To her, Elijah was just a worker. He wasn�t a threat to her, so she wasn�t afraid of offending him.

When she became Mrs. Hunt, she would definitely fire him.

Elijah merely smiled but didn�t say a word.

However, Francine scolded her with a cold face. �Don�t talk nonsense. You can�t talk to Mr. Young like that. Don�t blame me for being cruel if I hear you being rude to Mr. Young again.�

Hearing this, Briar immediately kept her mouth shut as she trembled in fear.

It was weird that when Elijah held Stefan, he wasn�t as hostile to him as he was to her. He also didn�t behave like a kid when he was holding Renee earlier. He was perfectly normal.

After they reach Stefan�s room, Elijah slowly lays him down on the bed.

Elijah faintly heard Stefan whisper, �Renee� come back. I order you to come back! No one else can protect you besides me.�

Hearing this, Elijah sighed. �Mr. Hunt, you didn�t love her when she did, but now that she doesn�t love you anymore, you started to fall for her. Why are you making your life so hard?�

Stefan woke up the next day with his head weighing a million pounds.

He looked around and saw Elijah sitting in front of the bed, observing him with a frown.

�Mr. Hunt, you�re finally awake. My mission is done. I can leave now.�

He let out a sigh of relief and seemed excited.

With Stefan completely out of it last night, all he could do was guard him the entire night, fearing Briar, who was yearning for a chance with Stefan, would sneak in and take advantage.

Stefan rubbed his temples and frowned as he tried to recall everything that happened last night.

The only memory he had was playing finger guessing with Renee.

�Did I get drunk last night?�

He resumed his cold demeanor, sounding indifferent. �Based on my skills, there�s no way I lost control,� he stated firmly.

Hearing this, Elijah rolled his eyes secretly.

�Here we go again. Every time Mr. Hunt gets drunk, he will forget everything that happened and he would deny all his actions after sobering up.,� he thought to himself. JrNovels.com
