Chapter: 35
Suddenly, the atmosphere became extremely cold, as if they had teleported to the North Pole. Stefan pressed his lips together, clearly displeased.
Renee initially wanted to respond to the accusation, but she figured that it was a convenient reason to convince Stefan to sign the papers anyway. Hence, she kept quiet, pretending as if she was guilty of such a thing.
Briar took a cautious gulp and continued. �Since you don�t have a relationship to begin with. Isn�t it better to let each other go, so that you two can pursue the love you both deserve?�
�Exactly!� Renee agreed.
Although it hurt to hear Briar say that, this was the truth, and she simply couldn�t bring herself to disagree. Stefan didn�t love her, not in the slightest, which was why she didn�t understand why he was being so difficult.
�Is he trying to toy with me now?�
�Leave for now,� Stefan said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Briar turned to Renee with an almost unnoticeable smirk on her face. �Yeah, you should leave for now, Miss Everheart. You know how Stefan is, I�ll convince him for you, okay?�
To their surprise, Stefan spoke up, �Briar, I�m asking you to leave.�
�Oh�� Briar stammered as her face turned bright red.
�Have a good talk then, I�ll be off now.�
Stefan and Renee were now the only ones left in the large room.
The man rose from his seat and made his way toward Renee slowly and steadily.
Renee was alarmed by his actions.
�What are you doing?� she asked.
Stefan trapped her in between him and his desk, growling. �So tell me. Are you really in such a hurry to have me sign these papers because you have someone new?�
Despite being married for four years, they rarely stood this close to each other. The air between them abruptly rose in temperature,
Renee�s face was bright red as she tried her best to regulate her breathing.� Yeah, so I hope you can give us your blessing, Mr. Hunt. I�ve given you my blessing after all.�
Stefan�s eyes darkened, huffing coldly. �Who is it? Is it Geronimo Osborne�s youngest son? If I remember correctly, that guy�s three years younger than you. You know that, right?�
His words alone were enough to upset Renee. �What? Is he implying that I�m too old? Then why can other men date girls who are decades younger than them, but women can�t date someone just a couple of years younger?� JrNovels.com
