"I'm fine." Renee was calm as she patted Stefan's arm. "But you might break my ribs if you don't get off me."At that moment, Stefan was clinging to Renee like an octopus. He had even buried his head in her neck timidly. He cleared his throat, quickly detaching from Renee as he muttered awkwardly, "I'm sorry. I forgot my manners." Putting on a poker face, he told Renee, "You're quite strong.""Yeah, I've been hitting the gym lately." Renee suppressed her smile as she observed him. "But you seem a little spooked. It's just a prop, so why were you so scared?" She'd thought he was an unaffected expert who would win this easily, but in the end, he was just a coward. In fact, he was more terrified than her! However, it felt good turning the tables and having the lady protect the man instead. "You can stay behind me if you're scared, boy. Young men like you aren't experienced, so you need strong women like us to protect you. You should be gentler, since strong women don't like fierce men…

"What do you mean?" Renee watched Stefan fiddle with the freezer, not knowing what he wanted to do."Give me the iron hook." Stefan turned around and urged Renee."Okay!" Renee handed the iron hook to Stefan.Stefan took it and groped for the spring of the lock of the freezer. With a gentle tug, he managed to pry open the freezer lock."Wow, you're even skilled in things like this?" Renee asked in admiration. "You're really an all-rounder—you can do business and even pry open locks. Even thieves would have to acknowledge you as their master!""Oh, stop it. Just tell me if you're scared, you don't have to make jokes." Stefan smiled, realizing she became chatty when she was scared. It was rather… cute. "I'm going to open the freezer now, and there might be something horrible inside. Do you want to step away?" Stefan asked carefully."No way!" Renee said defiantly, and walked over. "Don't underestimate me! I want to see what's inside." Then, before Stefan could do anything, she reac

Renee turned around and looked at the corpse in the freezer. She said firmly, "I guess we have to check the corpse to find out how Jayla died.""You're saying..." Stefan paused, his palms growing sweaty. "Are we going to do an autopsy on her?" "No, we don't have to do that. But we can look around and see if we can find any clues." Renee flexed her fingers and stretched her legs enthusiastically. "Let's do it. I think we can win this!""Okay!" Stefan nodded and started inspecting Jayla's body with Renee. Jayla's body was made of a silicone material that looked like skin, and there were many clues about Jayla's death on the body."Look at her neck..." Renee immediately noticed some bruises around Jayla's neck. "Do you think someone strangled her?" "Not necessarily!" Stefan added thoughtfully, "She might have struggled before she died. Someone gripped her neck and left those bruises. This place is really odd..." While talking, he solemnly pointed at the place between the corpse's l

The temperature in the room suddenly dropped."It's too crowded here. We don't need you around." Stefan glared at them, clearly wishing he could disintegrate them with his gaze.Slowly, Justin let go of Renee and looked at Stefan coolly. "You're right. It is pretty crowded here, so you should leave, Mr. Hunt. After all, escape rooms are more suitable for couples.""Couple?" Stefan scoffed disdainfully. "Can you two even call yourselves that?" Xavier had told him that Renee and Justin were just dating, trying to see how things would go. Technically, they were not a couple yet, so Stefan felt confident enough to ask."We…" For a moment, Justin was speechless. He didn't know how to argue since he didn't know what his current relationship with Renee was. He wanted to say they were a couple, but Renee hadn't confirmed it yet. However, they had gone on dates, held hands, and hugged… So could they be considered friends? At the end of the day, the decision was Renee's."Phoenix, why don't

Justin wanted Stefan to hear Renee acknowledge their relationship. Right now, it looked like Stefan wasn't threatened because he felt Renee and Justin were not deeply in love with each other."That's enough, Haze. Stop making a scene. Why do you always insist on winning like a kid?" Renee gripped Justin's ear and rebuked him helplessly. "There's no need to get affected by insignificant people, okay?" "Okay, I'll listen to you," Justin said obediently, then shot Stefan a triumphant smirk. "I'll listen to whatever my baby says.""Mm, that's good!" Renee touched his head and smiled tenderly. Although Haze could sometimes be playful, he would listen when he had to. Renee could easily control him, which she was very satisfied with.Jeffrey nodded in approval. "Renee, you behave like a kindergarten teacher."Renee looked proud of herself as she added, "Yeah, and you're my student too."The atmosphere became less tense… but Stefan's expression didn't get better."Okay, tell us what cl

"What? Did she use the iron hook to…" Renee looked horrified, and asked in disbelief, "How is that possible? Only you could come up with such a crazy idea!""Actually it's possible." Justin observed Jayla's corpse and was shocked at the sight of flesh between her legs. "I've read about such a thing in a book called Amenia Horror Stories. The heroine did it because she didn't want to give birth to the villain's child. I guess whoever came up with this theme was inspired by that scene.""How could there be such a thing?" Renee's eyes grew wide in shock. She didn't know how someone could think of something so terrible."We'll know if it's true or not once we test the composition of the bloodstain on the iron hook and the pool of flesh. If they're a match, then the theory is confirmed." While talking, Stefan walked around the room in search of something."What are you looking for?" Renee asked. "If our guess is right, there has to be equipment somewhere to test it. If it isn't here,

At that moment, the speaker sounded again. "Congratulations, players—you've won the game! Please come to the registration counter to get your mystery gift!""Yeah, we did it! We're so smart!" Leia held Xavier's hand and jumped up and down happily.Renee, however, still looked unsatisfied. "Is that all?" Although they had won the game, she found the plot too unrefined. The ending was too abrupt."You didn't enjoy yourself?" Justin smiled at Renee fondly and said, "Why don't we come again another day? They have other themes that are pretty interesting too.""Forget it, I won't come again. Maybe I'm getting old… I'm not suited for things like this." Renee chuckled."Well, what should we do next time then?" Justin started planning their next date. After some contemplation, he suggested, "Why don't we go to the forest for a paintball game?" "That's not suitable for her either," Stefan abruptly commented from behind them.Renee turned around and glanced at Stefan disdainfully, then g

"Excuse me?" Stefan frowned and looked at Justin incredulously. Justin stood there with his mouth agape like a goldfish, gaze moving from Stefan to the receptionist. Everyone was stunned into silence."Pfft! Haha!" Leia burst out laughing, bending over and holding her stomach. "Good call—I think they're a perfect match given their similarities and history.""Leia!" Stefan hissed threateningly, shooting Leia a vicious glare. If looks could kill, Leia would be dead by now."Oh, how scary. I think he's scarier than those characters earlier. He's looking at me like he wants to kill me," Leia hurriedly hid behind Xavier and said dramatically. "Xavier, the day has finally come to choose between your buddy and me—who will you side with if he wants to kill me?"Renee walked to Leia and hugged her, then patted her head dotingly. "Don't worry, I won't let anyone harm you. If anything happens to you, I'll avenge you, okay?" "I knew you always treat me well! These useless men are just tempor

Francine went berserk again and gripped Sophia's neck. "I'm going to count to three! Get my grandkids here! I'm going to take them home! If not, I'll break your neck!" she yelled. She couldn't stop Renee from marrying someone else, but she couldn't tolerate her two grandchildren relying on others' charity like Renee.It wasn't only about her dignity, but more about the children's growth and mental health. She couldn't be careless."You're out of your mind! Drive them out of here!"Sophia was a decent woman who couldn't allow herself to go berserk. Although she had a glib tongue, she found herself unable to handle a figure like Francine. Francine was never too harsh and would only make a scene. But now, she was out of control and was screaming nonstop. "Talk it out with them. Don't use violence. We're parents. It's humiliating to be violent," Alexander interrupted.Alexander tried to make Francine calm down and behave herself. Even so, he didn't act accordingly and pushed Ja

Francine's obvious provocation made others draw in a cold breath, let alone Justin's parents.No wonder she was one of the Four Princesses of Beach City. She was much too impulsive. Justin's parents looked very hideous. However, Sophia wasn't so soft. After taking a few deep breaths, she faced Francine with the same fake smile. "Don't worry. I'll take Adie and Abby back home. Since Ren is marrying Justin, my family will treat the kids as ours. We'll be their grandparents. In a few years, my son and Ren will have more kids to be their siblings. Then, we'll be one family!""What? Do you want to take the kids back home?" Fury instantly gripped Francine. She ignored all decency and demanded fiercely, "What do you want to do to my grandkids? They're still young! How could you target them?" "You must be mistaken. Ren is going to be a part of my family, so naturally, her kids are going to come with her. I'm sure there isn't anything wrong with that." Sophia snorted. "You're their bi

Leia couldn't understand it. Both Renee and Stefan once loved each other passionately. They had soldiered through a lot of difficulties. But when everything became better, they stopped seeing each other. Such separation brought a fatal blow to her views on love. Suddenly, she found herself too timid to give up her heart. After all, it was nothing. People could break up with each other easily."No wonder Xavier refused to come. If he was here, I would have hated him because of Stefan. I'd beat the crap out of him!" Leia was furious, but she couldn't find someone to vent her anger on.The Stuart family was invited to the party too, but Xavier refused to come. He claimed that he would have betrayed Stefan if he had come to the party.However, Stefan was the greatest betrayal of his romance since he remained silent and indifferent. While Leia was still angry, everyone in the hall suddenly fell silent. They stretched their heads to look at the entrance of the hall."The Hunt famil

"I… I don't know what you're talking about," Liam muttered guiltily, avoiding Leia's scrutinizing gaze. "You must know what I'm talking about!" Leia refused to let Liam go and went straight to the point. "Look! Because of such a bind, you probably fell in love with Amber, who isn't related to you. Why can't Ren fall in love with Justin after spending a long time with him?""So, what's your point?" Liam didn't refute Leia. He was curious about what she was trying to say. Leia reasonably explained her opinion, "I'm trying to tell you that things might not be as bad as you imagine. Even if you take Ren away and stop this ceremony, things might not be better either."She was too timid to tell Liam that she regarded Renee and Justin's marriage in a favorable light because she found them similar. Similar people could at least lead a stable life though it might not be very passionate and exciting.After leading a wandering life for such a long time, Renee needed steady happiness. It

Liam was impressed while looking at Justin's calm expression. He had always thought that Justin was cunning and full of schemes. He was even worried that Justin might plot against Renee in the future.However, Justin was quite open and generous. He was considering things from Renee's angle. He could be Renee's haven, but if he stepped down, he could willingly grant Renee's wish to be with the one she loved. It seemed that Justin was selfless, and Liam felt that he was worse than Justin. No wonder Renee would choose to spend the rest of her life with Justin. It seemed like he was a reliable man.Justin pocketed his hands and asked casually, "Is there any other problem now?""Not at the moment." Liam frowned in defeat. Since Justin had made such a big compromise, he would seem like a fool if he was too arrogant and refused to give up. A long sigh escaped him as he let go of Renee's hand, but he was still hopeful. He boasted to Justin, "Wait and see! I'll make Stefan appear.""Go

"Let go of her!" Justin turned cold and grabbed Renee's other hand. He said darkly to Liam, "You don't have the right to take her with you!""Hmph! I don't have the right to take her with me? Well, you don't have the right to marry her. I must take her with me today. Worst comes to worst, I'll fight your family!"Though he was too weak to fight the powerful Baldwin family, Liam was never a coward. He would fight the whole world alone for the sake of Renee's happy and stable life."Calm down…"In comparison, Justin was calmer. He was probably more confident since it was his territory and he could affirm Renee would not leave with Liam. He started mocking Liam. "I'm not the kind of person who will force others to do things they refuse to do. If Ren wants to leave, I'll let her go even if my family disowns me. But I know that she won't leave. At the very least, she won't leave with you.""What do you mean?" Liam could tell that Justin was mocking him, and it annoyed him. "Why are

Liam felt that his situation at the fort was almost the same as Renee's current situation. He had thought that the marriage was just for show. If he was unhappy, he could get a divorce. Even then, things were not that easy when he wanted to get out of that mess. If Amber had not protected him, Benjamin would have long gotten him killed. He knew better than anyone else how unfair it was for the other party when one tolerated and went through with the marriage.Amber was naive and was willing to be treated unfairly, but Justin was no fool. He would not be able to take it if it lasted for a long time. It was easy to imagine what Renee would face when Justin stopped taking her side."Let's go! I'm not afraid. You don't have to be afraid, either." Liam made up his mind to support Renee, who was standing behind him.Renee bit her lips and started to waver; not because she did not want to be with Justin, but simply because she was not confident in herself. She was afraid she would neve

"Liam, what are you doing?" Leia looked at Liam, unable to understand his sudden excitement."I'm going to meet Austin or Justin. I want them to cancel this engagement ceremony." Liam held Renee's wrist and tried to drag her out of the suite.He was certain Renee didn't want to marry Justin, so it was very likely that she would regret it in the future. It would be hard to settle if she regretted it after the engagement party. Liam felt that he had to try his best to put everything under control while he still could. Feeling helpless, Leia complained, "Stop making a scene… This is Ren's marriage. You can't make all this fuss!""You don't know. I'm doing this for her. I want the best for her." Liam knew the consequences of resisting Austin, given the man's position. He was also ready to be punished by them. Even though he would be beaten up vigorously, he would not hesitate as long as he could stop the ceremony and help Renee avoid such risks. "If you want the best for her, just

Leia felt so awkward that she wanted to run away. "Hey, can you stop flattering yourself? You haven't settled your messy romance, so please don't get Ren involved. You shouldn't joke like that!"Similarly, Liam found his joke impudent and admitted to his mistake. "Yeah, I was wrong. Don't take my joke seriously."Both Renee and Leia were amused. It helped relieve their tension. "But have you thought it through? After this ceremony, you'll be a part of the Baldwin family. You can't regret it by then," Liam said; he was worried about Renee. Everyone knew the Baldwin family's style. They had such a grand ceremony today. If anything went wrong, the Everheart family might be ruined for the second time. Although nobody knew who would win the battle, the trouble could be avoided. Liam was clueless as to why Renee wanted to take such a risk."Yes, I have." Renee nodded and added firmly, "I'd thought it through the moment I boarded the plane with Justin to fly here."It was the last c
