Chapter 381
"Ren, it really is you! I finally see you again."
The man was none other than Renee's despicable uncle, Elon Barnes.
'You again?"
Renee snorted. "Leave me alone, you lowlife. Every time I come to visit my parents, you're always here."
"Sigh, you're right, Ren, I am a lowlife. But thank god, I come here to wait for you every year and now I finally get to see you
again..."
Elon wiped away his tears and said, "You have no idea what I’ve been through all these years. I missed you so much!"
Renee sneered, "Missed me? More like you missed my money."
"Ugh..."
Elon rubbed his chin, feeling a bit awkward.
"What's the matter? You've already finished the 7 million dollars Stefan gave you four years ago?"
"Oh, those? They're long gone!"
Elon waved his hand and said regretfully, "I thought I'd use that money to invest in the stock market and make even more money,
but luck wasn't on my side... I lost it all in the last two years. I've lost everything."
"Is that so? Well, it's none of my business."
A mocking smile crept onto Renee's face. "You wouldn't be so naive to think that I would actually help you out, right?"
She was not a saint.
She still vividly remembered what Elon did to the Everheart family. She was already showing him mercy not settling the scores
with him afterwards.
"No, that's not it. I'm a new man now. I've turned over a new leaf and I'm now making an honest living. The reason I come here to
wait for you every year is because I care about our relationship as a family. I hope we can let bygones be bygones and become
a loving family again."
Elon's words were quite sincere.
Four years could indeed change a lot of things.
At least the Elon now was no longer the despicable lowlife that he once was.
His changes impressed Renee.
"Oh, how are you making an honest living now?"
"It's all thanks to your husband's help!"
Elon spoke of Stefan with unbridled admiration. "Four years ago, I lost all my money, and I didn't know where you were. I didn't
know what to do, so I shamelessly went to Mr. Hunt for help. Not only did he give me more money, he also gave me a job. I'm
now working as a workshop manager at a small processing factory under the H Group, earning tens of thousands of dollars a
year!"
"Stefan would do something like that?"
Renee was surprised.
"Not only is he kind, he's also caring!"
Elon continued, "For the past few years, he's the first to come here to visit your parents' grave on their death anniversary. Look at
this row of flower bouquets. Aren't they grand? They're from him. He would come here personally every year, rain or shine!"
"So... it really is him!"
Renee looked at the row of flowers with mixed feelings.
Although she no longer had any feelings forthat man, she felt touched knowing that he actually had such a "human" side to him.
That means he was also the one who dropped the amber pendant.
"Ren, I'm so happy to see you again. Allow me to treat you and Mr. Hunt to a meal to celebrate our reunion and to show my
gratitude!"
Without waiting for Renee's reply, Elon took out his phone and called Stefan.
