Renee didn't take Haze's threat seriously, and she threw the card away. She didn't care if he exposed her. After all, she saved Stefan's life. She hoped Stefan wouldn't be cruel to her just because of a little prank.However, she was curious about the problem Haze said about the Hunt family.'Is that why Stefan keeps getting targeted? Who would be bold enough to attack the Hunt family of Beach City publicly?' she thought to herself.At first, she wanted to ask Liam to check it out, but she felt it was unnecessary, seeing as she and Stefan were about to get a divorce soon.She put the thoughts back in her mind and decided to care for herself first. It was a pointless venture anyway, as she had never gotten any gratitude from the Hunt family in the past four years despite all the sacrifices she had made for them.Seeing as the weather was great today and she hadn't gone out to shop in a while, she called Leia. The two decided to meet at three in the afternoon in Paragon Plaza.Thin
Francine snorted and sized Renee from head to toe before mockingly saying, "Stefan won't even touch her, so how can she be pregnant? She's just a waste of our money." Francine's words were so cruel that Renee instantly clenched her fist when she heard them. Just as she was about to say something, Leia stepped forward and insulted Francine. "Hahaha! You're not that capable, either. One of your sons died, and the other had an affair. If I were you, I would reflect on why my sons are useless. Aren't you afraid your grandchildren will get karma because of your nasty remarks?" Before Renee had a divorce, Leia kept quiet and didn't interfere in their family matter. But now that Renee was getting a divorce, she wouldn't stay silent anymore. Francine was furious when she heard that, and she turned pale with anger as she pointed a finger at Leia. "You…" When Briar saw this, she felt that this was an opportunity for her to get on Francine's good side. She instantly stood between Franci
Thinking that an explanation was unnecessary, Renee returned the man's cold stare with a calm one and said, "She was slapped. There's more to say about it." It didn't matter if he considered her unreasonable or disgraceful. There was nothing to explain, and it wasn't necessary. Everything about the Hunt family was nothing important to her from the moment she decided to divorce Stefan. What's more, it was just a mistress and a shrew. Francine, with a shaking voice and an arrogant look, said, "Look, she admitted it. What are you still standing here for, son? Make her get down on her knees and beg for forgiveness!" Having stood by the side watching, Leia started to get irritated again and shouted, "Fuck your forgiveness! I wouldn't have slapped her if your mother and this bitch didn't call Ren a parasite and a barren!" Stefan furrowed his brows deeply when he heard her and turned to look at his mother and Briar. "Is that true?" Briar, feeling guilty, choked on her words
Renee's shopping mood was swept away after the misfortune of meeting Stefan and the two toxic women, so she went straight home after leaving the mall. The following day, she woke up early. After changing into a black dress and tying up her hair, she went to the florist to get a bouquet of daisies and then drove to the graveyard. It was the third of March, the death anniversary of her parents. It had been four whole years since they committed suicide, and she had never visited them. Everyone said she was a cold-blooded, ungrateful wretch who forsook her family to please the Hunts. But only she knew how much she loved her family. She was angry that they were not brave enough to live on, for their cowardice, their choice to leave in such a stupid and stubborn way, and for leaving her alone in the world! She hadn't visited their graves for so many years because she hadn't wanted to face or accept this reality. Yet, it was different now. She had gained the courage to face everyt
Renee returned home after leaving the graveyard. Just as she entered the door, she received a phone call from an unknown number. It was Briar. However, her tome was extremely polite and gentle, unlike her usual domineering tone when facing Renee. "I am sorry to disturb you, Ms. Everheart. I've been cleaning the room recently and found some of your personal belongings. Do you have time to come and get them tonight?" 'Was Briar always so kind?' Renee thought, obviously skeptical about it. What was she up to this time? Despite that, Renee did not hesitate and replied calmly, "Sure, I'll drop by and get them later." She left in haste last time, leaving some important belongings behind. Even if Briar did not call her, she would still find time to return to the villa to pick them up. At around eight in the evening, Renee got a cab and went straight to the Hunt family’s residence. The servants were somewhat distant because the previous mistress was visiting. They did not eve
Putting on the mask of concern, Briar said, "Isn't that a bad idea? She's still your cousin's wife, after all." Charlotte took Briar's arm and persuaded her righteously, "Bri, you're just too kind-hearted. Think about how this woman trampled you at the charity banquet. Don't you want to give her some payback? Didn't you see how lustful she was acting just now? I'm so generous that I even lent her my boyfriend to help her out! She'll have to thank me later! Don't worry. I'll take care of it if anything happens! It won't be your fault!" "You're so kind to me, Charlotte!" Though Briar looked touched, she was laughing inwardly at Charlotte's stupidity. The stupid girl didn't even know she was being used, yet she was still working herself to the bone for Briar! A short while later, Stefan returned to the villa. A chilling aura exuded from his tall figure, and he asked sternly, "Where is she?" Not seeing Renee after surveying the spacious parlor, his brows knitted tightly together.
Renee struggled to push him away. "Stefan, are you crazy?! 'Stop interrupting when I am enjoying myself, okay?' "This isn't appropriate! You shouldn't watch this!" He spoke like a father worried for his daughter, as if Renee was a young, innocent girl watching something bad. Renee was speechless. "I am not a kid, okay? I've experienced a lot of things!" "Really? Tell me, what have you experienced?" The calamitous rage on his handsome face had subsided, replaced by a trace of playfulness as he calmly returned her gaze. She stayed silent as memories of the night she had sex with this man surfaced in her mind, which turned her cheeks red without her realizing it. Her shy reaction amused him, making him even more confident of his speculation that she was not pregnant. In fact, she probably never had an intimate relationship with a man! Shortly after that, Briar also left the room in embarrassment and hastily attempted to clear her name. "Are you alright, Ms. Everheart? I
Stefan pushed open the door and saw that Micah, who was under the influence of the drug, was pinning Charlotte beneath him and trying to have sex with her. "Stefan, help me!" As if seeing a lifeline, Charlotte screamed at Stefan for help. Although Micah was her boyfriend, and they had had sex a long time ago, this was a situation she just could not accept. It was too humiliating! Stefan's eyes coldly swept across the two on the floor and took away what belonged to Renee on the table. "Serves you right!" He left without looking back after saying those words. His cousin was spoiled to the point of being too lawless. It was time for her to taste some pain. When he got downstairs and saw Renee waiting at the door, he frowned. "We are not divorced yet. You are still the mistress of this villa." "No, thank you!" Renee took the things in the man's hand and left without bothering to say goodbye. It was already late at night at the moment. Renee stood outside the villa
