�Silly child. What are you saying? In our eyes, Renee, you�re a wonderful girl. How can you be useless?�

Old Mr. Hunt looked at Renee lovingly, his eyes full of admiration. �Besides� My grandson has been difficult since he was a child. The fact that you�ve tamed him proves you have something in you that other girls don�t.�

�Ahem,� Renee coughed lightly. She avoided the Old Mr. Hunt�s gaze, feeling weak. She and Stefan were already formally divorced. If Old Mr. Hunt knew that, he would be enraged!

Renee hurriedly changed the subject. �Uhm, Grandpa. I went on vacation with Stefan and brought you some gifts. I hope you�ll like them.�

�Really? You�re so thoughtful. Hurry up and show me.�

Renee brought out the local specialties she had prepared ahead. �We�ve got you some coffee beans, fruit tea, and coconut powder. These are all the specialties from Semponia, and this�� Renee opened a jewelry box, revealing a beautiful round pearl. It seemed to be shining. �This is a natural black pearl found in the deepest part of Para Island. The pearl took hundreds of years to develop and has absorbed the best of the earth and sea. It has remarkable healing energy. Keeping it in the room will give you a calming effect at home.�

Although the vacation was fake, getting the pearl did cost her a fortune. It was her way of giving Old Mr. Hunt a token of appreciation before she left.

�This is a really nice pearl. I like it.�

Old Mr. Hunt played with the large black pearl in his hand, visibly pleased and amused. His granddaughter-in-law was thoughtful and had good taste. This was one gift he really adored

�Grandpa.�

At the same time, Stefan�s cold and low voice came outside the door. As Renee turned around, their eyes met.

When the two left the Beach City Courthouse, they went their separate ways as if they would never see each other again. Who knew they would meet again in just a few hours?

Without the marriage license restraining them, the way they looked at each other seemed to have changed slightly.

Old Mr. Hunt�s old eyes were filled with complicated emotions as his gaze traveled back and forth between the two.

�You two. You just came back from a vacation together. Shouldn�t you be all lovey-dovey? Why did you come to visit me separately? Did you have a fight?�

�We�re�� Renee bit her lips, feeling torn. She was unsure if she should be honest or keep lying.

Things were different before they were officially divorced. Renee could forge a lie without feeling the slightest guilt. Besides, she was not trying to deceive him. However, her relationship with Stefan had changed so much that she found herself unable to pretend.

�We�re so in love. How could we ever fight?� Stefan said calmly and wrapped his arm around Renee�s shoulders. He behaved naturally and acted as though such intimacy had always been part of their daily routine.

Any outsider would immediately think that they were deeply in love!

Renee�s cheeks flushed. She followed with a fake smile and said, �Yes. How could we have fought?� JrNovels.com
