Chapter: 653
�Maybe she still sees me as the horrible mistress who destroyed her marriage. Maybe she thinks I deserve to lose my baby and end up this way! She�s probably gone home by now. I mean, she�s no saint, so why would she visit the grave of my child? Let�s not force her if she doesn�t want to�� Stefan fell silent, his expression growing colder.
Briar continued, �And she kept talking about that artificial uterus procedure back in the car, urging us to have more children too! She was just mocking us, wasn�t she? It was like she was trying to add insult to injury! If she�s not genuine in visiting my baby�s grave, I don�t need her here, and my baby doesn�t need her here either! Let�s just go.�
The man clenched his fists tightly, as he had thought the same. He had no idea what Renee was thinking by urging him to have more children when they were on their way to visit a dead baby�s grave.
�She definitely had bad intentions!�
�You�re right, I was too naive. She�s always been a cold-hearted and selfish person; if she really was feeling guilty about her actions, she would�ve come to visit the child�s grave a long time ago. She wouldn�t have just disappeared for four whole years.�
Stefan took a deep breath, telling himself to keep a clear mind and to stop hoping the woman would change. Thus, as dusk approached, he drove out of the forest with Briar in his passenger seat.
Under the dim moonlight, Renee had finally regained consciousness. Her head was spinning, her left leg was fractured, and she was unable to move.
Looking around, Renee finally found her phone nearby, only to realize that it was broken. She couldn�t turn it on at all.
�Agh, that useless Stefan Hunt! I knew he was bad luck!� Renee cursed as she scanned her surroundings. It was pitch black, with no one remotely near.
Renee immediately felt scared. �Is there anyone out there?! Somebody, please help!� She screamed, her voice echoing alongside the caws of crows.
The pain in her head and leg was overwhelming, and she was finding it difficult to even scream for help at this point.
�I won�t die here, right?! That�d be too unfair��
In the old Hunt manor, the family had gathered around the dining table to have a nice dinner together, but the atmosphere felt rather odd for some reason.
Francine was trying to ask Stefan over and over again if he had contacted Renee. She had just found out that Renee, who�d disappeared for four whole years, had returned to Beach City all of a sudden.
The woman felt conflicted when it came to Renee. She couldn�t help but hate Renee�s guts for murdering Briar�s child, and had even hired some people to find the woman so that she could pay for her crimes. However, in those four years of her absence, she watched as her poor son lived in misery� It had been a very long time since he smiled.
She knew that Stefan still loved Renee very much, and that Renee was the only person who could return Stefan�s smile. Hence, as time passed, her resentment faded, as she only wished for her son to follow his heart and find true happiness.
�Stef, there�s no pressure, alright? As your family, we will support all of your decisions no matter what. We should let bygones be bygones� The most important thing now is to live life to the fullest!�Francine said enthusiastically.
�I have my plans.� Stefan continued eating, clearly hoping for this conversation to end.
Everyone noticed how annoyed he was, and decided to keep their mouths shut, focusing on their meals as well.
Suddenly, Francine remembered something and said, �Stef, have you been visiting that cemetery a lot recently? I already told you how off-putting that place is � you should go less often. A few days ago, I saw on the news that a few influencers went adventuring there, and all of them died because they fell off a cliff! You-� JrNovels.com
