were not cured. Besides, he mistook her for Seraphina again. "I felt very cold while I was in the river, and I bled a lot. In the deep and endless darkness, I almost failed to hold on several times. Luckily, you were with me. I remembered you giving me CPR, and we hugged each other tightly like vines. I remembered the feeling of risking our lives together, so I'll pester you for the rest of my life. Don't even dream of getting rid of me even though I'm blind!" Stefan held her hand and refused to let go. He then passionately kissed the ba

Later, she planned her wedding with another man…and wanted to learn sewing from Liam to sew their wedding suits. It was heartbreaking!Hence, Liam chose a noble excuse to try and ruin the wedding between Amber and Mateo. He kept using pessimistic wedding opinions to influence Amber's thoughts as a traditional woman.True, he hadn't influenced Amber's mind solely out of his selfishness. Women would have more freedom if they stayed single. He dissuaded Amber from getting married mainly for the sake of her happiness, but it didn't cover up his despicable thoughts. Hence, he chose to keep quiet."Wow, Liam! I didn't expect you to fall for her. I thought you were forced to be with her!" While enjoying the fun, Leia forgot about her sadness and fear. Her eyes went wide as she teased Liam. "Hey, you kno

    Liam found Leia unlucky and disappointing. He simply stopped talking.A brief silence overcame them. It seemed like they had accepted their fate to get killed as they quietly waited for their death.Macsen had returned to the shop to treat his wound. After struggling for a long while, Mateo failed to struggle free. Macsen's subordinate whipped him several times. "Motherfucker! Just wait. I'll make you pay!" Mateo furiously cursed Macsen's subordinate. Macsen's subordinate sneered. "Hmph. You want to make me pay? I think my boss will skin you alive. It's been a long time since I've seen a lamp made of human skin. We're waiting for a good show!"Leia had closed her eyes, but when she heard that, she shuddered and reopened them abruptly. Her voice was shaky as she asked, "Liam, what's that?" "Uh…" Liam found it too cruel and couldn't bring himself to explain it to Leia. He hated his incapabilities. "It's my fault. I got you guys into this mess. Damn it all!""No, we can't blam

    Renee was well aware of the situation and was calm in the face of death. "If Macsen wants to kill us, Benjamin will feign ignorance. I think we're doomed here today.""Whatever. I'm not afraid!" Leia didn't take it too seriously, grinning. "You and Liam are the most important people to me. Although we weren't born on the same day, it's great that we can die on the same day. I want us to be siblings in our next lives!""Silly, you're so optimistic. We're going to get killed, not attending a party! Why are you this happy?" Liam's gloominess and tenseness gradually relaxed because of Leia's optimistic and happy tone. "Yeah, it isn't a big deal. I have no regrets since I can die with you guys.""You guys have no regrets, but I'm unlucky!"Mateo kept sighing. "If I knew, I wouldn't have meddled in this or caught you guys. At most, I'd be suppressed by another guy. But now, I'm about to get killed. I regret it! You have big supporters, don't you? Is there any way to contact either of

    When the fight reached an intense moment, Macsen's subordinates managed to surround Liam and Mateo. They were disappointing.Macsen's most loyal subordinate aimed a gun at Liam's head and screamed at Renee, who had gone mad. He tried to threaten her. "Let our boss go, or I'll make you pay a price!" Renee regained her wits and turned to look at Liam. Her mouth was bloody. A helpless sigh escaped her. "Why are you this useless? How could they get you?"Helpless, she slowly got up and let Macsen go temporarily. "Motherfucker! Go to hell!"When Macsen regained freedom, he was no longer a gentleman. He slapped Renee twice with one hand and held his neck with the other. Then, he ordered his subordinates, "Tie them up with the woman on that ship!""Okay!" Macsen's subordinates were obedient. They quickly grabbed a thick and heavy rope to tie up Renee, Liam, Leia, and Mateo together, tying the rope around them thrice."Liam, why are you caught too? You're so useless. We even wanted

    Everyone looked at each other in dismay before raising their weapons to attack Renee.Liam ordered his subordinates to fight Macsen's men when he noticed the danger. "Don't hurt her, or I'll fight you!"There were more than ten people from both sides. When they started fighting, the whole jetty was filled with the sounds of weapons and bullets. It was a mess.That battle sacrificed a lot of Liam's subordinates. Gradually, he failed to hold on."Mateo, where are your men? Get them into the fight. If anything happens to Boss, you'll suffer too. That crazy Stefan will kill everyone!"While fighting Macsen's subordinates, Liam wanted to involve Mateo in the fight since the latter was merely watching. Besides, he knew what a man like Mateo, who was good at weighing the pros and cons, cared about the most.As expected, Mateo chose to side with Liam when he heard that this mess would affect his relationship with Stefan.After all, Macsen was the most powerful person in the fort.

    "What do you want? I'm warning you! Stay away from me, or I won't go easy on you!"For an unknown reason, a chill ran down Macsen's spine when he saw how fierce Renee looked. He wondered why she was that fierce. She could walk fast even when dragging a sandbag over 110 pounds—she wasn't ordinary.Holding a gun, Macsen flexed his fingers as his knuckles turned white. "I don't care about people's lives! I can kill them if I'm happy, including you!""Is that so?" Renee stubbornly faced the gun and walked forward. She glared at him coldly. "A demon like you should never live. I'll kill you, even if I have to die for it!"She swiftly pounced on and pushed him down despite the heavy sandbag.Everything happened so fast, Macsen was dumbstruck. Renee even managed to knock on his gun. The gun went off, firing a bullet at a nearby stone pillar. It nearly hurt one of Macsen's subordinates. "Oh, you don't care about people's lives, do you? You can just kill them, huh? I'll make you suffer t

    Macsen clenched his fists, agitated. For many years, he was mainly responsible for the armed forces of the fort. On the other hand, Benjamin instructed his adopted sons to take care of his business. Previously, Hunt Enterprise promised the Jenkins family many profits under the condition that Renee and Joanne could leave the fort safely. Hence, Benjamin let them go at that critical point despite the humiliation he faced. Afterward, Stefan continued his close cooperation with the Jenkins family. While this happened, the relationship between Macsen and Benjamin grew tenser. Gradually, Macsen kept gathering power to surpass Benjamin one day and take revenge on Stefan.Renee and Leia's sudden arrival at the fort was beyond Macsen's expectations. Although he was getting stronger, he wasn't powerful enough to fight Benjamin and the Hunts. Despite this, he naturally wouldn't give up such a good chance easily. Macsen's revenge was the result of his impulsiveness. He had been reckless,

    "Well, you're bold. A pity that…you fell in love with such a cruel man like Stefan!"Macsen took a deep breath and waved melancholicly. Then, he instructed someone to push Renee into the river.Renee neither resisted nor tried to stall for time. She just wanted to get it over with. Having seen through men and human nature, she suddenly became pessimistic.Macsen's subordinate grabbed Renee and dragged her to the river bank. Before he was about to push her into the river, a dazzling light ruined the darkness and oppresiveness of the jetty. "I knew it was you, Macsen!" a furious voice resonated in the air. Liam, holding a floodlight, shone it into Macsen's eyes. "You and I aren't enemies! Why did you target me? Do you know how important these two people are to me?" he growled fiercely. Mateo followed closely behind. At first, he watched everything in silence. Eventually, he said something to sow discord between them. "Macsen, why couldn't you talk it out with us? You secretly

    Disgust overcame Renee. She found Macsen pathetic."You claimed that you love your girlfriend, but you married Luneth. You married her and got a kid. Now, you want to be intimate with the woman you've just met. Do men think that love is just a trivial thing?""How could you…" Macsen was stunned. He didn't expect her to say that so directly. Guilty, he retorted, "You don't know anything! Men's love is different from women's love.""What's the difference?" Renee snorted and shot him a disdainful stare. "Yeah, it's different. Women are superior human beings. Once they fall in love with someone, they'll never sleep with another man. But men are different. Men are simply animals. They can love many people and sleep with different women. Maybe men and women shouldn't exist at the same time. Then, there won't be so many heartbroken women.""I disagree!" Macsen rolled up his sleeves, turning competitive because of Renee's words. "You make it sound like only men will have a change of heart.
