Chapter: 1486

However, she could not free herself, and was helplessly taken away� With that, the rowdy mob screaming for Stefan�s blood was leaderless, and no one made a sound.

Stefan stared at a teary-eyed Renee with a smile that did not reach his eyes.

�Go on, cry. Weren�t you being so emotional just a moment ago?�

�Uh�� Renene felt a little awkward as she wiped her tears. At this point, crying wasn�t an option without Leia�s support, because doing it alone was a little� weak.

Naturally, she had cried herself weary and used up all her patience, so she glowered as she cut to the chase, �Our time is valuable, so tell me-what do I have to do for you to let him go?�

Jovan was blind and hardly athletic-Stefan could kill him easily as if he was crushing an ant with his boot. She certainly could not afford to upset him�

�Why should I spare him? He sabotaged my business and harassed me all the time.� Stefan remained seated, haughty as ever.

�So you�re admitting to abducting him! How much bad blood could there be between

brothers?! But word of advice-don�t kill him, or you�ll have your comeuppance for being an ingrate!� Renee warned, pointing at his face. She wanted to stop Stefan from hurting Jovan for both their sakes-Jovan was basically his parent reincarnated, and how was it different from patricide if Stefan killed him?!

Stefan, however, was left frowning in confusion. �What are you talking about? What bad blood with what brother?�

�I know you never considered Jovan a brother, but you are his biological brother. I�m telling you not to hurt him if you want to avoid divine retribution!� Renee declared righteously.

�Jovan?� Stefan came to a realization and chuckled coolly. �So, you�re actually talking about Jovan after all that?�

Renee did a double take as she wondered what Stefan was talking about.

Who else would I come for?�

Stefan stayed silent, and simply stared at her with a meaningful look in her eyes.

Renee lost her patience, and glanced at her surroundings before quietly saying, �I�ve cried and begged-l�ve prostrated myself as much as I can, so please, haven�t you had enough? Let him go, or you�ll suffer too if I expose you.�

�So, you�re done with crying and begging� and now you�re threatening me?� Stefan folded his legs and smiled meaningfully, twirling his glass of tequila and taking a sip of it. �Don�t you know what the price for threatening me is?�

Renee rolled her eyes at the man�s love of being dramatic-what else could it be other than another round of bickering?

�I don�t want to cause a scene, and no one wants word of this to get out,� she retorted

staunchly.

�But if you insist, I don�t mind knocking your teeth out!�

Stefan was surprisingly not upset, and actually teased her, �That actually rhymes. Maybe you�re working part-time as a rapper?�

Renene was speechless-when did he become so cringeworthy?! That was the worst joke she�d ever heard!

�Since you came for Jovan, I�m curious to ask-how far would you go for him?� There was a gleam in Stefan�s eyes as he looked at her. Truthfully, he had no idea where Jovan was, but he was still curious about how far she would go for Jovan.

Renee was no fool, however, and sneered, �Judging from that question, I guess you�re not letting him go unless you get to mess with me?� JrNovels.com
