�Silly man, you�re sleeping, but you�re still on guard. Can�t you relax a little?�

Renee dragged over a chair and sat beside his bed, staring at his charming face greedily. After that, she inevitably extended her hand to gently rubbed his furrowed brows. Her slim fingertips were rather warm.

She wished that he could be happy and relaxed. Even while dreaming, she wanted to see him happy. That was what she mentioned to Margaret. It was the thing she was about to do.

It was true that it was destined she had to leave him. But before leaving, she wanted to come up with ways to cure him. She decided to heal both his body and mind.

Her decision was against her brother�s wishes, so she could not let her brother learn about it. This decision might very likely push her into an abyss, but she would not retreat.

It was because she had to be worthy of the love Stefan held for her. She wanted to leave without owing him anything. Stefan was a very vigilant person. After he got seriously injured, his vigilance grew.

The touch on his brows jolted him from his dream. He grabbed Renee�s wrist and said in an extremely tender manner, �You. I finally caught you. You can�t leave now!�

�Wha��

She did not expect him to be so vigilant. He woke up just with the lightest of touches. Consequently, her mind went blank because she did not know what she should do.

He stared at her with his deep-set eyes. They were as dazzling as the stars and as vast as the ocean. He then continued to say gently, �You know what? I was running a nightmare. I dreamed that I fell from a high place and hit my head against a rock. My head bled vigorously, and my limbs were torn apart from the fall. I wanted to reassemble my limbs, but they were so broken that no matter how I tried, they wouldn�t stick to me. After that, a halo appeared before me. It was so dazzling that I couldn�t stare straight at it. A woman�s figure was in the middle of the halo. I guessed that must be you��

Renee was at a loss for words. She pursed her lips in silence. Stefan�s eyes appeared so energetic, so she could not tell if he was blind.

�I thought I must have fallen to hell, but I knew that I was in heaven the moment I saw the figure in the halo. My heaven is where�d you be��

He held her hand and put it on his distinctly featured face. He then acted coquettishly with her like a kitten and intimately rubbed her hand against his face.

The stubbles on his face rubbed against her palm, and it softened her heart. Tears rolled down her cheeks. When she was about to speak, Stefan said, �Promise me. Let�s stay together from now on, okay, Seraphina?�

Renee was struck speechless. She stared at him in a daze. So, his eyes were not cured. Besides, he mistook her for Seraphina again.

�I felt very cold while I was in the river, and I bled a lot. In the deep and endless darkness, I almost failed to hold on several times. Luckily, you were with me. I remembered you giving me CPR, and we hugged each other tightly like vines. I remembered the feeling of risking our lives together, so I�ll pester you for the rest of my life. Don�t even dream of getting rid of me even though I�m blind!�

Stefan held her hand and refused to let go. He then passionately kissed the back of her hand with his thin lips and said fervent, romantic words.

She did not find such a passionate side of him unfamiliar, but now, the target of his passion was no longer her� What was more excruciating than that?

Enduring the heart-wrenching pain, she almost could not breathe. She tried her best to break free and sobbed, saying, �You�re mistaken. I�m not Seraphina.�
