His unconditional protection of Briar Desrosiers was a merciless trample on her feelings. She was


    ashamed and felt bad for herself for having loved such a man!


    “You two take your time. I have something else to take care off, so I’ll be leaving now.”


    Renee did not want to stay any longer. More importantly, she had to go check on Xavier.


    After taking two steps, she turned back and told Stefan, “You better hide her well, Mr. Hunt. If I manage


    to find her, I might make the liee true. After all, I wouldn’t technically be breaking thew if I make


    a person who’s already dead disappear.”


    Of course, Renee only said that so that Stefan would keep Briar Desrosiers under strict control and not


    let here out to do dirty stuff again.


    As long as Briar Desrosiers behaved herself, Renee naturally would not make a move either.


    Unfortunately, her nonchnt warning actually brought disaster upon herself…


    After Renee left, Francine finally snapped out of it.


    “From what she said, Briar is still alive?”


    “Hmm.”


    Stefan nodded, his expression terrible.


    He was still thinking about Renee’s harsh warning.


    He could not understand why Renee hated Briar so much.


    “Oh, thank god. My little grandchild is safe… The Hunt family line will go on.”


    Francine smiled brightly with her hands folded, thanking the heavens.


    Stefan was speechless. “What? I’m still alive!”


    “So? It’s not like you touch any woman. How are you any different from a celibate monk? Fortunately,


    Briar is able to conceive your child, but you don’t look like you have any interest in Briar as a woman


    either. If she doesn’t give birth to this baby, I don’t think there’s any chance you’ll have another baby in


    the future…”


    Francine knew Stefan very well.


    His personality was too cold and he had too much self-control. Ever since he was young, he had little


    interest in women.


    Otherwise, he would not have been married with Renee for so many years without touching her.


    For Briar Desrosiers to be pregnant with his child was as improbable as winning the lottery. It would not


    happen again in the future.


    Francine was not blind. She could see that Stefan was not interested in Briar Desrosiers.


    But his reaction to Renee tonight… He finally looked like a man. His hormones were nigh bursting out


    of him.


    Francine suddenly had a bold idea.


    She grabbed Stefan and said solemnly, “Actually, I can see that Briar is too much of a hypocrite and is


    not a good match for you. Since she’s officially deceased now, I won’t urge you to marry her anymore.


    When she gives birth to the child, give her a sum of money and ask her to leave.” ? >>Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Stefan’s expression wasplicated.


    In truth, he had nned to do the same, but when he remembered his elder brother’s dying wish, he


    could not do it.


    Francine continued, “I’ve given up on Briar Desrosiers, but there must be a Mrs. Hunt. I can’t let my


    grandchild grow up without a mother. I’ve thought about it. There’s actually no candidate more suitable


    than Renee Everheart!”


    “Mom, what are you saying?”


    Stefan was stunned. “I thought you’ve always looked down on Renee. You persuaded me to divorce


    her for four years while we were still married!”
