Stefan instinctively reached to touch Renee’s cheek, but stopped himself. He was usually a man of few
words, but surprisingly, he wasying his cards on the table for her. “It’s true. Think about it carefully; I’ll
come and ask for your answer early tomorrow morning.”
Renee clenched her fists slightly, surprising him when she just nodded obediently. “Okay.”
She would consider it for the sake of the two babies in her belly, as long as he sincerely wanted to start
over with her.
After he left, she stood in front of the huge French window and looked down at the city quietly, seriously
thinking about her future.
‘Should I stick through with my n of making a fortune and reviving my family with the two kids? Or,
should I go back to my past life and live under the protection of the Hunt family? Do I really want to be
a housewife whose life revolves around her husband and kids? It seems like both choices have their
pros and cons, and there’ll be regrets regardless.’
As she was pondering her fate, her phone rang. It was a strange contact number, originating neither
from Beach City or Sutton, but North City.
When she answered the phone and heard a woman’s voice, her heart soon sank. She wanted to curse
her bad luck, but just tolerated it and chatted with the woman for a while. She also suppressed her
anger and said coldly, ‘Okay, wait. I’ll go there now.”
After getting her things settled, Renee rushed over to Redwood Mansion where she had agreed to
meet Briar.
That mountain vi was located in North City. It was one of the few ces that H Group had invested
in, and it was a good spot for rxation. Its environment and facilities were so good that it had never
been opened to the public. Only a privileged few had ess to the ce, i

Once inside the mansion, one could see that it was surrounded by mist and nts. It was rich in
oxygen, and looked like a fairytale pce. A white European-style building was visible from a distance,
and it looked as magnificent as a castle. It was built in the middle of the mountains, silently
demonstrating the great wealth of H Group.
Renee alighted from the car and saw an extremelyrge rose farm. Therge and delicate red roses
were in full bloom, and they dyed the sky red.
Briar was in a white dress, sitting on a lounge in the rose garden. She was leisurely trimming the roses
and humming a song. What a rxing and enjoyable life this woman had!
Seeing that, Renee was furious. She snorted. “It looks like you lead a pretty good life here being
isted and forgotten by everyone else!”
Briar turned around and nced at Renee, saying smugly, “Of course, great troubles will disappear if
you stay in such a ce.”
“You’re not staying here though, are you? You’re just hiding like a rat that’s too ashamed to be seen.”
Renee sneered, bringing up Briar’s sore point instantly.
However, Briar was not angry at all. She slowly cut off a rose and sniffed it, then said with a charming
expression, “I know you’re just jealous of me since you never got what I have… After all, Stefan never
adored and spoiled you this way even though you were his rightful wife!” “Oh, is that so? How did he
adore and spoil you, exactly?” Renee crossed her arms in front of her chest in amusement, enjoying
Briar’s acting.
