Renee scowled and lunged at Stefan. Max and his gang might have looked big and burly, but they couldn�t even take more than a couple of hits from Renee. It felt like a warm-up to her, and now, she wished to relieve her stress elsewhere. Now that Stefan was here as a volunteer, she figured that he couldn�t blame her for being violent in a lawless place like this.

To Renee�s surprise, Stefan seemed to have taken lessons from a professional martial artist, as he was able to dodge her attacks perfectly. Suddenly, their position was even more intimate than before.

Finally, the man just picked her up and started walking towards the exit of the bar.

�Just take it easy if you�re drunk. I�ll be sending you home now,� he said, his tone firm yet gentle at the same time.

�Let go of me, Hunt! Fight me if you have what it takes!� Renee kicked her feet angrily. She might lose in an argument, but she refused to believe that she�d lose in a fight.

�Something must�ve gone wrong somewhere! I refuse to yield!�

�Fine, fine, you can fight me when we get home. This isn�t a good place to show your skills after all.� Stefan spoke as if he were comforting a child, his gaze soft with affection.

�Okay, you promised, we�ll fight when we get home�� Renee mumbled, burrowing into Stefan�s chest subconsciously. The man�s body was quite warm and sturdy, and it was oddly comforting to be in his embrace. After a short while, she fell asleep, snoring lightly in his arms.

�Hold on!� Rosie exclaimed. All this while she had been standing aside, as if she were watching a romantic comedy skit. However, now that Renee was being carried away, she quickly snapped back to reality and caught up to the two.

�What is it?� Stefan stopped and asked coldly.

�Mr. Hunt, you� you can�t take Miss Everheart with you!� Rosie mustered up the courage to say.

�Why can�t I?�

�That�s because it�s inappropriate! You must have bad intentions!�

�You�re a loyal friend, but I suppose she�s told you about our relationship, hasn�t she?�

�Miss Everheart told me that you�re her ex-husband, and the worst of the worst. She said she would never forgive you!�

�Really?� Stefan glanced at the woman in his arms coldly. He then turned back to Rosie with a menacing aura, his tone prideful. �That may be correct if we were to talk in past tense, but now� we are legally married.�

�Huh?�

Rosie was at a loss for words, and lowered her head quietly. �I think he�s right. Just a while ago, Miss Everheart did say that they were now legally married again because he used some sort of trick! If they really are husband and wife on paper, I have no right to interfere!�

�So can I take her home now?� Stefan raised an eyebrow.

�Mhm!� Rosie nodded profusely. JrNovels.com
