“A delivery?”
Renee was puzzled. Was it her marriage certificate? It’s done already?
But she gave Mr. Q the address of her apartment. It wouldn’t be sent to the Hunt Villa.
She glanced at Stefan, who was sitting on the sofa. She hesitated to speak.
She did now know how he would react if he saw the marriage certificate... Would he fly into a rage or would he remain
expressionless? She suddenly found herself a bit curious.
“Why are you looking at me? Are you receiving something illegal?”
Stefan tried probing her.
“Of course not. I’m a law-abiding citizen. I don’t have anything illegal.”
“Then why do you look so guilty? What’s the delivery?”
“It’s none of your business. I have no obligation to tell you.”
“Are you sure it’s none of my business?”
“Of course it’s none of your business!”
“Then don’t come looking for me afterwards.”
The look on his handsome face was unreadable and his tone had hidden meanings.
Renee thought he was behaving strangely, but she was too eager to see what Mr. Q looked like, so she ignored him.
The courier was waiting anxiously outside the gate. When he saw Renee walking over, he waved at her warmly and gave her a
small package. “Hi. This is your package. Please sign here.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Renee checked the shipping address on the package. It was indeed sent from the Civil Affairs Bureau.
She turned around to leave, but the courier hastily stopped her.
“Wait! There’s a delivery for a Mr. Hunt too. Can you please pass it to him?”
The courier handed another package to Renee.
“A delivery for Stefan?”
Renee took it with a skeptical expression.
The two packages were about the same size, but Stefan’s package did not have a shipping address, so it was impossible to tell
who sent it.
“Whatever, it doesn’t concern me.”
She suppressed her curiosity and shifted her attention away from Stefan’s delivery.
She returned to the villa with the two packages.
“Here, you have a delivery too.”
Renee handed Stefan his delivery.
“Thank you.”
He casually put the package aside without any intention of opening it, as if he already knew what was inside. Instead, his full
attention was on Renee’s package.
Renee was eager to open the package, but when she noticed Stefan watching, she felt a bit guilty. She asked, “Why are you
staring at me?”
“I want to see what your delivery is.”
“That’s none of your business, you creep!”
Renee glared at him and turned around to hide the package from his sight.
“You don’t even dare to let me see what it is? It must be something really important.”
