Chapter: 1253
Ethan Murphy was so enraged that he saw red. In one violent shove he overturned the table as he threatened to fight the Hunt family.

But Stefan ignored all this as he hurried out of the Murphy residence and headed straight to his supercar. He put the pedal to the metal and sped towards Carmine Pawnshop as quickly as his car could take him.

"Where is she? Where is Renee?!"

Still wearing Mr. Q's black and white mask, he headed straight to the water prison courtyard and sharply questioned Chase of Renee's whereabouts as soon as he saw him guarding at the door.

"She's inside," replied Chase cautiously. "Our boss said he wants you to unlock the chains yourself and exchange your life for Ms. Everheart's."

Although Chase knew that the man in front of him was an impostor, he still instinctively became respectful and deferential when facing him, not least due to the naturally powerful aura that he exuded.

"In that case," said Stefan, "tell him to keep his word!"

Without hesitating for another second, he then pushed the door open and tried to head inside.

"Wait!" Chase stopped Stefan just as he was opening the door, frowning. "Think carefully before you barge in! This is the water prison. Once you go in there, you might never come out alive again, or worse, you might suffer a fate far worse than death!"

"As long as she's safe, I don't care."

Stefan took a deep breath and still pushed the door open without any hesitation.

Inside, the water level had already reached Renee's waist, and in less than five minutes, when it would reach her shoulders, at least 500 snakes, bugs, and rats would be released automatically through the holes. There would soon be plenty of venomous snakes in there, so the situation was dreadfully urgent right now.

"Renee!" Stefan's heart tightened as soon as he saw Renee All chained up, and it made him shout out her name at the top of his lungs.

"You... You really came?"

Renee had been waiting for so long that was about to doze off. She thought that the man was definitely never going to show up, so she was just about to give up, when the man really came to save her! She was moved to tears . All the doubts about how he might have just been playing with her heart in the past vanished in an instant.

"I've been looking for you for so long! Why weren't you willing to see me? Why did you have to give me up to Stefan Hunt? I've got so many things to say to you, and so many questions to ask. I..."

"Stop talking! The water level will reach a dangerous level soon! You have to get out of there right now!"

Stefan knew more than anyone else how barbarous water torture actually was, so in the four years that he ran Carmine Pawnshop, he ordered for this area to be sealed off completely. If he had known that the psychopath Q would resume the torture technique so soon after he returned, he would have ordered for it to destroyed a long time ago!

Without taking off his clothes, Stefan dived straight into the water prison and rushed to Renee's side. He then tried to unchain her with all his might.

By then, Renee was so cold that her lips turned pale, and her eyes were shining brightly as she looked at Stefan with great stirring emotions and told him, "You must've known that you're walking into a trap, yet you still came to save me! This proves that your feelings for me were genuine, so you must have a really good reason for not showing up when we were supposed to get married, right? Were you coerced by that bastard Stefan Hunt?" JrNovels.com
