"Cecilia didn't confess anything..." Christopher continued, "I just think, based on what I know about you, that you wouldn't be the kind of person to do that kind of thing. One, you have no motive, and two, it's not worth it for you."

Renee snorted coldly. "Yeah. I have no motive, and it's not worth it for me. You can see such obvious things, but Stefan Hunt can't.”

"Stef's a bit naive. He doesn't truly understand the complexity of the human heart."

"Yes, just like an idiot."

The two could not help but smile at that. A thousand words were exchanged in those smiles.

Xavier was lying on the hospital bed with one leg hanging in plaster, unable to move. He was in a terrible state and was extremely agitated.

When he saw Christopher and Renee walk into his ward, he called out at them like a drowning man clutching at a straw, "Thank god you two are here. Hurry up and get me out of here. This place is like a prison. I can't stay here for a minute longer."

Christopher frowned and said se

    "But I want to..." Xavier hesitated while looking at Renee, looking very pitiful."You want to play video games, right? You can't!"Renee's attitude was firm, like a disciplinary teacher."Hmph, whatever!"His hopes crushed, Xavier angrily covered his head with the blanket and went to sleep.The way he was fierce but scared at the same time was kinda cute.When he heard that they were leaving, he quickly pulled down the blanket and asked, "Renee, you said you're going to take care of me. Is that true?""Of course." Renee did not hesitate. “You saved my life. Isn't it natural for me to take care of you?"But let me make this clear. I'm not a very patient woman. If you keep being difficult and refuse to cooperate like you did earlier, I can't promise I won't beat you up!”"There's no need to worry. As long as you're the one taking care of me, I'll definitely cooperate."Xavier went back to sleep.Christopher watched all this with a somewhat complicated expression."Mr. Jacobs

    Christopher and Xavier immediately stopped talking, both looking guilty.“Bro, why didn't you knock before you came in? That's really rude!"Stefan's handsome face was expressionless, like an iceberg. He walked up to Xavier, knocked on the hung up plastered foot, and asked, "Does it still hurt?"Xavier's face immediately crumpled as he cried out in pain, "Ouch, ouch, ouch! Bro, are you trying to kill me? I sacrificed my life to save your ex-wife. Is this how you repay me?""You seem to be in high spirits. Looks like you're completely fine. In that case, stop telling everybody that you saved her.”Stefan's voice was cold, as if he did not want to accept the fact that Xavier had saved Renee's life.After all, the status of life savior carried a lot of weight. In ancient times, the rescued victim may even repay the savior with personal favors. Stefan felt very unhappy thinking about it."That's right!" Christopher chimed in, "This brat even wants her to take care of his everyday ne

    Xavier gulped hard and quickly said, "There are professional employees in the hospital that can care for me. You guys are busy. You really don't have to do this.""I'm serious. You saved her, so I must do something for you to repay you. You're not allowed to refuse!" Stefan's attitude was firm. He urged, "Open your mouth and drink the soup!"Xavier had no choice but to give in.Before he had finished the first spoonful, Stefan was already feeding him another. In the end, Xavier was so full that he felt like his stomach was gonna burst.Oh god, what sin had he committed to deserve this? He saved someone's life and even broke his leg doing so, but he now had to be a tool in those two's argument. He felt like the most miserable man in the world!When Renee saw that he had finished the soup, she immediately brought out an apple, peeled it with a knife, and handed it to him. "Having some fruit after dinner is good for digestion."Stefan urged again, "Eat the fruit."Xavier was speech

    After Renee left the hospital, she was still furious.“He's so annoying! What is wrong with him? He's so worried that I would ruin his precious friend's life. He's totally looking down on me!”She took a taxi back to the Hunt Villa.Margaret was already there. She was rubbing her hands anxiously.When she finally saw Renee, she immediately rushed over. "Ms. Ren, what's going on? How did Everheart Manor burn down while I was out doing grocery? Why did you ask me to wait for you at the Hunt Villa?”The tears she had been holding back came pouring out when Renee saw Margaret.Like a child, she threw herself into Margaret's arms and cried, "Margaret, what took you so long? Our house is gone! Our home is gone!""Don't cry, Ms. Ren. Don't cry!" Margaret gently stroked Renee's back and comforted her, "Don't be sad. Our home will never be gone. Home is where you and I are. So what if the house burned down? We can just rebuild it. Don't cry!""It's all gone..." Renee bawled her eyes out

    Renee’s voice was flat, and her attitude was far from polite. She looked like she was ready for a fight.She was not the old Renee anymore. She did not have to be considerate of Francine's feelings now. If Francine dared to make a scene, she would definitely retaliate!However, to Renee's astonishment, Francine actually smiled at her warmly."Can't I just come to see how my daughter-in-law is doing? I don't really need a specific reason to come here.”"Huh?"Renee's eyes widened, and her jaw dropped.Did Francine hit her head or something? She had always just called Renee the harbinger of tragedy and she had never been kind to her, yet today...Margaret said happily, "Ms. Ren, Madam Francine is so kind. She even brought you a gift. Do you want to open it and have a look?""Uhh, I..."Before Renee could respond, Margaret had already opened the beautifully packed present."Wow, it's a sapphire necklace. It's so beautiful! It must be really expensive!"Margaret was just like a

    Francine felt that, since she had humbled herself considerably to make this suggestion, Renee would surely be grateful and agree to it.After all, not long ago, she would do anything just to remain in the Hunt family...Renee did not respond. She merely laughed so hard that she had tears in her eyes.She never knew that the high and mighty Francine Milford had so much talent as a comedian. Renee simply could not stop laughing!Francine was a bit unhappy. She finally could not keep up the pretense anymore. Her tone was impolite as she asked, "Why are you laughing? Give me an answer! Let me tell you, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss it, it's gone. Don't be ungrateful!"Renee fought back the laughter. Her curved eyes gradually turned cold. She replied equally impolitely, “Madam Francine, I thought I'd made it clear to you. I never thought of going back after I dumped your son. Even if your son kneels and begs me, the possibility is still zero. And I sure as hell

    Renee could never have imagined that, one day, her ex-mother-in-law and her nanny would be on the same side, scheming to make her get back together with her scumbag ex-husband.Renee could not stand it anymore. She went to the kitchen and brought out a lemon pie to relieve her craving.As soon as the pie was placed on the table, the fragrance spread. Francine could smell it too."That smells good! Did you make that?"Francine could not help being attracted to the smell.She went to the dining room and was surprised to see the lemon pie on the dining table."Do you want a piece?"Renee had already cut a piece for herself and was ready to dig in.She had been craving sour food lately due to her pregnancy. She could not wait to start eating.Francine looked apprehensive, but she took a piece anyway.After taking a bite, her eyes immediately tripled in size."Did... did you really make this? It's so good!"She no longer cared that she was a lady of a rich family. She could hard

    "Your daughter-in-law?"A playful expression crept onto Haze's handsome face.So the well-dressed woman in front of him was Francine Milford, Renee's former mother-in-law."As far as I know, Ms. Everheart is currently single. It's a bit inappropriate for you to claim to be her mother-in-law like this.""What do you know?"Francine raised her chin high and said, "If she's my daughter-in-law for a day, she's my daughter-in-law for a lifetime. Until the day she remarries, no one can replace my position as the “mother-in-law”."Haze put his hands in his pockets and chuckled. “In that case, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. I'm actually here to take Ms. Everheart to meet my parents. If everything goes well, she'll have a new mother-in-law soon."Francine already had an impending sense of crisis before this, but after hearing what Haze said, the sense of crisis became even stronger. She immediately interrogated him, "Who are you? Who are your parents? What's your relationship with Re

    "Hurry up and explain to her, then!" Amber said hurriedly. "Matt, you're close to her. You know Ms. Everheart and Ms. Osborne would never do that on purpose. Try to persuade her to let this go, and then you can immediately set them free.""I don't have a say in this." Mateo shook his head, pretending to be helpless. "You know how much Luneth dotes on her son. Ms. Everheart pinned him to the ground and beat him up. His head got injured and started bleeding. I heard it's a large cut with a lot of stitches. We can't let it go just like that.""But you can't—" Amber wanted to say more, but Liam interrupted her. He looked at Mateo, his eyes cold and fierce. "I know you set them up. Just be frank. Why did you do that?" "See?" Mateo sighed. He pretended to be aggrieved as he looked at Amber. "The guy you like is sinister. I kindly helped him, but he didn't thank me. He even accused me of setting this up… He always sees the worst in people. He criticized me in front of you and sowed di

    Liam immediately noticed something wrong. He asked Mateo fiercely, "What do you mean?""Calm down." Mateo put away his gun and placed it back around his waist. "They broke the rules and barged into the orchard. Plus, they hurt Luneth's child. So, I locked them up for the time being."He appeared calm, as if he was discussing what he had eaten for dinner. He didn't feel that he had been over the line. "Go to hell!" Liam finally failed to hold himself back. He rushed over and grabbed Mateo's neck fiercely. "You can harm me, but how dare you harm them!"At the same time, Mateo's subordinates raised their guns and aimed them at Liam. The recently eased atmosphere immediately became tense again."Hey, don't!" Amber, all tensed up, braced herself to try and stop them. Even so, she was mentally exhausted."What? You want to strangle me?" Mateo was fearless. He grinned deviously and teased, "Cool it. I just locked them up, but they didn't suffer. They're fine. If you harm me, though, I

    Livid, Mateo pulled the trigger without hesitation. However, he moved the gun less than an inch. The bullet passed by Liam's ear and hit an orange behind him.The fruit immediately blew up, its juices splashing on Liam's face."Aaaah!" Amber, terrified, trembled. Her eyes turned red, and she hurriedly tried to plead with Mateo. "Matt, cool it! Aren't you and Liam friends? You guys drank and chatted together in the past. You were so close to each other. How could you do this to him? Hurry up and put the gun away! If it goes off accidentally, it'll be over!"However, Mateo ignored her. His eyes were red as he glared at Liam. "Did you see the orange behind you? Let go of her now! If not, I'll blow up your head just like I did to that orange!""Is that all you got?" Liam taunted. He refused to let Amber go. He whispered to Amber, "Watch well. If he shoots me today, promise me not to marry such a man. I can use my life to knock some sense into you.""No!" Amber shook her head. Liam

    "What bad timing!" Mateo's indifferent voice came from behind Amber.Amber turned around and saw Mateo with a team of armed soldiers. Terrified, she quickly put some distance between her and Liam. She stammered an explanation. "Matt… It's not what you think. Liam and I came here to look for people. Ms. Everheart and Ms. Osborne are gone. Liam couldn't find them and guessed they might be in the orchard. He wasn't familiar with the orchard and asked me to guide him."Mateo looked livid, but still cracked a gentle smile. "Silly, you don't have to be scared. I know you're prudent. He must have forced you to come here. I don't blame you."He extended his hand and beckoned Amber toward him. "Come here. You're my fiancee. You should stand with me.""I…" Amber bit her lip—Mateo was right. She kept her head low, about to walk to him.But in the next second, Liam firmly grabbed her wrist. "You can't go!" Liam held Amber's wrist tightly and shot Mateo a challenging look."When did Amb

    Liam could only see through Amber's true thoughts if she showed her true self to him. "No, I do like you. I love you the most, and I want to marry you. But you neither like me nor want to marry me. You love freedom and Ms. Everheart. You love and yearn for the kind of life ordinary people like. So, I could only choose to give you up and let you get what you want. What else do you want me to do?" Amber was generally shy and reserved, but when Liam drove her anxious, she rambled a lot."Whatever I want is my business. You don't need to sacrifice yourself to grant my wish!" Liam held Amber's shoulders, acting like a kind senior. He tried to persuade her in earnest. "Marriage isn't a joke. Think it through. Do you like and know Mateo well? You won't be happy after marrying him, given the savage culture around here. And can you divorce him easily?""Matt will be nice to me. Even if he changes his mind, he'll still be nice to me because…my father is Benjamin," Amber replied.She chose

    Being a sensitive woman, Amber immediately noticed Liam's displeasure. She kept her head lower and explained carefully, "I want a chance to choose again… I want to choose another person to fall in love with. You know that Matt and I grew up together. We're childhood friends. He likes me and always protects me without asking for anything back. I feel that it's happier to marry a person who loves me instead of marrying someone far beyond my reach."For the first time, she expressed the exhaustion she felt from her relationship with Liam. She no longer wanted to be the one who kept fawning over him. She wanted to give up and relax by being the one who was loved and adored in a relationship."Tsk!" Liam snorted arrogantly. "You don't know Mateo. He's not a nice guy. He's just good at pretending. Maybe it's just his means to get what he wants, but you assume that he loves and wants to protect you."Liam hadn't made that statement to purposely put Mateo down. After standing against Mate

    Liam focused on holding Amber's hand and leading her through the orange grove. At the same time, he carefully scanned the ground and trees to find any related clues left by Renee and Leia."I don't care what others say, because I didn't do anything wrong," he said indifferently. "I hope you'll feel the same. I don't think you need to stop being my friend after choosing to marry Mateo. Am I not the friend you like the most?""That's different," Amber said.She followed Liam passively. At first, she couldn't adapt to it. After walking briefly, she felt better and found it easier to do. "Although I'm not good at my studies, I know men and women should keep a polite distance. You can't take my hand and sound righteous at the same time," she mumbled."Why not?" Liam retorted firmly. "When I was young, I always held my sister's hand wherever we went. I'm holding your hand because this fog is thick and the ground is slippery. I'm afraid of being separated from you. Just walk with me. St

    Liam walked ahead of Amber, then turned to glance at her. He faked a smile and asked, "What's the matter? Are you worried that I might take advantage of you?" "No, of course not!" Amber quickly shook her head and pushed her scarf up. It had fallen a little. "I just find it improper," she answered softly.She looked like a typical woman from Southeast Aeos, petite and with a small face. Her skin was tanned, and her facial features weren't very distinct. She was charming and reserved, exuding a girlish pureness. She had put on her country's special traditional clothes. The thick clothes, embroidered with various patterns, wrapped around her petite body and gave her an exotic impression. From afar, she appeared like a colorful oil painting. "Hey, it's not improper. If I wanted to do anything to you, I would've done that long ago. I don't have to wait until now." Liam sounded relaxed and prudent to ease Amber's anxiety."Don't worry. I've always regarded you as my younger siste

    Amber hurriedly turned Liam down. "You can't help with my affairs. I can handle it.""Well, tell me why I can't help you," Liam pressed. "I… I want to sew a wedding gown. And there are a lot of details that I need to add." Amber became competitive for no reason, and added stubbornly, "Your words aren't absolute. Yes, your business is important, but so is mine!""Oh, you want to sew a wedding gown. I can help you with that…" Liam said, relaxed. "Maybe I didn't get to tell you that I went to a small country in Southeast Aeos when I traveled around the world. I got to know a great sewing master. The pictures he sewed looked real like paintings! I found them interesting, so I learned from him. My sewing skills are probably better than yours. I can help you with that.""Really? You can sew?" Amber was full of surprise and admiration. Her eyes lit up. "I can't sew well. I want to learn from a great master too! If you can do it, can you teach me?""Of course!" Liam promised. "Can you he
