Chapter 496

Author: Mizuki Sei
Renee grimaced and hurriedly let Julian go. Then, she got up and made herself look presentable. She said coldly, "Are you saying you made that glass of Blue Flame earlier?"

Julian looked nonchalant as he remained seated on the beach sand. Julian propped his arms and looked up and Renee. Then, he asked in reply, "What? Did you think Stefan made it for you?"

Renee rolled her eyes coldly before shifting her gaze to the deep dark sea. She pursed her lips and said nothing.

Julian explained, "Stefan made this drink for me before. I pestered him for a long time before he gave me the recipe. He said it was your creation. I found the drink interesting. The heat of vodka and the coolness of the mind are the most incompatible things. However, they created such a magical chemical reaction together… Well, it's just like you and Stefan."

Renee snorted disdainfully. "You're overthinking. I didn't think much and concocted it on a whim. I didn't remember the recipe until you reminded me of it."

    "Me?"Renee furrowed her brows, unable to figure out Julian's plan.Renee was just a stranger to Stefan and had nothing to do with the Hunt family. How could Julian ask her for help? Julian must be overestimating her kindness. Julian continued with a grave expression. "Six months ago, I stepped down as Chief R&D Officer at KCL Holdings and sold some of my shares. KCL Holdings has changed ownership now. I heard that the new chairman is also from a technical background but is more business-minded than me. He's going to carry out a radical reform of the whole group, from all levels of staff, internal management, and external partners. I'm no longer as influential after stepping down from my position…"Renee arched her brow and said nonchalantly, "A business is like a kingdom. Changes are inevitable, even for a prosperous kingdom. So what exactly are you trying to convey?""I'm a free spirit. I love freedom and don't want to be involved in these business disputes. I don't care about

    From Julian's words, Renee could tell that Hunt Enterprise was in trouble this time. Stefan had gone missing at such a critical moment, and his fate was unknown. Even if Stefan were alive, he would probably be in a difficult situation. Even so, what did it have to do with her?The rise and fall of an empire was normal. Besides, Hunt Enterprise was the industry leader for many years. It was only normal for Hunt Enterprise to decline after so long. Even if she promised Julian to run the business in Stefan's stead, she could not restore the declining business. However, Renee was curious to know who had the guts to plot against the heir to the Hunt family twice in a row. As she thought of that, she opened her laptop and looked for information about Tristan's murder years ago.Unfortunately, there was very little information about Tristan on the internet. There was almost nothing.Renee thought the Hunt family might have specifically restricted public information to keep Tristan's

    Renee opened the door and was overjoyed to see who had arrived at her doorstep. It was none other than Aiden! "Mommy, it's been a long time. I miss you so much! Hug me!"The handsome little Aiden opened his arms towards Renee calmly. He was neat and clean. He seemed safe and did not fall into the wrong hands earlier.Aiden's arrival took Renee by surprise, but soon anger filled her. She crossed her arms and began to lecture Adie with a stern face. "Adie. Did you have a lot of fun before coming to me?""I was only away from Sun Island for a short time. How dare you? Did you think we wouldn’t be worried? Were you trying to make me angry?""Hey, Mommy. Calm down. I'm back now…" Aiden shrugged indifferently. He expertly jumped into Renee's arms and put on the most innocent and cute look on his face. He looked at Renee with his big, shiny eyes and blinked adorably. "Mommy, you know me well. What's there to worry about? You're getting too worked up... But I know that's because you l

    Aiden behaved this time. He knew Renee was furious, so he listened to her orders obediently. Aiden got down on his knees at once and held out his hands cooperatively. He faced Renee's anger calmly. "Mommy, go ahead. You should calm down after hitting me. Don't stay angry. Anger is bad for your health. It's okay for me to be in pain.""You're still being slick, aren't you?"Renee got furious and hit Aiden's palm with the ruler. She questioned with a stern tone, "Do you know what you did wrong yet?"It was a painful hit. A red mark immediately emerged on Aiden's tender skin. Even so, Aiden remained strong. Although his eyes were full of tears, he did not cry out. He raised his chin and said stubbornly, "I didn't do wrong. What's wrong with protecting Mommy?""Adie!" Renee was so angry that she hit Aiden with the ruler again, harder than the previous time.Renee had no other choice as the little one was getting more and more disobedient each day. She could barely control him anymor

    Renee had previously mentioned to Liam about wanting to see Hunt Enterprise's design for the G6 Chip phone. After all, this phone was important to Hunt Enterprise. The revolutionary new phone would stir the entire technology industry. Once launched, it must only succeed and not fail.Renee wanted to see what Hunt Enterprise had done with the phone design apart from using the G6 Chip provided by KCL Holdings as the core selling point. She wondered if there were any other revolutionary designs.However, high-level business secrets as such were usually well-protected. Stealing it was no small feat. Had Aiden really brought her the design?!If he had, it would be a real relief for her. She must hug the little one and kiss him a few times.Aiden opened his briefcase and took out the document he had sneakily slipped in earlier. He handed it to Renee with a proud look on his face. "Mommy, I'm great, aren't I? You're welcome!"Renee's eyes immediately lit up. She could not wait to see the

    Liam was about to give Aiden a huge lecture, but the little one interrupted him."Daddy Liam, I have a question. Is it wrong wanting to protect Mommy?""Of course not. We're men. It's our duty to protect her.""Do you think I'm just a kid stupid enough to be tricked by the bad guys?""No, of course not. Adie is such a smart boy. You're the one who'll be fooling the bad guys.""That's right… I want to protect Mommy and help her. I can keep myself safe. So what did I do wrong?""Uh..." Liam rubbed his chin and instantly agreed with Aiden. Aiden had a good point.Liam backtracked immediately and advised Renee instead, "I think Adie has a point. His punishment was unfair. Well, don't be angry. I think… Maybe you should apologize to Adie.""Liam!" Renee stomped her feet in anger. "He's just a foolish kid. How can you go along with him? Are you trying to piss me off?!""I'm just being honest. Adie isn't an ordinary child. You should respect him and give him the freedom to play. Don'

    Renee had led a reclusive life in the past few years and focused on her experiments at Sun Island. She was oblivious to the outside world and naturally did not know about Mr. Q's story.She was a little frightened to hear about the mysterious Mr. Q from Liam and quickly pulled Adie aside to check on him carefully. She asked nervously, "Did that… Demon… Or whatever he’s called hurt you or do anything strange to you?""Nope. Mr. Q was nice to me. He gave me whatever I wanted. I asked him to work for you, and he agreed… But he's a little busy lately. He said he had to go out of town. I'll arrange for you two to meet when he's free."Aiden crossed his arms, looking like a leader with everything under his control. Renee furrowed her brows, still feeling puzzled. "It's so strange. Mr. Q is a powerful man. He even made a deal with Briar. Why didn't he hurt Adie? He even promised Adie to be my follower?!"Liam thought it was not a big deal. He randomly guessed, "What else could it be? H

    However, the more Renee behaved this way, the more worrying it was.Liam thought venting negative emotions was necessary. How Renee constantly repressed her emotions might make matters worse in the long run. Therefore, Liam and Leia discussed the need to find a way for Renee to vent.After the discussion, Leia patted her chest and reassured Liam confidently, "Fine. I understand. I'm good at that. Just leave it to me!"Leia finally broke up with William after he was rescued. She had been suffocating anyway and could not wait to vent!At the moment, Renee was sitting in a conference room at Azure Group headquarters. It was an important meeting with the company's executives.Renee was not nominated to hold any position in Azure Group over the past few years. Liam had made all the major decisions as the company president. Even so, the executives knew Renee was the soul of the company.Azure Group was just a small technology company in the industry. Without Renee's effort behind the s

    Liam hit the nail on the head. "If you informed Xavier to join the rescue, you must be lying. It's illogical! But it's weirder if it's the other way around. He should have informed his buddy to come to the rescue instead of the guy's rival in love. Am I right?"Justin leaned against the seat and said calmly, "How strange. Why is it illogical if I informed Xavier to come here?""If you learn that your beloved woman is in danger, you'll come to her rescue immediately instead of wasting time with your rival's buddy. Telling your rival is risky, too. He might even snatch the chance to save the damsel in distress. Am I right?" Liam analyzed logically, his logic irrefutable. Justin spread his hands helplessly. "No wonder you've been Phoenix's lackey for so many years. You're meticulous. Yes, I found out from Xavier. He hoped I could come with my men to fight the fort. He knows that among many families, only mine could acquire such a powerful rescue team."In the past, among the thre

    Previously, Liam felt that Benjamin was very kind to his daughter Amber despite his aloofness. Amber should be his weakness. Gradually, Liam learned that Benjamin was a naturally aloof man who always weighed the pros and cons. No one would ever be his weakness unless it affected his interests. If Amber were truly his weakness, he would first consider her lifetime happiness. Instead, he cared about his interests and reputation. He had quickly agreed to let Amber marry an unsuitable match. "He has no weakness…" Justin touched his chin and frowned contemplatively, then sighed. "It'll be very hard to handle him if he has no weakness. He's crazy and desperate. If we fight him, I'm afraid things will be out of control.""No, we won't fight him," Renee said calmly. "Plus, he has a weakness. It isn't a human, but his interest and power."Liam spent a long time to find that out, but Renee saw through Benjamin the first time she confronted him. At that time, Amber challenged Benjamin to

    "It's because Phoenix and I share a telepathic connection!" Justin remained carefree and sounded ambiguous."Telepathic? Why didn't you say it was a tarot reading?" Liam glared at Justin grumpily."Do you take me as a kid? Stop using such a bizarre excuse! If you share that with her, you would be the one who had kids with her."Justin's expression grew hideous because of Liam's nasty words. He complained to Renee, who was sitting beside him. "Phoenix, your lackey is fierce as if I'm indebted to him. He and I don't hold grudges against each other. Plus, I saved him. Why does he find me an eyesore?""Don't take him too seriously." Renee remained indifferent. "He's just worried about me and that you might hold some bad ideas about me.""Well, his worries aren't wrong." Justin didn't hide his feelings for Renee. "Yeah, I do have feelings for you. I wouldn't waste so much time and make such a huge effort to come here to rescue you if I don't want anything to happen between us… Now th

    "What do you mean?" Renee was confused. She looked toward the soldiers, and found them familiar. "They're… They're…"Justin didn't reply to her, and instead said to the high-spirited team, "Don't just stand there! Salute!"The soldiers saluted Renee in unison and shouted, "General!""General? Me?" Renee asked in disbelief, her eyes widening even more. "Of course!" Justin smirked and added, "Did you forget? This is the wedding gift my grandpa got for you. He's been training them recently. Now, it's finally the time to make great use of them. They performed well this time and didn't embarrass the Baldwin army.""Oh, I remember that…" Renee instantly remembered how that army came about.Back then, she occasionally went to North City with Justin. The entire Baldwin family liked her, especially Austin. He insisted on her getting married to Justin and gave her the most elite army team as a wedding gift without any hesitation. At that time, Renee loved that team very much. She also s

    Renee shook her head and frowned. She asked Xavier solemnly, "You weren't the one who spoke just now. So… Who else came with you?" They were tied up just now, so Renee could not see who threatened their enemies behind them. However, she was sure that Xavier didn't come alone for the rescue."Who else do you hope came with me?" Xavier smiled and asked Renee curiously."I don't hold such hope. All I know is that no matter who came to save us, they wanted some value in us in exchange," Renee said, her tone calm but her words cruel.Of course, one person would appear in her mind. Yet, she was too timid to hold such hope. Besides, that wasn't his voice either. Someone else must have come with Xavier. "Who else could it be? It must be someone powerful to outflank Macsen's men. I'm sure you know who that is," Leia said meaningfully. "He finally did something good.""Stop saying nonsense since you don't know." Xavier tried to stop Leia because of the complicated situation. It couldn't

    "It's you?" Leia's eyes went wide. She looked at the man before her in surprise. Everything happened so suddenly, making her seriously doubt if it was her illusion before she got killed.It was none other than Xavier, her only regret before she died. "Yes, it's me!" Xavier hugged Leia, feeling sorry for her. He kissed her lips, which had gone pale because of her fear. He kept kissing her as if he had finally found the treasure that he had lost. Surprise and sadness overcame him. "Luckily, I came in time. You're still alive… I'm sorry to have made you suffer. I'm a useless boyfriend!"When his passion grew, he ignored the rest and kissed Leia passionately."Mm…" The kissing made Leia dizzy. She frowned in embarrassment and turned away. "What's going on? What are you doing here?""I got news that you're in trouble." Guilt gleamed in Xavier's eyes. "I should have paid more attention to you. I wasn't worried when you told me that you went on a trip with Renee. After all, she's

    While Macsen was talking, his subordinate reached Leia and grabbed her neck with one hand. A light was reflected on the shiny machete; it seemed he was about to slash Leia.Frightened, Leia hunched and screamed in terror. "Ah, no! Save me, Liam! Ren, save me!" "Stop!" Reia yelled at Macsen, anxious. "What do you want to let us go? Tell me, I'll do it!"At first, she was carefree. She was fine even if she got killed and couldn't be bothered to resist. However, she grew restless since her friend was about to be harmed. She would rather take Leia's place. "Stop stalling for time. You've used this trick too many times tonight. Do you think I'll be fooled again?" Macsen sneered. "You're too vicious and nearly bit off my neck. I'm just avenging myself!""Then, you're asking for trouble!" Renee's gaze grew sharp. "Listen. If you harm her, you'll die very miserably right away!""Hahaha! Stop bluffing!" Macsen laughed. "People who can save you now can't even protect themselves. Plus, th

    "What?" When Leia heard that, she swallowed and her hair stood on end. Although she didn't know what it meant, using human skin was terrifying. "You guys look confused. I'm sure you don't know what that is…" Macsen was calmer since his neck was bandaged. He said generously to his subordinate, "Come and explain it to them. Prepare them for fear that the lamp might not be bright enough because they're too nervous.""Okay, boss!" Macsen's subordinate nodded. He walked to them and said arrogantly, "Well, we'll use a machete to skin people from head to toe to make lamps. The light from these lamps is blurry and beautiful. It's a top and valuable item.""That's crazy!" After listening to that explanation, a chill ran down Leia's spine. She gnashed her teeth and said to Macsen, "Are you out of your mind? That's a crazy habit! Aren't you worried the victims might come demanding your life in the middle of the night?"The people here were used to a human lamp, so it became common among th

    The three of them rolled their eyes in unison and looked speechless."Look, Liam. She's the top love-struck idiot. She'll never learn though she'd suffered much." Leia shook her head and sighed. She felt sorry for Renee's bad luck and disappointing actions.Although Leia was a love-struck fool herself, she was better than Renee. She would quickly retreat if she found anything wrong unless the guy shamelessly pestered her. Also, he had to show his sincerity. Only then would she forgive him. Renee was way worse. She suffered countless times because of one single man, but she didn't even hate him. She even wanted to ask him if they could start over.No one could be as "humble" as her.Renee used to be a bright and awesome figure, and it seemed like there was nothing she could not resolve. Yet, she lost herself several times because of a man. It infuriated Leia. Leia was not alone in feeling that way. Liam shared her sentiments and gnashed his teeth furiously. "Seriously, I wonde
