�How could you not understand me with that smart mind of yours?� The old man shook his head, pity on his wrinkled face.

�Ren, we know that Stefan wronged and hurt you in the past, but don�t you think you�ve hurt him just as much? You�ve put him through so much torture throughout these years, so are you still not satisfied? I just think it�s time to settle down now, alright?� Timothy sighed deeply.

�You know, that grandson of mine confided in me for the first time last night. He said he felt miserable, he had tried doing everything to win you back, but nothing was working. I couldn�t help but sympathize with him, since I am his grandfather after all.�

�I know you still love him� Somewhere in your heart, I know you do. So, please listen to me and stop all of this. Don�t chase him away, or you might regret it again.�

After hearing Timothy�s words, Renee froze up, but soon found the entire situation quite humorous.

�Grandpa Timothy, you know I�ve always respected you, because I thought you were a fair and just person. But it looks like you�re still somewhat biased towards your own grandson. I can tell you with the utmost certainty that his �misery� is all just an act to push the blame onto me, so that I become the villain in this story� In my opinion, he�s nothing but a heartless and shameless prick! How could I possibly still hold love for someone like that?!�

Timothy was able to understand his grandson�s misery and helplessness even more now. It was simply despairing to realize that someone who once loved you wholeheartedly had given up on you completely. It was especially painful when you had developed feelings for them as well, only to realize that it was too late because you didn�t cherish them from the beginning�

�Ren, whatever you say now doesn�t matter, but I really hope you are telling the truth. Don�t act as if you don�t care when you really do on the inside. When you�ve really missed the chance to pursue what your heart desires, you will only hurt yourself the most.� Timothy�s gaze was sad as he looked at her.

�Don�t worry, Grandpa, I�ve always been an honest girl. My love for Stefan Hunt died the moment we got a divorce. I�m not trying to play games with him either � I really want to cut ties with him so that we can find our happiness on our own,� Renee replied calmly.

�Alright, alright, I won�t try to convince you otherwise. Ah, it�s just a shame that my grandson�s sincere efforts are going to waste!�

�Relax, Grandpa, your grandson is just playing the victim here. All that sincerity is just a facade! It�s to hide his bad intentions! He probably just felt annoyed that you kept urging him to get married, which is why he made you turn to me instead!� Renee huffed. She figured that she could basically read the man�s mind by now after spending all those years married to him.

�So, this thing that he told me to give you the moment you wake up� Would this be considered bad intentions on his end too?� Timothy asked softly as he told the maid to bring over the Rainbow Glaze that Renee had wanted.

The woman was absolutely shocked to see the beautiful relic, and was unable to take her eyes off of it for quite some while. �Hunt is just� going to give this to me? But why?�

Renee left the Hunt manor with the Rainbow Glaze in her arms, still feeling rather conflicted. She then called Rubio, hoping to settle matters regarding the Everheart Residence as soon as she could.

The two decided to meet up in a lovely villa within Care Farm. Rubio was smoking a cigarette at the time, a young woman in her early twenties sitting right next to him.

�You�re quite a diligent woman, I must say! You were able to get your hands on this priceless treasure that many would sell their souls for, in such a short period no less! I knew you could do it � you�re capable and tenacious, as expected from my confidant.�

Renee had placed the Rainbow Glaze into a beautiful box, holding it with both her arms carefully the whole time. She smiled softly and responded, �You�re too kind, Rubio. It�s just an artifact, really. There�s probably loads of substitutes out there. It�s not like it can grant immortality, so how could people be willing to sell their souls for such a thing?�

Rubio just smiled, his eyes fixated on the box in Renee�s hands, looking as sly as a fox.

However, the young woman next to him scoffed at Renee. �Ugh, uncultured much? Do you know just how valuable the Rainbow Glaze is? Sure, immortality sounds great, but this thing can cure any illness! It even helps chase bad omens away!�

�It�s rumored that it can help freshen your mind and extend your lifespan if you pour drinks from it. Back then, the Hunts and Carmine Pawnshop went head to head with each other just to get their hands on this treasure! The Hunts needed it to extend their second son�s life after all, and because of that, that family nearly-� JrNovels.com
