At the very least, she wanted to hear Renee admit to every sinful deed before giving up on all hope.

The woman tugged on the chains, trying her best to struggle out, only to find these chains being made from a certain material. Not even a professional bodybuilder could ever dream of breaking them.

Hence, she knew that she had no way to get out of this situation, despite knowing many methods that could have potentially helped. She was just like a wingless bird, and she was completely at their mercy.

�Hmph, what else can I say when you two have already beat around the bush and made such a big commotion?� Renee�s beautiful face was painted with a layer of ice. She didn�t even bother looking at Francine and Seraphina.

�You�re still as tough as before, Renee Everheart. I put in a lot of effort in capturing you, but nothing worked. You�re always on high alert, and you won�t let anyone near you.�

�It�s a shame that you still missed one little detail. You contacted my goddaughter Shirley on your own accord��

�I was indeed foolish. I didn�t expect you to have any relations with Shirley White��

�Of course, you didn�t. I intentionally found a woman who looked like you for my son when you disappeared for four whole years. I hoped that Shirley could replace you, but my son was stubborn. He only loves you.

�But I ended up taking a liking to that child, so I asked her to be my goddaughter.�

Renee was able to catch on in an instant. She chuckled coldly. �So when I contacted Shirley, she contacted you too. If my guess is right, she even drugged that cup of coffee for you, didn�t she?�

Francine stayed silent, not denying these allegations. Renee had always been a smart woman, which was why she admired her to begin with.

�Hah, well, I can�t blame anyone but myself for this. I was fooled by Star Actress Shirley�s innocent demeanor. As expected from her, I suppose, her acting skills are immaculate.� Renee gave a thumbs up as she shook her head, smiling sadly.

�Does that mean you�re admitting to all the crimes you have committed?� Francine asked as she tightened her grasp on the railing, her entire body trembling.

�What crimes?� Renee lifted her head and stared straight at Francine with her usual thorny attitude.

�What do you think? Do you feel no regret for what your demented brother has done to Stef and Seraphina? He ruined their lives!�

�You can insult me but don�t you dare insult my brother. I was the one who made the decision to lure Stefan Hunt into the trap. So I�ll take full responsibility for what happened.�

Renee could guess that her brother had definitely crossed the line, knowing his personality. Hence, if someone had to pay for this to die down peacefully, she was willing to volunteer.

�Ugh, he�s still my brother after all!�

�Fine then. I can�t believe you feel no remorse, even in this state! How could you continue acting so stubborn!?� Francine nearly fainted from anger, shivering uncontrollably.

�What bad luck. It�s my fault for having such poor judgment. I thought you were a kind child, and I secretly treated you like you were my own daughter. I told Stefan that he should never betray you, even if he had to betray the entire world!� JrNovels.com
