Briar�s expression turned ugly. She secretly clenched her fists and tried to look innocent and wronged. But when she looked at Renee, she could not suppress the hatred in her eyes.

Francine was angered too. She berated Stefan, �Fan, do you even know what you�re talking about? Briar is pregnant with your child and she�ll be giving birth in a few months, while you�re about to divorce this woman. Briar is the woman you�ll spend the rest of your life with. How can she be more suitable than Briar?�

�You said it yourself, Renee and I are about to get a divorce, which means we�re currently still husband and wife. These tasks are more suited for a wife.�

Stefan's eyes were on Renee the whole time he said that. His gaze was deep and complicated.

�You�!�

Francine was speechless. She did not know how to deal with her son.

�Can you tell me what�s wrong with you? Why are you in the hospital? Is your hematophobia acting up?�

She walked over to Stefan and looked him up and down with a worried expression.

Stefan closed his mouth and chose silence.

Renee was going to leave, but she suddenly turned back around to look at the three people in the ward with a weird smile on her face.

�I�m really sorry, Miss Francine, Mr. Hunt was bitten by a snake while trying to save me. He�s now a quadriplegia and may be paralyzed forever��

She looked at Briar with a sympathetic expression and said, �Miss Desrosiers, you�ll have a hard life ahead of you. However, since you and Mr. Hunt truly loves each other, I don�t think you�ll mind. In the future, he�ll have to rely on you as his crutch. I, as the ex-wife, wish you two a good marriage and a lasting relationship!�

�What� what?!�

Upon hearing this, Francine almost lost her balance.

Briar�s expression was even more interesting.

�Impossible! Impossible! You must be lying!�

For the first time ever, instead of helping the unsteady Francine, she grabbed Renee�s arm like a mad woman and said, �You�re lying! You don�t want to get dumped, so you�re trying to force me to quit, aren�t you?!�

Renee sneered and shook off Briar�s hand hard. �You can ask Stefan yourself.�

Stefan, lying in bed with an unreadable expression, looked coldly at Briar and said, �She�s not lying. I really am paralyzed. Would you still marry me?�
