Chapter: 383
Renee�s nose was near Stefan�s chest, and she could smell his unique peppermint scent. For a moment, she indulged in it. "Mr. Hunt, are you feeling lonely? We divorced not that long ago, but you�ve already moved on to a college student?�
Renee immediately regretted asking him. As his ex-wife, she was in no place to ask him that question.
Stefan, meanwhile, was enjoying dancing with Renee under the spotlight. "How do you want me to answer that?� He asked slowly.
"I don�t really care.� Renee pretended to be indifferent. �The girl looks quite naive, so I just felt sorry for her. If you want to play around, I suggest you try with someone on your level. Don�t hurt her, or she�ll be scarred for life.�
�She is certainly naive, just like you were four years ago�� Stefan murmured, looking down at the woman in his arms. He tightened his grip around her waist and studied her face intently. �So, have you not moved on?�
Renee�s face turned red for some reason, and she avoided Stefan�s gaze. Her mind went blank, and she didn�t know how to answer him.
Fierce pride rose in Stefan and he continued triumphantly, �Your silence tells me that I�m right. You still have feelings for me, don�t you? You can�t move on.�
Renee had nowhere to hide. She made several mistakes while dancing and Stefan�s feet suffered the consequences. She was a coward! Renee was furious at herself, and gathered the courage to speak. After taking a deep breath, she looked up daringly into his eyes.� Mr. Hunt, it seems to me that you�re very self- obsessed. I had never fallen for you to begin with, so how can I move on?�
"You�re acting tough again�� Stefan sighed, then leaned down to murmur in her ear, �You know very well that you�re in love with me.�
Renee�s face turned even redder. She wanted to deny it. but the song suddenly came to an end. Stefan immediately went back to his indifferent self, and let go of Renee. Though they had both been dancing intimately a moment ago, they were now behaving as if they didn�t know each other. They both kept their distance from each other.
Much to Renee�s disappointment, Stefan turned around and looked for Shirley again. Once he found her, walked up to her and asked, �Do you want to have a drink with me?�
Shirley had been distracted when she danced with Julian earlier. Her eyes had only been on Stefan and Renee. Although Julian was also very charming, her feelings for Stefan were stronger.
It had been love at first sight.
Shirley didn�t want things to end between her and Stefan and was hoping he would take things further. Hence, when Stefan asked her that, she felt excitement bubble up in her. She nodded hastily and said,
�Sure, it�s an honor.�
The two of them walked past Renee, not even sparing her a glance.
Renee, meanwhile, felt as if a car had just run her over. Her heart ached and her face crumpled. Stefan Hunt was pure evil!
Julian shrugged nonchalantly, a little upset that his plan didn�t work. �I tried my best.�
Renee and Julian returned to their seats.
Liam was a little worried when he saw Renee�s crestfallen expression. He asked with a frown, �Boss, are you alright? Did that jerk say something mean to you when you danced together earlier? You seem to be in a bad mood.� JrNovels.com
