The next second, a beautiful and boisterous figure burst in.Comment by Felicia C: insert 2 hashtag before first para"Daddy, I heard a slut is trying to seduce you, so I came to see what the shameless woman looks like!”Jane South was wearing black high heel boots and carrying a limited edition bag. She was shouting and making a scene like a typical spoiled rich girl.She instantly saw Renee sitting across from Jerome South. Surprise crept into her willful face."It's actually you... the woman that Stefan has hated for four years but is still shamelessly clinging onto him!” said Jane through clenched teeth. She looked at Renee with contempt and jealousy. Her attitude was full of hostility.Renee's smiled faintly and extended her hand to Jane, unperturbed. "Hello, Ms. South. I'm honored that you still remember me."She had met Jane before. She knew Jane was Stefan's number one fan. Because Jerome doted on Jane, Jane had grown up spoiled and willful.Generally speaking, Renee ha
Gourmet Pavilion was a top-class restaurant in Beach City. It was the preferred place for many businessmen to socialize and entertain guests.Currently, in their most luxurious dining hall, the Swan Hall, Stefan was sitting at the main table, receiving praises and flattery from everyone. He was undoubtedly the center of attention.“You're definitely the most outstanding individual in the entire Beach City, Mr. Hunt. You repeatedly lead Hunt Enterprise to achieve new heights! The likes of us can only look up to you!"A steady stream of toasts accompanied by flattery would make anyone dizzy.But not Stefan. He remained steadfast, his cold eyes unreadable. The regal air he exuded was a far cry from the crude air around the other businessmen.At that moment, a young voice cautiously said, "Although Mr. Hunt is incredible, there are many rising stars lately. Take Liam Osborne, the young son of Geronimo Osborne, for example. The Azure Group he runs is on a roll right now!"In the midst
About ten minutes later, a waitress in a traditional dress led Jane into the Swan Hall."I finally get to see you again, Stefan. You can't avoid me this time!"She went straight to Stefan's left side. The person sitting to Stefan's left was very tactful and immediately offered his seat.Everyone in Beach City knew that Jane, the future heir of South Group and the pampered only child of Jerome South, was crazy about Stefan Hunt.Hunt Enterprise and South Group were strategic partners that had cooperated for many years.The two young people were comparable in age and family background. A marriage between them seemed like a matter of certainty.But a certain Renee Everheart suddenly appeared out of nowhere..."Stefan, you've grown even more handsome since the last time I saw you. You have no idea how much I've missed you. All I could dream about was you...”Since Jane came in, her eyes never left Stefan. She intimately grabbed his arm and said coquettishly, "How could you be so cr
During the day, the primeval forest with dense vegetation at Floating Cloud Villa was a natural oxygen bar for the wealthy, a place for them to take vacations and recuperate. However, during the night, it was a dangerous place where all kinds of wild beasts roamed.At the center of the forest was a sealed underground bunker surrounded by vines and thorns. Few people came to this area. Right now, it was emitting a faint blue light that looked like an eerie fire in the dark night.Renee was sitting at the bottom of the hole. The humid air carried a musty smell, and occasionally mice and cockroaches would crawl past her. Her delicate little face was expressionless. She was calm.Heh, that fool Jane thought that if she tricked Renee into this air-raid shelter and locked her in, she would be teaching Renee a lesson.However, Renee's grandfather had taught her survival skills in the wild when she was little. This environment was no doubt a nightmare for ordinary people, but for her, it w
Stefan thought Renee was trying to trick him so she did not take her warning seriously.Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his ankle.Looking down, he saw a black snake spitting out its bright red tongue, looking at him menacingly. The snake was about two fingers wide."Crap!"Stefan frowned. He could clearly feel the muscles around his ankle becoming numb. He could hardly stand anymore.He quickly moved Renee behind him to protect her and said, “I'll lure it away. You look for a chance to escape!""Did it bite you?" Renee clenched her fists and said in a tense voice, "The snake has a silver ring around its neck and lives in a humid place, so it should be highly venomous. Stop moving so that the venom won't spread so fast!"Shut up if you want to live!"Renee's voice was so loud that it was giving him a headache.In his opinion, all Renee's voice would do was anger the cold-blooded animal in front of them.He had no experience in handling snakes, but under the tense situation,
"Mhh..."The man's lips were hot. Renee's mind went blank. She simply let him get the best of her as if her body had been paralyzed.This was not the first time he had kissed her, but it was the first time he was doing it so passionately and enthusiastically.So much so that she found herself immersed in the kiss and could not help responding...While getting lost in the kiss, Renee opened her eyes and took a peek to see what kind of expression Stefan had when he was kissing her.Stefan's eyes were tightly closed. His slightly curled long eyelashes and his pronounced facial features were truly a work of art.His deep eyes, his high nose bridge, his perfect jawline, his thin and sexy lips... If looks could kill, his face would be a weapon of mass destruction!Four years ago, she was enthralled by this handsome face.Four years later, she found that she still had no resistance to it!"Ahem!"In the darkness, someone coughed awkwardly."Boss, are you done kissing? We've been he
The person in the lead was none other than the guy Renee had been waiting for all night—Jerome."Ms. Everheart, my naughty daughter has gone way over the line this time. I've already punished her by grounding her for a month. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive her." Jerome sincerely apologized, his face filled with guilt."I was lucky enough to escape unscathed, but my husband, who tried to save me..."Renee looked towards the ward where Stefan was, her fingers clenching slightly.Although his life was no longer in danger, the toxin had accumulated in his body, so no one knew if it would have any lasting effect. She was somewhat worried and also felt a bit guilty.If she had not tried to put on the act to acquire South Group's cooperation, Stefan would not have been in danger.She could now take the opportunity to make the request from Jerome, but... she could not do it.Liam, however, did not have that kind of reservation. He cut straight to the point. "If apologie
Renee frowned and asked the doctor nervously, "Please tell me.""Because the snake venom is too strong and can disrupt the victim's central nervous system, Mr. Hunt may experience symptoms of quadriplegia for the next few days. In other words, he won't be able to move. You and Mr. Hunt should not panic if that happens. He's not paralyzed for life. He'll be fine once the snake venom is cleansed.""Quadriplegia?"While Renee was still digesting that word, a loud noise came from the ward."Get out! Get out! Don't touch me!"Stefan had come to. His angry voice was loud enough for the entire floor to hear him.Renee and the doctor hurried over.They saw several young nurses standing at the door of the ward, all of them afraid to go in."What's the matter with you people? The patient's awake. Why aren't you taking care of him? Don't you want to work here anymore?"The doctor said with a serious expression.The person lying inside was Stefan Hunt, the CEO of Hunt Enterprise! If they
