Chapter 1676

Penulis: Mizuki Sei
Stefan hid behind a rock, waiting for them to change shifts. He knew the security would be the weakest at that time. He'd heard from Neil that their guards had a ritual—they would perform a Dragon Dance, their ethnic dance, when they wanted to change shifts.

Soon, the six guards at the cave and the other six guards who were taking over started dancing, and Stefan took that opportunity to sneak into the cave through a side door.

The cave was small but deep, and there was only one lamp in the d

  • The Untouchable Ex-Wife   Chapter 2700

    Stefan's gaze turned cold. After a brief silence, he looked at Steve and said nonchalantly, "Mr. Warren, I didn't realize that people at your age still have the energy to meddle in the love lives of the younger generation.""Well…"Steve was momentarily at a loss for words. He quickly laughed it off. "I was just asking casually. You're right. At my age, being this nosy really isn't appropriate. I'll watch myself."He was a seasoned veteran of the business world. He had dealt with all kinds of people and rarely felt intimidated. Yet whenever he faced Stefan, he instinctively kept himself in check.Stefan's words were calm and even polite, but his intense gaze made Steve deeply uncomfortable. In the end, Steve suppressed his urge to probe further and focused on fishing.Besides, regardless of what kind of relationship Jovan and Renee had, it was obvious that Stefan was fiercely protective of her. Steve knew better than to push his luck.And so, the afternoon passed peacefully.R

    Words like that could melt even the coldest heart.Steve, meanwhile, lit up with pure gossip-fueled delight and teased shamelessly, "Well now, who would’ve thought? The young Jovan, who's rumored to be a notorious playboy, turns out to be a hopeless romantic. Come on, spill the beans. Who exactly is this angel you’re so devoted to?"The question instantly made the atmosphere awkward.Everyone present, except Steve himself, knew perfectly well who Jovan’s so-called angel was.In fact, Steve had probably heard some rumors, too. It was just that, according to his worldview, they were a little too outrageous to believe outright. That was why he threw out the question to test whether his suspicions were true.However, the question was left hanging.Even Xavier, who was usually loose-lipped, had effectively sealed his mouth shut and didn’t dare comment.An eerie silence fell over the lakeside.Renee, Stefan, and Jovan sat in a neat row as if they had rehearsed it. Their movements wer

    The moment Renee and Stefan’s eyes met, she froze and couldn't move at all.Only three words came to mind. This is ruined.What was supposed to be a fishing game meant to pull Steve into her net now felt like a disaster in the making. She even had the uneasy feeling that Jovan, the fish that was already practically on the hook, might slip away too.As for Leia, the second she spotted Xavier, her mindset shifted entirely.A moment ago, she had been a carefree spectator, perfectly in sync with Renee. Now, she only wanted to disappear.After all, she and Xavier had just broken up. Being dragged into a situation where sides had to be chosen was deeply uncomfortable. It made her feel restless, awkward, and desperate to crawl into a hole."Well, well. Mr. Hunt’s here. Mr. Stuart's here too. It's really lively here today. Come on. There’s an open spot right here."Jovan casually pointed to the space beside him.It was the gap between him and Renee. It wasn't wide, but it could fit t

    Steve was a smart man. He obviously understood Jovan’s invitation.Still, he didn’t state his position right away. Instead, he set up his own fishing spot not far from Renee and Jovan."There really are plenty of fish in this lake. Every time I come here, I reel in some big ones. I’m the type who knows how to be grateful. Back when this place wasn’t famous yet, the first person who brought me here was the current head of Hunt Enterprise, Master Hunt himself. So naturally, I stick with him and keep fishing for the big catch," Steve said.After setting up his gear, Steve had made his stance perfectly clear.Renee was reluctant to give up and decided to push back. "Mr. Warren, that sounds a bit exaggerated. Fish are gifts from nature. What does gratitude have to do with it? Even if Master Hunt hadn’t brought you here back then, someone else would have eventually. I think whoever helps you catch more fish is the real benefactor. Don’t you agree?"Steve baited his hook, cast his line

    Renee showed a knowing smile, and there was a determined look in her eyes. "Of course. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come to fish today."The moment she finished speaking, both her and Jovan’s bobbers twitched.Leia opened her eyes wide. She waved at the two urgently. "Hey, hey, quick! Both of you, your fish took the bait!"At the same time, Renee and Jovan reeled in their lines. Both of them landed a fish, and they were about the same size too."Wow, that’s incredible. You both caught one. And especially you, Mr. Hunt. You didn’t even use bait and still caught a fish. You’re basically a modern-day fishing legend!""Miracles can happen if one has solid faith."After he spoke, he carefully unhooked the fish, bent down, and casually released it back into the water.For a split second, even Leia found herself a little captivated by this man who felt both righteous and dangerous at the same time.Renee watched Jovan in silence for two seconds. She also released her fish and said, "You

    Renee wasn't dumb. There was no way she couldn't hear the subtext in Jovan's words.She just didn't believe he was as noble as he made himself out to be, willing to bite a hook with no bait out of pure devotion."Any living thing makes choices based on what it wants. It's just that some motives look plain, while others seem lofty. In truth, they all come from the same deepest desires. There's no real difference."Her tone was calm and unruffled, as still as the lake in front of them.Jovan froze for a second. He then nodded in agreement. "Sharp as always, Sis. Everything in this world is an equal exchange. No one is more righteous than anyone else.""Hey, are you two here to fish, or to teach a philosophy class? All this talk is impossible to follow. Can't you make it simpler?" Leia finally couldn't take it anymore and covered her ears.There was nothing she could do. Talking to smart people was exhausting. Miss one beat, and you were lost. Listening to them was tiring, but sayin
