Before Stefan could answer, Renee snatched her phone back and said quickly, “It''s gettingte,


    Quinton. You''d better go to bed!"


    A sigh escaped Quinton. "You''re protecting him again. It looks like you still haven''t learned from your


    mistakes."


    "I know what I''m doing. He and I have soldiered through a lot of hardships, and all I want to do now is


    lead a peaceful life and take things one step at a time...” Renee was still devastated over the loss of


    her sight, and she felt that if she couldn''t follow her heart and spend the rest of her life with her


    beloved, her life would be as dark as her world. She did not want to spend the rest of her life in misery.


    "But you both can''t live peacefully together, your identities have always prevented that from happening.


    I''ve found some clues about the families who conspired to attack our family back then, and I feel like


    the enemies we''re going to face will be stronger than anyone we''ve ever encountered.” Quinton''s voice


    grew more solemn. Generally, he disliked talking about bad things, and he was reluctant to discuss


    their revenge with Renee because he didn''t want to ruin her mood.


    However, he had been feeling lonely and sad while working days and nights at sea, and he wanted to


    confide in someone.


    "Really? Which families were it? How could they kick us when we were down? We can''t let them off the


    hook!” Renee


    Renee protested agitatedly, clenching her fists. She was blind, but she wasn''t hopeless. She would risk


    her life to make her enemies pay if she found the murderer who killed her parents and ruined her


    family.


    "It''s...plicated. Maybe Stefan has the right to know too. I''ll tell you when I get home,” Quinton said


    hesitantly, not wanting to expose the truth.


    "Stefan? Is it rted to the Hunt family?" Renee''s heart pounded in her chest. If the destruction of the


    Everheart family was rted to the Hunt family, she wouldn''t be able to ept it. Stefan''s rtionship


    with her aside, their grandfathers were good friends and allies, so their families shouldn''t be enemies.


    Maybe the fortune teller was right—maybe she and Stefan were just ipatible, and they''d face


    many obstacles if they were together.


    “Calm down. Yes, it''s rted to the Hunt family, but it''s not what you think. I wouldn''t have spoken to


    Stefan that calmly otherwise,” Quinton said, trying to reassure Renee.


    "So the Hunt family didn''t attack us when the Baldwin did?” Renee asked instantly.


    "Of course not. The friendship between the Hunt and Everheart families was stronger than we thought.


    You''ll know the truth when Ie home.” Quinton had discovered a lot of things, and it involved a lot of


    families. It could not be exined in a word or two, and he wanted to tell her in detail face-to-face.

    "Okay, I''m not worried then,” Renee said, letting out a sigh of sigh of relief. The thing she had feared


    the most was facing Stefan if his family had been involved in the attack on the Everhearts.
