Chapter 1035

Author: Mizuki Sei
"You? Help me and Stef?" Seraphina froze in disbelief as if she had just heard the most ridiculous myth.

She then scoffed. "Do you think I'm dumb, Renee Everheart? Do you think I'd really believe your fake empathy?"

Renee's gaze was cold and retorted. "Do you really think that I'd waste my energy to lie to you?"

"W… What do you mean?"

"Meaning, even if I really wanted to compete with you, you wouldn't even get the chance to go against me. I don't need to play these mind games with you."

"You!" Seraphina was speechless.

Despite her rage, she knew that Renee was right and was unable to mount a reasonable comeback.

Jovan stared at Renee with a conflicted gaze and asked coldly. "What do you mean by 'till he gets better?' How much better does he have to be?"

"That's hard to say." Renee turned to Jovan.

As if the two were playing a tug of war, she continued. "At the very least, I have to make sure he won't get taken advantage of."

Seraphina took a deep breath and reached her ha

    With eyes darkened, he grabbed her by the chin and mocked her. "Now you're pretending to love him unconditionally, huh? Why weren't you considerate of his condition when you decided to make him go through brain surgery to wipe his memories about Renee? Why didn't you think of that when you substituted his memory of her saving him with yourself?" "I…""Both you and I know that the surgery was just a facade. Your main goal was just to replace Renee in Stefan's memories! Now that you've become the person he loves and trusts most, what else do you want?! Why do you have to get her involved?!""I'm sorry, I was wrong. I… I wasn't thinking," Seraphina admitted to her faults anxiously.The woman used to be a prideful rich lady. She was so arrogant that she looked down on everyone but Stefan, as she was in love with him. However, now, when faced with Jovan, she couldn't help but feel a natural fear arising within her heart. The man knew too many of her secrets, and she was afraid that

    That day, Renee had just finished brewing some medicinal tea. She pushed open the door to Stefan's ward.Inside were Seraphina and Stefan, cuddling each other lovingly. The two looked glued to the hip, unwilling to separate at all."Seraphina, I thought about it. Let's get married once I get discharged!" Stefan said, his arms wrapped around her and his chin placed on top of her head. His expression seemed longing. "I hope we can have our wedding in Tahato. I hear they have the bluest seas and the softest sand. Since you love the sea so much, that will be the most suitable place for our wedding."Seraphina's blissful expression was instantly replaced with fear. "Marrying right after you've recovered?! Isn't that… too soon?"'Besides, when have I ever said I liked the sea?''I hate it! It's too sunny out, it's boring as heck, and it's the worst when it gets too windy!'"How is that too soon?" Stefan's face turned serious. "I love you so much that I want to put a ring on you right

    Seraphina immediately tried chasing Renee away.Stefan, who was silent the entire time, furrowed his brows as he spoke frostily. "You got injured the same day I did?""Uhm…" Renee froze, her expression stiff.'Shit, I misspoke.'"How did you get hurt?" The man continued questioning."I… I tripped and fell by accident." Renee came up with a simple excuse and rushed out of the room.She actually didn't intend for him to notice her. She wanted to do as promised. She acted like she was mute and only took care of him quietly. She only wanted to see him recover fully and leave with no regrets.However, she knew that it would now be difficult for her to hide away, especially with her previous mess up…"She left?" Stefan seemed rather disappointed."What? Did you not want to leave? And you just said you love me so much you wanted to marry me right away!" Seraphina huffed out of jealousy, feeling quite anxious.She then wrapped her arms around the man's neck and voluntarily kissed him

    Renee stayed quiet, not uttering a word the whole time. However, this only piqued the man's interest further."Is your identity classified? Why won't you even tell me your name?" Stefan continued questioning, persistent to get an answer.Renee bit down on her lips. After a few moments of hesitation, she replied clearly, "No, not classified. My name is Renee Everheart. Do you know me, Mr. Hunt?""How could you go back on your word, Renee Everheart!" Seraphina shoved Renee aside, visibly agitated.She felt as if Renee was about to snatch her precious toy, which gave her the urge to fight the woman right there and then."Renee Everheart…" Stefan repeated the name over and over again, trying his best to look through his memory but to no avail. His expression was cold and solemn.Renee was disappointed, but let out a sigh of relief. She responded lightly, "Don't waste your energy, Mr. Hunt. You definitely won't remember anything, we don't know each other at all. I only know of you bec

    Since Renee was able to keep a safe distance from him, she left the room nonchalantly.They had to admit that Margaret's recipe was almost miraculous. Despite merely having had one cup of the tea, he noticed that his wounds were much less painful the next morning. The effects were quite obvious, as he seemed more energetic as well."Stef, have some water." Seraphina poured Stefan some warm water carefully. As she stared at the steam coming from the glass, she looked for a reaction when she asked, "Do you remember you said the other day that we could get married once you are discharged? Is that offer still available?" Feeling the warmth of the water around the glass, Stefan raised an eyebrow at her question. "Of course. Why do you ask?""You've been so distracted for the past few days! I just feel kind of insecure!" Seraphina whined softly, then started picturing their future. "I've been thinking for a while, and I think it's best we change our wedding venue.""Why? I remember you

    "What? She's been discharged?" Seraphina felt a bit suspicious, torn between feeling happy and angry at her actions. "How can she just leave without saying anything?!"She should've known that this woman couldn't be trusted. They had promised to wait for Stefan to get better before leaving, but now, he was still bedridden and she had already left. She just couldn't keep her promises!"Are you Ms. Murphy?" The nurse asked cautiously."Yes, what's wrong?" Seraphina snapped at the nurse in irritation. She didn't know why, but Renee's abrupt departure made her feel uneasy. Renee wasn't the type who would give up easily, so she had to be hiding an ace up her sleeve!"I was told by Ms. Everheart to give this medicine to you. She said it works wonders, and hopes that you brew it carefully," the nurse explained, then handed over a cube of the medicine to Seraphina."For me?" Seraphina stared at the medicine in confusion, wondering what Renee was up to. She opened up the medicine, and saw

    "Ahem!" Francine had entered the room and witnessed the scene before her, and her face was black as thunder. Behind her was the caretaker that she had personally picked out for Stefan.Seraphina was mad that the happy atmosphere had been interrupted, so she was about to give the intruder a piece of her mind. However, when she angrily turned around, she was pinned by Francine's sharp gaze. She jerked away from Stefan immediately and stammered, "M-Madam Francine, why are you here?"She had been feeling guilty ever since she and Jovan had secretly bribed the neurosurgeon to give Stefan that brain surgery. She'd also been feeling paranoid and suspicious of everyone."My son is in a hospital bed, and you ask me, his mother, why I'm here?" Francine demanded, her voice tight with anger. She didn't like how Seraphina had been going about this, so she started lecturing her. "You certainly have your ways, don't you? You hid the fact that my son was injured for a whole week. Do you know that

    Layla expertly placed her slender fingers on Stefan's wrist, checking his pulse. After a few seconds, her delicate features wrinkled in concentration."What's wrong? Is my son's condition serious?" Francine stood beside her, feeling worried seeing Layla's expression.After around a minute, Layla finally moved her hand away, and gave a long sigh. "Mr. Hunt's pulse is very chaotic, it was weak yet as fast as a rushing river. It seems like a typical case of cerebral hemorrhage. It's like it has recently been damaged or been through trauma. The situation is dire.""Th… The brain has been damaged?" Francine looked at Stefan with a heavy heart, unable to process what her darling son had gone through.Overwhelmed with guilt, Seraphina snarled at Layla, "You immature child! How dare you say such things when medical experts just reported that Stef's body was in stable condition? Why are you scaring us with all this talk of cerebral hemorrhage? Are you cursing him?"Despite looking young, L

    "I… I don't know! I really don't know!" The makeup artist's face was flushed, her eyes rolling back. She felt like she was about to faint again."Are you still trying to hide the truth?" Justin continued flexing his fingers. He was certain that the makeup artist who suddenly wanted to modify the size of the gown must be aware of the truth.With her eyes rolled back, the makeup artist begged him, "I'll tell you…! Please let me go! I'll tell you everything!" Hearing that, Justin slowly released his grasp.The makeup artist finally got a chance to breathe. She kept taking deep breaths and almost cried because of her terror. "What should I tell you?" She truly knew nothing."What?" Justin's gaze grew fierce."Oh, I remember it now…" She drew in a cold breath and hurriedly said, "A handsome guy came not long after you were gone. I think he's Mr. Hunt. When Ms. Everheart saw him, she was very…"She paused, trying to find her words. "She was very…?" Justin urged her. This was the

    Meanwhile, Liam and Leia became vigilant when they saw that scene."What are they doing?" Liam walked past the guests enjoying the fun and stood between Alexander and the two guards. He faked a smile and said, "We're the guests you invited sincerely. Is this how the Baldwin family treats their guests?""Guests?" Austin got off the stage and strode toward them. Although he was smiling, coldness gleamed in his eyes. "Have you ever seen any guest steal the hostess?""You can't say that, Sir Baldwin..." Liam smiled and added, "How could you be sure that it must be the Hunt family?""Who else could it be?" "This is just your guess. They've always been here. Even if they wanted to do that, they couldn't. So… You should act fair and square, given your noble identity. Shouldn't you find fault with the culprit instead? Isn't that more reasonable?" Liam looked at Austin. Although he was younger and came from a family weaker than the Baldwin family, he was still domineering.Besides, his

    Alexander took a deep breath and analyzed logically, "This wasn't Stef's style. If he wanted to snatch her away, he would have done it openly in front of everyone. But this trick was cunning and dishonest!""Yes, you're right, but this is a special case. If he didn't use a trick, his woman would marry someone else. It's normal for him to be restless." Although Francine agreed with Alexander's analysis, she felt that Stefan could do anything if it concerned Renee. Naturally, he would stoop this far. "Regardless, we have to leave," Alexander whispered to Francine, sensing danger. "Austin has always been decisive and cruel. Since Stef humiliated him, I'm sure he wouldn't let Stef off easily. We're in danger too.""Is it that serious?" Francine looked at Austin, who was standing on the stage. He coldly ordered his assistant about something. It seemed like he wasn't that crazy. "I don't care what he'll do. We have to get out of North City right away because this city is controlled b

    "What?! She's gone?" Justin's face fell immediately. He grabbed the collar of the person who came to inform them and demanded coldly, "What do you mean?! Why is she gone for no reason?""We… We don't know!" That person looked at Justin while trembling and reported everything. "When we got there, we found no one else in the makeup room except the makeup artist lying on the ground. We didn't see Ms. Everheart, either. We don't know what happened!""Something must have gone wrong with her!" Justin pushed that person away without hesitation and rushed toward the makeup room."Hey, Justin! What are you doing?" Sophia watched Justin disappear in front of everyone. She wanted to pursue him but failed.Everyone below the stage fell into an uproar and discussed among themselves endlessly. "The bride went missing all of a sudden! Did her ex-husband come for her?""It's possible. They were once madly in love with each other. Plus, the Hunt and Baldwin families were in conflict for many yea

    On the surface, everyone felt that Justin was passionate and respected the bride well. However, only he knew that he was just terrified. He was afraid that the reality might exceed his anticipation. He was terrified to find that he was betrayed in the end when he had trusted Renee that much and treated her so sincerely."Justin, what's going on with you? How could you talk about that at such a time like this? The most important thing now is to make her come out and have this engagement ceremony. We should do the guests justice. If not, everyone will laugh at us after we've kept our dignity well for so many years!"Sophia couldn't understand his hesitation. They were just going to urge Renee to appear. It had nothing to do with their patience or ability to take good care of Renee.Both Alexander and Francine looked at each other in confusion."Dear, did you do anything?" Alexander asked Francine softly.If Renee suddenly failed to attend the ceremony, it might have been Francin

    Renee was furious—he was ridiculous!"You won't allow that?" She snorted and looked at him as if he were crazy. "Who do you think you are? You can't meddle in my life!""I'm nobody, but I know that I don't want you to marry another guy." The man approached Renee, wanting to catch her."Stay away from me, or I'll get somebody! You should know how powerful the Baldwin family is in North City…" Renee spat coldly. She did not want to make things too ghastly, so she wouldn't alert the Baldwin family if she could help it. The man sneered wickedly. "Yes, the Baldwin family is strong. So? Even if they're strong, they can't fight against my cunning means!""What do you mean?" A bad feeling gripped Renee. She wanted to ask more questions, but found herself dizzy. Her surroundings became blurry. "I'm so dizzy! What…did you do?" The next second, she staggered and fainted.He firmly caught her and whispered, "You've suffered a lot, so I'll let you rest a bit.""Ah! You… You…" The make

    "You flatter me." Renee smiled, sadness in her eyes. She recalled the day she was about to marry Stefan many years ago. The young female designer responsible for her makeup had praised her the same way. At that time, she had recently lost all her family members and was gripped with excruciating pain. Her waist had been much slimmer. She looked pitiful but bewitching. "Don't worry! Master Hunt is a great man. He'll be nice to you and protect you. You guys are a perfect match."Renee remembered that the makeup artist used a makeup blender to soak her tears and firmly told her that. The artist at that time also felt that Stefan would be her protector for the rest of her life. Renee had a crush on Stefan for many years. He was the ray of light that had saved her from her despair. Although she was strong, she couldn't help but regard him as her savior. At that time, she never imagined spending the rest of her life with someone else other than him. Many years passed since then.

    Twenty minutes ago, Renee's gown was accidentally splashed with wine. Hence, she changed into a spare slim-fit strapless gown. The long gown reached to the floor and was full of shining diamonds. It set off her curvy figure and made her appear like a noble princess from a painting. Unfortunately, her waist was too slim, so the gown didn't fit her well.The young woman who was responsible for Renee's makeup patted her chest and said confidently, "It's fine. I'll tighten the waistline a bit. Leave it to me! I'll get it done in ten minutes.""Are you sure?" Justin couldn't hide his amazement as he watched Renee, who had changed into a new gown. He cleared his throat and said, "I think this is already perfect. It's fine even if you don't adjust the waistline."He felt that Renee was the most perfect woman no matter how she appeared. She would always bewitch him, even if she was just wearing slippers and casual coats.If his parents hadn't insisted on getting a renowned designer t

    Liam looked certain. "The Baldwin residence is strictly guarded. Plus, Austin owns military power. If the Hunt family wants to take Renee away, they'll have to fight the Baldwins. Things will get very hideous. But if they use a little trick, they don't have to waste any manpower to take her away. Why wouldn't they do that?""So, you're saying that Mr. and Mrs. Hunt fought against Justin's parents to purposely attract others' attention and to cover for Stefan. They wanted to give him the chance to take Ren away secretly.""That's very likely."Liam nodded. Else, he couldn't figure out why the decent Alexander and Francine would do such an indecent thing in front of so many rich and powerful people. After all, the Hunts would be ridiculed for what they had done just now if it got exposed. It was such a great price. They wouldn't have to make such a great sacrifice if not for their son's lifetime happiness."If that was true, the Hunts are just too cunning." Leia shrugged. She fou
