“What should I do? He's here! He's here! I don't know how to face him. Hurry up and stop him!”Leia awkwardly scratched the ground with her leg while blushing, making a hole in the beach beneath her feet.“Uhh... How am I supposed to stop him? I...”Renee was at a loss.After all, a shameless guy like Xavier would just go wherever he wanted. There was no way she could stop him.As the man approached, the panicking Leia jumped into the sea and swam offshore.“???”The smile on Xavier's face disappeared. He was also shocked by Leia's action.“What's wrong with Lei?”He asked Renee with a puzzled look.“Umm... She... She's just taking a morning swim. It's a habit she's had for years.”Renee came up with a random excuse to cover up for Leia.Xavier believed her. He had an appreciative look on his face. "It's a great habit to have. Many of the girls I've met are very delicate. They would start complaining after staying too long under the sun, let alone exercising.“Lei is a spe
Xavier's beautiful eyes curved into wicked arches. "I won't take off my pants. Lei might feel shy...”Then, like Leia, he too plunged into the sea.Renee watched as the two figures got closer and closer to each other in the blue sea.She ran away, but he gave chase, and now she's caught!Tsk, tsk, tsk. How romantic.Renee could not help but smile. She was almost moved to tears.She knew her decision was correct. The man she had carefully chosen for her bestie could not be that bad!“Hurry up and catch up to her, Xavier! Do your best!” Renee cheered Xavier on from the shore.“Alright, that's enough. Be careful not to catch a cold.”Stefan had arrived at some point. He gently wrapped a striped embroidered shawl around Renee's shoulders.“Thank you.”Renee turned around and gave him a sweet smile.The two embraced each other as they had for many mornings in the past.Feeling the warmth of the man's embrace, she felt happiness from the bottom of her heart. So this was what i
Stefan was gone for more than a week. He was gone without any news as if he had disappeared like Mr. Q.He could not be contacted by phone. Francine said she did not know where he was, and the media did not mention his disappearance at all.Leia was really anxious. She used her connections to look for him everywhere, but the rich young people who were usually fearless all played dumb this time, afraid to say too much.However, Renee remained calm. When her call couldn't get through, she would just try calling again after a few hours. If she still couldn't get through, she would simply give up as if nothing had happened.On a certain morning, Renee leisurely set up an easel facing the sea to paint the beautiful sunrise.Leia anxiously paced back and forth beside her. After a while, she could not stand it anymore. She grabbed Renee's paintbrush and asked with a frown, "Ren, how can you still paint at a time like this? Aren't you worried?”“What's there to worry about?” Renee asked
Tsk tsk, if they really were to date, he would probably need to get a bigger insurance policy!“Alright, you two, stop messing around. My two children already give me enough headaches. If I have to take care of you two as well, I'll collapse from exhaustion.”Renee rubbed her temples with a tired expression.Xavier childishly licked the lollipop and patted Renee on the shoulder. "Ren, don't worry. Stef is really good at solving problems. He'll take care of the problem in no time.”Renee's expression changed slightly. She asked, "Does that mean you know what's going on?”“I'm not sure.”There's something behind Xavier's words.Leia was angered. She glared at Xavier. "Can you speak like a human? Stop being so elusive.”“Alright, I'll say it. Don't get mad.”Xavier instantly turned into an obedient little boy. He told them honestly, "I tried to contact Stef too like you did, but my calls couldn't get through either, so I asked my old man. He said that he heard the Hunt Enterprise
Leia also spread her arms to block Renee's path. "If Xavier is telling the truth, then if you go now, you’ll just be sacrificing yourself. I won't let you take this risk!”Renee was deeply moved by their concern for her, but she felt that they were overreacting. She chuckled and said, "Don't worry, you two. I just want to resolve the conflict. I'm not gonna sacrifice myself. I would sacrifice them first before I sacrifice myself. You know what I'm capable of.”“Of course I do, but you don't know what the Murphy family and the other enemies are capable of.”Xavier's tone was heavy as he said, "Do you know how many people in Beach City want to bring Stef down? The Murphy family is just the tip of the iceberg.”“So? I'll take care of all of them, no matter how many there are.”Renee clenched her fists. Her beautiful face displayed absolute confidence.“You're too optimistic. The reason these people have not been able to defeat Stef for so many years is not because they're not strong
Leia had goosebumps all over her body. She quickly stopped Xavier from continuing. "That's insane. They killed them all?”“This is just a TV show, so relatively speaking, it's already a pretty mild outcome. If it had happened in real life, it would have been even more insane.” Xavier sighed deeply.As one of the Great Eight of Beach City, the Stuart family had seen a lot of things that were even uglier and more insane than what happened in TV shows.“So what you're trying to say is Stefan is like Robb, who canceled his marriage, while I'm like the innocent nurse who ended up getting stabbed in the stomach. If I go back, I'm dead for sure?” Renee asked Xavier.“You know it.”Xavier shrugged and said, "All I can tell you is the Murphy family came to power through shady means. The methods they used were much more brutal than what you see in TV shows. If you don't show up, considering the power of the Hunts, maybe there's still room for negotiation between the two families. But if you
The two children barely hesitated. They spoke in unison, "We should fight alongside Daddy, of course!”Even though Aiden was small and adorable, he carried himself with a mature and calm demeanor that belied his age. He was smarter and more composed than many adults.The little boy rubbed his chin and came up with a plan. "Maybe you can stay here with Abby while I go to Beach City to check out the situation there. If the problem is small, I'll just take care of it myself, so you won't have to come forward.”“Adie is amazing. Let Adie handle it. He can solve any problem...”Abigail sang Aiden's praises while looking at him with starry eyes. At the same time, she did not forget to insult Stefan. "I knew it. Handsome Daddy only has a handsome face, but he's actually really weak. He gets caught by the enemy so easily and now Mommy has to go rescue him. Aiden is much stronger than he is.”Aiden shook his head and sighed with youthful maturity. "Like I always say, without me, this famil
Moving at a turtle speed like that was an insult to a sports car like a Bugatti.But in the eyes of outsiders, it was a scene straight out of soap opera!Tsk tsk, the wealthy young master made the cousin-in-law he's secretly in love with mad, so he followed behind her like an obedient puppy in a limited edition sports car worth millions. It was such a romantic scene!At first, Renee planned to pretend that he did not exist, but Jovan went crazy. Not only did he cause a traffic jam, he also recklessly shouted many inappropriate things.She could only take a deep breath, clench her fists, open the passenger door, and get into the car reluctantly.“Jovan Hunt, you madman, what are you scheming this time? I thought after Stefan defeated you, you would have been so humiliated that you would commit seppuku. Why are you still here?”Renee's words were as sharp as daggers. She was being brutal on purpose.She had no choice. Against a madman like Jovan, she could only become even crazi
