Margaret’s random guessing threw Renee into deep thoughts.She frowned. She examined the letter repeatedly and remained silent for a long time.Margaret realized that she must have said too much. She quickly covered her mouth and said hurriedly, "What I have said... Don’t take it to heart. Why would the Hunts do that? If they were really the ones who harmed the Everhearts, why would they let you marry Mr. Hunt?""You’re right. But Dad and Mom wanted me to read this letter only if I got a divorce and emphasized that I must not blame the Hunts. So, there must be some secrets about this matter, and it must be related to the Hunts."Renee narrowed her eyes and roughly understood the entire picture. She said, "Although the Hunts might not necessarily be the ones who harmed the Everhearts, they must know something. Moreover, the people behind the fall of the Everhearts should be very influential. Otherwise, Grandpa, Dad, and Mom would not repeatedly tell me not to take revenge or force m

Renee hurried over upon hearing Margaret and saw a green carved jade lying in the deep hole. She picked up the jade and brushed away the dirt to examine it more carefully.The jade was bright green and translucent. There was no trace of impurities, and it was cool to touch. Judging from the exquisite carvings on the gemstone, she knew immediately it was a priceless antique.Margaret stared at the ornament in confusion. "This is strange. Since when was such valuable jade buried in the backyard? Hasn’t anyone discovered this before? Could it be that someone sneaked in and buried this here after the fall of the Everheart family?"Renee frowned as she tried to figure out an answer, and that was when her eyes were drawn to the pattern carved on the jade.She had a feeling that she had seen this pattern before."I don’t think so."Margaret carefully recalled the past. "I’ve been guarding this house diligently since the incident. It’s impossible that anyone got in. Even if someone took

The man stood upright as usual. His stunning face was indifferent and even seemed arrogant.He feigned ignorance of Renee and wanted to enter the elevator.Renee raised her chin. She initially wanted to ignore him, but the image of him drinking and howling with a group of handsome men came to her mind. Reminded of how he acted when he refused to let her go, she burst out laughing.Stefan stiffened instantly. His tall figure turned into a freezing iceberg, and he asked, "Why are you laughing?"Renee forced herself to change her facial expression back to an indifferent one and said, "Because I’m in a good mood!"He looked at her disdainfully. "Hmph. What could you possibly be happy about? You’re rather optimistic.""I am divorced and have escaped hellfire. I’m certainly feeling great!"Renee raised her delicate face and sneered gaily, "I'm not like you, who went drinking and crying late at night. You didn’t only hire handsome men to soothe your wounded heart. You even shamelessly

Stefan said nothing.He strode to the huge floor-to-ceiling windows and looked out at the blue open sea.This scene was only visible to their two penthouses in the whole neighborhood. It was such a coincidence. It felt like there was an invisible thread tying him and Renee together.They might have looked at the same sea for many nights without knowing each other's thoughts…"Why did you want to move out?" After a long time, Stefan turned around and asked in a low voice.Renee was busy opening all the drawers in the living room to look for the quilt when Stefan threw the question at her, and she froze."Because I feel like it!" She replied perfunctorily and added a self-deprecating remark. "The main reason is that I know you don't like me. If we live next to each other, we’ll keep bumping into each other. So, I decided to move out to keep out of your sight and not affect your mood."He harrumphed, "You’re just playing the wise guy when you don't know anything!""Maybe I am.

Renee's heart skipped a beat. She put a hand on her belly awkwardly and pretended to be calm. "I wish I was pregnant so I could proudly marry into the Osborne family. Unfortunately, I have been enjoying myself too much since the divorce, and I gained weight from eating too much. Anyway, thank you for your reminder, Mr. Hunt. It's indeed time for me to lose some weight. Liam is, after all, so young and vibrant. If I don't maintain a good figure, who knows when he will be seduced by another vixen, and what would happen to me then?"Stefan's face turned dark instantly. His eyes were like sharp blades cutting through her skin."Well, I wish you good luck then."The man grunted and put his hands in his pocket. Then, he left without looking back at her.Renee stood in place for a long time. She reflected on her words just now, uncertain of whether she had gone too far with what she just said.'He seemed to be very angry just now. However, what was he angry about when he did not like her

Briar sprang out of her recliner as if she was facing a strong enemy and shouted fiercely, "What are you doing here? Don't you know that trespassing is illegal? I can call the police to arrest you, you know!""You want to call the police?"Renee smirked. She took out her phone and dialed 9-1-1, and handed it to Briar. "Go on and ask the police to come so they can see how abusive you are.""When did I abuse anyone? As the mistress of this villa, I have the right to beat and scold my employees at will! These people should be punished when they make mistakes."She raised her chin as she smugly emphasized the word "mistress".The few servants who were beaten up from the torture cowered in a corner, not daring to say a word."The mistress of this villa?" Renee sneered and shot back, "How can you prove that? Is your name on the title deed? Suppose you can't prove your ownership of this villa. In that case, the employment relationship between you and the servants will be non-existent, a

Judging from Lydia's reaction, Renee knew that she remembered very clearly that she had left the baggage with the quilt in the villa."Go on. Tell me where my baggage is," Renee said coldly.Lydia looked troubled. After making sure that there was no one around, she said, "I am not going to hide this from you… That woman has cleared your belongings, and we don't know where she sent them. That woman is such a troublemaker. Recently, she’s been making a scene to either refurbish your room or remove all the plants you planted in the yard. In short, she doesn’t allow anything which belongs to you to remain in the villa. She’s just so difficult to serve!"Right at that moment, Briar, who was proudly sticking out her belly, came and slapped Lydia in the face. "Traitor! Who asked you to be such a tattletale?"Lydia's face turned as white as a sheet, and she quickly lowered her head, not daring even to breathe.Renee found it rather ironic when she thought of how high and mighty Lydia look

Stefan instinctively wanted to hang up when he heard Briar's voice. But when he learned that Renee was also there, he immediately turned the car around and headed back to Hunt Villa.Briar covered her swollen cheeks and said triumphantly, "Just wait. Stef will be here soon. You just hit me, and the evidence is all here. I shall see what will happen to you!"Renee put down her mobile as well and said with a faint smile. "You should also wait. The police will be here soon. It's so hot today… perhaps the detention center will be cooler."The numbers she had just dialed were indeed 911.Since there was no way she could beat this scoundrel, she would leave it to the law.Stefan arrived at the scene in a very short time. His grey supercar looked cool as it rumbled under the dazzling sun.The man performed a stylish drift with his car and pulled up in front of the door. Briar couldn’t wait to go to him when he got out of the car. Sticking out her belly and pointing to her red swollen

"I don't know how to tell you. I'm sure you can understand." Renee could not bring herself to say more because it was a humiliating privacy. She might as well keep it to herself."Let me guess…" Justin's gaze grew sharp as he went straight to the point. "The man in your story is Stefan, isn't it?" Silence washed over Renee as she kept her head bowed. It was a silent approval.Justin burst into reckless laughter, which was scary. He looked down at his cut wound and laughed pathetically. "This is why he could make you fall in love with him, and I couldn't. I'm too cultured compared to him.""Don't say that, Haze!"Seeing how defeated Justin was, Renee became uneasy. "It isn't written in the stars for us. Plus, I've fallen in love with Stefan a long time ago before I even got to know you. I also rely on him physically and psychologically. I can't control my feelings. It's not something we can change. We…" "Stop!" Heartbroken, Justin pushed away everything in front of him and s

Time passed by. Gradually, the pain knocked some sense into Justin. He no longer wanted to take advantage of Renee."Let me get you some water." Renee had no idea what she could do for Justin. After some contemplation, she got to her feet and poured him a glass of water.Finally, she studied the room closely and found that it was a wedding room as Justin had mentioned. Everything was set up according to her preferences, which she had occasionally mentioned to Justin. For example, she loved keeping some ceramic ornaments on the bedside cabinet and hanging some seashell wind chimes at the windows. The entire room was painted in beige and green, which were her favorites, too. Beige gave a sense of warmth, while green gave a sense of gloominess. All of those details became the perfect wedding room for Renee.If everything went on smoothly, she would spend most of her time there, and he would be her life companion. Unfortunately, there were no ifs in the world.Renee handed the gla

Renee covered her lips, her tone filled with disbelief. "I…cut myself." Justin leaned against the corner and frowned deeply. He was in deep pain."Why did you cut yourself?" Renee was scared out of her wits and grew more sober. In her panic, she threw herself at him and tried to stop his bleeding.Justin reacted aggressively as he waved his dagger and warned fiercely, "Get away from me! Don't touch me!" "I…" Renee paused, too afraid to act recklessly. She pointed at his wound and said, "I'm just worried about you. You're bleeding. It must hurt a lot. Why did you hurt yourself?" "It's better to be in pain!" Justin gnashed his teeth and said in agony, "The pain will knock some sense into me, so I won't act like an animal and lose control of myself.""I see…" Stunned, Renee was moved to tears. She understood why he cut himself. Surprisingly, he wanted to stay sober and not be controlled by the drug in the wine.He could have used her to satisfy his desire, and she would never b

"You're playing with fire!" Justin leaned close to Renee's ears and said fiercely, "What do you think there is in the wine? Maybe I'm not someone who will take liberty on women, but I can't promise that the wine won't make me so." "So, you're saying that the wine…" Suddenly, Renee realized the wine was not as simple as she thought. She also understood why Rose had behaved in such a mysterious manner. "Stay…away from me!" Suddenly, she became frightened and wanted to keep some distance from Justin. She knew that people could not be trusted completely, especially under the effects of chemical reactions. Things would certainly get out of control. Justin probably did not want to do anything to her, but both of them would lose their minds under the effect of the wine and do something that would fill them with regret. The only way to prevent such an incident was to avoid each other."You want to stay away from me, but it's too late now. I'm no saint. I'm just a normal guy!"Just

"I'm so thirsty!" The burning sensation of the wine made Renee thirsty. She wanted to drink some water.In the dark, she heard some rustling. The next second, something was on her lips. It seemed to be someone else's lips. She wondered if someone had secretly kissed her."Who are you?" Renee grabbed the person in front of her and interrogated angrily, "How dare you kiss me without my permission! Do you know who I am? I'll cut off your lips!""Let's see if you can do that or not." The man sounded dull and drunk, but he was also overbearing.Although Renee was drunk, she could discern who it was. She called out in the dark and tried to confirm her doubt. "Haze…?" "Yeah, it's me," Justin admitted, but he did not plan to let her go. He used a more overbearing manner and trapped her between him and the door."What do you want?" Renee panicked. She wanted to kick him away, but she did not resist when she learned that it was Justin. After she had done so many things to hurt him, s

The servant walked forward with trepidation and helped Justin back to his room. Austin's eyes were dark. He whispered to his assistant, who nodded and immediately carried out his order.After two glasses of strong wine, Renee felt dizzy and could not stand steadily. "It's weird. Is this wine this strong? I just had two glasses of it, but I feel quite dizzy." It was hard for her to exit the hall. She could not stand properly, so she supported herself against the wall."Ms. Everheart, you didn't seem well. Let me help you to get some rest." Austin's assistant caught up to her and stood behind her. He even sounded respectful. "It's… fine. I can go back to my room." Renee waved; she didn't want to trouble others. Besides, she did not want others to see how miserable she was. She had assumed that she was good at drinking and would not get drunk, but it seemed like she had overestimated herself. After two glasses of wine, she became quite drowsy. She would not easily leave if s

Renee blinked and smiled brightly at Justin, asking him, "Are you worried about me?" "No, I'm not worried about you!" Justin said angrily. "I don't want you to get killed here. I can't explain it to your brother and kids. It's hard to handle the three of them."He was not lying. Although he had befriended Quinton, Adie and Abby might make a scene there if they realized that Renee had drunk so much wine at the party. They were witty, always full of ideas.Hence, it was better not to cause trouble. Before they could make a scene and things get out of control, Justin must stop Renee. He wasn't worried about her at all. "So, you're not worried about me?" Renee's gaze turned dull as she sighed. "It looks like you didn't forgive me. So, I must drink this glass of wine." Something was wrong with Renee, or perhaps she just wanted to torture herself. It seemed like she insisted on drinking the wine. She swung off Justin's hand and gulped down the wine."You're out of your mind!" Justi

The aged white wine was strong. Ordinary people would find it hard to drink a glass of it. Yet, Renee had drunk two glasses of it consecutively. It was a little dangerous. Everyone at the dining table was initially watching the fun, but they showed Renee some pity after she drank two glasses of wine consecutively. After wiping her lips clean, Renee staggered and said to Justin, "Let me toast to you now. I've wronged you the most." Justin, sitting there, said with a poker face, "You don't have to say sorry to me. We don't hold each other any grudge. After all, we can't make others fall in love with us.""No, I must apologize to you. It's for my sake." After that, Renee used a bigger glass and filled it with wine."Whatever!" Justin frowned and ignored Renee. He had no idea what was wrong with her. He had yielded and let her off, but she stubbornly wanted to keep drinking the wine.He wondered if she had forgotten the fact that she had just recovered from a serious illness. She

Suddenly, Justin became mature and stopped making jokes. He talked steadily and was no longer emotional. It filled Austin with worry because it made him feel like Justin was an emotionless robot.In comparison, he liked Justin's previous self better. At that time, Justin was simple and sentimental. He was the grandson Austin doted on the most.Sophia grinned and commented, "Dad, you don't have to worry about Justin. Men will change. Previously, he was just a childish kid even though he was in his twenties. He didn't know how to see through people's pretense. But he's all grown up now. He knows what's right or wrong. That's a great thing!" As a mother, she naturally did not want her son to get hurt. Although she favored Renee and wanted the latter to be her daughter-in-law, she would give up since Renee had let her son down and harmed him. All she wanted was to see Renee get away from her son."Yes, you're right. People need to grow up. He has grown up a lot lately, but the price
