Chapter: 192
Lurch sighed, looking heartbroken. �It can�t be helped. Master Hunt has been strong-willed since young. He respects Old Mr. Hunt and has never defied him. He probably wants to use this to prove his determination to be with that woman��
"Anyway, we�ll be counting on you for the next few days,� Lurch said and gave a look to the man guarding the door.
The guard immediately turned away and looked up at the stars.
Meanwhile, Renee carried the box and slipped into the chamber with ease.
Stefan did not turn around when he heard the movement. He continued kneeling with a firm posture, seemingly unmoved. However, he was seriously injured. Without having a single drop of water and food, his forehead was clammy, and he looked frail.
�Ahem!� Renee did not know how to break the silence, so she cleared her throat awkwardly.
Stefan, however, maintained his firm posture, unmoved. It was as if he had guessed that Renee was coming.
�Get out!�
Stefan�s stony voice echoed in the empty chamber. He seemed particularly hard-hearted. �Outsiders aren�t allowed into the Hunt family�s memorial chamber.�
�You!� Renee was infuriated by his words. Just listen to that. How rude! Was that even acceptable?
She brought him food, water, and medicine out of kindness, only to be treated this way?! How could he be so rude?!
�I didn�t want to come. Lurch said you were dying and begged me to come and save you. Otherwise, I wouldn�t have bothered� How ungrateful!�
�What does my well-being have anything to do with you?�
Stefan was still the same cold and heartless man, repeatedly rejecting others. �Haven�t you gone through so much trouble just to see me in this state?� he growled. �Why are you pretending to be kind?�
�What? What are you talking about?� Renee was confused. She thought Stefan was simply accusing her, shooting her randomly like an out-of-control machine gun.
�You�re still faking it!� Stefan sneered. �You deliberately gave Granpa a pearl as a hint of my child with Briar. Then, you dropped the divorce certificate to let Grandpa know we were divorced.�
�I�� Renee was speechless, unable to explain herself.
How could she have known about how imaginative Old Mr. Hunt could be? Somehow, he associated a pearl as a gift to the child. She kept the divorce certificate carefully, and the last thing she expected was for it to fall out of her hands.
�You�ve hooked up with other men, but you�re still playing the victim and pushing all the blame on me��
Stefan�s gaze turned steelier. �I underestimated you, Renee!� he croaked between parched lips. JrNovels.com
