Chapter 41

Author: Mizuki Sei
"Whether or not your figure is worthy of being shown in public and admired is my business and mine only."

Stefan stared at Renee with burning eyes as he said that, and there was a hint of possessiveness in his tone that even he did not notice himself.

"You're my wife," he reminded her. "Don't forget that. It's your most basic duty to appear as dignified as possible. Dressing the way you do now is completely indecent. In fact, you're only attracting unwanted attention this way!"

Stefan thought of those men just now who had been ogling Renee as if their eyes were going to fall out of the sockets, and he felt strangely furious. He even had the urge to gauge those men's eyes out!

"Put this on!" he ordered, taking off his coat and roughly wrapping it around Renee's body.

"You're acting like my dad!" Renee laughed, but her charming eyes were full of mockery and disdain. "I'm not sure if you noticed that it's no longer the Victorian era, Mr. Hunt. I'm the master of my body, so if I

    Inside the exhibition box shone a pink peach-shaped pendant, dazzling the eyes that saw it. "As you can see," said the host, "this peach-shaped pendant was cut from a single whole piece of pink crystal, and it was given an incredibly romantic name—Everlasting Heart…" "This is far from being a normal crystal pendant," the host continued. "Legend has it that it was specially made for the adopted daughter of the king of a small kingdom in Varangia, which means that this… is a royal treasure, ladies and gentlemen. It is absolutely one of its kind in this world. Currently, it's being valued at around three million dollars!" The host's colorful descriptions endowed the already luxurious pendant with even more hype and splendor. The audience's continuous gasps in awe were enough to show how highly regarded this crystal pendant was. Numerous ladies even cast an envious look at Charlotte. "So," Micah took Charlotte's hand and asked in a groveling manner, "do you like this surprise that

    The vain Charlotte was explosively enraged by Renee's words."Are you so mad with jealousy that you completely lost your mind, you gold digger?! My boyfriend spent millions of dollars for that pendant! How could it possibly be a fake?! You know, I should wreck that foul mouth of yours for spewing bullshit!"And with that, without a thought of consideration for her reputation as a rich socialite, Charlotte stomped her feet and hurled herself toward Renee.Without a change in her expression, Renee effortlessly dodged Charlotte, which caused Charlotte to lose her balance and fall straight to the ground.The audience roared in laughter at the sight of such a comical scene.Stefan's face turned severe. The gloominess of his expressions looked like the rumbling thundercloud that warned of the dangerous rage that was about to explode.Renee Everheart… What was she going to do now?! Was it not bad enough that she dressed so inappropriately, attracting all the unwanted attention? Yet now

    "This is my wedding ring, which symbolizes my marriage to my husband. Although it might not be the most priceless item here, it is still endowed with a special meaning. Now, I would like to donate it, and I hope it would garner a good price and help as many people who needed help as possible."This move instantly stirred the crowd into a flurry. How could she so easily decide to donate her wedding ring?! Some people praised her generosity and charitable nature and for not binding herself to sentimental attachment to objects. But others were beginning to suspect if the rumors about the rift in the marriage between Stefan and Renee were true after all.Stefan, who was right in the center of the audience, exuded a chilling aura that warned people from approaching him. His dashing face betrayed no signs of emotions. Meanwhile, Liam could not be more delighted. With a wicked smile, he uttered the following words as if they were cuts from a dagger aimed at Stefan's heart, "Tsk tsk tsk,

    Renee could have just left then and there.

    Stefan and Renee both went on stage. Under the dazzling light, they looked like a match made in heaven. The host discussed the issues between her and Stefan as the crowd cheered for them. Renee's sharp gaze swept through the crowd as she tried to find the problem. However, everyone seemed normal, and no one appeared suspicious. 'Did I mishear it? Or is that a prank?' she thought to herself. At this moment, she heard the host say, "Let us congratulate Mr. Hunt for successfully auctioning off the ring for fifteen million dollars, and we will have our presenter hand the ring to him." Stefan was gracefully presented with the display box containing the diamond ring by the tall and stunning presenter in a white gown. "Let's have Mr. Hunt put the diamond ring on his wife's finger again. We are all here gathered around to witness the consistent and beautiful love between Mr. and Mrs. Hunt!" The host had unexpectedly become a wedding host, as it seemed he was hosting Stefan and Re

    When Stefan woke up, he realized he was lying on the hospital bed. The nurse came in and was glad to see him awake. "Mr. Hunt, you're finally awake. You've been in a coma for an entire day." "An entire day?" 'Shit!' he cursed inwardly. His blood phobia was getting so serious that he kept fainting at critical times. The last thing he remembered before blacking out was Renee getting shot. At the thought of this, his heart tightened. He grabbed the nurse's arm and asked coldly, "How's Renee? Is she okay?" Stefan's sudden movement caught the nurse off guard. "You mean Mrs. Hunt? She only needed a slight patching up. She left after bringing you here yesterday," she said cautiously. "A slight patching up?" When he heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that her injuries weren't as serious as he had imagined them to be. "Yes. after she was done, she left with Mr. Osborne," the nurse added. "She left with Liam?!" When Stefan heard this, he instantly asked to c

    "Stefan, put me down. We're not that close with each other!" Renee said as she struggled to break free from the man.She was embarrassed that she couldn't beat him despite her skills and reputation."Stop moving. You're hurt." Stefan shot back with a poker face as he carried her to the bathroom.She was as light as a feather, which stirred a huge urge in him to protect her.Renee was a little speechless. Her arm was only slightly injured. It wasn't like she had broken her leg or waist that she couldn't care for herself. She became worried when she saw that he had not intended to leave after he had placed her inside the bathtub."Stefan, you're not really going to shower me, right? I'm warning you, don't you dare take advantage of me!"A sly smile appeared on the man's face after he had placed her inside the bathtub. His slender finger hooked underneath her chin, and he asked, "What if I want to? After all, the bathtub is huge. It has enough space for two people.""No!" Renee shouted wi

    "What happened?" Stefan called out as he hung up the phone and went straight to the bathroom door. Just as he was about to open the door, he heard Renee's panicked voice coming from inside, "I'm fine. Don't come in!" And a series of loud banging sounds followed afterward. It doesn't seem like she was fine. After moments of hesitation, he pushed the door and entered. "Ah! Who told you to come in? Get out!" Renee was standing up in the bathtub. She quickly wrapped a towel around her naked body when she saw that he had entered. Although her movements were quick, he still saw her body. He froze in place and swallowed harshly, feeling his lips turn dry. He hadn't known that she was so stunning! He wondered why it had taken him so long to realize that he had been living with a hidden treasure for the previous four years. After a while, he finally calmed down. Only then did he realize that the clothes on the rack had fallen, which meant Renee's clothes and towel had dropp

    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

    "You're playing with fire!" Justin leaned close to Renee's ears and said fiercely, "What do you think there is in the wine? Maybe I'm not someone who will take liberty on women, but I can't promise that the wine won't make me so." "So, you're saying that the wine…" Suddenly, Renee realized the wine was not as simple as she thought. She also understood why Rose had behaved in such a mysterious manner. "Stay…away from me!" Suddenly, she became frightened and wanted to keep some distance from Justin. She knew that people could not be trusted completely, especially under the effects of chemical reactions. Things would certainly get out of control. Justin probably did not want to do anything to her, but both of them would lose their minds under the effect of the wine and do something that would fill them with regret. The only way to prevent such an incident was to avoid each other."You want to stay away from me, but it's too late now. I'm no saint. I'm just a normal guy!"Just

    "I'm so thirsty!" The burning sensation of the wine made Renee thirsty. She wanted to drink some water.In the dark, she heard some rustling. The next second, something was on her lips. It seemed to be someone else's lips. She wondered if someone had secretly kissed her."Who are you?" Renee grabbed the person in front of her and interrogated angrily, "How dare you kiss me without my permission! Do you know who I am? I'll cut off your lips!""Let's see if you can do that or not." The man sounded dull and drunk, but he was also overbearing.Although Renee was drunk, she could discern who it was. She called out in the dark and tried to confirm her doubt. "Haze…?" "Yeah, it's me," Justin admitted, but he did not plan to let her go. He used a more overbearing manner and trapped her between him and the door."What do you want?" Renee panicked. She wanted to kick him away, but she did not resist when she learned that it was Justin. After she had done so many things to hurt him, s

    The servant walked forward with trepidation and helped Justin back to his room. Austin's eyes were dark. He whispered to his assistant, who nodded and immediately carried out his order.After two glasses of strong wine, Renee felt dizzy and could not stand steadily. "It's weird. Is this wine this strong? I just had two glasses of it, but I feel quite dizzy." It was hard for her to exit the hall. She could not stand properly, so she supported herself against the wall."Ms. Everheart, you didn't seem well. Let me help you to get some rest." Austin's assistant caught up to her and stood behind her. He even sounded respectful. "It's… fine. I can go back to my room." Renee waved; she didn't want to trouble others. Besides, she did not want others to see how miserable she was. She had assumed that she was good at drinking and would not get drunk, but it seemed like she had overestimated herself. After two glasses of wine, she became quite drowsy. She would not easily leave if s

    Renee blinked and smiled brightly at Justin, asking him, "Are you worried about me?" "No, I'm not worried about you!" Justin said angrily. "I don't want you to get killed here. I can't explain it to your brother and kids. It's hard to handle the three of them."He was not lying. Although he had befriended Quinton, Adie and Abby might make a scene there if they realized that Renee had drunk so much wine at the party. They were witty, always full of ideas.Hence, it was better not to cause trouble. Before they could make a scene and things get out of control, Justin must stop Renee. He wasn't worried about her at all. "So, you're not worried about me?" Renee's gaze turned dull as she sighed. "It looks like you didn't forgive me. So, I must drink this glass of wine." Something was wrong with Renee, or perhaps she just wanted to torture herself. It seemed like she insisted on drinking the wine. She swung off Justin's hand and gulped down the wine."You're out of your mind!" Justi

    The aged white wine was strong. Ordinary people would find it hard to drink a glass of it. Yet, Renee had drunk two glasses of it consecutively. It was a little dangerous. Everyone at the dining table was initially watching the fun, but they showed Renee some pity after she drank two glasses of wine consecutively. After wiping her lips clean, Renee staggered and said to Justin, "Let me toast to you now. I've wronged you the most." Justin, sitting there, said with a poker face, "You don't have to say sorry to me. We don't hold each other any grudge. After all, we can't make others fall in love with us.""No, I must apologize to you. It's for my sake." After that, Renee used a bigger glass and filled it with wine."Whatever!" Justin frowned and ignored Renee. He had no idea what was wrong with her. He had yielded and let her off, but she stubbornly wanted to keep drinking the wine.He wondered if she had forgotten the fact that she had just recovered from a serious illness. She

    Suddenly, Justin became mature and stopped making jokes. He talked steadily and was no longer emotional. It filled Austin with worry because it made him feel like Justin was an emotionless robot.In comparison, he liked Justin's previous self better. At that time, Justin was simple and sentimental. He was the grandson Austin doted on the most.Sophia grinned and commented, "Dad, you don't have to worry about Justin. Men will change. Previously, he was just a childish kid even though he was in his twenties. He didn't know how to see through people's pretense. But he's all grown up now. He knows what's right or wrong. That's a great thing!" As a mother, she naturally did not want her son to get hurt. Although she favored Renee and wanted the latter to be her daughter-in-law, she would give up since Renee had let her son down and harmed him. All she wanted was to see Renee get away from her son."Yes, you're right. People need to grow up. He has grown up a lot lately, but the price

    After a while, a servant quickly came back with a bottle of wine tied with a piece of red cloth. "Sir, Madam, this bottle of white wine was brewed more than ten years ago. It comes with a rich taste and is strong. I'm sure it's suitable for Ms. Everheart to toast to everyone as a form of apology.""That's good. That's what I want." Rose accepted the heavy bottle of wine. Although it was yet to be unscrewed, she could smell its pungent scent. "I won't easily let anyone drink this. Plus… Believe it or not, a glass of this wine can knock out anyone here." Rose carried the bottle of wine and walked around the table. Finally, she stopped in front of Renee. "I'm letting a sinner like you enjoy such a great thing today. You must drink all of it. You can't waste it.""Huh? Does she have to drink it all? I'm afraid she'll vomit from drinking.""People will lose themselves with only three to five glasses of this wine. If they drink half of it, they might get alcohol poisoning no matter

    If any Baldwin demanded an explanation from Renee, she would not resent them."Fine, I won't go easy on you since you said so." Rose laughed recklessly, looking malicious. Everyone knew Rose was fierce and malicious. But none of them said anything, including Justin. They behaved like onlookers and wanted to see how Rose would punish Renee. "Please go ahead." Renee nodded and sounded very calm. "Don't worry. Regardless, you were the only woman my dear grandnephew had loved and wanted to marry. So, I won't be harsh on you. If not, he won't forgive me." At that point, Rose purposely paused and wanted to see how Justin would react.However, Justin merely sat there indifferently and had no intention to get Renee out of the predicament. Hence, Rose became bolder. "Well, let's do this. You've wronged not only Justin but everyone in my family. Since you're here to apologize, you should toast to all of us. Then, we can forget about this."After that, Rose turned to Austin and asked
