When Francine saw Renee�s tracksuit, it instantly reignited her hatred.

That was because the clothes Renee was wearing happened to be left behind by Briar Desrosiers.

�You vicious woman! Tell me honestly, did you kill Briar and my unborn grandchild?�

Francine clenched her fists and demanded to know in a harsh voice.

Although Renee was accused of something she did not do, she was very calm. She looked at Stefan and said, �Didn�t Briar Desrosiers commit suicide? No one knows better than your son what happened to her.�

The mention of Briar Desrosiers� death instantly angered Renee.

Briar Desrosiers was obviously the one in the wrong, but not only did Stefan take her side unconditionally, he even went as far as to fake her death in order to save her� It was an insult to Renee�s IQ.

�Stef, what did she mean by that?�

Francine turned around and asked Stefan.

Stefan did not reply, which was as good as confirming Renee�s accusation.

�See, your son has given you the answer. You don�t have to worry about Briar Desrosiers. How could a person like her commit suicide?"

Renee sneered and spoke sharply.

Although she could already guess that Stefan had secretly hid Briar Desrosiers away, when Stefan confirmed it, she still could not help feeling disappointed.

His unconditional protection of Briar Desrosiers was a merciless trample on her feelings. She was ashamed and felt bad for herself for having loved such a man!

�You two take your time. I have something else to take care of, so I�ll be leaving now.�

Renee did not want to stay any longer. More importantly, she had to go check on Xavier.

After taking two steps, she turned back and told Stefan, �You better hide her well, Mr. Hunt. If I manage to find her, I might make the lie come true. After all, I wouldn�t technically be breaking the law if I make a person who�s already dead disappears.�

Of course, Renee only said that so that Stefan would keep Briar Desrosiers under strict control and not let her come out to do dirty stuff again.

As long as Briar Desrosiers behaved herself, Renee naturally would not make a move either.

Unfortunately, her nonchalant warning actually brought disaster upon herself� JrNovels.com
