Her eyes were glued to Stefan�s feet. She wanted to be aware of his position at all times in order to find an opportunity to escape.

But that bastard Stefan would sit on the side of the bed from time to time, as if he was deliberately toying with her. Every time he did, it would scare the hell out of her. Then, he would walk away, but never too far off.

After repeating this a few times, Renee could not take it anymore. She debated whether she should just rush out of the bed and get it over with. When she saw him take off his shirt to go take a shower, she finally heaved a sigh of relief.

She planned to leave as soon as Stefan walked into the bathroom. But before he did, his phone suddenly rang. The caller was Seraphina, the other option Grandpa Timothy gave Stefan.

As Grandpa Timothy said, both the Murphy family and Seraphina were very anxious. They hoped the matter between Stefan and Seraphina could reach a conclusion soon. If the two strong families could unite, the future would be bright for them.

Stefan returned to the bedside, picked up his phone that was charging, and accepted the call.

�Lil� bro, are you home?�

Seraphina asked in a cheerful voice.

�What�s the matter?�

�To thank you for taking care of me, I�ve got a surprise for you. Trust me, you�ll love it.�

�If you�re home, I�ll bring the surprise over to you right now!�

Stefan was not interested in the so-called surprise, but thinking of the �audience� under the bed, his thin lips curled into a smile and he said eagerly, �I�m at the Hunt Residence. You can bring it here!�

Who was that? Bring what here?

Renee could not hear the conversation very clearly from under the bed.

But what was certain was that she would have to stay under the bed for a lot longer.

�Damn it� Are you serious? I�m not gonna be stuck here all night, am I?�

Renee thumped the floor in frustration. She was gonna go crazy!!! About ten minutes later, Seraphina knocked on the door of Stefan�s room.

�That was quick.�

Stefan expressed his surprise when he opened the door.

�Of course!� JrNovels.com
