Leia knew the doctor was right-Renee was seriously ill. "I understand you, Ren." She walked over and


    held Renee''s hands, then hugged her tightly. "I know that you''re sad and stressed, but don''t feel guilty.


    If you think being with us is stressful, then we won''t disturb you. You can have some peace. When


    you''re feeling better, I''lle and take you home." Leia finally believed Jovan''s words. Jovan hadn''t


    forcefully locked Renee up-it was Renee who didn''t want to go home. Although Leia didn''t understand


    Renee''s reasons, she respected and supported her decision. "Do you want me to go? Will it make you


    feel better?" Leia whispered.


    "I don''t want you to go, but I''m in a very bad state. Your being here will just stress me out even more. I


    don''t want you all to see my bad side, so..." Renee bit back a sob. "Give me some time. I''ll go home


    once I''m better." "You''re saying that you still want to stay in Jovan''s manor? You don''t want to see us?"


    Leia asked, sounding disappointed.


    "I won''t stay with anyone; I just want some peace. Don''t worry, I''ll be fine. I just... need a ce to heal."


    Renee was like a wounded beast that hid in the mountains, away from others, to nurse its wounds. If


    Renee was strong, she would get through this. If not, she wouldn''t burden anyone. In that case, she


    wouldn''t feel guilty.


    Although Leia was reluctant, she would always support Renee. "Okay, you have my word. I won''t


    disturb you, but can you promise me one thing..." "What is it?" "You have to text me every day. They


    don''t have to be long texts-even an emoji is fine. It''s just so we don''t worry about you. When you


    suddenly went missing, Xavier, Margaret, and I were very anxious. We almost called the police." Leia''s


    dissatisfaction surfaced when she mentioned that. She had been frightened and worried for such a long


    time and had restless nights as a result. If Renee had just texted her, none of that would have


    happened.


    "I’m sorry, I can''t control my actions sometimes. I''m crazy." Renee held her head, feeling stressed. She


    cared about the people she loved very much, and didn''t want to let them down or let them see her in


    such a sorry state. Hence, she simply avoided everything.

    "No, it''s our fault. We put too many expectations on you and stressed you out, so you were afraid of


    facing US. We should apologize to you instead..." Leia patted Renee''s shoulders firmly. "I''m sorry, Ren.


    We exhausted you. You should take it easy and lead a more rxing life. Nobody is perfect, and


    sometimes, ws are what makes someone who they are."
