"Years ago, this road was built by the Scholarship Foundation to honor the legendary figure of BC University and the goddess in the heart of countless BC University students, Renee Everheart. Apparently, the road was supposed to be called the Renee Everheart Road at first, but Renee felt that it was too high-profile, so it was named Sophora Road instead...”The college students got more and more excited as he spoke. In his narrative, Renee was like a mythical goddess."You probably don't know how amazing Renee was. The experimental group she led won numerous international physics competitions. Some of the academic papers she published in international journals even made it into the textbooks of foreign universities...""Ahem!"To Renee's surprise, she still had quite the reputation at BC University after all these years. The boy's praise of her was making her feel a bit embarrassed. She quickly stopped his gushing and said, “Alright, alright, we get it. She's incredible!""She rea
A man with a large SLR camera hanging around his neck walked towards them and said politely, "Hi, my name is Chad. I'm a popular online photographer. I've been taking pictures focusing around the theme of family recently. The sight of your family walking hand in hand just now was so heartwarming that I couldn't help snapping a few photos. I just want to ask if I can publish these photos online?”"No, you can't!" Stefan coldly refused, his icy gaze as sharp as a knife.The photographer could not help but swallow hard. He quickly said, "I'm sorry. I'll delete them now."He turned on the camera, preparing to delete all the photos he had just taken, with a pained look on his face.He lamented inwardly. The photos were so heartwarming and aesthetically pleasing. The people in them all look so incredibly good too. He snapped a dozen or so photos in a row, and each one was perfect. If he could post them on his Instagram, they would surely go viral.But now, he had to delete these masterp
It was a photo of a full moon, hanging in the dark night sky as bright as a piece of jade. It was the exact same one that the stranger sent to her that night!So Stefan really was “Mr. Moon”?!Renee was stunned.She could not understand why Stefan Hunt, the heir of a prestigious family and the CEO of a multinational company, would use a burner account to send a picture of a moon to his ex-wife in the middle of the night?While she was still stunned, Stefan took the opportunity to seize his phone back. He immediately locked it. His cold eyes glared at her with an intense pressure as he said, "Don't look at things that you shouldn't be looking at!"Renee's mind was in a mess.She already found it bizarre that Stefan would secretly take her picture. Now she found out that he had used a burner account to add her as a friend on WeChat. That was not just bizarre, it was scary!"You... are you really Mr. Moon?"Renee asked him again because she could not believe it.She could not fi
Renee's interest was piqued. She looked at Anthony expectantly, holding her chin like a student.Anthony pushed his glasses up and told her the truth, "Mr. Hunt came today to discuss with me his intention to acquire half of the management rights of BC University...""What? He wants to acquire BC University?"Renee was still emotional and felt that it was ridiculous. "BC University is one of the top public universities in the country, especially its engineering majors. It's a well-known university, even on a global scale. Stefan actually dares to mess with a public university?!"Anthony shook his head and said, "No, that’s not it, How can you call it messing with us? He's doing it so that BC University would have a brighter future. You know what it's like for public universities these days. With limited funding for scientific research, many experimental projects have not made any progress for years..."If Hunt Enterprise really acquires half the management rights of BC University,
"Sorry to keep you all waiting." Stefan wore a faint smile as he sat down beside Renee, as if they hadn't just argued. Renee glared at him, but could not do anything else since they were both guests there. Finally, she just sighed in annoyance and started eating. The atmosphere at the dining table was surprisingly warm and pleasant. Jane was nibbling a chicken drumstick, and both her hands and mouth were stained with sauce. She looked adorable. Renee's heart softened when she looked at her. She was about to take a tissue paper to wipe Jane's hands and mouth for her, but Stefan beat her to it. He gently wiped her mouth and said affectionately, "Greedy girl. Your mouth is dirty." Renee was slightly stunned as she looked at him, a strange emotion stirring in her. She had never seen him so gentle and patient before. He didn't look like the superior and aloof Stefan—he seemed quite caring now. Her anger towards him instantly faded. Jane broke into a smile as she looked up at S
"Pfft!" Renee spat out the soup in her mouth, face flushed and eyes wide. "Professor Wood, what are you saying?! It's not that easy to get pregnant! People will surely get the wrong idea if they hear that!" Sophia tilted her head and observed Renee's belly. She then frowned and said, "I get where he's coming from. Your belly does look a bit bigger now…" "Mrs. Wood, don't side with your husband!" Renee groaned, then said calmly, "I'm just too happy after getting the divorce, so I've let myself go a little. I'm not watching my weight like I did when I was still married. I never ate enough back then, and that's why I was slim!" Anthony and Sophia found her explanation reasonable. Sophia nodded and said, "That's right. If women don't watch what they eat, they can put on weight very easily." Stefan, however, was staring at her intently. Renee seemed composed now, but he had noticed her initial panic that she had quickly stifled. People always said that when one tried very hard to ex
"Stef, Ren, it's been a long time since I watched a movie. Let's go see one!" Jane chirped energetically and held their hands as they walked towards the cinema. "Umm..." Renee stole a glance at Stefan. She figured that watching a movie would be a boring activity for Stefan given his status and position… surely he would refuse Jane's request. However, he said indifferently, "I haven't watched a movie in a long time too. The new animation called Soul Travel should be nice." "You know about Soul Travel?" Renee asked immediately, her eyes lighting up. "I've been wanting to watch that movie! I heard it's good, but not many wanted to watch it, so they don't play it much. If we don't watch it now, it'll soon be out of theatres." Stefan nodded. "True. It's about saving one's soul. My Grandma Coco, which is produced by the same company, is pretty good too." "Yeah, I liked that one. I watched it when it was first released, and cried like a baby in the cinema..."Before they realise
Renee frowned and grabbed a woman who was running away. "What's going on?" "A-A crazy man kidnapped a girl in the hall on the first floor. He's a suicide bomber!" "A girl?" Renee felt sick to her stomach and quickly asked the lady, "Was the girl around five to six years old and wearing a yellow dress?" The lady looked bewildered but nodded slowly."I think so! You both should leave... Everyone in this mall will die if that bomb goes off!" After that, she hurried away, along with many others from the first floor. Renee immediately wanted to go downstairs, but Stefan stopped her. "What are you doing?" Renee looked at him desperately. "Isn't it obvious? I'm trying to save her! A madman kidnapped Jane. If I don't save her, she'll die!" Stefan pointed at the emergency exit everyone was rushing to, then said urgently, "It's too dangerous here. Go to the emergency exit with the others and leave this place." After that, he pushed past the panicked people, running towards the s
