Chapter: 1027
�What do you mean?�

�I�ve been through it before. Stefan is a great boss but not a great husband. I�m scared that he can�t reciprocate Miss Seraphina�s love for him. If she and the Murphy family turn their backs on the Hunt family, this will only put the Hunt family in danger. I�m only doing this for the sake of the Hunts!� Renee explained exaggeratingly.

In actuality, she was opposed to their marriage because she recalled Mr. Q telling her that if Stefan and Seraphina married, they would be a stable family, which would give him an edge in gaining custody of Adie and Abby if he were to try to take them from her one day.

As a result, it wasn�t that Stefan couldn�t marry, but that she wanted to marry before him.

Seraphina let out a snort. �Thank you, Miss Renee, for your generosity, but I�m not the same as you. Stefan and I have been best friends since childhood, so we will get along well. He will be a good husband, and I will be a good wife. We will never fight. Maybe you�ll never grasp what it means when the right people come together, but when the wrong people get together, things definitely won�t be right!�

Renee offered no rebuttal to Seraphina�s statements, and just smiled curtly. �You�re right. I�m just a busybody who worries about nothing. I should not have intervened between you two. Please accept my apologies.�

She didn�t want to remain any longer since it would just make things worse. Instead of preventing them from marrying, she had to marry Mr. Q as soon as possible.

If Stefan could do it, she certainly could too.

After Renee had left, Seraphina was even more thrilled. �Miss Renee is gone. Nobody can stop us now!�

She looked up at Stefan and held his arm as she exclaimed, �Let�s go, Stef. Let�s get married!�

However, he yanked his arm from her grasp, and his handsome face turned cold. �Enough. It�s hilarious when it�s a joke, but it�s no longer funny when taken seriously.�

Seraphina�s smile faded instantly, and she cautiously asked him, �Stef, what do you mean it�s a joke?�

�When I said I�d marry you, I was joking. Take nothing seriously.� His tone was ice cold as he spoke.

�Well, what about when you said we are a strong alliance and would make a perfect match?� She asked hesitantly.

�That was a joke too. I thought you would understand since you have known me for so long,� Stefan said indifferently.

�No. I don�t understand!� She clenched her fists tightly, feeling humiliated. �You can make jokes about everything except emotions and marriage. I believed you because you said it. I-�

�Since you know that marriage isn�t something to joke about, we can�t get married just for the sake of marrying. It would destroy the sanctity of marriage.� Stefan�s expression was solemn.

Although he was heartless sometimes, he was serious about marriage. He won�t marry someone else for fun just to anger Renee.

�Hahahaha. You must be joking. If you think that our marriage will ruin the sacredness of a marriage, then what about yours with Miss Renee? Didn�t you marry her without loving her too? You didn�t even know her back then, yet the wedding was set after three days. I�m your childhood best friend who has known you your entire life, but you�re saying it�d damage the sanctity of the marriage?� She questioned, her voice trembling with sorrow. She knew that she was supposed to calm herself down and keep up the act as his best friend to convince him. Even if she couldn�t, she could at least stay beside him and accompany him forever.

But the words he said hurt her. She wondered why she wasn�t eligible to be his wife since she was equal to Renee in every way. JrNovels.com
