Chapter 1045

Author: Mizuki Sei
Francine's words nearly scared Seraphina to death. She gulped, trying to explain herself right away. "I-It's not like that, Madam Francine! It's just that the person who gave me this recipe has a… special identity. I don't think she should be near Stef at all…"

"Really?" Francine asked doubtfully. She wondered, 'The person wants to save Stef, but can't go near him. Isn't that just a contradictory statement?'

Seraphina sighed deeply and glanced at Stefan. She then leaned closer to Francine and whispered the truth to her.

The mother instantly understood, balling her fists as a conflicted expression appeared on her face. Finally, she said, "Whatever, this recipe came from unknown origins, so we shouldn't put too much effort into looking for that person. If that expert was just trying to reel us in with something good, then betray us later, we'd be in trouble."

"You're right, Madam Francine. I was worried that this person might plot against us, so I didn't dare to use the medicinal tea

    Stefan frowned deeply. He was slowly feeling more and more certain that he had lost some of his memories, especially those related to his 'afterlife buddy'.Seraphina turned pale, a wave of fear consuming her. "N-No. You just need to remember who I am."Outside the ward, Francine paced about, looking extremely upset. Layla nervously asked, "Madam, are you worried about something?""What do you think? Just look at what my son suddenly became! How could I not be worried?" Francine seemed to be rather disturbed, snapping at anyone she encountered. She rambled on as she stared at Layla. "Did you not notice how weird my son's condition was?""You're right, especially his brain. It seems as though it had taken quite a serious injury. If it's possible, I'd really recommend getting a second opinion and a full body checkup.""Yeah, you think something's wrong with his brain too, huh? I suspect…" Francine paused, scanning her surroundings nervously."What do you suspect?" Layla started

    In the middle of the night, a black luxury car drove fast across the winding mountain roads, as if it were a phantom. It seemed to be heading towards the deepest corners of the forest.Renee was holding the steering wheel with one hand, drifting through a 90 degree curve perfectly with ease.She then looked at the rear view mirror, staring at the man laying in the back of her car. He seemed to be heavily affected by the sedative, remaining fast asleep despite the speed and bumps throughout their ride.'Tsk, tsk, Francine sure is cruel. How could she give her son such heavy drugs? Isn't she afraid that it might affect his brain?' Renee thought to herself, then called the dean of Greenwood Sanatorium, Sebastian Walker. "Mr. Walker, I'm almost there. Sorry for the trouble, we might occupy the sanatorium for quite a while."Sebastian, who was on the other end of the line, was warm and friendly. "Hey Ren, why are you being so polite with your old Uncle Walker? I was best friends with

    However, Margaret never would have expected everything to turn out so smoothly, with so many coincidences on their side. 'I guess it's their destiny. The gods knew that they still had unresolved fate with each other, and forced the two together in their own mysterious ways.'Sebastian chimed in warmly. "Ren, I heard about your situation from Margaret, and rest assured that the sanatorium will provide everything you need to help Mr. Hunt recover as soon as possible.""Thank you! Thank you so much!" Renee was so touched that she teared up, and bowed to everyone deeply."It's getting late, so why don't you and Mr. Hunt go get some rest for now? We have arranged the west wing suite for you—it has the coziest environment we can provide. Not only can you cook, rest, read freely, you can even take a hot bath under the beautiful night sky while listening to streams of water gushing gently. It is truly a place for relaxation." The vice dean, also known as Sebastian's wife, Yulia Norris, intr

    "Dang, your face is smooth as usual. How can you have better skin than most women? I'm honestly impressed!" Renee murmured appreciatively as she touched the man's face.Stefan normally would act like a ferocious beast, refusing to allow anyone into his heart. Yet now, he just seemed like a tame little kitten, and wouldn't fight back no matter how she caressed him.Just as she was getting addicted to it, Stefan suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up, pinning Renee under him in the blink of an eye.His long, slender fingers wrapped around the woman's neck harshly. As he continued tightening his grip, he growled, "I'm a weakling to you, huh? And you could just shove me into a bag after knocking me out, huh?! You damned woman, how dare you?!""You…!" Renee coughed and choked. Her lovely neck looked rather fragile, as if one could snap it if they used just a little force.The man was using so much of his strength that it was starting to suffocate her. Her face was flushing dark red, an

    This made Stefan feel even more doubtful. "What is our relationship? Why would you put in so much effort just to treat me? Don't you know the consequences of transferring me to another place in secret?""I don't care as long as you can get better," Renee said, determined. She knew that if Seraphina or Francine found out about her actions, she would have to take quite a heavy fall. However, Margaret mentioned that they needed him to be in a completely secluded area if he were to receive proper treatment. With no other choice, she merely decided to improvise."Hmph, and yet you still refuse to reveal our relation to each other. No matter how generous and kind you're being, all of this is just too odd for me to trust you." The only person Stefan could trust right now, was Seraphina. Hence, his tone was frigid when he spoke to Renee. "As long as you send me back to Seraphina's side, I can consider letting you off.""Sorry, I won't agree to that." Renee stood up and patted his should

    Anxiousness crept into Renee's heart instantly. 'This is weird, it's so early in the morning, and that guy is in an unfamiliar place! Besides, he's blind, so where could he have run off to?!'She swung the door open as she intended to look for the man, bumping right into the vice dean. "Good morning, Ren. You're up early. Did you have a good rest?" Yulia asked with a gentle smile. She then pointed towards the employee behind her, who was pushing a white cart. "I had the dietary department make some nutritious breakfast according to both of your physical conditions. Quick, have a taste."Renee, unfortunately, was in no mood for this, her expression sorrowful. "Thanks, Mrs. Walker, but I have a bigger issue to deal with now.""Don't panic. What is the problem? Can I help?""Well…" Renee seemed conlifted, uncertain if she should tell the truth. After all, it was embarrassing to admit that she couldn't keep an eye on a seriously injured, blind man. It was no different from admittin

    Yulia shot the guard a dirty glare and comforted Renee once more. "Don't worry, our sanatorium hires professional forest rangers to clear out Dragonmount regularly. There shouldn't be that big of an issue, so I'm sure we can find him.""I know, and he's not an average person either. He's going to be safe." Renee took a deep breath, her gorgeous face lacking emotion. "Mrs. Walker, you can head back for now, I'll go look for him.""No way!" Yulia refused immediately. "Dragonmount is a complicated area, there are just too many dangers out there, with dark pits and ponds, and occasional sightings of wild boars and wolves too! You have no experience in dealing with that, so let's just have a forest ranger look for him instead.""Didn't you say there shouldn't be that big of an issue, and that you're sure we can find him?""Ah…" Yulia seemed awkward. She wasn't exactly lying when she said finding him wouldn't be an issue, it's just that they would likely find him… dead."Don't worry, Mr

    The large bear was enjoying its meal at the time. However, hearing some noise coming from behind it, it paused and turned to look at the woman.Its mouth and fur were drenched in blood, and it was holding onto a piece of bone, with a few smaller pieces of flesh still attached to it. "Ah!" Renee broke down right there and then.'That… That's Stefan's bone… Stefan's flesh… And it's right in front of me!'Roar!The bear howled at Renee, and the woman was unsure if it was excited, or trying to provoke her."I'm going to kill you! I'll shred you to pieces!" Renee shrieked as she attacked the bear's head with a spin kick.Despite her petite figure, she was a very agile and strong person, and immediately sent the black bear stumbling backwards.The bear had never met such a bold person and was frozen in place. The bone in its hands was no longer as appealing now.It just stared at Renee blankly, as if it was trying to ask: "What the hell is wrong with this woman?!""What are you lo

    "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
