Chapter: 6
This was the last push that Renee needed to move on completely. The tinge of sadness in her heart had completely vanished.
�So this means you were cheating on me, right?�
Before Stefan could respond, Briar hurriedly placed herself between them. Teary-eyed, she said, �Miss Everheart, it�s all my fault! If it makes you feel better, you can punish me however you want��
�Does this woman think this is some soap opera? She�d make a great actress, honestly.�
�Really now?� Renee raised her hand up high as if she was about to deliver a slap.
As soon as she realized what was going to happen, Briar squealed and darted behind Stefan.
�Didn�t you say I can punish you however I want? Why are you hiding?� Renee put up a fake smile as she ran her fingers through her hair, brushing them over her ear.
�Don�t be so dramatic, I�m no brute. I�m not going to beat you up like they normally do in the movies.�
�If you are truly in love with each other, I�d be more than happy to walk away from this relationship!�
�Wh� What?�
Briar was left dumbfounded by her words. She initially prepared to play the victim, but it turned out she didn�t have to play that card at all.
�Looks like the rumors were true, Hunt and Everheart really were just in a contractual marriage. Why else would she be so kind to her husband�s mistress?�
Renee continued speaking. �Since you cheated on me, it�s only fair that we make a few adjustments to our settlement.�
Hearing that Renee wanted a change in her compensation, Briar was so agitated that she dropped her facade.
�Stefan already said he�d give you 40 million dollars, along with a whole penthouse! He�s being generous enough as is! Besides, the Hunt household put in a lot of effort to clean up the mess your family made. How shameless of you��
Renee nearly burst out laughing when she saw Briar break character.
�Aww, we�re not even legally divorced yet, and little Miss Mistress already has a say in his finances already? Are you scared that your man would lose all his money to this divorce? Who�s actually the greedy one here, hmm?�
Upon hearing the response, all color drained from Briar�s face.
�T-that�s not what I meant��
Stefan remained calm and collected throughout the interaction. Staring at Renee with an intimidating aura, he uttered �Continue.� JrNovels.com
