Chapter 534

Author: Mizuki Sei
However, the woman still chose to reject his offer. "Maybe some other day. I'm getting tired, so I'll go get some rest."

Despite believing the man's occupation, she still chose to lock these secrets away. There were just some things she'd rather hide than face…

Stefan didn't push her any further but was still quite devastated. He wasn't sure if Renee was depressed over his 'death', but he knew for a fact that she wasn't as happy as she seemed on the outside.

It was as if she was an onion, wrapping herself in layers upon layers to turn herself into someone everyone would like.

"The past few years weren't kind to you, were they?" Stefan asked in a deep and solemn voice.

Renee smiled bitterly, being completely honest with him. "Yeah."

The only people in the room were herself, and this escort, who was merely an acquaintance. Without her loved ones and rivals around, she no longer wanted to play pretend. Pretending to be depressed might be easy, but trying to fake happiness was just…

    "What are you even saying? I literally just had a good night's sleep. Nothing else." Renee said as she placed the sunflowers into a glass vase.The yellow sunflowers looked golden under the gentle sunlight, giving off a soft scent. These flowers were just right, as it wasn't too sharp, like a rose, nor was it too simple, like an orchid."You know, I didn't expect this at all. I guess this is what they mean by 'don't judge a book by its cover', but that little escort is a professional therapist!""He was able to come up with an accurate analysis with just one drawing! He's also a master hypnotist too! I just… feel really secure and comfortable with him."Just then, Aiden opened his bedroom door with a fuzzy teddy bear in his arms, walking out to the living room groggily."Mommy, you're finally back… I heard from Aunt Lei that you were very busy and had to work overtime. You must be tired…"The little one then gave Renee a big hug, patting her on the head as if she was the child no

    Renee turned around and found that the person speaking was one of her ex in-laws, Stefan's cousin, Charlotte. Back then, Charlotte was the one and only beloved princess of many, and she would always view Renee as a thorn in her flesh. Hence, she naturally never treated her with respect. However, ever since Renee got a divorce, she no longer tolerated this so-called princess' behavior and taught her a few lessons as a result. Thus, Charlotte started restraining herself as well.It had been four years since the two saw each other, so bumping into each other now felt quite unfortunate."It really is you! And here I thought I was hallucinating!" Charlotte exclaimed. She was wearing extremely expensive attire, consisting of Chanel clothing, with a pink Hermes purse that likely cost thousands, and a pair of beige colored heels, which were limited-edition Givenchy. It was as if she was deliberately trying to flaunt her wealth to the world.Renee looked the woman up and down. She foun

    "You'll have to check your abilities before you try to attack me. If you dare to act rudely again, you'll be sorry!" Renee warned as she loomed over the woman, her expression as frosty as ice. Charlotte instantly deflated, lying on the ground a mess silently. She thought to herself, 'How is this woman even cockier than before?! It's been four years, so hasn't she learned to tone down a little?! It's like I can't afford to offend her at all!'Could it be that her lover gave her the ability to act so recklessly?'"You wicked lady! How dare you bully my mommy? I'll bite you!" Charlotte's son, Casey, immediately lunged over crazily, opening his mouth wide open as he grabbed onto Renee's arm."Let go of my mommy, you mad dog!" Aiden was not an easy target either, as he angrily pushed Casey to the ground, then sat on top of him."How dare you bite my beloved mommy?! I'd say you don't treasure your teeth, so let me pluck them all out for you!""Wahhhh, Mommy! Mommy, save me!" Casey wa

    Although Aiden was asking a question, he was clearly forcing the principal to pick a side. He just couldn't let his mother get bitten and endure such humilition for no apparent reason. He had to get justice for his mother.The principal cleared her throat, and put on a solemn expression, revealing her stance in front of everyone."Adie, I understand the situation now. You were right to protect your mother, and you were very brave. But you were too reckless and violent when trying to do so. I think you weren't being rational, and that you were technically just as wrong as Casey here. What do you think?""You're right, Miss Principal. I was wrong." Aiden nodded as he blinked innocently, then turned to Casey with an apologetic attitude. "I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have pushed you just now."The principal was absolutely in awe of his understanding and emotional intelligence. This had also change the minds of many surrounding parents, who were quite judgemental a while ago. They even s

    "You… You…" Charlotte felt as if her pride was crushed entirely at this point. Her eyes reddened as she shouted, "Do you think I won't dare to do that?! I'll have you know that my husband loves me a lot! If he finds out that me and my son are being mistreated like this, all of you here will have to pay!"Renee huffed coldly. "If he loves you so, have him come over to stand up for you. I'd really like to see just how powerful this man is for you to act as if you won't face any consequences.""That… If you insist, then! Just wait!" Charlotte decided to go with the flow since it was quite hard to defuse this situation right then. She dialed Zachary's number, speaking in a sickeningly sweet voice. "Babe, someone's attacking me and Casey! Come over quickly. You have to stand up for us!"Back then, her husband would not prioritize her in the slightest, especially being a womanizer. He just so happened to be nearby the kindergarten due to a business meeting. Hearing that his son was

    Everyone froze, especially Charlotte, who didn't know how to read the room. She grabbed Zachary's arm and mumbled, "What are you doing, babe? At least stand up for Casey and me! Why are you kneeling in front of this woman?!"She's just a lowly commoner now, and my brother kicked her out after she cheated on him! This woman is a sinful cheater! So how could you kneel for her? What happened to saving your dignity? Are you not worried you'd get bad luck for doing that?!""The fuck do you mean by bad luck?!" Zachary was so mad that he slapped Charlotte across the face. "You idiot! If it weren't for Liliana Schneider back then, our family would've been destroyed long ago…""Everything you get to enjoy now, the food we eat, the purse you're holding, the shoes Casey is wearing… we can only afford all of that because of our saviors, the Schneiders! If you dare to disrespect them one more time, I'll f*cking divorce you!"Charlotte covered her swollen cheek with one hand, and retorted, "How

    Even though she had not seen it with her own eyes, Renee had heard a lot of rumors. Everyone kept saying that her grandmother was a strange woman and that she had carried the Schneider family to glory with her own strength to become the top family in North City. Back then, whether it was the Hunt family from Beach City or the Baldwin family from Sutton, all of them were subordinates of the Schneider family.But such a legendary family had been extinguished by unknown forces within a month.Since then, the Schneider family declined in North City, and eventually, the legend became an actual myth.Strangely enough, although the Schneider family fell, the Everheart family rose. Some said that the rise in the Everheart family's reputation was thanks to Liliana's manipulation behind the scenes.But decades later, the Everheart family also fell tragically, ending up with the same fate as the Schneider family!Renee had almost no recollection of her grandmother and only recalled that th

    "That's..."Charlotte's words left the principal in a dilemma. When Monte Perry was established, the family committee had jointly proposed a rule to raise the school's admission threshold and ensure the student population's quality.Over the years, the kindergarten had strictly enforced this rule and did not accept children from single-parent families.Even though the school's principal appreciated Renee's decent and kind-hearted stance and liked Aiden's intelligence and cuteness, she couldn't make a special exception before so many parents."What's with your hesitation? As the kindergarten principal, you can't always break the rules, can you? Children from single-parent families are problematic and have flawed characters! Having them attend school with children from normal families will definitely affect the regular children! We can't let that happen!"Charlotte spoke with such righteous indignation, and the parents around her also fanned the flames by agreeing with her stateme

    Some people felt that Stefan's reply was friendly, and that he didn't want to fight the Baldwin family. Some felt that Stefan's reply was a provocation for the Baldwin family. As the culprit, he claimed that he felt sorry for them. It was a great humiliation for the Baldwin family. "He's outrageous!" Justin roared.When he read the report, he shared the same thoughts as some of the netizens. He felt that Stefan was openly mocking him. As the winner, Stefan mocked him for failing to keep his fiancee. Justin grew mad and smashed everything in the room."What's going on?" Sophia was carrying some soup for her dear son. When she saw that scene, she became worried.A servant was standing outside the door with her head low and carefully replied, "Mr. Baldwin got angry after reading the response from Mr. Stefan Hunt. We're too afraid to stop him. Please help us, madam.""The response from Stefan Hunt?" Sophia didn't pay attention to the relevant news and had no idea what it was

    Jovan looked away and snorted. "Stop daring me. It's useless. I won't let you go—at least, not now.""Then you're going to get me killed!" Renee became angry and anxious. Jovan must be crazy—there was no way to make him compromise! "I can't watch you get killed, so I can't let you go." Jovan coldly got up and exited the room.Renee watched silently as the door closed. A greater anxiety gripped her when she thought of the conflict between the Baldwin and Hunt families. She had to leave immediately, but she couldn't break free of the chain around her foot. There was no way to make Jovan compromise. She had no idea how to leave.While under great pressure, she noticed an iron art product on the bedside cabinet.A horrible idea dawned on her, but she had no idea if it would work. Jovan would probably be indifferent about it, and it might be useless. That, and she would have to pay a greater price. But she had no choice. "Forget it! I have to take this chance!" Renee took

    Jovan awkwardly tried to comfort Renee. However, his words sounded more hurtful and made her cry even louder. "This is all your fault!" Renee raised her head, then pointed at him while bawling loudly. "Did I ever anger you? Why did you frame me? What good did it bring you?""I…" Jovan's heart softened because of how pitiful she looked when she cried profusely. However, he was a pretentious man and would not show that he had gone easy on her. Instead, he tried to provoke her even more. "You can't change anything even if you cry loudly. Austin wants nothing but to kill you and your family now. If I were you, I wouldn't be in the mood to cry. I'll brace myself to manage a funeral for them."Renee was flabbergasted. She didn't expect him to be this inhuman. She was heartbroken, but he kept hurting her. She cried even more profusely."I'll keep on crying. Let me go if you can't take it. If you don't, I'll keep on crying until you can no longer take it!"She cried loudly as if she

    A major issue happened to two famous and great families. The entertainment channel and news channel kept reporting about it, let alone the financial channel.Jovan didn't have to turn to a specific channel when he turned on the TV. The screen was showing a scene related to the engagement ceremony."They…" Only then did Renee learn that while she was waiting in the makeup room for her turn to make an entrance, the atmosphere in the hall had turned very tense. Alexander and Francine argued and fought against Justin's parents in a way unsuited to their statuses. Everyone failed to wait until she made an entrance before she went missing. She saw how the situation gradually became worse. She also noticed Justin's disappointment in her and Austin's wrath. Austin finally couldn't control himself, and kidnapped Alexander and Francine. "The Hunt family has yet to make a statement about it. We also have no clue about Mr. Alexander Hunt and his wife's current circumstances. However, we

    Renee said seriously, "I would like a plate of pasta with more vegetables and is not spicy. I'm afraid this is my last meal."Jovan was rendered speechless. Although Renee was being sarcastic, he still went to the kitchen to make her a delicious plate of pasta. He added some vegetables and a nice fried egg for a balanced diet. "It's done." Jovan had sent off all the servants of the mansion, leaving Renee with him. Hence, he was the one who cooked the pasta and served it to her. "Wow, you're fast." Renee wanted to get a chance to run away since she had sent him away to cook for her, but she couldn't come up with any trick.In the end, she got hungry when she saw the pasta. It was mouth-watering. She was starving!Jovan was good at cooking pasta, even though he didn't seem reliable. The pasta he made tasted like home-cooked food."Give it a try." Jovan didn't say much. He meticulously blew on the pasta and handed her a fork and spoon. Renee accepted it, eager to start eatin

    Jovan watched Renee fall into a deep thought. His gaze deepened, filled with renewed ferocity.Jovan turned his wrist and said slowly, "Okay, stop overthinking. I can tell you the truth if you want to know it." Renee abruptly looked up. Her eyes were teary as she begged him, "What's the truth?" "Listen to me and stay with me." Jovan frowned. After a short contemplation, he grinned and continued, "Stay with me for ten days or half a month. Then, I'll tell you.""That's not possible!"Renee immediately refused him, growing cold. "I have to leave right away. I can't watch the two families get into a fight."If she didn't return to North City immediately to explain things, the Baldwin and Hunt families would get into a big fight. Regardless of her circumstances, she didn't want them to fight. They were good people, and she refused to see them hurt. "Just let them fight. It's just a fight among bad people. Your family can grab this chance to get back to the top. Don't you want tha

    Jovan felt that he wasn't as passionate and loving as Stefan."Stop beating around the bush. Why is he trying to hold himself back? You made a scumbag sound like he'd suffered a lot!" Renee snarled.She gnashed her teeth. If her foot was not chained, she would have long beaten Jovan up for being evasive and mysterious."I think he was forced to give up his beloved woman because of his identity. He has suffered a lot." Jovan frowned, his tone laced with sympathy."What about his identity? I've already known about that. Our grandfathers decided on our marriage. What are we, Romeo and Juliet?" Renee had wondered if their families were sworn enemies. It might be the reason why Stefan was in a dilemma.However, her grandfather made the Hunts take care of her when her family was doomed. Her grandfather always wanted the best for her. He held her hand and told her that only Stefan could make her happy, and only the Hunt family could protect her. It seemed unreasonable that Stefan was

    Jovan was stunned to hear Renee's words. He was so furious, he laughed."Maybe!" He agreed with her and looked at her wickedly. "Since I can't win him over, I want his beloved woman.""You're out of your mind!" Renee was disgusted as goosebumps gripped her. "I'm not his most beloved woman. He loves Briar the most. You got the wrong person. You should kidnap Briar instead. Then, you can get to him."She was acting out of spite, but she meant what she had said.In the past, she was confident that Stefan loved her the most. After so many things had happened, she was no longer as confident. Stefan eventually broke up with her because of Briar. It was enough to prove her position in his heart."Haha! Do you really think so?" Jovan shook his head, his lips a complicated smile. He seemed to be muttering to himself or hinting at something. "Unfortunately, he can't always do a good job. His romance is a mess. His most beloved woman doesn't understand him. How pathetic!""Stop mumbling!

    "You're trying to take revenge on Stefan, aren't you? What did he do? Why do you hate him so much?" Renee demanded.She was particularly clueless.At the very least, she felt that Stefan and Jovan didn't have a grudge even if they couldn't get along. Besides—back then, Stefan survived because of Jovan's blood.In a sense, they should be close to each other. Stefan was able to live on because of Jovan.Yet now, Jovan wanted to ruin the one he had once risked his life to rescue."No, I don't hate him," Jovan answered honestly. "I even admire him, and I'm jealous of him. He's my role model, the pride of my family.""Then, you're envious of him!" Renee went straight to the point. "You can't defeat him, so you tried to make him disappear. When that happens, you'll feel better. No one will block you, and you'll get a chance to shine."Jovan, speechless, slowly stopped smiling. Renee had accurately guessed his innermost thoughts. Since he couldn't defeat Stefan, he would let Stefan b
