On the same night, Stefan got on his private ne and flew directly to the ind at maximum speed.


    Throughout the journey, he kept reminding himself to act cold andposed when seeing Reneeter.


    After all, he didn’t fly there because he missed her or wanted to continue their rtionship. He was


    going there solely because he needed her skills as awyer to help with thewsuits that H Group was


    facing.


    ‘Yes, that’s it!”


    Stefan thought for a while and finally came up with a good reason. He instantly felt relieved.

    By the time he reached the ind, it was already the next morning.


    The orange and crimson sun rose from the ocean’s edge and reflected its light over the blue sea,


    making it orange.


    Stefan sat inside the speedboat and sped his way through the shore.


    Once he got on the ind, a local girl came upto him and weed him.


    “Uncle, are you here for Aunt Renee?” the small girl said, her cheeks tanned and her grin pure.


    ‘Yes.”


    As Stefan looked at the little girl, he was d and thought, ‘Not bad. She knows to get someone to


    wee me!’


    “Follow me, and I’ll bring you to Aunt Renee!”


    The small girl waved at Stefan before turning and running.


    Stefan followed her without hesitation.


    He assumed it wouldn’t be far away at first, but he was too naive.


    The journey started from the foot of the mountain and progressed all the way to the top. They climbed


    for over two hours without stopping.


    Stefan was a strong man, but his body couldn’t handle it. He was puffing slightly and questioned the


    small girl in front of him, “Are we there yet?


    Where is she precisely?”


    “Aunt Renee’s home is far away, but it’s lovely. You’ll adore it once you get there!”


    He wanted toin, but he restrained himself. “Let’s take a break first.” He was panting.


    “Uncle, you’re exhausted already just walking this little?” the child observed. “You’re terribly weak, just


    as Aunt Renee stated.’


    When Stefan heard this, he was dumbfounded.


    ‘How could you, Renee? I’ll let you know I’m not weak when I catch you!’ He thought bitterly.


    They traveled for another three hours till they arrived at the mountain top.


    Stefan saw an orange-colored chapel erected on the brink of the mountain, overlooking the distant sea.


    The girl turned to him and said, “Uncle, Aunt Renee will pray here every day. Just go in and find her.”


    At this point, Stefan was so exhausted that he barely had any energy. He took in a deep breath and


    showed a thumbs up.


    “Uncle, you look really handsome. Can I have a hug?” The girl blinked her huge and bright eyes at


    Stefan as she stared at him innocently.


    “Of course.”


    Stefan felt his heart melt at the cuteness of the girl and gave her a big hug.


    Afterwards, she climbed down the mountain.


    Stefan wiped his sweat away and fixed his hair. As he walked slowly towards the church, he


    straightened his back and put on a frigid fagade.


    He wondered how she would look now after not seeing her for three months.


    ‘Would she get thinner? Tanner? More depressed? Or grow bald?* he guessed in his heart.


    Women were sentimental, so naturally, they wouldn’t move on that quickly. He imagined that she would


    be crying every single day.


    Stefan, however, was different.


    He became more disciplined during these three months. He visited the gym often, ate healthy foods,


    and even upgraded his sense of fashion. He now possessed the confidence that he was able to charm


    her.
