After saying that, Renee grabbed a piece of chicken feet and shoved it into Stefan’s mouth.
Stefan had never been treated in such a disrespectful manner. He looked like he was about to break into a fit of rage.
“Hahaha! This is so funny. Why does he look so hilarious? Well done, Mommy!” Adie had been cold all night long. He finally
laughed. He also didn’t seem as hostile toward Stefan as he did before.
This was the first time Stefan saw Adie laughing so joyfully in front of him. This was how a four-year-old should behave.
Stefan felt his heart melting away, and he naturally stopped feeling angry. He began to taste the food seriously.
After the two children stopped laughing, they also began eating the food Renee prepared.
It didn’t take very long for them to clear their plates.
Renee was very satisfied that they seemed to thoroughly enjoy the food.
The greatest sense of accomplishment for a chef was to see their food being finished.
At night, Renee tucked her children in.
Adie and Abby were like two sticky candies. One hugged Renee on the left, and the other hugged her on the right. They were on
Renee’s old bed while pestering her to tell them bedtime stories.
“Mommy, won’t you tell us how you fell in love with our handsome Daddy?” Abby asked sheepishly with a sweet smile on her
face.
She knew that Renee had loved Stefan for a long time, but she never knew why.
Adie ruined her fun by speaking like an adult. “Why couldn’t you ask Mommy for a better story like how she won car races, how
she became a bigshot hacker, how she fought so well, and who she learned it all from?
To Adie, Renee was almighty and shouldn’t be tied to Stefan.
Renee closed her eyes helplessly. “Stop talking and go to bed!”
“Come on, Mommy. Tell me. I’m very curious... Let me guess. Did Daddy save you like how a prince would save a princess?
Was that why you were moved?”
Abby insisted on getting an answer from Renee.
Feeling helpless and wanting to convince Abby to sleep, Renee had no choice but to tell her the truth. “Fine. I’ll tell you. To be
honest... I was attracted by his face.”
“Mommy, you were a vain young lady, weren’t you? When you met such a handsome man back then, you were smitten by his
charm. It was love at first sight!”
Renee recalled her past. It was rather ridiculous.
She was clearly such a rational person. She never fell for a man so easily. In fact, she’d respond coldly to all her admirers.
However, she ended up falling for Stefan, whom she’d only met on a single occasion.
She fell in love with him right away just because he was handsome. After that, she willingly became his wife for four years.
Those were the loneliest years of her life... and she deserved it!
“Mommy, Abby feels the same way you do. I also fell in love with Daddy at first sight. I’ve never seen such a good-looking man.
I’ve decided that we’ll stay with him from now!” Abby said in a serious tone.
“Abby, you’re being too naive. So what if he’s good-looking? Mommy needs someone who can love and protect her...This jerk
clearly doesn’t love her, and he won’t protect her. Mommy won’t be happy if she stays with him!” Adie exclaimed.
Renee was quick to agree. “Your brother is right. You have to find someone who’s good to you and not just someone you like.
Looks alone won’t bring you happiness!”
