Chapter 144

Penulis: Mizuki Sei
Renee and Stefan were so close that they could feel each other's breath.

The warm air that Stefan exhaled reeked of alcohol. Misty-eyed, he gently lifted her chin with his lanky fingers and asked, "What happened that night?"

Renee frowned, suspicion written all over her face.

"Have you genuinely forgotten, or are you just evading any responsibility?"

"Why don't you tell me?" Stefan replied in a husky voice, though it was unclear if he was serious when he added, "Only after you tell me will

    Six months later, at the beginning of winter, snow began to fall.The snowflakes were small, landing on their hair and shoulders like tiny, eight-pointed ice crystals.Renee had finally pushed most of Azure Group's projects forward. It was time for her to take a break.She rented an RV and planned to take the kids on a road trip. They would first traverse the Marine Highway into the inland mountains before taking Route 318 straight to Lavendale, one of the most remote places in the world."What? You're taking Adie and Abby on a road trip to Lavendale?"Quinton was the first to object when he heard the idea."Lavendale is a high-altitude region, and the kids are still so young. What if they get altitude sickness? Some of the roads are difficult to drive on, too. What if you run into a blizzard? And even if you manage to avoid one, what if you encounter wild wolves or bears? The consequences could be disastrous!"Listening to Quinton list all the risks, Renee simply smiled. "So wh

    Three days later, Francine held a press conference and publicly revealed the truth about how she had kidnapped Quinton all those years ago.At long last, Quinton was able to reclaim the life that had always belonged to him.The Great Eight of Beach City officially recognized Quinton as a member of the Everheart family and welcomed him into their affairs as well as strategic alliances.When Austin heard the news, he personally traveled to Beach City despite the inconveniences that came with old age to congratulate Renee and Quinton. He declared that the Baldwin family and the Everheart family would remain friends and allies for generations to come."Quinton, seeing you makes it feel like I'm looking at Maurice himself!"Holding Quinton's hand, Austin looked him over repeatedly. Tears streamed down his face. He was just as emotional as Timothy had been the first time he met Quinton.Austin had also brought numerous priceless treasures to celebrate Quinton's return to the Everheart

    "What are you planning to do next?" Joanne looked at Renee warily before asking. "W-Will you give this relationship another shot?"There was silence.Renee's hands stopped moving. Her gaze drifted into the distance as she thought for a long moment before gently shaking her head. "No.""But you two clearly love each other. All the grudges and misunderstandings have been resolved. Why can't you have a happy ending?"Joanne's voice carried a stubborn longing.Despite having gone through so much pain herself, she still held onto the belief that everyone could have a happy ending just like in fairy tales.In a fairy tale, the prince and princess always overcome every obstacle and end up together."This is a happy ending. He's doing well, I'm doing well, and the children are doing well. We're simply no longer together as husband and wife. So what? Marriage isn't the only meaningful relationship in this world," Renee said calmly as she resumed shaping the clay in her hands. Her movem

    The argument between Quinton and Joanne only grew more heated. There was tension in the air.Renee was worried Joanne might have another episode, and she was equally afraid Quinton might get hurt. Left with no other choice, she quickly raised a hand to stop them."Alright, alright, stop arguing. I'll do it. I'll make it, okay?"They had gotten into such a fierce fight over whether or not to sculpt Stefan. It seemed the only person who could end the conflict was her.Picking up a lump of clay, Renee began shaping it seriously. "You two should go get some rest. It's getting late anyway. I'll make his sculpture. Nothing can make me forget how he looks. I can sculpt him in no time."Since Renee offered to compromise, Joanne and Quinton finally stopped arguing, but neither of them had let go of their anger. The way they looked at each other made it seem like they wanted to tear the other to pieces."It's fine, Ren. I'll stay with you. Being with you is as good as resting. It's not l

    Adie's request instantly made the atmosphere in the room awkward.Quinton and Joanne both lowered their heads and pretended to be busy.Renee was unsure whether she should agree or refuse. She froze in silence.Only Abby remained full of excitement and looked at Renee expectantly. "Mommy, please make him! We don't know what happened to Daddy. He hasn't come to play with us these past few days. If this keeps going, Adie and I might forget what he even looks like."Children always spoke from the heart. They wanted Renee to sculpt Stefan simply because they wanted the clay figure to resemble him as closely as possible. There was nothing wrong with that.But from Renee's perspective, things between her and Stefan had deteriorated far too much. Being asked to sculpt the man herself would only reopen her wounds.Seeing Renee remain silent, Adie looked disappointed, but he still nodded in an understanding manner."It's okay if you don't want to make him, Mommy. We never really had a

    A week later, Timothy's condition stabilized, and he was discharged from the hospital.Renee quietly hid in a corner outside his ward. Only after confirming that Timothy was truly out of danger did she finally leave with peace of mind.When she returned to Everheart Manor, Quinton and Joanne were helping the children with arts and crafts. The scene looked harmonious.While Renee had been occupied with work and entangled in her unresolved relationship with Stefan, leaving her little time for the children, Quinton and Joanne had naturally taken on the roles of 'Dad' and 'Mom.' At first glance, the four of them looked more like a real family."Mommy's home!"Abby was the first to notice Renee standing at the doorway of the playroom. Proudly holding up a handcrafted castle, she beamed."Mommy, look! Uncle Quinton and Aunt Joanne helped me and Adie make our Home of Love. Isn't it beautiful?"The miniature castle was exquisitely crafted. It was a nearly one-to-one replica of Everheart

    Shelley had some of Renee's rebelliousness in her. She was uncooperative and rebuked Stefan. "Mr. Hunt, please be clear. I'm working as Ms. Everheart's assistant, not yours. Why should I listen to you?""If you want your boss to be safe, do as I say. If we delay, the situation might get worse." Stefa

    Everyone breathed a sigh of relief but didn't forget to take a jab where they could."All of you, shut up! Don't talk about Ren that way! Have you forgotten that she saved Liam and me before? With our family's status, even if we cultivated another eight hundred years, we'd still be unable to match up

    Stefan coldly asked the question."A-Alright, Mr. Hunt!" The security guard switched on the surveillance camera for the number two elevator.Renee was by herself the entire time, but a man in a plaid shirt suddenly walked in when the elevator stopped on the sixth floor.The duo conversed for a while be

    Renee's expression was grave as she stood before Timothy.The old man looked up at her innocently. "What do you mean? I've just finished reading the news."Renee pursed her lips. "You can drop the act, Grandpa. There's no way you would have been able to read in the dark, and besides… your newspaper is
