Chapter 208

Author: Mizuki Sei
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

    The man's eyes were fierce as he snarled, "Everyone will die with me. I don't care about the consequences!" "I know you don't care about the consequences, but what about your wife and daughter? Did you ever consider what might happen to them?" Renee asked him calmly. "Didn't you hear me?! They're dead, so I want all of you to die with them!" The man shouted at her. "Heh! You're too naive. Death is not the end..." Renee shook her head, smiling as she approached him slowly. Everyone there was shocked to see her approach him. The man's body was covered with bombs, so going closer would only mean courting death! Stefan clenched his fists so tightly they turned white. He desperately wanted to carry the fearless Renee away but feared agitating the madman in front of them. His handsome face turned frighteningly cold. However, Renee appeared very relaxed as she slowly approached the man, talking to him as if they had been friends for many years. "People go to hell after they pass a

    However, Renee was much faster. She lifted her hand and forcefully hit the man's chest. The man doubled over in pain and stumbled back, and Renee managed to free herself.Everyone couldn't believe what they'd just seen."How dare you? This is your fault, girl! Now, you'll all die!" The man screamed and yanked the bomb's safety string.Everybody screamed in fear. "Watch out!" Renee was pulled aside, and was soon buried in a warm chest. Confused, she looked up and found herself in Stefan's strong arms. It was strangely comforting, like an impenetrable wall against the dangers outside. It felt like they were in an apocalypse drama… The two of them had never been so close to each other before!However, the explosion they expected never happened.A white puff of smoke appeared, signaling that the bomb had failed to explode."W-What's going on? Why didn't it explode?" The man looked at the bomb strapped to his waist in confusion. The people around him looked at each other, equally pe

    However, Leia didn't believe that Renee would have given up on Stefan. Based on their night chats a while ago, she could tell from Renee's tone that the latter was still confused about Stefan and couldn't part with him.It wasn't long ago, but now, Renee wanted to marry someone else. It was abnormal."Yes, I did…" Renee coldly looked ahead and added, "I did just now.""What?" Leia's eyes went wide, and she didn't stop questioning Renee. "What happened just now? Nothing happened!""Let me be frank with you." Renee decided to be honest with Leia since Leia insisted on getting to the bottom of it. "Justin told me something the night he saved us. Stefan informed him and asked him to come to our rescue.""I know that. And then?"Leia had heard the same story from Justin. She and Liam kept cursing Stefan for being a dirty coward all night long. It was infuriating. Stefan didn't try to save his beloved woman, but made his rival in love do so instead. It seemed he had given up his belo

    "What? You're going to meet his parents?" Leia cried in agitation when she heard that. She glared at Justin, then dragged Renee to the side to interrogate the latter."What's wrong with you, Ren? Why are you marrying someone else just after one night?" Leia pausing, finding her words odd, then corrected herself. "Oh, no! Are you going to remarry?""Justin is a good man. His grandpa was my grandpa's old comrade. Plus, his family is nice to me. And we survived this time because of the army Grandpa Baldwin gave me. I can't be ungrateful," Renee said, her tone calm and cold.Although it was ridiculous, Austin did give Renee that army as a wedding gift. She used that gift at a critical time, which meant she had accepted the Baldwin family. Naturally, she had to take her relationship with Justin to another level. "But…" Leia frowned, feeling that Renee was being impulsive. "But you were forced to use that army under that circumstance. It wasn't because you loved Justin that drove

    Liam was an unruly rich heir who loved freedom, while Amber was a pure and ignorant young woman. It seemed they were a perfect match."Why did she suddenly give you a wedding gown? Obviously, she wants to marry you. Are you sure you don't want to say anything to her before leaving?" Xavier teased Liam, trying to sound the latter out.Everyone could tell that Amber liked Liam. Besides, it seemed like Liam also fancied Amber. If they parted ways, they might never see each other again. Their romance might end with a failure. What a pity! "There's nothing to say to her." Liam purposely looked aloof. "All I want is to get the hell out of here. I don't even want to waste another second here."Then, he strode into the airport lobby. Renee quickened her pace and walked alongside him. She looked at him, feeling sorry for him. "Are you sure you're going to leave like this?""I should long be gone." Liam kept his coldness, his tone impassive. "If I don't go now, I can't leave forever.""

    The box contained a red wedding gown with exquisite embroidered dragon and phoenix patterns. The embroidery was meticulous, making the dragon and phoenix look lifelike. With such intricate details, it would take three to five months to complete."So, she was busy with this." Liam caressed the patterns, bitterness and disappointment hitting him hard. Amber was always busy these days and couldn't be found. She also didn't talk much to him. She claimed that she wanted to sew wedding clothes for herself and Mateo. Unexpectedly, she ended up giving the wedding gown to Liam instead.There was a card at the bottom of the wedding dress. Liam opened it and read Amber's note.[Liam, I only want to be your wife my whole life…but from now on, I won't marry anyone. I want to live for myself. I hope we can meet again when we're both strong and capable!]Her handwriting wasn't neat, and her grammar was wrong. Yet it showed her shyness, pureness, and firmness.Liam clenched the wedding gown t

    "Wait, Mr. Osborne!" Hailey ran to Liam and tried her best to catch her breath. Then, she said to him, "Ms. Jenkins… Ms. Jenkins, she…""What's wrong with Amber?" Liam asked nervously. His anxious and worried expression showed that he wasn't indifferent toward her after all."Take this!" Hailey handed a plain box to Liam. "Ms. Jenkins is busy today and can't send you off. This is the gift she's been preparing for a long time. She wants you to have it.""What she's busy about? Is it troublesome?" Liam was worried about Amber. If she wanted to take over Benjamin's business, she wouldn't be able to handle it since the fort was a violent place full of fights. "It's something feminine. Please don't ask about that…" Hailey obeyed Amber's instruction and didn't explain much. She waved at Liam and added, "Take care. Don't worry too much about Ms. Jenkins. She'll be fine since she's Mr. Jenkins' only daughter.""What do you mean?" Liam held the gift with worry. "Did Benjamin find fault wi

    Benjamin didn't play any tricks as he truly wanted to let them go. He had come to his senses and realized that Liam was sincere toward Amber, thus he wanted to let Liam go.Besides, someone else had instructed him to do so. It was obvious who that was.The Jenkins family would have closer cooperation with Hunt Enterprise in the coming years. Moreover, this cooperation would help them earn money easily. It would be ridiculous of him to give up those profits just to satisfy his wrath.Before leaving, Renee and the others sat in the pickup truck except for Liam. He stood at the door and kept looking around. He didn't get into the car for a long time."What's taking him so long? Why didn't he get in the car? We can't leave if Benjamin suddenly regrets it!" Leia said.She sat beside the window and lowered it, about to wave at Liam before Renee stopped her in time. "Stop urging him. It's still early. Nothing will go wrong since Benjamin agreed to let us go. You have to give Liam some

    Macsen got up angrily and pointed at Renee. "You nearly got me killed by biting me! I didn't even make you pay for that, but here you are, trying to accuse me. Do you think I won't do anything to you?" "Of course you will. You nearly got us killed," Renee sneered, glancing at the glass of mulberry wine. "So, it's logical that you poisoned the wine.""No, I didn't!" Macsen raised the glass of wine and leaned backward to gulp it down. Then, he glared at Renee. "I'm not such a petty man!"Instantly, the air grew tense. Liam, sitting on Benjamin's right, tried to keep the peace. "Okay, stop bickering. Since Mr. Jenkins held this party today, he wanted us to bury the hatchet. We don't have to take to heart what happened a few days ago. The most important thing is to keep peace and come up with a win-win situation."Benjamin nodded and clapped. "Liam knows me the best. He didn't take the stab for nothing. At least I can see that he's sincere toward me, Gem, and the fort.""Oh, gosh!

    Three days later, Liam got better and could get out of bed.Benjamin held a party to express his apology to Renee and the others.Before attending the party, Leia held Renee's hand, frightened. "Is he plotting something?"After all, they had witnessed Benjamin's craziness. He could even kill his only daughter! It seemed unlikely that this was just an ordinary party."Don't be scared. We can fight them if worse comes to worst," Justin said casually as he walked behind them. He found a spot and sat in front of them.The army Austin had promised Renee was already on guard outside of the party, hence Justin's confidence. Besides, the Baldwin family was informed beforehand to come assist them if anything went wrong.Since he had absolute power, he was fearless."You're right. We can still fight them. I'd like to see what tricks that crazy Benjamin is trying to pull." Leia said.She stopped taking things too seriously, and casually walked into the place and took her seat. Xavier, sit

    "But…" Renee insisted."This is worth it. I was able to gain Benjamin's trust and calm his anger, which in turn helped us leave. I would've done the same thing again without hesitation."Liam looked relaxed and sounded casual, as if he didn't have a close brush with death. Rather, he treated the whole thing like a game he nearly got disqualified from and in turn rewarded for. The result was worth it. He took everything as an exciting adventure rather than a life-threatening incident. "Oh, you're always so casual. What do you mean, worth it? If that knife reached your heart or the doctor wasn't skillful enough, you would've been killed. And I… I might have to watch you die just because I left things to chance!" Renee yelled.She couldn't dwell on what had happened. The memory chilled her blood, and she hated herself for being so scheming. Renee could feel herself changing. Before, she was direct, bold, straightforward, and did everything she could for the sake of justice. Now, sh
