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

    Stefan frowned and asked solemnly, "Aren't you a top hacker? Hack into this hospital's inpatient system. Then, we'll know where she is.""Yes, you're right." Still, Justin wanted to challenge Stefan. He said indifferently, "But you're Jovan's cousin. It's more convenient for you to make a call instead of me hacking into their system."Yes, Justin could hack into their system, but calling Jovan would be quicker. And what they needed the most was time."He and I…" Stefan sneered, flexing his fingers. "The fact we didn't kill each other is considered peaceful. He's not as obedient as you think.""You'll know by calling him."Justin had heard about the complicated internal fights of the Hunt family, but he felt that Stefan was exaggerating."Jovan is a Hunt no matter what. Plus, he's still working at Hunt Enterprise. Just call him," Justin said. "Fine." Stefan found Justin logical. His private grudges with Jovan were not important because finding Renee immediately was the most impo

    Both Stefan and Justin arrived at Grace Hospital quickly. However, Stefan suddenly stopped before he entered the hospital. He looked at Justin curiously."Let's go! It's urgent. Stop standing here!"Justin hurriedly ran. When he turned around, he found that Stefan had not caught up with him. Confused, he asked Stefan, "Something is puzzling me. Don't you want me to stop seeing her? Why did you let me come with you?" Stefan narrowed his eyes and interrogated Justin suspiciously, "Did you lie to me? Or are you plotting something?" "That's nonsense! Don't take me as you. I'm not full of schemes like you!" Justin sounded disdainful. In comparison to Stefan, Justin was not full of schemes. He also looked down upon Stefan since the latter was always vigilant.Justin answered honestly, "Yeah, I don't want you to meet her ever, but I'm sure she wants to see you if she's in danger. Yes, I hate you—but I want her to be happy." He guessed that Renee must be in a serious state since Jov

    "Uh…" After some contemplation, Elijah nodded. "I know what to do, Mr. Hunt. It looks like you can see far beyond the current situation. Just leave this to me.""Of course, the most important thing is to have fun."Stefan remained calm; he didn't feel like he had stepped over the line. He merely wanted Justin to learn about the cruelty of the world since Justin was always being protected so well. Whenever he did something wrong, he had to pay a price for it.Besides, Stefan merely did it for his aunt, who had taken the gunshot for nothing. When they reached a consensus, Justin came to meet Stefan. "Hey…" After a pause, he said with dissatisfaction and helplessness, "Would you like to go with me?"Stefan raised his brows in confusion."I mean, do you want to visit Phoenix with me?" Justin sighed. He looked naive, like a college student, as he confessed, "I found Jovan. I don't know why he's so good at countersurveillance. After exiting the emergency room, he transferred her to

    "So, what do you want to do?" Stefan asked emotionlessly. He kept watching Nora, who was lying unconscious in the ward."At the very least, we have to teach the Baldwin family a lesson and make the public aware of your family's power as the head of The Great Eight of Beach City. It's not just about venting anger, but more about which side the various great families will take. It concerns the future of your family, too. We can't take it lightly!"Elijah could not hide his indignation. As Stefan's assistant, he was no longer merely an ordinary employee. He was loyal to Stefan and the Hunt family. He couldn't bear to see Stefan suffer any injustice or watch the Hunt family get humiliated. If Stefan hadn't stopped him, he would have gathered all the manpower to fight the Baldwins. Although he had fought Cadmus and Tiger, he had yet to defeat them. He tried to figure out a way to make a counterattack, his face shadowed in gloom.Stefan turned and calmly looked at Elijah. "How shoul

    When Justin was willing to send them on an errand again, Cadmus was eager to express his loyalty."No, you don't have to risk your lives for me. That's bloody and horrible. All you need to do is find someone for me." After a pause, Justin added, "Jovan Hunt, Stefan's younger cousin." Cadmus clenched his fists and said fiercely, "It's another Hunt! Old Master Baldwin is right. The Hunt family is full of bad people. If we knew, we shouldn't have dismantled the bombs in Hunt Enterprise. The Hunt family has strengthened their security system now. It's hard to set up bombs there if we want to." Justin felt a headache when he heard Cadmus babbling. He rubbed his temples, and said tiredly, "Stop. We don't have to blow up Hunt Enterprise. I just want to find him. Do you get me? Find him. That's enough!"He stressed his intention of locating Jovan as if he were giving a simple and clear order to robots. Most of the time, Cadmus and Tiger were like AI. Real robots were probably more obedie

    "Uh…" The nurse felt like she was put in a difficult position. She hesitated and could not speak for a long time.Justin found something wrong and demanded coldly, "Is it that hard to answer this question?""It's related to the patient's privacy. I can't tell you about it casually."Helpless, the nurse tried to excuse herself by using the same excuse she had used on Stefan a while back."Privacy?" Justin sneered. "I even barged into the surgery room. Stop using that excuse on me. If I can't get the answer I want, I'll make this hospital the headlights of the news soon.""I don't know. Please stop forcing me." The nurse found her work too difficult. She always ran into tycoons whom she couldn't afford to offend. She had no way to do things right."It looks like there's something wrong here."Justin began to feel that the nurse must have been warned by someone to remain secretive. His eyes flashed fiercely, and he glanced at Cadmus and Tiger.They walked over just as fiercely, an

    People stayed away from Justin. The door of the emergency room was still closed, and it was unknown if there was anyone in it. Someone secretly informed the front desk, no longer able to take such a scene. Shortly after, an attending doctor rushed there."What are you doing, sir? We can talk things out. Stop affecting other patients here!"The nurse on duty was frightened by Justin, but she had to brace herself to stop him."What am I doing?" Justin cracked a crazy and twisted smile. He looked at the attending nurse coldly. "Of course, I'm going to knock this door down!""No, you can't do that!" the nurse said nervously. "The doctor is still trying to save the patient in there. You'll disturb them!" "The lamp is turned off. I'm sure the rescue is over. Stop lying to me!" Justin was fine with being shameless. He urged again, "If you don't open the door for me, I'll use a rougher way to do it! We'll see about that."He had yet to say what he would do before Cadmus and Tiger st

    "What did you say?" Justin's eyes widened abruptly as he looked at Stefan in disbelief. He thought he had heard wrong, and asked Stefan again."Jovan is in the neighboring emergency room. You can get the answer you want right away," Stefan explained calmly.The man Justin racked his brain and tried his best to find was that easy to find!"Jovan is in the emergency room?" Justin tried his best to take in that information. At first, he found it incredulous. He interrogated the calm Stefan, "What is he doing there? Did Phoenix get hurt? Why can you remain this calm?" "What do you want me to do, then?" Stefan looked at Justin coldly and mocked, "Do you want me to barge into the emergency room and beat him up? Or do you want me to take her away?" "Of course not!" Justin made a no gesture and hurriedly added, "If Jovan is there, leave it to me. You don't have to do anything. It's best if you get far away."Unless it concerned Renee, Justin was strong and fearless. He wasn't conf

    "I think we've got to find your crazy cousin if we want to find Phoenix." Justin was confident that Renee must be in Jovan's hands. He was eager to confront Jovan.After all, Justin had long heard about the many crazy things Jovan had done. If he had kidnapped Renee, she wouldn't be in good condition. "That's easy." Stefan pocketed his hands calmly. Compared to Justin, he looked unconcerned."Do you know where he is?" Justin looked at Stefan suspiciously and criticized, "You're acting like an outsider. You don't care about Phoenix's location at all. Are you a heartless scumbag like she said? Do you no longer love her?" Justin was excited about his engagement with Renee, and was agitated when she suddenly went missing during the ceremony. He was either so furious that he wanted to fight Stefan, or too worried to eat and wanted to search all over Beach City. However, Stefan remained unresponsive. He was indifferent, even if Renee was about to get engaged to another man. Though
