Chapter: 53

�Damn it, Renee Everheart! Wake up! Hasn�t he hurt you enough? Why are you letting him affect you again?�

She was still able to get some sleep, but her slumber was soon interrupted by her phone ringing early in the morning.

�Ren, are you alright? Did that jerk take advantage of you? Do we need to call the cops on him?� Leia�s panicked voice sounded over the line.

�What? Why are we calling the cops?� Renee was confused and drowsy since she had just woken. up.

�Did you not watch the news? They caught everything on camera!� Leia stomped her foot angrily as she continued questioning the woman. �Don�t tell me you slept with him! You didn�t, right?�

�With who now?� Renee couldn�t understand a single thing Leia was saying. She didn�t really take Leia�s screaming seriously, since she had always been quite dramatic.

�With Stefan Hunt!� Leia screeched. �Girl, if you really slept with him, I�m going to be so disappointed in you I know I used to support the two of you, but that cretin crossed the line! Didn�t you say you wanted to �divorce him? How could you sleep with him?!�

Leia was only angry out of concern for her best friend. She didn�t want Renee to get hurt again.

�Who said I did that?� Renee felt awkward, realizing Leia must�ve watched the livestream from last night.� It was all just for show. Sure, we might have kissed, but I also got to slap him as compensation.�

Renee didn�t find the kiss much of a sacrifice, as it was great being able to slap Stefan across the face.� Damn, that felt so satisfying!�

�Oh, so you slapped him� Nice one, Ren!� Leia exclaimed, then turned serious again. �But that�s still not a good enough reason to sleep with him! Be honest with me though, did you really not sleep with him last. night? You were seen heading home together� Wait, is he next to you right now?!�

�Ew, Leia, don�t be ridiculous!� Renee scoffed, but she didn�t remember heading home with Stefan at all� That�s why she was speechless when she saw the pictures published in the article that Leia sent.

The pictures made it seem like both of them had returned to Sunup Residence. Although they weren�t exactly heading in together, it looked like Stefan had reached the place no more than ten minutes after her.

Sunup Residence was where she was currently staying. It had only two units, and Liam had personally chosen the location for her. The woman had never revealed her address to anyone else, as she had always cherished her privacy.

Thus, there was only one possibility: Stefan was stalking her.

�That jerk!� Renee felt chills run down her spine.

After ending the call with Leia, she immediately dialed Stefan�s number to confront him.

�Why are you calling?� Stefan�s husky voice sounded rather surprised.

However, Renee wasn�t in any mood to speak calmly, and immediately started to yell. �Stefan Hunt, how disgusting can you get? Do you really have that much time on your hands? How are you any different from a perverted predator?! You know, I absolutely hate it when someone plays mind games with me! We�re divorcing soon, so stop pestering me! If you keep this up, I�ll have no choice but to call the cops!�

Stefan frowned, responding coldly, �What on Earth are you talking about?� JrNovels.com
