Chapter 295
Stefan was pretty unhappy. “Didn’t you just say a good horse will never turn round to graze on an old pasture? Why are you
suddenly doing a 180? Aren’t you embarrassed?”
Francine pursed her lips and said arrogantly, “I am, but I don’t want to miss out on a good woman. Besides, the reason I was so
opposed to you being together before was mainly because you didn’t love her and I didn’t want you to suffer in a marriage
without love. But now, things are different...”
“How?”
“Because you’re interested in her now!”
Francine said with confidence, “All these years, very few women could catch your attention. Since you’ve finally found one who
could, of course you need to hang on to her!”
“I’m not interested in her!”
Stefan denied it coldly.
“You know better than anyone if you’re interested in her. You don’t have to convince me...”
Francine sighed and revealed a helpless expression, “Although I still don’t like her very much, but if you do, I’ll try to. I promise I
won’t treat her badly or call her the harbinger of tragedy anymore. If you need me to, I can even try to befriend her, I...”
“There’s no need!”
Stefan’s respond was very direct.”It’s over between us, so give it up.”
At the hospital.
Xavier’s broken leg was reattached and put in a cast. He had to stay in bed for half a month.
When Renee arrived at his ward, she found Christopher there.
“Mr. Jacobs.”
She nodded at him as a greeting.
Christopher was surprised to see Renee, and it showed in his eyes.
“Miss Everheart! I was just thinking about apologizing to you!”
Christopher told Renee earnestly.
“Apologize to me?”
Renee looked puzzled.
“Cecilia’s fine now. I apologize as her ex-fiance. Something must have gotten to her that day for her to lose control like that and
accuse you. Please forgive her.”
After saying that, Christopher lowered his head.
He was so sincere that Renee felt a little embarrassed. She quickly pulled him upright. “Come on, there’s no need for that.”
“Please don’t be mad with Cecy. She must not be thinking straight. She’s usually not that irrational.”
“I’m not mad at her at all. I just can’t figure out why she would accuse me and claim I pushed her into the sea. It’s a serious
accusation. She’s trying to destroy me!”
“I don’t know why either...”
Christopher said, somewhat embarrassed.
“You don’t know?”
Renee suddenly became curious and asked, “Then how do you know her accusation is not true? Did she confess to you?”
