Seraphina gritted her teeth and said, “Didn’t you hear what the employees call you? If this
goes on, Stefan will remember everything sooner or later, and it’ll be bad for his brain if that
happens. We both know what he experienced a year ago and how painful it was for him.
He’s better now, but seeing you will probably affect him. Don’t you feel bad harming him
again and again like this?”
“I... I didn’t think of that.” Renee lowered her head in shame after hearing that. Stefan nearly
died by her hand a year ago, so she swore to God that she would never get back with him in
exchange for his safety and happiness.
However, even if she didn’t do anything, sometimes things developed beyond her
expectations. The grudge between Quinton and Stefan was the perfect example-she was
caught in the middle of it, so she couldn’t just stand aside and do nothing about it...
Seraphina sniffled, wiping tears from her eyes. “Miss Everheart, I’m sorry. I’m not trying to
insult you, but my relationship with Stefan hasn’t been easy. Our relationship has just
become a little stable, but now you’ve appeared in his life again. You know how much I love
Stefan, so I can’t just pretend that I don’t care.”
Seraphina sounded very pitiful as she spoke, and finally bowed to Renee apologetically. “I
know it’s because of your generosity that I can be with Stefan, so I do what you ask me to
and be nice to him... but when you appear, he becomes uncontrollable, and I can’t get
through to him at all. I’m so sorry.”
Stefan, who had just opened the door and walked out, happened to witness that scene.
Immediately, he walked over and stood in front of Seraphina protectively as he glared at
Renee. “What are you doing? Our negotiation is over, so why haven’t you left? Are you
trying to bully my fiancee again?”
Renee’s heart ached when she saw how concerned he was about
Seraphina. Mr. Hunt, you worry too much. This is your territory, so there’s no way I’d come
here to bully your fiancee. Unfortunately, she doesn’t feel secure in the relationship, and
thinks that I’m trying to seduce you, so in short... You’re not treating her well enough, and
are failing to show her how much you love her.”
She reached out and patted his shoulder like an elder as she advised sincerely, “Be more
lovey-dovey with Sera, she loves you very much. Don’t fancy wild thoughts and hurt her.”
Renee’s generosity made Seraphina feel inferior, so the latter kept her head bowed.
However, Stefan’s face turned very gloomy. He hated it when she appeared so openminded and unaffected. His lip curled, and
he stated coldly, “I don’t need an outsider like
you to comment on my relationship with my fiancee.”
“Alright then, I’ll leave you be. Goodbye.” Smiling, Renee waved at the two of them and left
H Group.
Seraphina held Stefan’s arm and asked cautiously, “Stefan, are you mad at me?”
“Of course not,” Stefan replied absent-mindedly, feeling frustrated.
“Many reporters are waiting outside, making a scene and asking for your explanation. The
netizens even paint you as a demonic and bloodthirsty monster... If you’re uncomfortable
giving an answer, my family can help you resolve this,” Seraphina said earnestly, eager to
please Stefan.
“Just leave it for now.”
“But it doesn’t look good for you. Everyone can tell that it’s because of the Night Demon.
He’s Renee’s brother, so it might have been Renee who added fuel to the fire...”
“It’s not important.” At the moment, he did not plan to make any counterattack since he had
made a deal with Renee to not take action for ten days.
Seraphina’s insecurities immediately worsened. She could tell that he did not want to make
a counterattack because of Renee, and thus, some wicked ideas started to form in her
mind...
