Renee would no longer have to worry once she’s brought Joanne back to reconcile with her


    brother, after all.


    “Hell no.” Liam refused, putting his index fingers into the shape of an ‘X’. “I can’t even


    handle being there, and I y around a lot! You’re a girl and a beautiful one at that! Who


    knows what would happen when you’re there! I wont let you risk your life!”


    “I heard it’s a pretty hellish ce. Even a beast would be left with scars all over its body. But


    don’t you know me? When have I, Renee Everheart, ever been scared of anyone?”


    “I know you’re strong, but you need to know that there are stronger people out there. My


    master is no joke! I almost made him explode when I refused to be his godson and


    escaped! He might imprison you and make you his concubine if you went there!”


    “Shut it with the nonsense. Hand me the address!” Renee was impatient, restricting the


    man’s arms behind his back, increasing her force with every word she spoke until it was


    unbearable to him.


    “So, are you going to tell me or not?”


    “No!”


    “I’ll break your arms if you don’t.” Renee was quite skilled when it came to punishments,


    increasing force with every passing second.


    “Ow ow ow!’ Liam couldn’t take it anymore and gave in. “Fine, but I’ll go with you. He’s my


    master, after all. I’m sure he won’t cross the line if I’m there.”

    Renee hesitated for a moment, then nodded. “Okay, you cane, no one cany a finger


    on you with me around.”


    However, before going through with this n, she had somewhere else she needed to be.


    As the hate was still trending on the inte, H Group’s share prices were greatly affected.


    Moreover, there were paparazzi outside their headquarters every single day, which only


    made matters worse.


    Stefan was sitting at hisrge office at the time, massaging his temples out of exhaustion


    and frustration. He had not expected this grudge from five years ago to be dug up, cing


    him as the target of everyone’s hate.


    Thinking back on his feud with Quinton, he knew that he was indeed too brutal back then.


    However, he did it out of circumstance, having just taken over thepany at the time. He


    had no choice but to be cruel to secure his position.


    His family was unhappy with the fact that he took over H Group, and so were his


    employees. The only person they trusted was his brother, Tristan.


    Hence, being young and reckless, he was eager to make a name for himself and decided


    he’d like to talk business in Water Dock.


    At the time, Water Dock was overrun by the Carmine Pawnshop, which resulted in a neverending


    rivalry between the two, and they were at a stalemate.


    At the very least, it was until a key figure appeared…


    “Mr. Hunt, someone is requesting an audience of you.” The secretary knocked on the door,


    speaking in a respectful and careful tone.


    “It’s probably those annoying reporters again, isn’t it? Tell them I’m not seeing anyone!”


    Stefan was annoyed.


    He simply never expected any of this information to have been leaked, let alone in such a


    touching article. With that, he really didn’t have a clue as to how to deal with this for now.


    “Mr. Hunt, are you sure you don’t want to see anyone?” The secretary asked carefully again.


    “Cant you understand me? I won’t be seeing anyone.”


    “But… the person requesting an audience is… the ex-Mrs. Hunt.”


    Stefan’s expression softened, and quickly spoke without hesitation. “Let her in.”


    “Alright, Mr. Hunt.” The secretary nodded and sighed to themselves, i ‘Mr. Hunt sure has a


    double standard! How adorable!’
