Chapter 2320

Author: Mizuki Sei
Before leaving, Justin went to Quinton and decided to talk to the latter.

Both of them were in the tea room. Justin looked out the window at the falling flowers and said solemnly, "I'm going to Beach City, and I'm not sure when I'll come back."

"I figured that." Quinton sipped some tea, his face impassive. "I just didn't expect that you could hold yourself back until now. Looks like you genuinely love my sister."

Generally, people would have lost their minds when facing such an incident and would take revenge on the people involved.

However, Justin didn't blame them. Instead, he had his people treat them kindly. It baffled Quinton, who was used to malice.

"I just didn't want to do anything crazy while I was furious. Plus…" Justin looked at Quinton. "You, the kids, and Margaret are the most important people for her. I asked you guys to come and stay here to reassure her. I can't use you guys as tools to take revenge on her. If I did that, I would have betrayed her trust in me.

    Quinton had promised Renee that he would never fight Stefan as long as Renee was still around. Suddenly, Justin asked something profound, "What if Phoenix sees the Hunt family as her enemy one day?""What do you mean?" Quinton frowned in confusion.Renee would have long done that if she wanted to. She wouldn't wait for such a long time. She was just too kind and soft-hearted, giving others a chance to harm her. Hence, Quinton became anxious. "Nothing. You'll know in the future." Justin stopped, but then added, "I'll leave my family in your care while I'm away. You know my parents don't get along with Stefan's. If I don't stop them, things might get very nasty, especially with what had happened.""They just yanked each other's hair and scolded each other. How bad could it get?" Quinton had witnessed all kinds of things during the few days he was there. At first, he was bewildered. But later, he got used to it and was eager to see if there would be anything new.After all, they

    “Let’s get a divorce, Renee.”The man’s cold voice sounded from behind while Renee Everheart was in the middle of searing steaks. After hearing those words, she became seemingly numb to the hot oil splattering on her cheeks from the lightly sizzling pan.“We’re only husband and wife on paper. Now that four years have passed, it’s time to end this,” Stefan Hunt said with a cold, distant tone. Renee bit her lip anxiously. ‘Looks like this day was inevitable after all…’Her family was declared bankrupt four years ago. Her parents, unable to endure the stress of financial hardship, took their lives together, leaving young Renee to handle the mess alone. In the past, Renee’s grandfather fought alongside Stefan’s grandfather on the battlefield, and he even saved the latter’s life once. In his dying moments, he voiced out to his old pal his concern for his granddaughter and left Renee under his care. And so, a marriage of convenience was arranged between Stefan and Renee to put the

    ‘No wonder Stefan wanted me out by tonight. He had another woman he wanted to play house with! Hah, to think that I let that man affect my emotions! How I wish I could slap my past self!’Briar approached Renee with a cocky smirk. “So you’re Renee Everheart, huh? What are you still doing here? Didn’t Stefan kick you out? Get a move on! Have you no shame?!”Despite the provocation, Renee continued packing her belongings at her own pace.“Hey, are you deaf? I’m talking to you here!”“Sorry, I didn’t quite hear you.” Renee met her gaze calmly. “All I heard was some crazy bitch barking!”“How dare you call me a bitch?!”“I didn’t. Looks like you went ahead and got offended in the first place.” Renee replied as she got up with her luggage. She tilted her head at Briar, who was blocking her path. “Now, if you’ll excuse me. Nice little doggies should know how to stay out of the way.” “How dare you!” Briar’s face went bright red as she stomped her feet.‘Wasn’t she known to be a

    The next day, Renee showed up at the courthouse at 8:30 am, even though they agreed to meet at nine.Not only did she arrive early, but she also made sure to put on heavy makeup and her favorite outfit, a rose-red halter dress. With her long hair tied up into a ponytail, the skin on her neck and back glowed under the bright sunlight.When paired with her elegant, yet cold demeanor, she looked angelic from afar.Unfortunately, she had caught a cold the night before. Her body was burning up, which made her feel quite weak.At 9 am sharp, a silver Bugatti Veyron cruised into the parking lot in front of the courthouse. Soon after, she was greeted by Stefan’s ice-cold expression as he exited the vehicle.His eyes sparkled for a split second when he saw Renee standing there, but this was quickly replaced with a contemptuous expression for some reason.“Well, aren’t you excited?” Stefan scoffed as he walked past Renee, heading straight towards the department that handled divorce cases.

    ‘Just look at how unabashed this man is acting! This is ridiculous!’ Renee thought. She had always viewed Stefan as someone who was morally sound and would never commit adultery.In the end… the very same man she thought so highly of, dropped a nuclear bomb on her. Not only did he intend on marrying his mistress, but they were expecting as well.This was the last push that Renee needed to move on completely. The tinge of sadness in her heart had completely vanished.“So this means you were cheating on me, right?”Before Stefan could respond, Briar hurriedly placed herself between them. Teary-eyed, she said, “Ms. Everheart, it’s all my fault! If it makes you feel better, you can punish me however you want…”‘Does this woman think this is some soap opera? She’d make a great actress, honestly.’“Really now?” Renee raised her hand up high as if she was about to deliver a slap.As soon as she realized what was going to happen, Briar squealed and darted behind Stefan.“Didn’t you say

    Renee thought she was about to fall flat on her face.Just then, a man wrapped his strong arm around her waist, catching her fall. The fresh scent of peppermint filled her senses, entrancing the woman entirely. "You're burning hot… Do you have a fever?" Stefan asked her with a hint of concern in his voice.The urge to protect her sprang up in his mind, accompanied by the following thought.'She's so thin and frail, like a feather.'"This doesn't concern you!" Renee hissed through her teeth as she regained her balance. She stubbornly tried to free herself from his arms.After the procedure was done, she intended to walk away elegantly, leaving Stefan in the dust. She wanted to avoid casting the impression that she was using her illness to gain sympathy.However, no matter how tough she tried to act, her body was simply exhausted. Even after gaining her footing, she staggered backward.Seeing this, Stefan lifted her bridal style and said, "I'll take you to the hospital.""What

    Liam's relaxed voice came to a sudden halt as soon as he noticed Stefan standing inside the ward.He studied the man before him as the man did the same. An odd tension settled in the room."Do you know each other?" Stefan asked Renee with a chilling tone.He wondered how an infamous playboy and a modest rich lady would ever get the chance to interact when they were from completely different worlds."Well…" Renee buried her face in her hands awkwardly. She was the one who texted Liam to meet at the hospital, but she didn't expect him to arrive so soon.'A soon-to-be ex-husband bumping into the dashing playboy… This was weirdly reminiscent of a scene from a romantic drama.’“Know her? She’s my muse!” Liam exclaimed as he approached Renee with a bouquet of sunflowers in his hand. With a sarcastic smile, he turned to Stefan. “Little do you know, Master Hunt, Miss Everheart has quite the reputation back in our school! She has so many admirers that she could build an army if she want

    “I’ve got it right here. How would I dare slack off when you’re my boss?” Liam stopped his cheeky act and handed the woman a thick stack of documents.Renee couldn’t care less about her sick state and skim through the pages quickly.After a few moments, a pleased grin formed on her lips. “Good. I knew these lawyers weren’t as ordinary as they seemed. They’re worth way more than what he offered as compensation!”“Tsk, but they’re Stefan Hunt’s employees. How great can they be?” Liam questioned, crossing his legs while leaning against the side rails of her bed. “I know lots of lawyers who are better than them. If you need any, I can give you some recommendations.” “No, I want them,” Renee said with a determined expression. She seemed in a great mood, absolutely unbothered by her divorce.“Boss, are you planning something? I feel like I can smell a scheme coming our way.” Liam expressed sheer excitement.‘Four years! It’s been four whole years! I’m so thrilled the goddess herself h

    Sophia was somewhat disappointed. After all, both families were competing against each other explicitly and implicitly. They should have fought against each other long ago, but nothing ever happened.Fortunately, both families were safe. After all, the Hunt family was not an easy target. Even if the Baldwin family attacked them with the Tiger and Dragon, the Hunt family probably had a superior backup. For example, they might possess a more elite mercenary army or a regular army. "I don't want to make things worse…" Justin paused, feeling complicated. "At the very least, I don't want to do that before I get to the bottom of things. I don't want it to end up unsalvageable." He just wanted to ensure that Renee was safe and get an explanation from her. "I know you've gone easy on her. Are you afraid that things might get difficult for her?" Sophia patted his shoulders. "Just do what you want. Follow your heart. You have my support, regardless of the choice you make." During the en

    After listening to Sophia's words, Justin began contemplating. He wondered if he had misunderstood things and if Phoenix was in danger. As he imagined various kinds of situations, anxiety surged in him. Justin flexed his fingers and said solemnly, "No, I have to go to Beach City right away!""Go ahead. I'll go with you. You can't go alone. After all, Beach City is the Hunt family's territory. We have to bring some manpower with us…" Sophia glanced at Francine and said secretly, "Go and ask your grandpa for an army. We're going with an army. Even if Stefan is arrogant, he can't do anything about us since the army will protect us.""Grandpa already gave me the most elite army. This is the token." Justin fished the token out to reassure Sophia."Oh my gosh!"Sophia's eyes lit up when she saw it."This is Tiger and Dragon! Your grandpa trained them. Although there's only a hundred people in this army, all of them are the best among the best. They won't pale in comparison to the me

    "I guess." After a pause, Alexander said casually, "My father and his father were best friends, so our families were close when I was still young. Your father and I were close playmates during our childhood."In the past, Timothy and Maurice retired from the battlefield and went to Beach City. They started their businesses and families. Their business went well as they kept competing against each other, and both families were close.When Alexander was born, both families stopped getting so close. It might be because of their different interests or some other reason. Both Timothy and Maurice still got together during festivals, but the younger generation rarely had anything to do with each other. When Stefan came, the relationship between both families grew more distant. There was even some secret competition and conflicts of interest."Really?" Quinton's eyes lit up, and he became less fierce. He asked curiously, "What kind of a person was he? Did anything interesting happen durin

    "Of course not!" Alexander slowly drank his coffee, then said sincerely to Jack, "To be honest, I secretly called my son last night and asked if he did it. He told me that he didn't know anything. Plus, he was having a meeting at the headquarters when that happened. Later, I asked the several shareholders who had attended the meeting that day. They told me my son was in the conference room that day and never left. How could he take her away?""Really?" Jack looked at Alexander doubtfully. "Is it possible that the shareholders conspired with your son to lie to you? Who could it be if not him?" Stefan was the only one who had the motive to do so. Besides, he was the only one who was capable of doing so. Other than him, they couldn't think of any other person. Besides, the makeup artist was an eyewitness."Hey, I told you he didn't. I know him the best. If he had taken her away, he wouldn't have kept it a secret like this. He would have announced it to the world." Alexander felt that

    "Let go!""No, I won't!""If you don't, you'll regret it!""Just go ahead! I'm not afraid of you!"Justin could hear the fierce argument in the yard of the guest area from afar. When he entered the yard, he could see his mother fighting against Francine. Francine and Sophia were gripping each other's hair, refusing to let go. They kept increasing their force, adamant on not giving up. "Your son took my daughter-in-law away and openly said such a nasty thing! I must beat you up today!" Sophia gnashed her teeth and fiercely gripped Francine's hair. She was still furious because of the news. After thinking it through, she couldn't accept it. Hence, she ran to the guest room to vent her anger on Francine. After all, Stefan was Francine's son. It must be Francine's fault that Stefan was so awful. Since Sophia couldn't beat Stefan up at the moment, she decided to beat up Francine instead. Unexpectedly, Francine was not a pushover. From a young age, she was famous in the rich ci

    "I…" After a pause, Justin shook his head. "I honestly don't know what I want to do now.""Do you hate her?" Austin asked. "No…" Justin looked gloomy. "I'll never hate her. I'm just disappointed in her. Why did she abandon me again?" Seeing his only grandson being so gloomy, Austin heaved a long sigh. "Calm down. I'll get people now to catch her. I must make her marry you.""No!" Justin shook his head. "I can't force her. She'll never forget Stefan. I just flattered myself and thought that I could change her. Served me right! Things got this way because of me.""You're always so kind. You don't act like my grandson." Given his past character, Austin would have scolded Justin fiercely. But for the first time, he saw how gloomy Justin was. He couldn't bring himself to be harsh. Besides, he wouldn't attack the Hunt family just to do Justin a favor. He wasn't keen on making too big a mess."I'm sorry, Grandpa," Justin apologized solemnly. "I know I've always let you and my fami

    Justin appeared casual and open-minded, but he was in truth a proud man who struggled to accept his failures. He also rarely failed in his life. He always did his best in everything and rose to the top. His only two failures were when Renee defeated him.The first time was during the Global Hacker Championship. Someone named Phoenix defeated him for the first time. The second failure was when she abandoned him. Suddenly, Sophia snapped her fingers and patted Justin's shoulders. "Oh, I've come up with a good method! Wait and see! I'll avenge you."Justin became confused and anxious. He was not at all happy when he heard that, and hurriedly asked, "Mom, what are you going to do?""Leave it. I'll deal with it my way."Then, Sophia said to the servant at the door, "What are you waiting for? Come in and clean up the mess." The servant held her breath in fear to see Sophia holding a blade. She kept her head low as she entered the room to clean up the mess.Justin was frustrated.
