The hot mist within the shower created quite a steamy atmosphere.Stefan towered over Renee as he pinned her to the wall and murmured, "Is this close enough for you? Can you see everything clearly now?"Renee felt light-headed, her face burning up in embarrassment. She tried breaking free from his grasp, huffing in rage. "Let go of me, Stefan! I know you're a homosexual, so drop the act!""Homosexual?" Stefan narrowed his eyes, visibly confused. 'How did this crazy woman come to the conclusion that I like men?'"Aren't you?" Renee decided to take this opportunity to ask more questions. "Is your lover really Mr. Y, the largest shareholder of KCL Holdings? How long have you guys been dating? Was Briar just a scapegoat for your secret relationship?"Stefan stared at her incredulously, unsure if he should stay mad at her, or laugh at how ridiculous she was being.He leaned down towards Renee, brushing his lips against her ear as he said softly, "Do you really think I like men?""I…"
Stefan's eyes were dark with desire, and it looked as if he was about to kiss her again. Renee was like a tiny little lamb who had willingly offered herself as dinner.It would be quite a waste of her 'efforts' if he didn't take the opportunity to 'teach her a lesson'. Additionally, he'd be able to convince her that the rumors regarding his sexuality weren't true."I've already cut ties with you, but you keep coming back to tease me. Since you want me so much, I'll just have to give you what you want, right? Otherwise, you might say that I, as your ex-husband, am being too selfish.""You've misunderstood!" Renee protested with a gasp. Her entire body felt like it was burning up from within. She did realize that her actions were quite misleading, so she couldn't put the blame entirely on him for this misunderstanding."I really did come here out of curiosity, and I wanted to see just what the famous Mr. Y looked like! I never wanted to sleep with you! If I still liked you, even just
Azure Group had only been founded recently, so they didn't have many employees. The two young women in charge of the exhibition were merely interns. They had never been to such a grand event before, and had exercised caution the whole time.“I’m so sorry, Sir. Ms. Everheart is a very busy person. If you have any issues you’d like to bring up, please inform us instead.” “Fine then!” The man scowled. “The Global Technology Summit has provided a list of mandatory requirements for participating companies of this annual exhibition. Not only has your company only been established less than a year ago, you don’t even have any independently produced products! Clearly, your company does not meet the requirements. I’m giving you three minutes to get out of this exhibition hall, or I’m calling security!”“B-But we received an invitation from the summit, which means that they allow us to participate. If you chase us out now, doesn’t that mean you’re going against the organizers?”Hearing the
Everyone thought Renee was doomed, only to realize that the scream had actually come from the large man's mouth. "Ah! My arm is broken! It's broken!" The man howled in agony, but still had the strength to continue threatening her. "You wretch! You should know that I'm the head of security for this summit! Anyone in the industry would know to give me the utmost respect… Now that you've provoked me, I'll make sure you and your company are wiped from this plane of existence if it's the last thing I do!" He snarled, his eyes bulging in fury.Renee loomed over the man, crushing his shoulder with her foot this time. "I'm counting to three. Apologize to me and my employees, or I'll break your other arm too."The man was quite unwilling to admit defeat at first, but as Renee stepped harder on his shoulder, he felt as if his arm was about to be dislocated. Chickening out, he yelped in pain. "I… I'm sorry! I was wrong for behaving like that! I was wrong! Please let me go!"As more people
"Hah, you're in for it now! Mr. Hunt will definitely make your life a living hell!" Jason said gleefully as he held onto his broken arm. Despite the pain causing him to break out in a cold sweat, just thinking about Renee's horrible fate delighted him.He then turned to Stefan, trying his best to flatter him as much as possible. "Mr. Hunt, why don't we take this matter into our own hands? An eye for an eye, right? Let's break all her limbs so she won't tarnish our industry's good name!""Breaking limbs, huh?" Stefan's eyes glinted dangerously. "That does sound like a good idea."Renee felt chills run down her spine. She didn't expect him to be so cruel! 'We used to be married! Even if it really was for the sake of hiding his sexuality, I was still his wife! He doesn't have to go this far…'Jason immediately started acting cockily, pointing towards the guards and shouting, "What are you doing just standing there? Did you not hear Mr. Hunt? Break all of her limbs! Let's see if she'll
"I'm clearly doing this because…" Renee paused, then grinned mysteriously as she half-joked, "I want your money!"Stefan now looked rather speechless. He could tell that the woman was being dismissive, and her reply basically gave him no information on the situation."I told you that you can ask me for money if you need it. We were husband and wife, so I'll definitely try to satisfy your financial needs as best as I can. You don't have to beat around the bush when it comes to things like this.""Just ask you?" Renee smiled sarcastically. "What if I said I wanted half of the Hunt family's wealth? Would you be willing to give that to me?"Hearing this, Stefan's expression darkened. "That's ridiculous!""Aw, and here I was thinking that my ex-husband was so generous. Looks like you're still going to be stingy when it comes to paying up. You can't even afford this little request…"Although the man looked exceedingly upset, Renee didn't seem to be worried about irritating him further.
Seeing that Renee refused to give up, Stefan didn't try to persuade her anymore. He just turned around and left with a cold expression on his face.When he returned to the very center of the summit forum, he instantly caught everyone's attention. Stefan turned his head slightly, speaking to Elijah who was standing behind him. "Inform Wyatt Haughey to publicly announce that the summit will be blacklisting Azure Group. All companies, and I mean all companies, are banned from partnering with them!"Not only did the annual Global Technology Summit provide the top companies a platform to promote their products, the most important section within the summit was the forum. With big shots from different countries gathered in one place, they would all discuss the future development of the industry, similar to a conference meeting.As the CEO of Hunt Enterprise, Stefan's electronics company accounted for seventy-five percent of the market, so he was definitely considered the most powerful of t
The audience started clapping as soon as the emcee finished speaking.All the bosses and big shots stared at the door in anticipation, wondering who the new director of the Electronics Technology Association would be. This person would be the one guiding the industry of electronics technology for the next four years.The spotlight shone on a figure walking through the door—a professional-looking woman clad in a black power suit with her hair tied up in a high bun."What?!" Elijah exclaimed in disbelief. He was the first person to respond. Rubbing his eyes, he added, "Is there a problem with my eyes? Because I think that's Madam!"Stefan frowned slightly. He stared at Renee's graceful figure, completely caught off guard.Renee walked up to the podium with her head held high, her eyes scanning the audience below. She then introduced herself, "Good afternoon, everyone. My name is Renee Everheart, and I am the new director of the Electronics Technology Association."Renee used to eit
