"Mr. Hunt, don't worry. Miss Garcia is doing just fine. She'll recover and be discharged from the hospital in a week if nothing goes wrong." Joanne's attending doctor explained carefully. "But her body is weak. It seems like something's troubling her, so she's not trying to stay alive. She doesn't eat much either, and just relies on the IV drip to survive. It's all a bit complex… it'd be good if you could give her some moral support."

Stefan nodded. "Thank you, I'll do that then."

The hospital dean and Joanne's doctor walked with Stefan for a while until they arrived at Joanne's ward. Stefan was about to send them off, but suddenly thought of something. "By the way, why did Renee come to this hospital?"

"Miss Everheart?" The hospital dean remembered Renee, but mostly because of Justin. "She came with Mr. Baldwin. It seems like something went wrong with her brother's surgery, so they rushed him here as an emergency case. His attending doctor was hired by Mr. Baldwin though. He made a

    "Umm..." The dean looked conflicted. "We do know an expert in this field, but Mr. Baldwin set up this team, so it might upset him if we suddenly change it.""You're worried about upsetting him? What about upsetting me?" Stefan's gaze turned icy, and his aura became menacing.The dean went pale, and swallowed nervously. "I understand, Mr. Hunt. Please let us handle this." "Make sure the effectiveness of your doctor surpasses Justin's," Stefan added casually as he walked away. "Don't worry, Mr. Hunt. We'll do our best." The dean gritted his teeth and decided to use all his resources and connections for this task.The Hunt family ruled Beach City; they'd rather take their chances with an angry Justin than an angry Stefan.Stefan was silent, but he was no longer upset. 'Wait for me, Renee… You'll be crying tears of gratitude once this is done.'Renee returned to Quinton's ICU ward. Haze was waiting there, and he peered at her intently as if he were appraising a piece of art.Feelin

    "You're overthinking. We were never that close, and so many things have happened between us that things can't go back to the way they were," Renee said softly as she gazed into the distance. In the past, she might have had feelings for him, but after all these events, they had started to fade.The only thing she wanted now was for her family to be safe and healthy—that was all that mattered.After a while, they heard footsteps, and saw Robert walking towards them dressed in casual clothes and carrying a surgery kit."Doctor Cromwell, aren't you going to treat my brother today? Why do you…"Renee looked at Robert's attire in confusion. He didn't look like someone who was about to perform surgery. "Miss Everheart, Mr. Baldwin… I'm so sorry, I can't treat him. The dean has arranged for someone else to take over, so you both can talk to the new attending doctor… I have something to do at home, so I'll leave now.""What?" Renee's eyes grew wide in shock. "Didn't you do a good job with

    "Mr. Wilfred, what happened? Why did you remove Doctor Cromwell from the medical team? He's my brother's attending doctor and he saved his life! He should be in charge of the case," Renee exclaimed in outrage.If Quinton wasn't hospitalized there, she would have lost it completely."Umm… We don't want to delay Mr. Everheart's treatment, so we're going to get a better doctor to take over his case. We're trying to help him wake up as soon as possible." Ezra Wilfred didn't dare to speak frankly since they had yet to succeed, and he couldn't reveal that it had been Stefan's order. "Doctor Cromwell is very good, and he's someone we trust too. I don't think there's anyone else more suitable than him. Can you put him back in charge?" Renee was firm. She had always suspected that Quinton's accident was the result of someone's scheme, and she trusted Haze's doctor since he had saved Quinton's life."Miss Everheart, please believe me when I say that there's always someone better out there.

    "Umm..." Ezra averted his gaze nervously. 'Damn it! Stefan ordered me not to expose it before it was done. How could I have made such a silly mistake?' "No, I'm... talking about the hospital. We have targets to hit. This hospital has a record of ninety-nine percent recovery, so we can't fail this for the sake of the hospital's reputation," Ezra lied quickly.Convinced, Renee left it. Her main priority was to ask for Owen's help to save Quinton. "Ezra, do you know where Doctor Wagner is? I'll go ask him personally if you guys can't persuade him." Renee was used to doing things herself and didn't want to owe others, so she preferred if she could go talk to Owen herself."I learned from Doctor Wagner's friend that he often goes fishing at sea. In fact, he should be out now. If it goes well and he's in a good mood, we might be able to persuade him. If not, it might be difficult," Ezra said honestly. Owen wasn't attached to a hospital, so whether he took on a job or not depended solel

    Renee wanted to meet Owen as soon as possible, so she didn't mind taking a few risks. After all, Quinton's condition could worsen the longer they delayed treatment."Only one?" The man was filled with disdain as he said coldly, "You have to pay extra for the captain.""No, I can navigate it myself," Renee said casually."You're going to navigate it? You're just a woman!" The man scoffed in disbelief."Yes, and I have the license for it. In fact, I'm probably better at it than your men.""Fine then. This is the first time I've met a woman like you, lady. You're something special." The man shook his head in wonder and gave Renee a small old dinghy. When she turned it on, smoke billowed out of it.Well… she had asked for the cheapest boat. Renee started coughing because of the smoke, but she could not complain because she was running out of time. It was fine as long as it could sail.Vroom! She set off in the direction the man told her. The boat soared on the large waves, making

    "Of course, you'll find him familiar! Go online and search for Master Hunt, the head of the Hunt family, the top family of The Great Eight of Beach City. See what the president of Hunt Group looks like!""Oh gosh... are you telling me that the man sitting beside Dr. Wagner is the famous Mr. Stefan Hunt?" The woman covered her mouth and widened her eyes in disbelief. "I didn't think I'd ever be able to get this close to him! Wasn't he famous for being hard to deal with? He never got close to women, right? Why is he such a playboy now? Wasn't he the one who invited us to go out to sea with them?""Don't bother trying to understand how rich people think. Maybe he's interested in women now!""So, does that mean we have a chance with him?""I guess so, but all they're interested in right now is the fish. They don't care about us at all. It's hard to figure out what they're thinking...""Whatever! They're fishing, but we can still seduce them." After they made up their minds, the biki

    "Heh! Sure." Renee grinned but was cursing Stefan inwardly. 'Damn you, Stefan Hunt! Here you are having the time of your life, and you even brought Dr. Wagner along! I don't know how many women have been here, and what kind of things went on. If I had a choice, I'd never want to get on it!'The women on the yacht targeted Renee the moment she went onboard."Hey, this young lady has such a unique fashion sense. She doesn't show her figure at all! Is she shy or just plain ugly?""Yeah, we're here to make Mr. Hunt and Dr. Wagner happy. You bought this tiny boat here to pursue them, but you're pretending to be all noble and superior. How pretentious!""Mr. Hunt, she's sticking out like a sore thumb. Can you chase her away?"However, before Stefan could speak, Renee snapped back, "I'm ugly? Well, at least I'm not made of plastic! If you want to make Dr. Wagner happy, you should do a talk show instead! Also, don't you think you're being hypocritical? The only pretentious people here are

    Owen glanced at Stefan, then nodded. "Fine, you have my word. You were willing to fish with me, so if I don't help, it would be rather ungrateful of me... So, where's the patient now? I'll go and treat him."Stefan told him which hospital it was, as well as Quinton's name. "Alright. Let's go back now, I think we can make it," Owen glanced at his watch and said lightly."Are... Are you guys going back to save my brother?" Renee listened to their conversation in disbelief. Stefan had done so much to get Owen here, but he actually had the same goal as Renee—asking Owen to cure Quinton. But... why?She had just argued with Stefan, and he and Quinton were enemies. Why would Stefan fish with a doctor just to ask him to save his enemy? Renee knew that Stefan was a petty man who fussed over everything and would take revenge on anyone who offended him... When did he turn into a kind person?"You're overthinking." Stefan put both hands in his pockets and scoffed arrogantly, "I didn't do

    "Divorced?" The man was surprised at first, but soon remained calm. He snorted, "That's not a big deal. We can't judge the love a man holds for a woman through marriage. Many men ignore their wives and are madly in love with their lovers. I'm sure Renee is the woman Stefan loves the most.""I'm telling you, he doesn't love her!" Leia insisted.She sighed. Filled with indignation, she added, "He divorced my friend for his mistress. Based on your words, his mistress should be the one he loves best. If not, he wouldn't divorce my friend and watch her date another man. Do you think a man would behave like that if he loved her?""Is that so?" The man narrowed his eyes, trying to ascertain the authenticity of Leia's words. If Stefan divorced Renee for his mistress, then from the perspective of a man, that meant he did have a change of heart. Renee was no longer the woman he loved the most.Then again, based on the information the man had found, Stefan was madly in love with Renee. He r

    The man observed Renee carefully, his gaze complicated and unreadable. He remained silent for quite a long time. Terrified by his stare, Renee wrapped her clothes tighter around herself. "If I've offended you in the past, I'll apologize to you here. Tell me how I've offended you. I think we can figure out a solution. I'm sure I can do it.""A solution?" the man snorted, his lips a sneer. "Do you think the dead can come back to life? If you think that's possible, we can figure out a solution.""Does our grudge involve the dead?" Renee asked.No matter how much she racked her brains, she couldn't for the life of her figure out when she had met this man. She recalled accepting a mission when she was young and reckless, when she needed to kill a drug lord in Southeast Aeos.As an internationally top-ranked assassin, she hated murder the most. That, and she rarely got involved in such missions. If her younger self had willingly accepted that kind of mission, however, then her enemy

    Leia swallowed and leaned close to Renee.She was as confused as Renee and wondered why they would get into so much trouble when she just wanted to visit Liam. Yet, everyone in the fort was out to get her and Renee killed. It felt like a dangerous adventure—there wasn't a single moment of respite!"I don't know, either," Renee said, "but I'm guessing it has something to do with the past and the recent events. They've long held a grudge against us."When Renee was trying to earn her living, she offended quite a lot of people since she was young and bold. Their enemies right now loomed over them aggressively, as if harboring intense hatred against them. Perhaps it was a long-held grudge. Renee couldn't imagine anything else."What should we do?" Leia asked softly.Since they were kidnapped and surrounded by armed guards, they were at their enemies' mercy. They had no idea the direction they came from. "I don't know. Let's act accordingly," Renee said, sighing.She had lost all

    Mateo frowned, thinking.After a long time, he said meaningfully, "In this fort, there's only one person who dares to fight against you and me and makes Master step forward.""Could it be…" Liam became enlightened and abruptly stood up. "Things are getting troublesome. I must find them right away!""I'll go with you." Mateo jumped out of bed and put on his clothes.Liam looked at him in confusion and snapped coldly, "Stop meddling! Are you plotting something?" He had no trust in Mateo and doubted everything Mateo did. "Plotting what? Of course I want to get them back safe and sound with you!" Mateo wiped away his cold sweat and said emotionally, "I don't want to be accused wrongly before I get anything good out of it. Both tycoons will find fault with me!"Mateo had a restless sleep the night he learned that Stefan and Xavier protected Renee and Leia. He felt that he had unknowingly got into deep trouble, and thought hard how he could resolve it.Since he had the chance to f

    Liam didn't purposely want to make things difficult for Mateo, but the whole conflict was directly linked to him. What's more, Leia and Renee were gone. Liam had no idea who to go to other than Mateo. "Didn't I make myself clear? If I told Benjamin about this, I'd get nothing out of it. I have yet to reach a consensus with you. I don't have to get rid of my backup plan so eagerly."Mateo felt helpless; he was no longer vigilant toward Liam, and instead shot Liam a disdainful gaze. "Aren't you always smart? Why are you acting like a fool now? You look lost. Just stop pestering me.""Does it really have nothing to do with you?" Liam narrowed his eyes and observed Mateo's expression, wondering the authenticity of the latter's words."I just caught them. Don't you know where they are? As long as we reach an agreement, I can let them go," Mateo said, giving Liam a hint.After having a meal with Liam that night, Mateo regretted his actions. Renee and Leia came with great supporters, so

    "It's… It's Mr. Jenkins! He told me to guard the door of the third jail and stop anyone from going in." Andrew trembled, his hands raised, submitting himself to Liam. "I made a huge mistake just now. I'm sure Mr. Jenkins won't forgive me. Can you…please beg for mercy for me by then?"Andrew was too cowardly to resist, choosing to strive for a little chance of survival. He hoped that Liam could kindly defend him before Benjamin got him killed."Did Mr. Jenkins give you such an order?" Liam looked suspiciously at Andrew, wondering about the authenticity of his words."Yes, he did! I'm under your mercy. I don't have to lie to you. You can ask him yourself," Andrew confessed fearfully, looking as if he were about to cry."That's unnecessary." Liam put away his gun and coldly exited the third jail.In a matter of minutes, he reached Mateo's bedroom and kicked it open without hesitation.The guard failed to stop him. Fearful, he said to Mateo, "Boss… Mr. Osborne would like to meet you.

    Liam's eyes flashed coldly; he quickly fished out his gun and pressed it against Andrew's forehead. "Are you talking about this?"Andrew raised his hands and sighed helplessly. "Mr. Osborne, I just did what I was told. It's useless if you make things difficult for me. Even if you shoot me, you can't go in, can you?"Andrew's subordinates aimed their weapons at Liam, and the atmosphere became tense. A careless mistake might start a war."Do you think I don't dare to shoot you?" Liam was about to pull the trigger, his face fierce.When Andrew heard the bullet being loaded, he broke out in a cold sweat and panicked. "Hey, don't!""Get out of the way if you're scared!" Liam growled, pushing the gun against Andrew's forehead tightly."Okay, okay! I'll step aside." Andrew, trembling, ordered his subordinates to retreat. Then, he led Liam to the third jail. Liam hurried to the room where he had gone to visit Leia and Renee previously. Much to his dismay, he found that it was vacant

    Liam watched Amber leave; he could still hear what she had just said, claiming that he should spend the rest of his life alone. It made him emotional.Yes, he loved freedom and disliked being bound. It might be his destiny because the opposite of freedom was loneliness. He shook his head and took a few deep breaths, trying to make himself sober with the cold night breeze.Amber might not be a part of his life. He would leave the fort sooner or later. The most important thing was to leave the fort smoothly with Renee and Leia. He couldn't meddle in Amber's fate. It would be fine if she married someone or took over Benjamin's career. It was her business, and had nothing much to do with Liam…When Liam thought of it that way, he was no longer gloomy. He was finally enlightened, and smiled. "Don't be a busybody, Liam! You never stop for any interlude!"Amber was never his in the first place. He believed that his displeasure was because of his despicable possessiveness over someon

    Amber pursed her lips, her tone cautious."Of course, you can." Drunk and dazed, Liam approached Amber and held her shoulders. "I'm just worried if you can find a better guy than me since you admire me that much."Amber could smell the alcohol on him as well as the fresh scent of his breath. She found it unfamiliar. Uneasy, she moved away and tried to put some distance between them. "Liam, let's call it a night. You're drunk.""Yes, I'm drunk, but I can still think straight. I'd like to know the answer to that question." Liam ignored Amber's avoidance and instinctively approached her. "You just need to tell me what you'll do if you can't find a better guy than me.""If I can't find a better guy than you, I won't get married." Amber disliked it when Liam acted like a confused scumbag. Her frown exposed her loathing. "I can focus on my career like Ms. Everheart. Men don't seem like a necessity.""Men aren't necessities?" Liam chuckled when he heard that. "Oh, Amber! I can't believ
