“How do you know my favorite fruit is kiwi? We must be quite close if you know that much,” Stefan


    remarked casually as he smiled and ate his kiwi.


    “Yes, you’re right. You nearly killed my brother, and I nearly killed you. That must make us close, right?”


    Renee rolled her eyes and said.


    “That’s right, so we’re even now. Can we let bygones be bygones and just move on?” Stefan suddenly


    demanded, which reminded Renee of Jovan’s shameless behaviour. It seemed like after Stefan


    received Jovan’s blood, he inherited some of his characteristics too.


    “I nearly broke your neck but you’re forgiving me so easily? Are you still the petty man I knew?” Raising


    her brows, Renee asked.


    “What about you? Do you forgive me?” Stefan asked instead.


    But Renee averted her gaze and said nothing.


    “Why aren’t you answering my question?” Stefan smiled and urged, “Do you still hate me or have you


    forgiven me? Tell me.”


    Renee looked up and met his gaze. “Is it important?”


    “Yes, it is.” Stefan nodded eagerly. Something strange was happening to him these days-it was like


    Renee had taken over his mind. Sometimes, blurred scenes would sh in his mind, and he knew they


    were rted to Renee. His instincts told him that Renee was important to him, and her attitude towards


    him only confirmed it.

    ‘I will give you onest chance.Tell me honestly-did you take off my brother’s oxygen mask?” Renee


    was no fool. She could guess that the person who did it and engineered Quinton’s ident was not


    Stefan. She knew he could be ruthless sometimes, but he would never use such wicked means to


    harm others. However, the fact that he was willingly taking the me for it told her that he was probably


    trying to protect someone important to him… but Renee hadn’t figured out who it was. All she knew


    was that him lying to her to protect somebody else made her heart ache.


    “Yes, I did,” Stefan answered calmly. Although he wasn’t the one who did it, Seraphina had harmed


    Quinton because of him. It made Stefan feel that he had to be held responsible for it.


    “Okay, so you still don’t want to tell me… Well, I’ll never forgive you for being the killer’s aplice.


    You’re even more abominable than them!” Renee choked out and red at him, her eyes full of


    disappointment.
