Stefan looked at Renee and asked casually, “So, what are your ns?”


    Renee drank another mouthful of soup, then asked, “What ns?”


    ‘You can’t really stay in the business field forever, right? It’s aplicated and dangerous world, you


    won’t be able to handle it for long,’ Stefan exined, as he had experienced the struggles within the


    industry as well.


    He figured that a woman like her wouldn’t be able to bear the stress of managing a business. Although


    they were divorced, he didn’t wish such an uneasy life on her.


    ’How would you know if I can’t handle it?''” Renee looked towards the man, a confident smile appearing


    on her face. “Just look at me now, aren’t I doing well? Azure Group has only been established for a few


    months, and we were able to sign a big contract! I even became the president of the Electronics


    Technology Association! Everything is going well as of now, so sorry for not seeing the dangers in this


    field, I guess.”


    ‘You’re too naive!” The man shook his head, replying in a serious tone.” First, South Group is clearly a


    bomb waiting to explode. Jerome South may have offered you a lot, but wait till it is time to reap profits.


    You’ll see just how heartless he can be then! Besides, there is just so much power you can have in this


    industry. After being appointed as president all of a sudden, others may find it unfair, even if I don’t!


    Being in the spotlight has consequences, you know? I advise you to leave this industry as soon as


    possible, or you might have to face unthinkable consequences.”


    Everything he said was based on his personal experience, and he genuinely hoped Renee could step


    out of this incredibly painful path.


    ‘If you ever need money, just ask. We used to be husband and wife, alright? I will take responsibility in


    taking care of you for the rest of your life,’


    Stefan said sincerely, but was only met with Renee’s scoffing.


    ‘ Don’t you think it’s toote to be the nice guy now, Mr. Hunt? Besides, it’s pretty arrogant of you to


    assume that I won’t survive in the industry. You think I have topletely rely on you to survive, don’t


    you?’


    Stefan turned cold. ‘That’s not what I meant.”


    ’So what do you mean, huh?”


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    ‘I just…” Stefan wanted to say something, but paused. His expression was cold as ice.


    ‘Don’t you remember how your parents died? Don’t you remember how the once renowned Everheart


    family met their downfall? Do you think you are stronger than your parents were, or do you think you’re


    even stronger than me? Did you know that my brother died right before my eyes? Did you know I


    couldn’t do anything to save him? Did you know I was forced to watch him take hisst breath?!”


    While speaking, Stefan clenched his fists, his eyes red as tears started welling up in them. Tristan


    would always be the main source of his pain and grief. His brother’s death was a constant reminder as


    to how weak and ipetent he was.


    Hence, he really did not hope Renee would feel the same pain he did.


    The woman finally realized that he was genuinely concerned about her, which made her feel quite


    guilty. “Umm, hey, you don’t have to worry about me…’


    She then took a deep breath and continued. ’I’ll just be honest with you. I actually never intended to


    make my mark on the business industry either. It’s too tiring, and I just don’t have the energy to deal


    with everything.”


    ‘I just want to follow my n and earn enough to livefortably. Once my n seeds, I’m out of


    here.’


    ’Out of here?” Stefan stared at her and questioned further. “Where are you going?”


    ’Now, that’s confidential! All I can say is I’m not going to be in Beach City, that’s all.” The woman


    replied. She’d actually hoped to leave in secret, but she didn’t minding clean at this point.


    Stefan was visibly conflicted after hearing this. After a brief pause, he said frostily, “If you think leaving


    will make you happier, then you should go.”


    Even though he was unwilling to let Renee go, he knew that he was in no ce to ask her to stay.


    Their meal had been exceptionally peaceful. There wasn’t any resentment, arguments, or sarcasm this


    time. The two simply looked past their past, and had a long conversation with each other, as if they


    were old friends…


    As they were about to leave, Renee suddenly felt a wave of dizziness, with an odd scene ying


    before her. She immediately grabbed Stefan’s arm, sounding rather nervous. “Stefan Hunt! Wait!’
