Stefan�s handsome face seemed to be covered in a layer of frost. His eyes were even colder than usual. �Mom, can you stop causing trouble for me? I have enough to worry about as it is.�

�How am I causing trouble? I�m��

�That�s enough!� Stefan stood up coldly, turned to Renee, and threw out these threatening words, �If you want to come back, bring the children with you. The Hunt family will treat you well. If you insist on going against the Hunt family, I�ll do everything in my power to stop you!�

After that, he went upstairs expressionlessly. Obviously, Francine was open-minded, but Stefan was still a very arrogant man. How could he accept marrying into a woman�s family? How could he let his children take another family name?

Renee actually heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Stefan lose his temper. If Stefan had actually agreed to Francine�s proposal, Renee would have no idea what she should do. It�s not like she could lash out at them for being considerate to her! She would much rather fight him fair and square. At least, if she lost, she would be able to accept it.

�See how upset your son is? I don�t think he wants to be with me at all. Please stop it with the pointless matchmaking�� Renee said to Francine while holding her chin, pretending to be disappointed.

�He�s not being honest with himself!� Francine was furious with her dumb and stubborn son. She asked Renee, �What I want to know is if you�re willing to reconcile with Stefan. You can see for yourself how happy it is when the four of you live together. There�s no need to make things ugly.�

�If he agrees to do what you said � marry into my family, let me have the final say in everything, and let the children take my surname � of course I�m okay with it.� Renee agreed without hesitation.

First, knowing Stefan�s personality, she knew that there was no way he would humble himself and accept all those conditions. This outcome was impossible from the start. Second, if Stefan actually agreed to it for some unfathomable reason, having a handsome, capable, and obedient husband like that would not actually be that bad. It was at times like this that Renee felt envious of men. They gained so much from marrying a wife! They did not have to bear children, they did not have to handle household chores, and the children would take their surname. Their life would not be affected at all. It was all reward and no risk!

Francine�s eyes lit up. She grabbed Renee�s hand and confirmed it again with great excitement, �My good daughter-in-law, are you serious? As long as my son is willing to marry into your family, you�ll reconcile with him?�

Renee nodded and said, �Of course I�m serious!� There was no way it would happen anyway!

�Great! Wait for my good news. I�ll go persuade that brat right now. If he doesn�t agree, I�ll beat him up!� With that bold statement, Francine went upstairs in high spirits.

Renee was not worried at all. She calmly ate with the children.

�Mommy, will you really marry Bad Daddy?� Adie had a very strong comprehension ability. During the meal, he had already figured out what the adults were talking about. He now asked Renee curiously.

�Do you want me to marry him?� Renee asked playfully.

�If that bad man is willing to marry into our house and listen to everything you say, I think we should consider it� After all, he seems very capable. He can definitely help you in many things.� Adie�s view on the matter was very pragmatic.

�Hahaha!� Adie�s pragmatism made Renee laugh. That part of him was very similar to Stefan. She asked again, �In that case, between him and Mr. Q, who would you choose?�

�Well�� Adie rubbed his chin and seemed to be in a dilemma. �Q has his strong points, but Bad Daddy has his values too. It�s such a difficult choice.�

�I know!� Abby raised her hands high and said with sparkling eyes, �Since Daddy Q and Bad Daddy are both pretty good, why not just accept both of them, Mommy? One can take care of the cooking and household chores for you, while the other can take care of your business. You can marry Bad Daddy first, then marry Daddy Q, and then you�ll have both!�

�That�s right. Abby�s proposal is very good. I agree with what she said.� Adie also raised his hands high in support. He was very pleased to hear his sweet, foolish little sister finally say something clever for once.. JrNovels.com
