Chapter 2048

مؤلف: Mizuki Sei
Timothy loomed over Stefan, his tone solemn. "Don't just sit there! Give me your hand. I'll teach you a lesson!"

Stefan was silent as he put the cutlery down. He extended his hand, not a trace of resistance in him. "It's all my fault. Punish me as you see fit, Grandpa."

Renee was flabbergasted. She wondered why Stefan was so submissive, even more so than Adie when the boy was punished. Stefan could easily defend himself; in fact, he could simply leave. Timothy wouldn't be able to do a thing to

    Renee's eyes gradually turned red. She leaned against Quinton's shoulder, and her voice trembled with emotion. "Quinton, I really don't know what to do anymore.""Then don't make a decision yet."Quinton gently patted her back. "We didn't come here today to force you to choose. I've already waited all these years. Waiting a little longer won't make a difference."Renee was about to say something when the sound of a car engine suddenly came from outside the living room.The two of them looked out the window at the same time.In the darkness, a black sedan slowly drove into the courtyard. The headlights illuminated the stone path in front of the house."They're back."Quinton's voice instantly turned cold.Renee subconsciously clenched her fists, and her heartbeat sped up.After spending the entire day waiting, Alexander and Francine had finally returned."Quinton."Renee instinctively grabbed Quinton's arm.A strange panic rose inside her. Although she had already mentally

    Timothy smiled kindly and waved. "It's still early. Why would I rest? Your brother and I were having a great conversation.""There's nothing to talk about. My brother just says whatever comes to mind. He doesn't always think things through, so don't take his words seriously."Renee gave Asher a look.Worried about Timothy's health, Asher immediately cooperated and stepped forward to support him. "Sir, have you forgotten? It's time for your blood pressure medication. After that, you need to lie down and rest. You can come back and talk to them after you've rested enough.""Oh, right. I guess it is time for my medicine."Timothy rubbed his temples and sighed. "You two can stay here for a while. After I take my medicine and rest up, I'll come back and talk with you again."There was silence.Quinton stood there with little expression on his face. He neither agreed nor objected.At that moment, there was a storm of anger building inside him. If Renee had not been there, he might

    "Make sure justice is done?" Quinton asked with a scoff.When Quinton heard what Timothy said earlier, he felt mixed emotions.By all accounts, he should have been touched. After living this long, there were only a handful of people in the world who would protect him like this.But when he thought about it carefully, the whole thing felt deeply ironic.How could the person who had caused the harm say he wanted to stand up for the victim?"Of course."Timothy had no idea where the anger and resentment in Quinton's eyes came from. All he knew was that Quinton must have suffered a lot, and his heart truly ached for Quinton."In my eyes, you're just like Ren. You're both the grandchildren of someone I once knew, and you're no different from my own grandchildren. Back then, when Maurice was on his deathbed, he entrusted Ren to me. I promised him that even if it cost me my own life, I would protect Ren. If it were you, I would've done the same."When people reached the twilight of th

    Meanwhile, the conversation between Quinton and Timothy turned out to be surprisingly cordial.Quinton had originally intended to confront Timothy about the truth surrounding his family history, but after talking for a while, he realized Timothy genuinely knew nothing about any of it.Timothy's curiosity, concern, and affection toward the grandson of an old friend were sincere. Without realizing it, Quinton lowered his guard."Come here. I'll show you some photos of Maurice, your grandfather, and me, as well as our comrades during the war."Timothy leaned on his cane and slowly shuffled across the study. He opened the most treasured drawer in the room and carefully removed an old-fashioned photo album. Page by page, he flipped through it.Ever since retiring from Hunt Enterprise, Timothy had developed few hobbies. He spent most of his days in the study, reading books, admiring paintings, and looking through these yellowed photos. They allowed him to revisit a past that was gone bu

    "So that's what it was."After hearing Stefan's confession, Renee felt like a puppet with its strings cut. The strength drained out of her. She lowered the fruit knife and sank onto the couch in silence."I'm sorry. I never wanted to hurt you, but I didn't want you to suffer or be forced into an impossible situation either."Stefan's eyes held more sorrow and helplessness than anyone should have to bear. The weight of it had nearly crushed him.He no longer knew how to save either himself or Renee from the vortex that had swallowed them both.Renee let out a bitter laugh."So you were afraid I'd get hurt, and your solution was to hurt me in an even crueler way? Am I supposed to be touched or angry?"She lifted her head. Her eyes were just as full of sadness. The tears glistening there refused to fall and were being held back by sheer stubbornness.As the one seeking justice, she refused to shed another tear for the man in front of her."Yeah. I was an idiot. I chose the worst

    Stefan looked at Renee as if he had a lot to say, but in the end, he said nothing and shook his head instead. "Nothing much.""Nothing much? Then why are you acting like the victim when my brother is the real victim?"Renee clenched her fists. The same anger Quinton had carried for years now surged through her as well."Because all of this means you and I can never be together. Doesn't that make me a victim too?" Stefan asked solemnly.Renee fell silent.She was stunned for a moment. That wasn't the answer she had expected.On the surface, it made sense, and yet it didn't.Something about what he said felt incomplete. It was as if he were still hiding something."Do you really think that's the only reason you feel this way?" Renee asked before clenching her fists.She wanted to dig deeper and uncover what he was truly thinking, but it didn't matter anymore, especially not with the relationship they had now."Am I wrong? Do you think we can go back to the way we were? Could yo

    Renee felt guilty; she knew it must be boring for Leia to take care of her.That, and she wanted to roughly familiarize herself with the fort. If she fell out with Benjamin, she could prepare beforehand and come up with possible countermeasures. As Renee and Leia exited the room, they realized how la

    Liam looked at Amber, and sighed helplessly. He found himself owing her a lot, and thus deliberately avoided having much to do with her. He hoped she could see how bad he was, and willingly cancel their marriage.Yet, she foolishly and stubbornly desired him. She would rather turn hostile toward her

    Because of Liam's declaration, he and Mateo failed to reach a consensus.Mateo's gaze grew colder and more sinister, and he glared fiercely at Liam. "Fine. There's nothing to talk about between us.""No, you're wrong." Liam calmly swayed the wine glass. "You can get down on your knees and say sorr

    Stefan's words brought silence to the two of them.Stunned, Renee moved her lips. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she decided against it. "Mrs. Hunt was right. I should leave. If not, things will get more troublesome when Grandpa wakes up," she finally said. From Stefan's words, there wa
