Chapter 2334

Author: Mizuki Sei
"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

    Hearing that, Stefan wanted to ask about the details. A tall figure suddenly ran over from nowhere and said anxiously, "How much blood did she lose? Her blood type is special. Is the blood in your blood bank sufficient? If not, use mine. My blood is compatible with hers!""Jovan?" Stefan asked tentatively when he saw that familiar back. Though he confirmed that it was indeed Jovan, he felt that this was too much of a coincidence. Jovan was beside himself. When he heard Stefan's voice, he too found it incredulous. He turned and stared at Stefan.At that moment, they seemed to have much to say but had no idea where to begin.At last, Jovan ignored Stefan and rolled up his sleeves. He said to the nurse, "When can we start? I can donate my blood to her anytime!""Now!" the nurse said urgently. "Yes, the patient's blood type is special. Plus, the blood in the blood bank isn't sufficient. It'll be great if your blood type matches hers.""Stop wasting time! Hurry up!" Jovan urged the

    The nurse on duty at the front desk studied Stefan vigilantly. She refused to violate the patient's privacy, as this concerned her professional ethics. However, she immediately became respectful when she learned that Stefan was the biggest sponsor of the hospital. She fished out the patient's information for him. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Hunt. The patient was sent here three hours ago. The name registered here is Simone Lowe, twenty-one years old. The reason for treatment is that she tried to kill herself by cutting her wrist due to an argument.""Simone Lowe?" Stefan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that. It seemed he was right. It wasn't Renee. The patient was just one of Jovan's many girlfriends. The young woman took extreme means. After being dumped by Jovan, she might have tried to kill herself to take revenge and attract Jovan's attention. Renee would never have done that. She had no reason to kill herself. The more Stefan thought, the more he felt that he was

    After a nervous wait, news about Nora finally arrived. The doctor opened the door of the emergency room and called out to the corridor, "Who is Ms. Nora Hunt''s family?" Stefan hurriedly rushed over and asked anxiously, "It's me. Doctor, how is she?" The doctor nudged his glasses and told Stefan the truth. "The patient is considered lucky. The bullet grazed her left atrium with less than an itch. She's currently safe, but she needs to rest. We can't take things lightly. A problem might pop up any time.""That's great." Stefan immediately sighed in relief. His tightly clenched fists relaxed. "That's wonderful!" Justin said, excited. He felt relieved—now that Nora was fine, the fight that might ruin both families could be called off. It also meant that there was still a chance for him to get back together with Renee. "Don't get excited. I'll settle all the losses you've done Hunt Enterprise with you," Stefan snarled. Regardless of whether Justin had ordered his men to do

    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
