That was because, if she did not escape soon, she might actually be tempted to accept his offer...Especially the last promise. No woman could resist that.Think about it. After coming home from a tiring day of work, there's a stunning beauty waiting for you at home. He would make your stomach, mood, and body feel great. It would be better than winning the lottery!“Stefan, let's be honest with each other. What's your goal? If it's the children, I advise you not to waste your time. Just file a custody lawsuit and let the judge decide.”With the last trace of reason in her mind, Renee pushed the man away and calmly asked him.“No, my goal has never been the children,” he said, half-jokingly and half-seriously, as his eyes bore into Renee's. “Then what's your goal? To torture me, get revenge on me, and finally destroy me?”“Am I so heinous in your eyes?”“Of course you are. Other than that, I can think of no other reason why you would lower yourself to this level.”Renee looked
“I'm glad to hear that.”From behind his unique mask, Mr. Q looked at Renee with complicated eyes. He said meaningfully, "Remember, you made this choice yourself, so you can't regret it no matter what, okay?”“No regrets.”Renee nodded again to assure him. She left herself no way back and bet everything she had on this decision so that she could have a fresh start.Regardless of whether the ending would be a happy one or a terrible one, she would have no regrets!“You're aware of my situation, I presume? I've sworn to never take off the mask, so the way we obtain the certificate will be a little different.”“How so?”"Give me your documents. I have special connections that will let us obtain a marriage certificate directly."“But...”Renee was a bit dumbfounded. "Are you really gonna wear this mask forever? Even after we get married? Even when... even when we sleep together?”“My face is disfigured. It's a humiliation for me. I won't let anyone see it. If you mind, we can end
“Without showing up?”"That's right. Someone will photoshop our pictures together, get everything done, and mail the marriage certificate to you. You can then see what I looked like before I was disfigured."“I... I see.”Although it was strange, Renee could not suppress her excitement. Without much hesitation, she handed over all her documents.It felt like she was handing over her turbulent life to the man. From now on, she would be living her life with him and the children!After they said goodbye, Renee returned to the Hunt Villa.She was in a good mood. She felt like she had embarked on a new chapter in her life.No one knew about her second marriage, so there were no flowers, no blessings, and no grand wedding, but it made her feel incredibly secure, at least more so than her first marriage.She may not love Mr. Q, but she missed the time she spent living with him and the children. The feeling of being a peaceful, ordinary family was something that Stefan could never give
“A delivery?”Renee was puzzled. Was it her marriage certificate? It's done already?But she gave Mr. Q the address of her apartment. It wouldn't be sent to the Hunt Villa.She glanced at Stefan, who was sitting on the sofa. She hesitated to speak.She did now know how he would react if he saw the marriage certificate... Would he fly into a rage or would he remain expressionless? She suddenly found herself a bit curious.“Why are you looking at me? Are you receiving something illegal?”Stefan tried probing her.“Of course not. I'm a law-abiding citizen. I don't have anything illegal.”“Then why do you look so guilty? What's the delivery?”“It's none of your business. I have no obligation to tell you.”“Are you sure it's none of my business?”“Of course it's none of your business!”“Then don't come looking for me afterwards.” The look on his handsome face was unreadable, and his tone had hidden meanings.Renee thought he was behaving strangely, but she was too eager to se
With a smile, Stefan slowly got up, walked behind Renee, and teased, "Or maybe I still have an important place in your heart, so whatever you do—even if it's just opening a small package—you're concerned about how I would feel?”“Stop being so full of yourself. I stopped caring about your feelings a long time ago.”“Then what are you afraid of? Open it in front of me. It doesn't contain anything illegal, right?”Stefan was both mischievous and unrelenting. "If it does, then I have even more reasons to know what's inside. I live with you, so I don't want it to get me into trouble.”“Fine, fine, you win.”Renee could not stand him. She raised a hand and said, "If you really want to know what's inside, then I won't hide it from you. I just hope that you can remain calm after you see it and not fly into a rage.”Although she was not sure how Stefan felt about her, she was certain that he wanted to remarry her.She could already imagine the scene. He was confident that she would rema
That was because the man in the marriage certificate photo was not Mr. Q at all, but Stefan Hunt! Even the name of the husband was Stefan Hunt!“What's the matter? You just got married, so shouldn't you be happy? Why do you look so pale?”Stefan crossed his arms and asked with a smile on his face.It sounded like an inquiry, but it was more of a mockery. He was mocking Renee's naivety and ignorance.“What... What did you do?”The marriage certificate in Renee's hands suddenly felt as hot as lava. She quickly threw it to the floor. She was on the verge of a mental collapse.Stefan calmly bent down to pick it up. His slender fingers carefully wiped the dust off it. He looked at the wedding photo with deep eyes. His smile was gentle and profound.“Look at our photo. What a beautiful couple. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call us a perfect match. We're meant to be together.”“Shut up!”Renee covered her ears and yelled at him, "Do you think this is funny? I can make hundreds of
But he simply moved his fingers slightly and easily pulled her back into the abyss!Stefan's smiley eyes gradually turned cold. They were now filled with dangerous intent.“At a moment like this, he's the one you care about, huh? I underestimated your feelings for him.”“Of course you underestimated our feelings! That's because you're a cold-blooded animal! You don't even have basic human emotions, so how can you understand other people's feelings?!”Renee was filled with intense fury. She wanted to pounce on him like a mad dog, biting and tearing him to pieces.But she was also aware of the fact that, the more she lost control, the more satisfaction he would gain.The only thing that could truly hurt him was the feelings between her and Mr. Q.After all, for a person without emotions, that kind of blow was a "critical hit"!“Even if you used despicable means to achieve your despicable goal, he will still have my heart. As long as our hearts are together, it doesn't matter whet
“I mean it in the literal sense of the word.”A sinister smile broke out on Stefan's face, like the smile of Satan. He said slowly, "To tell you the truth, I castrated him. He can't even be considered a man now, so you should give up your fantasy, forget that he ever existed and stay with me.”“You castrated him?”Renee shook her head in disbelief. "That's impossible. There's no way you can lay a hand on Mr. Q that easily!”Stefan snorted disdainfully, "Four years ago, I could destroy him and make him live like a worm. Four years later, I can castrate him and make him less than a man...”“If I hadn't, how did the important documents you gave him end up in my hands? How did you end up marrying me instead of him?”While saying that, he calmly opened his package.It contained the crucial documents Renee gave Mr. Q and Stefan's copy of the marriage certificate.“Maybe...”Renee looked at the documents with fearful eyes. She swallowed with difficulty as her mind went through countl
