“What’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?” Quinton asked her hesitantly.
He could tell that something was weighing on Renee’s mind, and he could pretty much guess what it was.
He didn’t want to open Pandora’s box, so he didn’t ask her about it, but now it seemed like he could not ignore it any longer.
He had to face the consequences of his actions.
“Ask me whatever you want to ask.
I’ll tell you everything honestly.” Quinton stopped smiling and became serious too.
Renee clenched her fists and said, “I want you to tell me about what happened in the past with Stefan.
Are you really as innocent as you claim?” “I never said that I was innocent.
Every battle will have a winner and a loser.
Stefan was capable but shameless when he defeated me back then.
I have nothing to say about that.
The only thing I can do is try to defeat him this time...” His eyes glittered, and he said shrewdly, “Like now.
It’s a great chance for us to defeat him since everyone is now on our side.
We need to grab this opportunity!” “Both you and him might not be innocent... but Joanne is,” Renee said softly after gathering
her courage.
“Shut up!” Quinton’s expression instantly became sinister and twisted.
He was no longer his gentle self, and he looked like a stranger now.
Joanne had always been a taboo topic, so nobody had dared to bring her up in front of him.
“Quinton, we have to talk about this if you trust me and want to leave that pain behind.” Renee carefully put her hand on
Quinton’s shoulder and asked softly, “Joanne didn’t betray you.
She just wanted to take revenge on you, right?” “What do you know?” Quinton pushed Renee aside, his eyes filled with rage.
He snarled at her, “Did Stefan trick you? It’s only been a few days, but you’re already on his side? Why do you trust everything
he says instead of me? You think that your man is more important than your brother, don’t you?” “No!” Renee couldn’t believe
how Quinton was acting.
He was always so tolerant and loving, but it was clear that he became unhinged when it came to Joanne.
He couldn’t tell right from wrong, and would lash out at anybody.
“You know that if it came down to that, I would always choose you.
If I didn’t, I would not still see you as my brother even after you blinded him and nearly got him killed.
I’m just worried about you, and I’m trying to help you get over your grudges...” “If you’re on my side and want to help me, you
should ruin the Hunt family and Stefan... Only then can my past humiliation and ruined face recover.” Quinton’s difficult past had
turned him into a stubborn and radical person.
He did not want forgiveness or reconciliation, or some sort of cheesy happy ending.
He wanted to take revenge and win.
He wanted to feel the joy and triumph of ruining Stefan Hunt.
