Author: Mizuki Sei
Justin heard that and turned around to look at the man behind him.

"Mr. Young, you came in time." The receptionist acted like she had seen her savior. She heaved a sigh of relief instantly and hurriedly let him take care of the trouble. "Mr. Baldwin would like to meet Mr. Hunt. What should we do about it?"

"It's fine. Let me handle it." Elijah raised his chin and instructed the receptionist to get back to her work. Then, he said to Justin, "I'm so sorry to see you come here in person. May I have a chat with you?"

Justin said icily, "I'll only meet Stefan."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Baldwin. Mr. Hunt is pretty busy now and won't see anyone. You can talk to me about anything. It won't be any different."

Elijah was neither humble nor overbearing, but he was firm. It seemed that he had received an order from Stefan.

Justin felt that Stefan must be guilty. If not, Stefan wouldn't be too cowardly to see him.

"This concerns him and me, so I can only talk to him. Ask him to come and see me and

    "Um…" Surprisingly, Justin was quite calm. For a moment, Elijah was rendered speechless. When he hesitated, he got a call from Stefan. "Please wait a moment."Elijah covered his phone and cautiously nodded at Justin before he walked to a corner. Justin pocketed his hands and acted like an outsider. He watched from afar as Elijah's expression changed drastically. He was quite confident now. Renee's sudden disappearance probably had nothing to do with Stefan."Mr. Baldwin…" Elijah finally hung up and heaved a long sigh. "Mr. Hunt would like to talk to you alone in his office.""That sounds about right." Justin raised his brow, unsurprised. He knew Stefan would see him regardless of whether Renee was with him because both of them cared about Renee greatly. Justin went to the top floor where Stefan was, with Elijah leading the way."Come in."The spacious president's office was rather quiet. The members of the secretarial team were sent away. Hence, Justin was left alone with

    "An eyewitness?" Stefan caught the key information and frowned. He interrogated icily, "What kind of eyewitness?" "A makeup artist from my engagement party. She claimed you were the one who'd taken Phoenix away," Justin said.When he remembered the makeup artist's words, he was still angry, but he maintained his rationale. After dwelling on them, he felt that the makeup artist would not have easily gotten knocked out if she had conspired with Stefan beforehand."I didn't go to North City," Stefan stressed again, looking worried. "If someone impersonated me and took her away, her situation would be bad now.""That's my concern, too."Initially, Justin hated Stefan so much that he wanted to beat the latter up. Gradually, he subconsciously took Stefan's side to ensure Renee's safety."I happened to have brought the eyewitness here to prove that you weren't lying. Do you dare to confront her?" Justin asked Stefan, just to play it safe."Of course." Stefan shrugged, composed. "I wou

    The makeup artist smiled awkwardly. People of her profession had met various kinds of handsome gentlemen and beautiful ladies. Of course, they would be excited to see those with exceptionally good facial features, since being the stylist of such a person was an honor."Just leave! You're useless now!" Justin hurriedly drove the makeup artist away for fear that Stefan might get too smug from being praised."Wait!" Stefan stopped her and asked coldly, "Do you still remember what that man looked like?""Of course!" The makeup artist looked at Stefan with bright eyes, eager and enthusiastic. "That gentleman was very handsome and looked a little like you. He was also called Mr. Hunt, but I don't know his name."The makeup artist tried hard to recall the details of that affair. She told Stefan everything that she could remember."Okay, I know who it was." Stefan looked calm, not at all agitated after learning the truth. He also sounded indifferent."Do you know who it was?" Justin, res

    "I know." Justin looked at Stefan. He saw through Stefan's inner thoughts easily. "What do you know?" Stefan calmly asked. "You did it on purpose, didn't you?" Justin subconsciously flexed his fingers, furious. "If you wanted to stop your crazy cousin, you would have done so—but you didn't. Instead, you let him do as he pleased. You used him to help get what you wanted. Your crazy cousin was just your tool!""You're overthinking." Stefan kept his calmness, not at all guilty even though Justin had exposed his thoughts. He looked gloomy as he said, "Jovan merely did what he wanted to do. I just followed my heart and acted as an outsider.""You, an outsider?" Justin grabbed Stefan's collar and glared at him. "Then, I'm sure you know where he took her to. We've got to find her together. When we find her, you must leave her forever and never appear in front of her. Can you do that?" Similarly, Stefan confronted Justin fiercely and answered honestly, "I don't know where he is. He a

    Justin didn't expect Stefan to cooperate. He had no idea what to do."Really?" He tried to confirm with Stefan, as he didn't believe Stefan could be persuaded that easily. "I don't have to lie to you." Stefan looked calm and heartbroken. "I'm already very lucky to have spent some time with her. Plus, I'm satisfied that we've loved each other deeply. I can't wish for other things." Justin pursed his lips, almost moved by Stefan's deep passion. "Tell me what you want. I'll satisfy you if I can."Stefan promised Justin too easily. If Justin did not provide anything in return, he would feel insecure. Yet, he knew that it was simply because Stefan had lost his mind and wanted to break up with Renee."My actions have nothing to do with you." Stefan looked cold and contemptuous, not even taking Justin seriously. However, he had some conditions. "I think I have to talk to you about something." "I'm listening." Justin let down his guard and anger. At the same time, he let go of Stefan'

    "What happened?" Stefan frowned, noticing how serious it was. He was about to go downstairs to check it out when Elijah stopped him."Don't go out!" Elijah immediately rushed into the office, anxious. "Mr. Hunt, it's a mess downstairs! Two men with guns barged into the company and claimed they had placed bombs in the core foundation of the building. They want us to let somebody go. If not, they're going to blow up the building!""Bombs?" Stefan had considered that things might get serious, but this exceeded his anticipation. Surprisingly, they boldly challenged Hunt Enterprise in broad daylight in front of everyone. It was an open challenge against the Hunt family, and they wanted to start a war. "Who is that bold? And who do they want?" Elijah couldn't figure it out. Recently, they were cautious, so he had no idea who they had offended. "Uh…" Justin raised his hand and tried to say something.Stefan was no longer in the mood to entertain him. He said icily, "I don't care who

    Justin didn't expect Elijah to be so good at fighting despite appearing to be a mere assistant. Elijah defeated and caught him with ease.If Justin knew, he would have learned martial arts properly when his grandfather taught him back then instead of being absorbed in coding. "I don't want to do this either, but there are thousands of employees here. I don't want to see them sacrificed just because we're rivals in love," Stefan said.Stefan believed that Justin was telling the truth, but he needed a safety measure. If anything went wrong, he wouldn't be on the losing end."Fine. Take me downstairs. Let them have me. They'll dismantle the bombs," Justin said.After struggling a bit and failing to break free, Justin accepted his fate. He could understand why Stefan did that. Cadmus and Tiger were reckless and rough. They were the reason why he was in this state. At the same time, the reporters outside were agitated. They had no idea about the result of the negotiation between Ste

    Jovan's face was frosty. He smashed the box containing the pearl on the bed and glared at Renee. "Do you have to make both of us uneasy?" "It's not the first day we're uneasy. If you don't want me to lose my remaining affection for you, you'd better let me go now." Renee looked at him, refusing to give up. She hoped he would change his mind and let her go."What can you do if I let you go?" Jovan snorted. "It's already too late. You'll only make things worse if you go out.""What do you mean?" Renee was isolated in the room and had no idea what had happened. But she knew something must have happened, or Jovan would not have said that."Well…" Jovan checked his watch. "The Hunt family started fighting the Baldwin family an hour ago. It's just like a war film."Anxiety overcame Renee when she heard that. She flexed her fingers and hurriedly asked, "What happened? Why did you say it's just like a war film? Did they make a big scene?"Although she was mentally prepared for the Ba

    After a long pause, Stefan finally admitted honestly, "That wasn't a lie." He turned to look at Renee. He knew what he had to do, and heaved a long sigh."But life isn't just about love.""Why not?" Renee became teary as she stared at him like a child who failed to get what she wanted. "To me, that's already enough. As long as we love each other, we can conquer everything. Without love, it'll be hopeless.""If loving each other is already enough, there wouldn't be the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet. Didn't they love each other deeply? They loved each other a lot, but they ended up dead!" Stefan shot back.He could not stop himself from getting impulsive. Heartbroken, he turned around to look into Renee's eyes. "Compared to love, I'd rather you lead a steady and happy life. But I'm not the one who can give you that. I'll only bring you pain and death!""Romeo and Juliet?" Renee found that preposterous and bizarre. "What a lousy excuse! Did I kill your parents, or did you kill my p

    "How could you…" Stefan looked at Renee in disbelief. For a moment, he was struck dumb. Renee quietly removed the oxygen mask and the needle. She calmly sat up in bed. "I thought you'd never be honest with me.""When did you wake up?" Stefan finally regained his wits. Because of his guilt, he was too scared to look into Renee's eyes. "I had long woken up." Renee was very calm. She looked weak because she had lost too much blood, but at the same time, she still looked firm like a rose blooming in winter. "So, you purposely lured me here, didn't you?"When Stefan learned that she had long woken up, he realized with shock that he might have stepped into the trap she and Jovan set up.Naturally, he was uneasy, given the proud man he was. He could plot against others but could not tolerate others doing the same to him, let alone the fact that it was his beloved woman."Hmph! Did I lure you here?" Renee laughed sarcastically and disappointedly. She looked at Stefan as he tried

    "Can I wake her up?" Stefan seemed to be asking them and himself. He shook his head in self-hatred. "I'm afraid I'm the reason why she wants to escape this world. She must hate me to the core and refuse to see me. She might know that I'm here, so she's avoiding me and refuses to wake up."He recalled how much he had harmed her. He was not confident to wake her up, let alone face her."Yes, you're sinful, ut you must be held accountable for it!" Justin could not bother to waste his time talking to Stefan. He pushed Stefan into the ward instead. "You made her so angry, she's in a coma now. So, you have to wake her up. If she doesn't, you can't leave the ward!""Agreed!"Jovan was standing on the other side. He and Justin seemed to have formed a barrier and refused to let Stefan back down.After some contemplation, Stefan decided to face the music. He closed the ward door and quietly went to Renee's bed. It was the first time he was alone with her after a long time."You're tr

    Unsurprisingly, Renee remained irresponsive. Justin gradually grew depressed. Before, he was confident. Seeing that he was getting no response from her, his confidence waned. Undeniably, he was probably not that important to her. If not, she wouldn't remain indifferent. She would have sensed that he was around. "I got it. You don't need me." Justin smiled helplessly. He felt pathetic too. He took a deep breath and finally stood up to exit the ward."How's it going?" Stefan asked.He kept waiting outside the ward, paying close attention to it in hopes that Renee could wake up. He also felt that Justin could bring Renee wonderful things and hope. She would wake up when she sensed that Justin was calling for her. "Hmph! Isn't it obvious? Of course, he couldn't wake her up!" Jovan casually leaned against the bench in the corridor, not even looking up. He sounded vicious. "He's just a backup guy. Of course she doesn't care about him! She's not in love with him." Justin glared at J

    Stefan remained quiet as he calmly watched Renee. He extended his hand to touch her face but retrieved it before he could.She used to be the woman he was familiar with and the one he had hugged and kissed countless times, but now, he didn't even dare to touch her. "I think she doesn't even want you here. She must hate you so much and is disappointed in you. She'll be even more pressured if you stay here, and it'll push her further from this world. So please, get the hell out of here if you want the best for her!"Justin could not hold himself back from scolding Stefan. If Jovan was telling the truth, Stefan must be aware of the fact that Jovan was holding Renee hostage. Yet, he remained indifferent and feigned ignorance. He didn't even care if Renee was fine. What a cruel bastard! Justin was disappointed in Stefan. He wanted nothing more than to see what was really on Stefan's mind."Take good care of her." Stefan did not want to defend himself. He glanced at Renee, relucta

    "What did you do to her?!" Stefan interrogated Jovan coldly, his eyes teary. "She isn't the kind to kill herself! What the hell did you do to her?" "Try to wake her up if you want to know." Jovan was pale. His previous sickness, coupled with his recent blood donation to Renee, made him very weak. Despite that, he refused to stop infuriating others. "Do you think I can't do anything to you? Do you really think that?" Stefan could no longer hold himself back and strangled Jovan. "I'm going to kill you! Repent for the terrible things you've done!"He couldn't imagine the kind of thing that could force the strong and stubborn Renee to resist by using such a desperate means. "You obviously won't go easy on me! I'm sure of that!" Jovan sneered. His pale face turned flushed as he suffocated from Stefan's powerful grip. "But you'd better kill yourself first if you want to avenge her! She ended up like this because of you." "What?" Stefan's face was frosty. He strengthened his grip a

    Jovan slowly got up from the ground, looking incredibly weak. He whispered, "She lost too much blood. The doctor claimed she's out of danger, but…she hasn't woken up.""What did you say?" Stefan and Justin were bewildered. They couldn't process his words."So, she was the female college student who tried to kill herself?" Stefan said. He staggered after linking the information he had heard from a nurse with the things that Jovan had said."Stop acting dumb! You're so smart, how could you have missed that?" Jovan glared coldly stared at Stefan, scrutinizing him in disdain. "You were just too scared to face the truth and your woman! You're such a coward! You're an embarrassment to your family!""Agreed!" Justin added; he suddenly found Jovan useful, especially when the latter started insulting Stefan. It felt just right."Although I'm a fallback guy, I'm braver than you. I accept that she doesn't love me, and I'm willing to give it a try with her. And although this guy's a vill

    Stefan frowned, doubtful. He looked vigilantly at Jovan, who had collapsed on the ground. "What do you mean by this?"Jovan kept coughing and said nothing. His lips grew pale as he sneered.Justin's eyes were cold, and he held back his urge to beat up Jovan. "Hmph! Obviously, this is a scam!"He demanded condescendingly, "How dare you barge into my territory and take away my woman! Don't you fear my family and me at all?"Jovan, filled with disdain, looked at Justin as if he was a fool. "Stop talking. You don't even have the right to join this battle."To Jovan, only Stefan was qualified and powerful enough to be his enemy."How dare you say that!" Justin was infuriated. He got down on one knee and grabbed Jovan. "Your family always says nasty things! You two are the same. If we start fighting, I'll make sure to cut your tongue first!""Did I say something wrong?" Jovan sized Justin up, ridiculing Justin with mock compassion. "Don't you have any self-awareness? You're just a fal

    Stefan frowned and asked solemnly, "Aren't you a top hacker? Hack into this hospital's inpatient system. Then, we'll know where she is.""Yes, you're right." Still, Justin wanted to challenge Stefan. He said indifferently, "But you're Jovan's cousin. It's more convenient for you to make a call instead of me hacking into their system."Yes, Justin could hack into their system, but calling Jovan would be quicker. And what they needed the most was time."He and I…" Stefan sneered, flexing his fingers. "The fact we didn't kill each other is considered peaceful. He's not as obedient as you think.""You'll know by calling him."Justin had heard about the complicated internal fights of the Hunt family, but he felt that Stefan was exaggerating."Jovan is a Hunt no matter what. Plus, he's still working at Hunt Enterprise. Just call him," Justin said. "Fine." Stefan found Justin logical. His private grudges with Jovan were not important because finding Renee immediately was the most impo
