Chapter 948

Author: Mizuki Sei
Standing at a high spot, Quinton looked down at Renee, who was still in the water prison and told her, "Hurry up and get out, sister. The water level is increasing, and soon, what's going to come out of these holes won't be water, but venomous creatures of all manner like snakes and bugs."

"No!" Renee raised her head and looked at her brother in panic. "Brother, you gave me your word! You told me you'd give me the full authority to deal with the impostor, didn't you? So what are you doing now?"

"I wanted to let you handle it yourself, but as soon as I learned the impostor's true identity, I knew I just had to break my promise to you. Please forgive me, Renee."

Beneath his mask, Quinton's eyes became dangerously ruthless, as if he could hardly restrain himself from tearing the impostor into pieces right then and there.

"This is my own personal vengeance. I have endured crushing humiliation for so many years just so I can avenge myself one day, so I can't just let him go."

    "Ms. Everheart."Chase chased after Renee, who looked rather emaciated and lonely from the back."What is it?""Are you really going to leave now?""Why should I stay here?""You should hurry up and stop Boss! He's not joking, you know. No one else in Carmine Pawnshop—no, no one else in Beach City can stop him except you! If you leave now, then Mr. Q… no, then that devil Mr. Hunt will surely die!""Since you called him the devil yourself, then isn't it right that he should die anyway?""You can say that," Chase warned her with feeling, "but if he really dies, then he'll really be gone forever. Won't you be upset? Or rather… aren't you afraid of the consequences?"Stefan Hunt had always been Carmine Pawnshop's deadliest enemy. Back then, when the two parties were at war with each other, Chase was one of the main forces fighting against him, and he even had his leg injured by the Hunt family, an injury from which he still suffered long-term effects even now. Naturally, Chase also

    Immediately following that was the sound of Quinton's roaring laughter."Hahahaha, look at you now, Stefan Hunt! I can't believe something like this would ever happen to you. Do you remember how I begged you to let me live all those years ago, and you refused me? Now you get the retribution that you deserve!""Don't stop!" He ordered his men. "Keep it going! Keep releasing more things into the water! I want this snob to taste what it's like to suffer a fate worse than death!"Just then, Stefan's agonizing cry of pain once again rang out.Chase was in such a panic that he stomped his feet and rushed towards Renee, who still stood coldly and frigidly there, "Ms. Everheart, he really can't hold on for much longer! I hope, and I wish, that you won't regret this!""Ugh! So annoying! How can you be such an annoying gnat?!"After yelling at Chase, she then turned around and returned to the water prison.As expected, the water had reached Stefan's neck, and snakes and insects could be s

    "Cut the crap! Hold on." After Renee said that, she fainted out of exhaustion. At last, Quinton's heart softened. He asked someone to help Renee and Stefan up before he found some exceptional doctors to try their best to save them…The next day, Renee woke up in deep pain. "Sis, you're finally awakened. You scared me so much!" Quinton grabbed Renee's hand. He became so agitated that his eyes turned red. "If anything happens to you, I won't survive…"Renee's lips were pale, and she had not a bit of strength in her. She asked feebly, "How is Stefan?" "He…" Quinton's gaze flickered, and he instantly changed the topic. "How are you feeling now? Does your head hurt? Are your eyes blurry? Can you see things well?"I'm fine. My head hurts a bit. Tell me… How is Stefan?" Renee asked anxiously. She could tell from her brother's expression that something must have happened to Stefan. If not, her brother would not look like he had a guilty conscience. "Err… I'm not very sure ab

    Stefan lay in the guest room of Carmine Pawnshop. His eyes were tightly closed, and his breathing was slow. He was still in a coma. "How long has he been in a coma?" Renee forcefully exerted her weak body and rushed to the man's bed before she asked in concern. Her eyes inevitably turned red the moment she saw Stefan. It was because she'd never seen him so weak before; it was as if anyone, even a three or four-year-old child, could kill him with great ease. "You guys are rescued together. It's already been three days." Quinton stood at the back with both hands in his pockets while making an honest reply. "Didn't you send him to the hospital? I'm sure a more professional hospital can save him, given his condition."Why didn't you send him to the hospital?" Quinton explained, "The first thing I did was get some people to rush you guys to the hospital, but those doctors were out of options. They claimed that you guys were dying, so I spent a lot of money to get a professi

    Renee said pessimistically, "I'm afraid my kids will hate me to the core for killing their father!" "No, that won't happen. Sis, don't worry. The exceptional physician I hired is an outstanding physician with great medical skills. He claimed that Stefan will be all right as long as he can wake up in time. This guy will be fine." At first, Quinton did not plan to let Stefan off the hook, but since he was his nephew and the biological father of his niece, he could only let go of his grudge and let him stay alive. "I hope so…" Renee heaved a long sigh. "My mind is a mess now. Please leave me alone. I want to stay with him." "Okay." Quinton nodded and patted her shoulder. He said apologetically, "Don't worry, sis. I was too impulsive. I'll try my best to make it up to you." After Quinton left the room, Renee no longer pretended to be rational or aloof. She sat before Stefan's bed and held his hand with a heart full of worry and pain. "Stefan, you've been sleeping for a long

    When Renee came out of the room, Quinton, who had been guarding outside, went to her. "Sis, what happened? Why are you in such a flurry? Did that guy wake up?" "His fingers moved. I think he's about to wake up…" Renee tried her best to calm herself down before she said to Quinton seriously, "Can you promise me one thing?" "Of course, I'll promise you no matter what you ask of me!"Quinton announced humbly as he tried his best to please Renee for fear that his only sister would hate him. "Treat Stefan's illness. Don't hurt him. Let him live even if it's not for me. Do it for Adie and Abby." Renee stared at Quinton with a firm and solemn gaze that had no intention of giving in. After a series of incidents, she felt that she did not know him enough. She did not know his limits after being reunited with him after such a long separation. So, she still did not dare to trust him fully, even though they were a pair of twins."Er…" As expected, Quinton's eyes wavered. He was

    The servant was standing outside while carrying a bowl of steaming herbal medicine, but the servant did not dare to enter the room. "Mr. Hunt, please take the medicine while it's hot. There is residual venom in your body. If you don't take the medicine in time, I'm afraid that the toxin may spread. It'll be dangerous by then…" The physician, whose mustache had turned white, stood outside the room and advised Stefan earnestly. He had treated many noble and rich people, so he had seen a lot of patients who were hard to deal with. However, it was the first time for him to meet such a difficult patient like Stefan. At first, Stefan was nearing death. He was finally saved after much difficulty, but he did not listen to the others at all. He did not even want to take the medicine. He was simply courting death. "Where's Renee? Where is she? I want to see her. Get lost if you're not her!" Stefan casually picked up an antique vase and threw it hard at the door. When it was about

    After a brief pause, Stefan found the bowl of medicine before he leaned his head back to gulp it down."Can you tell me now why you're keeping me alive?" His thoughts were very clear. He made a guess and hit the nail on the head. "Did Renee say something to you? You guys reached some kind of deal... What is your relationship with her?" He vaguely heard Renee address Quinton as her brother and Quinton address her as his sister when he was in the water dungeon. However, wasn't Renee the only child? When did she get a brother out of the blue?He had too many doubts he needed to figure out. Even if he had to die, he had to die without any doubts. "I don't have to tell you about our relationship. The reason I keep you alive is because I'm kind and generous. I don't want my pawnshop to be stained with blood..." "Ridiculous!" Stefan snorted and retorted, "Is Midnight Demon someone to be trifled with? You're born a demon, and you regard the lives of others' lives as mere dust. Yo

    After a long pause, Stefan finally admitted honestly, "That wasn't a lie." He turned to look at Renee. He knew what he had to do, and heaved a long sigh."But life isn't just about love.""Why not?" Renee became teary as she stared at him like a child who failed to get what she wanted. "To me, that's already enough. As long as we love each other, we can conquer everything. Without love, it'll be hopeless.""If loving each other is already enough, there wouldn't be the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet. Didn't they love each other deeply? They loved each other a lot, but they ended up dead!" Stefan shot back.He could not stop himself from getting impulsive. Heartbroken, he turned around to look into Renee's eyes. "Compared to love, I'd rather you lead a steady and happy life. But I'm not the one who can give you that. I'll only bring you pain and death!""Romeo and Juliet?" Renee found that preposterous and bizarre. "What a lousy excuse! Did I kill your parents, or did you kill my p

    "How could you…" Stefan looked at Renee in disbelief. For a moment, he was struck dumb. Renee quietly removed the oxygen mask and the needle. She calmly sat up in bed. "I thought you'd never be honest with me.""When did you wake up?" Stefan finally regained his wits. Because of his guilt, he was too scared to look into Renee's eyes. "I had long woken up." Renee was very calm. She looked weak because she had lost too much blood, but at the same time, she still looked firm like a rose blooming in winter. "So, you purposely lured me here, didn't you?"When Stefan learned that she had long woken up, he realized with shock that he might have stepped into the trap she and Jovan set up.Naturally, he was uneasy, given the proud man he was. He could plot against others but could not tolerate others doing the same to him, let alone the fact that it was his beloved woman."Hmph! Did I lure you here?" Renee laughed sarcastically and disappointedly. She looked at Stefan as he tried

    "Can I wake her up?" Stefan seemed to be asking them and himself. He shook his head in self-hatred. "I'm afraid I'm the reason why she wants to escape this world. She must hate me to the core and refuse to see me. She might know that I'm here, so she's avoiding me and refuses to wake up."He recalled how much he had harmed her. He was not confident to wake her up, let alone face her."Yes, you're sinful, ut you must be held accountable for it!" Justin could not bother to waste his time talking to Stefan. He pushed Stefan into the ward instead. "You made her so angry, she's in a coma now. So, you have to wake her up. If she doesn't, you can't leave the ward!""Agreed!"Jovan was standing on the other side. He and Justin seemed to have formed a barrier and refused to let Stefan back down.After some contemplation, Stefan decided to face the music. He closed the ward door and quietly went to Renee's bed. It was the first time he was alone with her after a long time."You're tr

    Unsurprisingly, Renee remained irresponsive. Justin gradually grew depressed. Before, he was confident. Seeing that he was getting no response from her, his confidence waned. Undeniably, he was probably not that important to her. If not, she wouldn't remain indifferent. She would have sensed that he was around. "I got it. You don't need me." Justin smiled helplessly. He felt pathetic too. He took a deep breath and finally stood up to exit the ward."How's it going?" Stefan asked.He kept waiting outside the ward, paying close attention to it in hopes that Renee could wake up. He also felt that Justin could bring Renee wonderful things and hope. She would wake up when she sensed that Justin was calling for her. "Hmph! Isn't it obvious? Of course, he couldn't wake her up!" Jovan casually leaned against the bench in the corridor, not even looking up. He sounded vicious. "He's just a backup guy. Of course she doesn't care about him! She's not in love with him." Justin glared at J

    Stefan remained quiet as he calmly watched Renee. He extended his hand to touch her face but retrieved it before he could.She used to be the woman he was familiar with and the one he had hugged and kissed countless times, but now, he didn't even dare to touch her. "I think she doesn't even want you here. She must hate you so much and is disappointed in you. She'll be even more pressured if you stay here, and it'll push her further from this world. So please, get the hell out of here if you want the best for her!"Justin could not hold himself back from scolding Stefan. If Jovan was telling the truth, Stefan must be aware of the fact that Jovan was holding Renee hostage. Yet, he remained indifferent and feigned ignorance. He didn't even care if Renee was fine. What a cruel bastard! Justin was disappointed in Stefan. He wanted nothing more than to see what was really on Stefan's mind."Take good care of her." Stefan did not want to defend himself. He glanced at Renee, relucta

    "What did you do to her?!" Stefan interrogated Jovan coldly, his eyes teary. "She isn't the kind to kill herself! What the hell did you do to her?" "Try to wake her up if you want to know." Jovan was pale. His previous sickness, coupled with his recent blood donation to Renee, made him very weak. Despite that, he refused to stop infuriating others. "Do you think I can't do anything to you? Do you really think that?" Stefan could no longer hold himself back and strangled Jovan. "I'm going to kill you! Repent for the terrible things you've done!"He couldn't imagine the kind of thing that could force the strong and stubborn Renee to resist by using such a desperate means. "You obviously won't go easy on me! I'm sure of that!" Jovan sneered. His pale face turned flushed as he suffocated from Stefan's powerful grip. "But you'd better kill yourself first if you want to avenge her! She ended up like this because of you." "What?" Stefan's face was frosty. He strengthened his grip a

    Jovan slowly got up from the ground, looking incredibly weak. He whispered, "She lost too much blood. The doctor claimed she's out of danger, but…she hasn't woken up.""What did you say?" Stefan and Justin were bewildered. They couldn't process his words."So, she was the female college student who tried to kill herself?" Stefan said. He staggered after linking the information he had heard from a nurse with the things that Jovan had said."Stop acting dumb! You're so smart, how could you have missed that?" Jovan glared coldly stared at Stefan, scrutinizing him in disdain. "You were just too scared to face the truth and your woman! You're such a coward! You're an embarrassment to your family!""Agreed!" Justin added; he suddenly found Jovan useful, especially when the latter started insulting Stefan. It felt just right."Although I'm a fallback guy, I'm braver than you. I accept that she doesn't love me, and I'm willing to give it a try with her. And although this guy's a vill

    Stefan frowned, doubtful. He looked vigilantly at Jovan, who had collapsed on the ground. "What do you mean by this?"Jovan kept coughing and said nothing. His lips grew pale as he sneered.Justin's eyes were cold, and he held back his urge to beat up Jovan. "Hmph! Obviously, this is a scam!"He demanded condescendingly, "How dare you barge into my territory and take away my woman! Don't you fear my family and me at all?"Jovan, filled with disdain, looked at Justin as if he was a fool. "Stop talking. You don't even have the right to join this battle."To Jovan, only Stefan was qualified and powerful enough to be his enemy."How dare you say that!" Justin was infuriated. He got down on one knee and grabbed Jovan. "Your family always says nasty things! You two are the same. If we start fighting, I'll make sure to cut your tongue first!""Did I say something wrong?" Jovan sized Justin up, ridiculing Justin with mock compassion. "Don't you have any self-awareness? You're just a fal

    Stefan frowned and asked solemnly, "Aren't you a top hacker? Hack into this hospital's inpatient system. Then, we'll know where she is.""Yes, you're right." Still, Justin wanted to challenge Stefan. He said indifferently, "But you're Jovan's cousin. It's more convenient for you to make a call instead of me hacking into their system."Yes, Justin could hack into their system, but calling Jovan would be quicker. And what they needed the most was time."He and I…" Stefan sneered, flexing his fingers. "The fact we didn't kill each other is considered peaceful. He's not as obedient as you think.""You'll know by calling him."Justin had heard about the complicated internal fights of the Hunt family, but he felt that Stefan was exaggerating."Jovan is a Hunt no matter what. Plus, he's still working at Hunt Enterprise. Just call him," Justin said. "Fine." Stefan found Justin logical. His private grudges with Jovan were not important because finding Renee immediately was the most impo
