Chapter: 189
�Silly girl. What are you thinking? Why are you still defending this brat?�
Old Mr. Hunt said with distress, �I know you loved him so much. How could you be the one to initiate the divorce? He must have been bewitched by the evil woman and forcefully divorced you. Don�t be afraid! I�ll back you up!�
�Grandpa, I�m sorry to disappoint you. Although Stefen and I were married, we had no feelings for each other. We divorced to pursue our happiness.�
Renee silently clenched her fingers, trying to stay sensible and maintain a sober look. �We both have someone else now. Being tied will only do us harm, so please give us your blessings.�
�What�� Old Mr. Hunt was flabbergasted to discover that Renee was the one who initiated the divorce.
He had always believed that this silly girl was deeply in love with his grandson. How did her feelings change so suddenly? It was simply too bizarre!
�Fine, forget it. This brat has been cold and unloving since young. He only cares about his work. Now that he has cheated, he probably can�t give you happiness. It�s good that the divorce happened.�
�However, you remain my good granddaughter despite being divorced. Come and spend time with me whenever you�re free. If you need any help, just ask!�
Old Mr. Hunt held Renee�s hand with a face full of kindness. However, it immediately turned grim as he turned to face Stefan. �As for you, kneel in the family�s memorial chamber for three days and three nights and reflect on yourself!�
�I understand!� Stefan lowered his head and accepted the punishment willingly. Even so, his mood suddenly turned sour for some reason.
The Hunt family memorial chamber housed the altars of the Hunt family�s ancestors. Kneeling in the memorial chamber was considered the most severe punishment in the family.
Stefan remained silent the entire time. He knelt in front of all the ancestral tablets on the cold hard ground with his back covered with whip marks.
�Send someone here to watch him. I�ll see how long he�s going to stay without food and water for three days!� Old Mr. Hunt told Lurch sternly.
Lurch was worried about Stefan�s bloody back. �Master, he is seriously injured from the whipping,� he boldly pleaded. �He won�t get through three days kneeling without food and water!�
Old Mr. Hunt was relentless in his pursuit. �He agreed that he should receive punishment for this mistake,� he ruthlessly spat without looking at Stefan.
�B�but Mrs. Hunt said she was the one who initiated the divorce. She�s in love with someone else now. How is this considered his fault?�
�I don�t care!� Old Mr. Hunt�s stony demeanor remained, though it clearly demonstrated his double standards. �Ren�s feelings must have changed because of his actions. He must have hurt her. He should reflect.�
�He cheated on his wife and knocked up someone else. That in itself is a terrible mistake!�
Lurch understood Old Mr. Hunt�s temper well enough and knew this wasn�t something he�d tolerate. If Stefan�s parents were alerted, things would only become worse.
Lurch thought about it and decided that the former Mrs. Hunt was the only one who could save Stefan. JrNovels.com
