Chapter: 1228
"Of course, you almost finished up Scarlet's stock!"
"Then� Did I drink to my heart's content?"
"What do you think? If you drink any more, you're going to get alcohol poisoning."
"So can you tell me.. why Stefan won't... choose me? He.. What are his reasons?" Renee stood up, swaying slightly on her feet. She held onto the man's collar as she waited for his answer.
Jovan was initially still rather tipsy, but this sobered him up. He frowned coldly. "Why are you still thinking about it?"
"Of course, I am. Wouldn't you want to know why you were abandoned?" Renee covered her face, sobbing into her hands.
"Why are you men like this? He was the one who insisted on getting legally married, then he just disappeared! He swore to spend the rest of his life with me! How could my love life be so messed up?!
"You made your choice to shoot yourself in the foot. Who else can blame but yourself?" Jovan scoffed as he helped her out of the restaurant, standing by the road while they waited for their ride.
"I didn't! I really didn't! I gave myself choices, but.. they all left... They left�" Renee waved her arms around, clearly agitated as she recounted the people she once considered as partners. "Stefan left� Liam left� Even Mr. Q left! Maybe I'm cursed, that must be it!"
"Alright, alright, I promise that I will never leave. I'll stick to you like superglue, okay?"
"I don't want you though, I want Stefan... Just tell me, why is he leaving me? Didn't you say you know the reason? If you don't spill it, I'll annoy you the whole day!"
Seeing how pained Renee's expression was, Jovan was heartbroken and jealous, and a cruel fury burned in his chest. 'Why? Why does Stefan Hunt get all her passion and love?"
He didn't want to be some kind of second male lead who loved and protected the female lead unconditionally. He was done being in Stefan's shadow, and he was in second place.
"Do you really want to know why?" Jovan asked coldly as he held Renee firmly to keep her standing, all while scanning her flushed red face.
"Mhm, I can't sleep if I don't." Renee nodded drowsily, her brain foggy though she insisted on searching for answers.
"Then listen up, I'm only saying this once," Jovan said in a monotonous voice, his gaze chilling. "He's doing this because of Briar Desrosiers. He's doing this for her."
"Briar� Desrosiers?" Renee shuddered slightly, then completely passed out, as if her soul had literally left her body.
Just then, a vehicle arrived at the entrance. "Hello sir, did you call for a cab? What's your destination?"
The man carried Renee in his arms, and looked down at her with a frigid stare. "My place."
The next day, Renee woke up with a horrible hangover, still in quite a daze. JrNovels.com
