Author: Mizuki Sei
“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. R

    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

    Renee directed a reassuring smile at the secretary. “Don’t worry, I’ll be able to handle it”After that, she lifted her chin and strode confidently into Stefan’s office. Just as she expected, she found the little mistress, Briar, in there.The woman was sobbing in Stefan’s arms but quickly moved away as soon as she saw Renee enter the office as if she had been caught red-handed doing something bad.“Ms. Everheart, please don’t misunderstand, we were just…”“Save it.” Renee put up her hand. Turning to Stefan, she said, “Sorry for interrupting your date, Mr. Hunt, but I’m here for the divorce settlement. I’ll leave once I’ve obtained your signature.”Stefan rested his arms on his desk and without a hint of emotion on his face, he responded, “Oh that… do you really need it in such a hurry?”‘What the hell is he saying?’ Renee thought as she suppressed the urge to beat him up. Through gritted teeth, she growled, “What do you think?!”“There’s still ten days till we are legally div

    Despite being married for four years, they rarely stood this close to each other. The air between them abruptly rose in temperature.Renee’s face was bright red as she tried her best to regulate her breathing. “Yeah, so I hope you can give us your blessing, Mr. Hunt. I’ve given you my blessing after all.”Stefan’s eyes darkened, huffing coldly. “Who is it? Is it Geronimo’s youngest son? If I remember correctly, that guy’s three years younger than you. You know that, right?”His words alone were enough to upset Renee. ‘What? Is he implying that I’m too old? Then why can other men date girls who are decades younger than them, but women can’t date someone just a couple of years younger?“And what about it? Why does it matter to you? Besides… don’t you know that a lot of younger guys prefer mature women now? Oh, how hard it was to resist his adorable efforts when he was pursuing me.”“I don’t care if you’re dating a younger guy, but Liam Osborne is off-limits.” Stefan narrowed his eye

    “Please darling, we’ve been married for four years, you know? Even if you did cheat on me… I forgive you, because… my love for you is true… Please… just don’t be so cruel to me…“I wasn’t asking for much either, I just wanted the least valuable law firm that you own. You can’t just divorce me and leave me out on the streets to starve, right? I’ll die!“I’ll give you my blessing… I’ll leave quietly for your sake! I won’t bother you at all, I just want you to be happy!”Renee’s acting was immaculate. Tears were flowing down her cheeks and she damsel in distress. Riled up by her performance, the viewers left countless comments as the stream continued.[What a jerk! Stefan Hunt really is as cruel as they say! How inhumane can he be?!][Men like him should rot in hell! She just wanted a law firm, that’s pocket change for him!][This bastard and his mistress should burn in hell!][I’m unfollowing them! Men are all the same! What a waste of good looks!]Stefan was visibly enraged at t

    “Mr. Hunt, calm down! Leave Mrs. Hunt alone!”“You know that domestic abuse is a crime, right? Mrs. Hunt is such a great person! She loves you so much too! How could you ever bring yourself to hit her!?”“We’ll quit our jobs if you dare to hit her one more time! And we’ll file a lawsuit against you for the abuse you’ve put her through!”These people were employees of Hunt Enterprise, specifically the ones Renee handed her lunchboxes in secret to. Looks like the few extra snacks Renee gave them finally paid off.At the time, Stefan and Renee were still in a rather… inconvenient position.Looking from afar, it seemed that Stefan was forcing himself on Renee, using his tall figure as an advantage to her feeble body. To an outsider, it was truly an infuriating sight.Stefan’s actions had caused an uproar. Even his most trusted assistant, Elijah, was on Renee’s side this time.“Mr. Hunt, I have to be real with you here.“Mrs. Hunt is a great person. You should know that. For the pas

    "Oh, please!" Leia rolled her eyes at Xavier; her gesture was far from romantic. "We haven't been together that long. Plus, you dated Shirley for a long time. You were famous in the entire Beach City over how hard you worked to win her over. She made you fall head over heels for her. But you've never made such a big scene when you're dating me. People might even assume that you're single!""Why did you bring up Shirley again?" Xavier held his forehead helplessly. The scariest thing for a man was having his girlfriend repeatedly mention his ex. No matter what the man said, it would always end up in a fight."Why, can't I bring her up?" Leia snapped. Like a lot of women, Leia yearned to travel back in time and replace all the time Xavier had with his ex-girlfriend. She said jealously, "You can't forget about her, so you're afraid of me mentioning her. You're worried you might get exposed when I mention her.""No!" Xavier became impatient, his face looking awful. "I have many

    "How silly!" Xavier felt sorry for Leia when he heard her words. He hugged her from behind and whispered, "I feel the same about Renee like you do. I admire her and think she's perfect, but I don't love her the way a man does.""Really?" Leia was surprised. She found it unbelievable, as she had always thought that Xavier loved Renee.She always felt that he was a man with great taste. His love for Renee was unrequited, so he kept a special spot for her in his heart. Since she was aware of that, she always avoided that topic and never asked him about Renee. If she did, he would weigh their positions in his heart. Leia felt that she had no right to ask about that since the answer was obvious."Of course!" Xavier pinched Leia's cheeks and smiled. "Men's love can be divided into many types, but there's only one kind of love for women. I love you like a man loves a woman. Do you understand?"Leia's heart started racing. She felt flattered, but she bit her lips carefully and asked, "

    Leia quickly wiped away her tears and acted tough. "I'm crazy now. You shouldn't talk to me.""So?" Xavier calmly walked to Leia and spoiled her as if she were a disobedient child. He doted on her. "It's not the first day you act crazily. Plus, it's not the first time I've found you like this. It's not bad, either. You look pretty cute."Leia turned around and glared at him in confusion. Goosebumps spread across her skin. "Xavier, act normal. When did I act crazily?" "You're not always normal when you're with me. Whenever I said something wrong, you went mad. You'd go mad whenever I talked to any woman, too. Isn't that crazy enough?" Xavier spread his hands, sounding helpless. Previously, he had no idea that the seemingly noisy and careless young lady of the Osborne family would be so sensitive. She cared about details very much, especially ones about him with other women.Their arguments weren't about serious issues. Rather, it was all because of her jealousy. She would go mad

    Forsty silence overcame everyone. Everyone was full of complicated emotions."I need some fresh air," Leia said coldly, rising. She silently walked past Renee and went to a deserted corner.She knew she was being impudent, and that she should never blame Renee or get jealous for no reason.However, she was exhausted after so much torture these days. She almost had a mental breakdown, and she couldn't think straight. She just wanted to see Liam safe. She couldn't care about anything else."Lei…" Renee wanted to run after Leia, but Xavier stopped her."I'll be with her. You guys should get some rest." Xavier sighed. He gave Renee and Justin a profound look before he quickly caught up with Leia.Renee flexed her fingers as she watched their backs. She trembled slightly, growing teary. "I knew it! Lei's mad at me. Even I think I'm a scumbag, let alone her… It would be better if I stopped Liam. I was selfish!""It wasn't your fault!" Justin wanted to hug Renee, but he thought it migh

    Leia was leaning into Xavier's arms and trembling nervously.Renee paced back and forth at the door, looking guilty. "It's all my fault!" She flexed her fingers and bit the back of her fist, filled with reproach."It has nothing to do with you. Stop blaming yourself." Justin patted her shoulder, hoping to help her relax a bit. "You aren't a superwoman. You can't do everything well. Plus, it's hard for us to do anything under this circumstance. It's hard to control.""No, I knew that Benjamin didn't want to kill Amber. He just wanted to test Mateo and Liam…"Renee was teary as she reflected on what had happened. She felt that she could have stopped that if she was more sensitive and active."I guessed that Mateo would attack Amber and that Liam might resist, but I didn't expect him to use his body to block the knife. Is this some kind of melodramatic movie? I taught him so many self-defense techniques. Why was he so dumb? If I stopped it earlier, this would never have happened!"R

    "No!"Unexpectedly, the seemingly desperate Mateo who insisted that he couldn't do it actually tried to stab Amber.At that critical moment, Liam roared and subconsciously stood in front of Amber. The sharp knife pierced his heart. For a moment, blood gushed out. "Liam!" Amber's eyes widened as her mind went blank. She watched him fall in front of her though he was initially hugging her."Liam!" Both Leia and Xavier's car arrived later than the others. When Leia got out of the car, she witnessed that scene and almost blacked out."Be careful!" Xavier held her in a hurry, anxious for her. He couldn't believe what he had seen."Liam!" Renee rushed over immediately. She inspected Liam's chest and tried to stop the bleeding for him."I'm going to kill you!" Leia went berserk. She staggered toward Mateo and pounced on him, trying to strangle him."I… I didn't mean it…" When Mateo saw the knife in Liam's chest, he instantly regained his wits. He kept shaking his head and retreating.

    "None of you did anything wrong," Benjamin said icily, "but I want to know your stand. If you kill her, you don't have any worry. I'll know you're someone who can do something big."If you can't do it, it means that you aren't suited to take over my position because your sentiments will get in the way sooner or later. They'll make you an indecisive coward!""But I…" Mateo held the shiny knife and bent forward. He looked at Benjamin and Amber, then hung his head in defeat. "I can't do that.""What can't you do?" Benjamin narrowed his eyes and looked at the collapsed Mateo coldly."I can't kill Gem…" Mateo staggered and sobbed. "I grew up with her. She's kind and delicate. I'd long sworn to protect her my whole life. I can't watch her get hurt! But now, you're asking me to kill her. I can't do it… I'd rather kill myself!""Hmph! You can't even do that. If someone catches her and threatens you to betray me one day, you'll do that without hesitation. So, my worry is logical," Benjamin

    "Is it…not serious?" Justin looked at Benjamin, who had gone berserk. He said helplessly, "Don't you think he's as crazy as Macsen? These people can do anything if they're crazy! He doesn't even want his daughter. I think he might kill all of us!""I don't think so." Renee was quite calm. "He isn't a fool even though he's crazy. It won't do him any good if he kills us.""Fine. You're calm."Justin sighed and said carefully, "You turned down my suggestion to ask for assistance. It's not because you're confident that we can escape. You just don't want to meet Stefan, do you?" He felt that he knew Renee—she acted tough and indifferent, but she cared about that very much. She would rather fight Benjamin with a slim chance to win instead of owning Stefan a favor. It meant that she had yet to forget about him. "Yes, I don't want to meet him, especially in such a way," Renee confessed, flexing her fingers. She smiled helplessly and added, "I owe him a great deal. It's best if we don'

    "What?! Master, how could you?" Mateo looked at Benjamin in disbelief. He didn't expect Benjamin to say that."What? Are you going to say no?" Benjamin looked at Mateo condescendingly with a hollow smile. "I know you want my position. At first, I tried to choose between you and Liam. I wanted to see which of you could win my daughter's heart."Then, I figured something out. Women are always too passionate. They'd cause delays and might fall for the wrong guy. The business I worked so hard for my whole life would end up in the traitor's hand. I might as well get rid of her to stop wasting my time and effort."It sounded like Amber had broken Benjamin's heart, so he decided to get rid of that annoying daughter of his.That kind of idea might sound illogical to other fathers, but it was reasonable for Benjamin since he was already a crazy demon who had killed many people.Mateo swallowed and said shakily, "Master, Gem's your most beloved daughter. It's okay if you punish her if you'r
