“You’re overthinking. I just told him that I didn’t want to see my partner get his hands dirty.


    Surprisingly, Benjamin let you go. You guys must be pretty lucky.”


    “Hmph, I know that you’re not that kind.” Renee looked away and ignored him. She nced


    at the flickeringmp of the surgery room and recalled Joanne’s final wish. Feeling angry,


    she turned to Stefan and red at him fiercely. “You scumbag!”


    He stared at her incredulously. “What did I do to you now?”


    “It’s not about what you did to me, it’s about what you did to Joanne! You tricked her and


    manipted her. You even watched her fall into the sea but didn’t save her. Calling you a


    scumbag is putting it lightly!”

    Renee’s eyes turned watery, and she fought back tears. “Do you know how loyal she was


    towards you? She knew she was about to be killed, but her final wish was to meet you one


    Stefan’s gaze was indifferent as he said cryptically, “You’re not Joanne, so you don’t


    understand her thoughts. Things aren’t as they seem. She might be pitiful, but your crazy


    brother isn’t normal either. He deserves what he gets.”


    “How dare you!” Renee snapped furiously. “Yes, of course you’re the victim in this. You’re


    the most innocent man. How could you be so arrogant?


    Joanne must be blind to fall for a selfish and heartless man like you…” 1


    Inevitably, she couldn’t help but think, Tm blind too for falling for a man like you.”


    “Whatever. You already think of me as ruthless and heartless, so your impression of me


    can’t get any worse.” Stefan raised his chin arrogantly as he spoke.


    “You’re really…” Renee was exasperated by the man’s indifference. She frowned and asked,


    “Is there nothing you care about? Nothing that can truly move you?”


    “No.” His answer was direct and blunt.


    “That’s what I thought. Joanne is silly to yearn for a cruel and heartless liar like you…”


    Renee sneered, feeling strangely disappointed.


    Suddenly, the door to the surgery room opened. The doctor’s gloves were covered in blood,


    and he said urgently, “Her condition has worsened, and she’s suffering from blood loss. She


    needs blood, but our blood bank is insufficient. We need a blood donation. Who among you


    has type 0 blood?”


    “Me!” Both Stefan and Renee raised their hands.


    “Step back. A cruel man like you wouldn’t donate blood for someone else. Let me do it-l


    have a lot of blood.” Renee scoffed, but she was secretly worried that donating blood might


    affect his health. After all, his body had just recovered. If he wanted to donate blood to


    another person now, it would be very risky.


    Stefan ignored Renee and looked at the doctor as he rolled up his sleeves.” Let’s not waste


    time. Take my blood.”


    “You can’t!” Renee stood before Stefan and said to the doctor, “He looks tall and strong, but


    he’s actually a weak man. He’s suffering from hemophobia too. What if he faints when he’s


    donating blood? It’ll only cause you trouble. Take my blood… I’m strong.”


    ‘Tm suffering from hemophobia, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t have enough blood. I’m a


    man, and she’s a woman. Her hematopoietic function isn’t as strong as mine. Use my


    blood.” “Your hematopoietic function isn’t strong at all! We exchanged your blood for you, so


    stop trying to act brave!” Renee blurted out
