Chapter: 7
Renee took on his pressuring gaze head-on and listed out her new terms. �I don�t want your money, nor the penthouse. Just hand over your law firm to me.�
�By law firm, you�re referring to Hunts & Co.?� Stefan narrowed his eyes as he juggled his memory.
Being the top of the eight most powerful families in Beach City, the Hunts were involved in all sorts of businesses. A single law firm was not significant enough to occupy Stefan�s memory.
However, he did somewhat remember its existence, as it was in charge of handling all of the Hunts� legal affairs. He merely viewed it as a charity organization, since the employees were earning high salaries without much work to handle.
The firm simply had no economic value to the Hunts.
�This woman decides to turn down the 40 million dollars, and instead asks for such a worthless asset? What is she thinking?�
Suddenly, he started seeing Renee in a new light. Although it had only been a few days, she seemed� like a completely different person.
�Well, that�s my only condition. I�ll send you an amended copy of the documents soon� It�s getting late, so if you�ll excuse me!�
�Oh, and I wish you a fruitful life with your little lover.�
Renee lifted her chin and revealed a satisfied grin as if she had just scored herself a phenomenal business deal. Sadly, her cool demeanor only lasted for a second.
Her head began to spin and she blacked out seconds later.
Renee thought she was about to fall flat on her face.
Just then, a man wrapped his strong arm around her waist, catching her fall. The fresh scent of peppermint filled her senses, entrancing the woman entirely.
�You�re burning hot� Do you have a fever?� Stefan asked her with a hint of concern in his voice.
The urge to protect her sprang up in his mind, accompanied by the following thought.
�She�s so thin and frail, like a feather.�
�This doesn�t concern you!� Renee hissed through her teeth as she regained her balance. She stubbornly tried to free herself from his arms.
After the procedure was done, she intended to walk away elegantly, leaving Stefan in the dust. She wanted to avoid casting the impression that she was using her illness to gain sympathy.
However, no matter how tough she tried to act, her body was simply exhausted. Even after gaining her footing, she staggered backward.
Seeing this, Stefan lifted her bridal style and said, �I�ll get you to the hospital.� JrNovels.com
