She carried the drunken Stefan and said to Francine, �Miss Francine, I�ll take Stefan to the room now. I believe my engagement to Stefan will be sealed soon after tonight.�

Francine nodded. �Yes. We need to grab hold of the opportunity.�

Although she wasn�t satisfied with Briar, compared to Renee, Briar listened to her more.

She hoped that Briar could make use of tonight so that Renee doesn�t try to come again.

Elijah was getting anxious as he stood by the side. He felt that Stefan was in danger.

He couldn�t figure out how Renee would be willing to give up the man she loved to a woman like Briar.

�Could it be Mrs. Hunt really doesn�t love Mr. Hunt anymore? If that�s the case, Mr. Hunt will be in a lot of trouble!� he thought to himself.

�Stefan, I�ll take you to your room.�

Suddenly, Stefan pushed Briar away and said emotionlessly, �Go away. You�re not her.�

Seeing this, Briar was a little stunned and asked carefully, �Stefan, have you sobered up?�

He didn�t respond, but his body swayed slightly, and he seemed dazed. He was still drunk.

Elijah quickly took the opportunity and held Stefan. �Miss Desrosiers, you don�t understand Mr. Hunt. He doesn�t like it when women touch him, especially when drunk. So, there�s no need to trouble you tonight. I�ll take care of him.�

Briar felt that Elijah was troublesome as he clearly treated her like a fool.

�Hahaha. Stop joking, Mr. Young. You�re telling me that he doesn�t like to be touched by women? Then, why did he hug Miss Everheart so tightly? And how did I even get pregnant?�

�I�ve no idea how you got pregnant, Miss Desrosiers, but as to why Mr. Hunt was hugging Miss Everheart so tightly, isn�t the answer obvious?�

He looked at her indifferently and remarked sarcastically, �It�s because Miss Everheart is the rightful Mrs. Hunt. They were husband and wife for four years, so he�s naturally used to her touch. He, however, dislikes getting touched by a shameless. woman.�

�Mr. Young, what are you implying?�

Briar had lost all patience and revealed her true self. �Who are you calling shameless? Stefan had divorced Miss Everheart. I am the rightful Mrs. Hunt!�

�I didn�t mean you, Miss Desrosiers. But seeing how you�re panicking, you�re definitely guilty.�

Briar clenched her fist and chuckled coldly. �Miss Everheart and Stefan had divorced, yet you�re so protective of her. Could it be that you like her?� JrNovels.com
