"Atchoo! Atchoo!"Renee sneezed several times as she arrived at a crowded restaurant, so much so that her ears were burning up.“That’s weird. I swear I’m not sick anymore, but why am I still sneezing so much?” Renee sniffed, wondering if she should take some Tylenol later.“Maybe someone is talking behind your back!” Leia Osborne said as she handed Renee a copy of ‘BC News’. “Oh Ren, you’re in trouble! Your future ex-husband is out to get you. He’s even offered a hundred and fifty million as a reward!”As Liam’s twin sister, Leia was also very close with Renee. However, she didn’t worship her like how her brother did. She was more like Renee’s best friend. Whenever the two got together, banter and hilarious memories would ensue. Renee scanned through the newspapers and chuckled with disdain. “If he has the power to do this, he should think of how to mend that flawed business system instead! It’s been years, and yet their system is still as weak as ever. It really didn’t take muc
The owner of the cocky voice was Bradley Stokes. He had a cigarette in his mouth and five underlings following behind as they walked over to Renee. “Remember how your parents owe me a fuck ton of money and then decided to report me to the police for illegal trade? Yeah, I had to pay a fine of millions and was held in custody for two whole weeks!“When I was finally out and ready to get revenge, I found out those two wimps ended up jumping off a building! Fucking hell! You’re their only child, aren’t you? Now that we’ve bumped into each other, tell me… just how many times are you going to grovel to earn my forgiveness?”Leia jumped out of her seat and roared at Bradley. “Grovel?! Over my dead body! Get lost if you don’t want to die!”Bradley was furious to have been insulted. Shoving his finger in front of Leia’s nose, he said, “Who even are you, you little brat?! This is a personal matter, so you should take your own advice and get lost yourself!”“Consider this a warning!” Leia
However, those screams were Renee’s, but Bradley’s.“W-what happened?” The underlings exchanged looks of unease.Five minutes later, Renee returned without a scratch on her. She cracked her neck, and her face remained expressionless as if nothing had happened. Not even a single strand of her hair was out of place.“Have you dealt with him?” Leia asked.“Mm-hmm, it’s been years since I did this, so I’m a little rusty. It took me two extra seconds to finish him.”“Don’t be so humble, Ren. You may have used an extra two seconds, but it sounds like you got ten times stronger! That guy screamed like he saw an actual ghost! Is he even alive?”“He’s probably still breathing, at least,” Renee said coldly as she turned to the underlings. “If you wish to see your boss live, get him to a hospital right now.”Although the underlings had no clue, they could tell that something was off after hearing their boss’ wailing. Hence, all of them rushed off, visibly worried and afraid.Leia, on the
“What do you mean?” Renee was confused.“According to your HCG levels, it seems that you’re carrying twins. And it’s very likely a baby boy and girl…”The doctor sounded full of pity. “Forget about regular twins, do you know how low are the chances of conceiving fraternal twins? It’s a miracle that they were conceived in the first place. Are you really sure you want to abort them?”“F-fraternal twins?” Renee felt another wave of mixed emotions rising within her chest as she looked at the report.“Besides that, due to your physical condition, you aren’t one to get pregnant easily. Should you proceed with the surgery, it’d be pretty difficult to conceive a second time. I’d advise you to think it over once more.”After that, the doctor adjusted her mask and turned to the door. “Next patient, please.”A nurse approached Renee and said, “If you’ve made up your mind, please follow me to the changing room.”Sometime later, the red light in front of the surgery room was switched on.

Renee was completely dumbfounded as she stared at the man’s dashing figure from behind.She wondered. ‘Out of all the places, why is here here, and at this moment? Was he stalking me?’The gangsters were stunned by Stefan’s intimidating aura. All of them got into their fighting stance and yelled nervously. “W-who are you?! Stay out of this if you value your life!”“It doesn’t matter who I am. The only thing that matters is that you pay since you’ve decided to go against someone you shouldn’t have.” Stefan’s voice was stern, and that was enough to strike fear into their hearts.“Another brat with a death wish!” Otto crawled back up to his feet, gritting his teeth and rubbing his backside gently to ease the pain. “Do you know who I am? Why don’t you ask around the area? You two must be dying for a beating, huh?!“What are you guys standing there for? Get them!” yelled Otto.The ten gangsters immediately charged at Stefan and Renee with their metal bats.The people in the vicinit
When Stefan regained consciousness, he realized that he was already laying on a hospital bed, his head wrapped in white gauze.Renee remained by his side the entire time. It was only upon seeing his eyes open did she let out a sigh of relief. However, she sounded distant regardless. “Since you’re up, I’ll be leaving now.”In actuality, she worried for the man, but she didn’t want him to find out.Before she left, she felt him grab her wrist.“Are you alright? Did they do anything to you?” Stefan asked weakly.Despite his condition, his beautiful eyes remained sharp as they scanned Renee from head to toe.The woman returned his concern with a cold smile. “Thanks for worrying, Mr. Hunt. But you should worry about yourself first, especially if you still have the strength to do this. I’m completely fine!”She had loved this man for four years. Once upon a time, she wished for him to show concern toward her as well, even if it were just empty words. Now, she no longer needed his
“Ugh, watch it, you!” Francine hissed as she rubbed her forehead, trying to ease the pain. Once she realized that it was Renee who knocked into her, her anger flared up.“Why are you here?!”“I knew my little Stef would rub off your bad luck!”Renee chuckled coldly. “I’m sorry, please just endure me for another twenty days, okay?”“What do you mean?” Francine lifted her gaze, her tone hostile. “It’s not like you’ll be flying off after twenty days.”“Well, I can’t, but…” Renee shone her a frosty yet polite smile. “We’ll be legally divorced once twenty days are up.“Even if your son were to grovel in front of me, I’ve sworn to never get involved with the Hunts anymore. I figured that would be the best for both of us.”“You… you…” Francine was left in a state of shock.‘What the hell happened? She used to be so obedient back then. She would let me do and say whatever I wanted! Why does it feel like she’s a completely different person now?’“How dare you speak to me that way?!”“
The moment Renee returned to her apartment in West Langsmith, she immediately pulled out her laptop. With just a few clicks, she disabled the virus planted in the Hunt Enterprise’s system, allowing it to return to normal.The negative remarks on the internet soon came to a half, and Hunt Enterprise’s stock price slowly regained stability.“Boss, what’s going on? We’re just getting started. Why did you disable the virus all of a sudden?” Liam sounded agitated over the phone. He called as soon as he caught wind that Hunt Enterprise was recovering. “Didn’t you say you’d focus on your career now? And that you’d be targeting Hunt Enterprise? Don’t tell me you’ve started to feel bad for Stefan. Do you still like him or something?”For the past few days, the malware in Hunt Enterprise’s system resulted in a massive leak of their client’s information. A few of their partners ended their contracts with Hunt Enterprise out of anger and turned to work with a new company instead.On the surf
