“Take a guess.”


    Renee’s red lips curled into a fox-like smile. It was enchanting, mysterious, and unreadable.


    She reached out and gently caressed the man’s perfect face. The slight stubble and the faint coolness


    all felt so familiar to her. The lingering love of the past was still vivid in her memory, but right now, the


    two of them seemed to be worlds apart.


    “I don’t care what your purpose is. Leave immediately. This isn’t where you belong.”


    Stefan tried his best to put on a stern face so that Renee would leave.


    He did not want her sudden appearance to mess up his meticulous n.


    But more importantly, he was not sure if he would falter at the final phase of the n because of her!


    If he faltered, everything would be over!


    “Why are you in such a hurry to drive me away? Because of guilt?”


    Renee asked confidently.


    “……”


    Stefan ignored her. He let go of her hand and tried to maintain a safe distance from her.


    He knew his own nature very well. Although he looked as cold as an iceberg, he was actually a


    hopeless romantic. The closer they were to each other, the less rational he became, which was very


    troublesome!


    Unfortunately, Renee was naturally rebellious. When she realized that he wanted to keep a safe


    distance from her, she took the initiative and put her hands around his shoulders. Her thin lips brushed


    across his face, seemingly by ident. She said slowly, “What if I tell you I came here tonight to take


    you back. Would you believe me?”


    “Stop causing trouble.”


    Stefan obviously never expected Renee to be so persistent in wanting him back. He was pleasantly


    surprised and struggled to keep a straight face. He said arrogantly, “I thought you said you’ve prepared


    yourself to break up with me one day? You said I’m merely the icing on the cake, and even without me,


    you’ll still live a colorful life. Why are you so desperate now?”


    “Yes, but that only applies to the day we’re meant to part. We obviously haven’t reached that point


    yet…”


    Renee buried her head deep in his shoulder like a kitten and whispered in his ear, “I don’t believe for a


    second that you don’t love me anymore. You must be doing this for a reason. There’s no one else here,


    just you and I. I’ll give you another chance. Tell me the truth. Whatever it is, we can face it together!”


    “……”


    Stefan stood tall and motionless like a mountain.

    He had to admit, for a moment there, he was very close to faltering, just as he had expected.


    But when he thought about the cost of doing so, he managed to pull himself back.


    “Let me tell you something. Don’t underestimate your wife. I, your wife, is amazing. Whatever support


    the Murphy family can give you, I can give you too. You don’t have to make such a big sacrifice. We’re


    still married, so don’t you go and announce another engagement now!”


    Renee felt a bit anxious when Stefan did not make any reply. Her attitude also became a bit more


    humble.


    “What kind of support can you give me?”


    Stefan remained unmoved. He slowly pulled her hand away and said, “You can’t even take care of


    yourself, so stop dragging me down. If you still care about me, then please give me and Seraphina your


    blessing.”


    Renee once again felt a chill from head to toe.


    Like a moth, she flew towards a light source willingly, even though she knew it would kill her.


    In the end, she received a huge p to the face!


    “Fine, Stefan Hunt. Remember what you said today. I’ve already given you enough chances. No matter


    what reason you turn out to have, I’ll never forgive you!”


    Renee’s eyes were red as she lost control and yelled at him.


    *Ahem!*
