Chapter 2331

Author: Mizuki Sei
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

    "I'm sorry!" Renee cried quietly since she knew that she had done something wrong. "I broke my promise, but I tried my best to make it up to you. If you still find it insufficient, my life is yours.""What do I need that for?" Jovan caressed her slender and smooth neck. "If I could make up my mind to kill you, I would have long done so. I didn't have to get tangled up with you here. Rather than your life, I want your heart instead!" Then, he bent down and gently kissed her. If it were in the past, Renee would have resisted him. Now, she calmly accepted it and responded to his kiss. She hooked her hands around his neck and kissed him back passionately. After getting a response, Jovan grew excited. He closed his eyes, absorbed in the atmosphere that Renee created. After an unknown period, Jovan realized something and pushed her away. "What do you mean? Do you pity me? Or are you trying to bribe me?" He touched his lips and felt humiliated for no reason.To him, kissing wa

    "Is that so?" Renee looked coldly at Jovan's eyes as if she had seen another version of herself. Then, she sounded dispirited. "But you'll soon lose me.""What?" Jovan sized Renee up, feeling that she was purposely threatening him. He said indifferently, "As long as you're still with me, I won't lose you. Just stay here and stop overthinking. You can't run away!"He was an obstinate person. He wanted her heart but knew that he could not get it. Hence, he would bind her to him. Both refused to give in. Jovan inexplicably felt gloomy and let her go. He said coldly, "Think it through." Then, he left the room.When he recalled this incident many years later, he felt it might be the most foolish and regretful thing he had done.After leaving that day, he purposely returned to the room again after a few hours. Jovan smoked outside and tried to calm down. He persuaded himself to stop taking things seriously. After all, Renee never liked him. It was perfectly reasonable for her t

    Jovan couldn't imagine the kind of pain Renee had gone through. She used an iron wire to cut the pulse on her wrist. He also couldn't imagine how badly she yearned to die."Renee, I've underestimated you!"After calming himself down, Jovan staggered and searched for the key to unlock the chain around Renee's ankle. He couldn't stop himself from trembling. Renee said that he would regret it, and he did. He regretted what he had done very much. If he knew she would be this desperate, he would never use this method to lock her up. If the price of getting her was to see her die, he would never have wanted her.Endless thoughts messed with Jovan's mind. He couldn't think straight and just wanted her to be safe. He spent quite a long time to finally find the key. He trembled as he unlocked the chain around her ankles. Renee finally regained freedom, but had lost consciousness… He carried her in his arms and quickly got into the car. He stepped hard on the gas pedal and arrived at th

    Cadmus was holding a detonator, and gave Nora a final warning. "On the count of three, we'll blow up Hunt Enterprise right away if you don't let Mr. Baldwin go!" "You have to dismantle the bombs first, or we won't let him go." Nora frowned, her tone cold. She refused to back down.Time passed by. Both parties fell into a stalemate. Some employees in the lobby had been hurt, but Tiger was standing at the entrance and prohibited the injured people from leaving. The situation was critical. Nora looked at the employees who were about to collapse and grew more anxious. She threatened Cadmus and Tiger, "Let my employees go, or Mr. Baldwin will suffer too.""How dare you threaten us! You don't take the Baldwin family seriously at all. You're looking for trouble!"Cadmus fired a few shots at the sky. The scene grew more chaotic."I think the president of Hunt Enterprise is a coward! As the president, he's too timid to show himself and keeps acting like a coward. He used his employees

    "Get out of my way!" Stefan's coldness nearly crushed Elijah. Finally, Elijah failed to resist Stefan's toughness and stepped aside. "Mr. Hunt, you'll regret it. I believe that Justin isn't that simple!"Elijah followed Stefan and did not give up on trying to dissuade Stefan. He hoped that Stefan would change his mind.Stefan pursed his lips and pushed Justin to Elijah. "Grab him. I'll negotiate with them."Then, he pressed the button of the elevator to go downstairs. "Okay."Since Stefan had made up his mind, Elijah found it hard to keep stopping Stefan. He casually grabbed a sharp pocketknife and pushed it against Justin's neck.He warned fiercely, "Behave yourself. If not, I'm going to cut your throat." "I've been behaving myself. You guys are easily startled." Justin smiled and looked at Stefan. He mocked, "I know now. You're the heir of The Great Eight of Beach City, but you're weak and helpless. Your company is weak, too. Only two soldiers of mine are capable of me

    At the same time, there was a bang. Cadmus's gunshot accurately went through Nora's body."Aunt Nora!" Stefan's mind went blank when he saw his aunt, who had always doted on him, collapse in front of him."Oh, no! It's all over!"Justin realized that this was no longer the fight between him and Stefan. It had become a battle between two great families. "Step down now!" Anxious, Justin knocked against Elijah, who was similarly anxious. Then, he stood between Stefan and Cadmus and Tiger. "Shoot me if you want to! If you don't step down, I'll let them cut my throat!""Uh…" Cadmus and Tiger were shocked by Justin's action. Frightened, they no longer acted recklessly."Hold on, Aunt Nora!"Stefan said nothing else. He carried Nora, who was lying in a pool of blood, in his arms. His eyes turned teary. "I'll save you! Hold on."He carried Nora and walked out of the building. Cadmus and Tiger wanted to stop him, but Justin warned them with a threatening look."I'll go with you!" Ju

    Nora was Stefan's aunt. She had helped Stefan to achieve a lot of things in the company in these years. Justin knew that he could never harm her. If anything happened to her, the Hunt and Baldwin families would certainly fight. Even so, he wasn't afraid if that happened. If he was, he wouldn't get impulsive and want to fight Stefan. It would be a pity, though. After all, they made peace just moments ago and promised not to fight against each other in three years.If they fought, Stefan wouldn't leave Renee as promised. If he lingered around, Justin would have no chance of winning her over."You guys got me into a huge mess! You'd better pray Ms. Hunt is safe!" Justin grew angrier as he dwelled on it. He yearned to slap them. Thinking about it, he decided to go to the hospital to feel better.Elijah caught up with Justin and asked cautiously, "Where are you going?" "I'm going to the hospital to check things out. It's better than sitting here and doing nothing."Justin rubb

    "What's that?" Justin frowned and said with disdain, "That's something to fool naive women like you. Only lovestruck fools will believe that." As a materialistic person, he never believed in things like horoscopes and fortune-telling. At most, they were mixed with some psychology. They weren't trustworthy at all.If Renee wanted to use those things to talk about their relationships and destinies, it would seem very childish. "Don't be so extreme. Those things are real and logical." Renee acted like an experienced salesperson and gradually eliminated Justin's prejudice. She said patiently, "If you believe those things, they can guide you and help you to see things through. If not, you can use them to kill time. Just try to get to know them. Isn't that nice?"Finally, Justin was convinced. He had some milk and asked her leisurely, "Fine. Tell me what kind of relationship we have based on those things." "I learned that our relationship is a declining friendship based on our birt

    "I…" Renee paused. For a moment, she had no idea how to answer that question."Don't put yourself in a difficult position. Just follow your heart," Justin said calmly. "If you want to stay, my family will still welcome you readily. If you want to leave, I'll come up with a way to help you leave smoothly."After listening to Justin, Renee answered honestly, "Maybe it's better for me to leave, though I know this choice will hurt you."She could choose to stay to protect Justin's dignity and give Austin a good explanation. It would be more relaxing and steadier for her. However, Renee knew that it could only last briefly. She would cause Justin greater harm. She might as well be decisive and stop the damage in time. "Don't say that." Justin cracked a bitter smile and said with relief, "I've stopped taking things too seriously. If you like me, you won't stop loving me even if we're apart. Similarly, you'll think about another man if you don't like me, even though you're always b

    Austin was having breakfast in the dining room. When he saw Justin and Renee walk over intimately, he finally believed that they had slept together. They seemed like a real couple."Good morning, Grandpa Baldwin!" Renee obediently greeted Austin just like before. She acted normally."Good morning." Austin nodded, unable to suppress his smile. After sizing them up, he calmly said to Renee, "We know how apologetic you are after you toasted to us last night. We'll forget about the past. You're still a part of my family." "Grandpa!" Justin interrupted Austin; he was very protective of Renee. "She's a woman, and we're not married yet. Please don't say that. A woman's reputation is the most important thing.""You…" Austin wanted to refute Justin, but their conflict was just resolved so it would be bad to pressure them more. He shook his head and said, "Fine. You two always have a bland romance. Finally, you've made some progress. I'll let you two decide what to do next.""Got it, Gr

    "Hey, Haze! What are you doing? Get off of me!" Renee struggled in confusion."Hush!" Justin gestured and stopped her.In a while, someone unlocked the door of the room."Mr. Baldwin, let me help you and Ms. Everheart change your clothes." A kind middle-aged woman walked into the room casually. When she found them sleeping together intimately, relief washed over her. "Oh, you guys are still sleeping… Fine, I'll leave you be." Then, the woman exited the room.After that, Justin stopped hovering above Renee, looking awkward. "I'm sorry. It happened all of a sudden. If I hadn't done that, they wouldn't let us go. I just did a small thing to resolve the issue." Justin was fully aware of Austin's thoughts. Although Austin was still angry at Renee, he was satisfied with her and wanted to see her get into a real intimate relationship with Justin. If that did not happen, Austin might tie them up together since the drug had failed. Justin could only act with Renee to avoid the in

    Renee grinned, satisfied after a long rest. "Why didn't you sleep a bit longer? This bed is comfortable and fluffy." While talking, she behaved like a fish as she extended her limbs and rolled around in bed childishly. In comparison to her calmness and ease, Justin behaved gingerly and did not dare to move as he lay in bed."Do you have any idea what had happened? We aren't dreaming. We're lying in the same bed," Justin said.He was certain that Renee was not fully awake. It explained why she was that composed. Otherwise, any normal woman would get out of bed with a start and keep screaming if they found herself lying in a man's bed."I know!" Renee said. After having a great time rolling around, Renee faced Justin with her head on her arm while lying on her side. "I wanted to drink wine to say sorry to you guys last night, but your family drugged the wine. You drank the same wine when you tried to stop me. We were controlled by the drug and were locked up in this room. T

    Renee instantly understood what Justin meant by that. It turned out that the incident was just a part of the Baldwin family's plan. If she left, the Baldwin family would not easily let her off the hook.Justin still cared about her at a time like that, which moved her. "Thank you. You're great." Renee cried; she had no idea how to repay him. "You don't have to thank me. I'm not so great, either. I just hate that they always pester me." Justin purposely sounded relaxed. He finally calmed himself down as he casually grabbed some bandages to bandage his wound. Then, he lay in bed.He slept on one side of the bed and said to Renee, "It's late. You should rest early. This bed is large enough. If you don't mind, you can lie in bed too."The bed was large. It was more than enough even if Renee and Justin lay there."I…" Renee hesitated briefly before she finally got in bed. She trusted Justin. If he wanted to do something indecent to her, he would have long done that. He would no

    "I don't know how to tell you. I'm sure you can understand." Renee could not bring herself to say more because it was a humiliating privacy. She might as well keep it to herself."Let me guess…" Justin's gaze grew sharp as he went straight to the point. "The man in your story is Stefan, isn't it?" Silence washed over Renee as she kept her head bowed. It was a silent approval.Justin burst into reckless laughter, which was scary. He looked down at his cut wound and laughed pathetically. "This is why he could make you fall in love with him, and I couldn't. I'm too cultured compared to him.""Don't say that, Haze!"Seeing how defeated Justin was, Renee became uneasy. "It isn't written in the stars for us. Plus, I've fallen in love with Stefan a long time ago before I even got to know you. I also rely on him physically and psychologically. I can't control my feelings. It's not something we can change. We…" "Stop!" Heartbroken, Justin pushed away everything in front of him and s

    Time passed by. Gradually, the pain knocked some sense into Justin. He no longer wanted to take advantage of Renee."Let me get you some water." Renee had no idea what she could do for Justin. After some contemplation, she got to her feet and poured him a glass of water.Finally, she studied the room closely and found that it was a wedding room as Justin had mentioned. Everything was set up according to her preferences, which she had occasionally mentioned to Justin. For example, she loved keeping some ceramic ornaments on the bedside cabinet and hanging some seashell wind chimes at the windows. The entire room was painted in beige and green, which were her favorites, too. Beige gave a sense of warmth, while green gave a sense of gloominess. All of those details became the perfect wedding room for Renee.If everything went on smoothly, she would spend most of her time there, and he would be her life companion. Unfortunately, there were no ifs in the world.Renee handed the gla

    Renee covered her lips, her tone filled with disbelief. "I…cut myself." Justin leaned against the corner and frowned deeply. He was in deep pain."Why did you cut yourself?" Renee was scared out of her wits and grew more sober. In her panic, she threw herself at him and tried to stop his bleeding.Justin reacted aggressively as he waved his dagger and warned fiercely, "Get away from me! Don't touch me!" "I…" Renee paused, too afraid to act recklessly. She pointed at his wound and said, "I'm just worried about you. You're bleeding. It must hurt a lot. Why did you hurt yourself?" "It's better to be in pain!" Justin gnashed his teeth and said in agony, "The pain will knock some sense into me, so I won't act like an animal and lose control of myself.""I see…" Stunned, Renee was moved to tears. She understood why he cut himself. Surprisingly, he wanted to stay sober and not be controlled by the drug in the wine.He could have used her to satisfy his desire, and she would never b
