“Hehehe…” Renee had no choice but to take a bite for show. She then lowered her voice. “Stefan, did


    you have to do this? Isn’t it a little too cruel?


    “It’s your own doing. I’m just returning the favor.”


    The two pushed the chicken wing skewer back and forth while they bickered. To others, this seemed


    like a moment of intimacy.


    Moses smiled foolishly before quickly retrieving his phone to capture this’ heart-warming’ moment.


    “Looks like the rumors on the inte are true. Stefan and Miss Everheart really do share true love.


    This is such a sweet photo. I have to share it on social media!”


    While saying this, Moses typed ‘the couple I ship is real’ before attaching a picture and publishing the


    post on social media.


    “Hey, don’t do that…” Renee felt that it had gone too far and tried to stop him.


    Unfortunately, Moses wasn’t the only one who did this. The others did the same. Even if she wanted to


    stop them, it was toote. 2

    Feeling helpless, she turned to face Stefan. “Why aren’t you saying anything? Tell your friends to delete


    their posts. If word gets out that we’re together, how will we rify things?”


    Stefan behaved as if he was an outsider who wasn’t affected at all. ’So what? When has our


    rtionship ever been rified anyway?”


    “You’re sick!” Renee couldn’t stand it any longer. “Do whatever you want. I’m done ying your game!”


    She took off her apron and turned around to leave.


    She never wanted to have anything to do with Stefan from the beginning. However, ever since she


    returned to Beach City, it felt as if she’d fallen into his trap. The harder she tried to steer clear of him,


    the more he clung to her. It was annoying!


    When everybody saw how the joke had gone too far, they began toning it down. “I think Miss Everheart


    is angry. Let’s delete our posts. She might not like it.”


    Stefan’s gaze turned cold. “Whatever!”


    Xavier could tell that things were turning sour. He tried to persuade Stefan to go after Renee.


    However, Stefan responded as if nothing had happened. “It doesn’t make any difference whether she’s


    here or not.”


    “You’re too dense for your own good!” Xavier shook his head and ran after Renee.


    “Renee, don’t be angry. We went a little too far with the joke and overlooked taking your feelings into


    ount,” Xavier said.


    “It’s not your fault…” Renee stopped walking and turned around to look at Stefan, who was still chatting


    andughing. “I just don’t want to have anything to do with that guy. Seeing him once shortens my


    lifespan by a few years!”


    Xavier was confused. “What’s going on between you two? Didn’t you two spend the night together?


    Why are you still on bad terms?”


    “Don’t be nosy!” Renee paused for a few seconds. ‘Anyway… It’s impossible for us to get back


    together. You guys need to stop meddling. Otherwise, it’ll just get awkward.”


    “Alright. We’re outsiders, and we don’t know what’s on your mind either. However, I can tell you with


    certainty that Stefan has be much happier since you returned. For example, he hasn’t shown


    such strong emotions for a long time, but just now… It felt like he’de back to life. He’s soulful


    again. Are you sure you don’t want to give him another chance? ” Xavier asked carefully.
