Stefan’s handsome face was calm. He merely raised his eyebrows slightly and asked the cautious–


    looking Xavier, “Why not?”


    Christopher and him, as well as Xavier, became sworn brothers a long time ago. They were even


    closer than real brothers.


    Now that the eldest brother was getting engaged, as the younger brother, there was no reason for him


    not to go.

    Xavier thought Stefan was just putting on a brave face. Heforted Stefan, “It’s okay, bro, Christ said


    if you don’t want to go. you don’t have to. He understands. After all, the rtionship between you, him,


    and Cecy is a bitplicated…”


    “It’s nothingplicated.”


    Stefan said nonchntly, “One’s a brother, the other’s an old friend. They’re getting engaged. I’ll


    definitely go to the


    engagement.”


    “But… alright!”


    Xavier heaved a long sigh with an even stronger look of sympathy on his face.


    In his opinion, Stefan was obviously just acting nonchnt.


    Cecilia was Stefan’s first love. Now that his first love was getting engaged to his brother, one could


    imagine how painful it was


    for Stefan!


    s. Stefan had the perfect family background, career, and appearance, but in the matter of the heart,


    he had always been


    struggling. His first love ran away, his wife ran away… Poor guy.


    Hopefully, the “6 Steps in Courting Women” he taught Stefan today could help Stefan out. May he


    never suffer from love troubles again…


    After Xavier left, Stefan flipped through the notes he had just taken with intense concentration, his thick


    eyebrows slightly


    furrowed. “Step 1…”


    Renee and Margaret returned home in the afternoon after a walk at the nearby river.


    From afar, they saw a row ofrge trucks parked at the vi gate. Several men in overalls were looking


    around for someone


    they could talk to.


    “Excuse me, who are you looking for?”


    Renee asked the men.


    When the men noticed Renee, one of them asked enthusiastically, “Hi, are you Miss Everheart?”


    “I am. How can I help you?”


    Renee looked at the trucks behind them ominously.


    “Well, a gentleman named Mr. Hunt purchased some furniture, appliances, and ornaments for you. He


    bought a lot and they’re


    pretty expensive. Please check that you’ve received all the items on this list and sign here.”


    As he said that, he handed a thick stack of papers to Renee.


    Renee skimmed through the list and saw that there were tons of things on it, ranging from sofa to


    television to vases.


    It was no exaggeration to say that if she were to open a furniture store now, she would have more than


    enough products to sell.


    Seeing the long row of trucks, Margaret could not help but sigh. “Mr. Hunt? Could it be your ex–


    husband? How nice of him. It seems he’s not as cold and heartless as you said.”


    But that just made Renee mad.


    “Of course he’s being nice. Otherwise, his lover is going to jail. He’s trying his damnedest to save her.”


    Renee told the men. “Take these things back. I don’t want them.”


    “What?!”


    The men looked hesitant. One of them said, “Mr. Hunt has already paid for them. They’re non–


    refundable. Please, Miss


    Everheart, don’t make it difficult for us!”


    “I’m sure Mr. Hunt means well. These furniture and appliances are all really expensive. A single one of


    them could easily cost tens of thousands of dors. All the things here must cost over a million dors


    in total. You should just ept them, Miss


    Everheart.”


    “Is that so…”


    Renee looked at the rows of trucks again. A cunning smile appeared on her face. “You’re right. Mr.


    Hunt definitely means well. I


    really should ept them.”


    The man was overjoyed. “In that case, please check the items and sign here, Miss Everheart.”


    “After I sign, these things will be mine and I can deal them as I see fit, correct?”


    “Of course, of course.”


    “Great.”


    Renee took the pen and signed on the paper, then told the man. “Now take these things to a second–


    hand furniture shop and sell them all for 50% their original prices. If you can sell them for more than


    that, the difference in price is yours to keep.”


    “That’s…”


    The man did not expect Renee to do something like that. He seemed at a loss.


    “What? If you don’t want this job, I know plenty of other people who do. I’ll call someone else.”


    “We’ll do it! Of course we’ll do it!”


    The man nodded hastily.


    Brand new furniture, she’ll only take 50% of the original price, and they get to keep the difference in


    price? That’s a windfall of a few hundred thousand dors for them. Who wouldn’t want this job?


    Margaret felt bad. She tried to talk Renee out of it. “Is this really alright, Miss Ren? Wouldn’t Mr. Hunt


    be mad if he finds out?”


    “That’s none of my business. All that matters is I’m happy!”


    Renee looked overjoyed. “This is perfect. My heart still aches thinking of how much I paid for the vi.


    And now, someone’s


    here to give me money. Of course I can’t refuse his goodwill, am I right?”


    That evening, Stefan received a feedback call from the staff.


    “She epted them?”


    Stefan smiled.


    Looks like she was not so stubborn after all.


    But after that, the staff stammered. “Miss Everheart did ept them, but she immediately resold them


    to a second–hand. furniture shop. We couldn’t stop her.”


    “She resold them?!”


    Stefan almost passed out from anger.

    ‘Such an impressive business mind you have, Renee Everheart. I’ll make you pay for this!”
