Chapter: 779
Renee was speechless. Who in their right mind would say that the rumor was partially true? It was clearly a hundred percent false!
Jovan sensed Renee�s anger, and explained patiently, �As the man in the rumor, it�s true that I used to have a one-sided crush on you. It�s also true that I want to make you mine again� So, strictly speaking, it isn�t a rumor, but my way of announcing my intentions to the world!�
�Shut up!� Renee was fighting the urge to pour her coffee on him. Of all the men she�d met, Jovan was the most thick-skinned!
�I don�t care if you spread the rumors or not, but I�m sure you had a hand in those nasty comments. I suggest you don�t push it. Don�t think you can bully someone just because they�re gone. I�m his ex-wife, and I�m still alive. By insulting him, you�re also insulting me. I won�t let you off the hook!� Renee said threateningly.
After speaking, she turned around to leave, not even glancing at the coffee or flowers. She�d already. issued Jovan the warning she wanted to. If he dared to do anything inappropriate, she wouldn�t hold back!
Jovan smiled coldly as he watched her leave. �Do you really love him that much? What�s so great about him? He clearly hurt you, but you still miss him. Why are you still protecting him even when he�s dead?�
Renee stopped walking, but she didn�t answer Jovan.
�Was it because he was handsome, or was it because he was immensely wealthy? Or was it because he was H Group�s CEO?� Jovan couldn�t figure it out no matter how hard he tried. He slowly got up and approached Renee. �Turn around and take a good look. I�m just as handsome as him, and I have money you can spend as you like. In fact, I�ll be H Group�s CEO in a week. I�m much better than Stefan, and I love you more, so why do you keep pushing me away?�
Jovan looked at Renee�s slim figure, and recalled how she used to sing so passionately on stage. The memories of her under the spotlight stirred up feelings in him that he�d been suppressing for years. He just couldn�t take it
�Renee, I don�t care if you want money, fame, or even H Group. I can give you all of it� All you need to do it turn around and look at me!� Jovan begged, his eyes glistening with unshed tears. He reached out and pulled Renee to him.
The outcome was rather predictable.
Renee grabbed him by the shoulders and flung him to the ground forcefully. He landed on the ground heavily, and as he gasped for air, Renee placed one high-heeled foot on his chest.
It was like she was looking down at him from miles above.
�Jovan, you�re an idiot. Do you think I fell in love with Stefan for his looks or status?� Renee looked at Jovan in disgust. �I loved him because of his kindness, integrity, and principles, which are things you�ll never have. Even if he�s dead, you won�t ever be able to surpass him!�
�Haha! Kindness? Integrity? Principles?� Jovan laughed as if he�d just heard the funniest joke in the world. �I can only say that Stefan is a great actor. So many years have passed, and you still can�t see through him. He�s nothing but a cold-blooded snake. He even hurt his own brother to claim the position as H Group�s CEO! Don�t you think his death is God�s way of punishing him?�
�What are you saying? Are you making things up again?� Renee hissed, stepping down on Jovan until he wheezed. �What did you mean when you said he hurt his own brother?�
Based on what Renee knew, Stefan loved his brother, Tristan, dearly. Four years ago, Tristan died in an accident, and Renee could still remember how devastated Stefan was when it happened. Jovan was clearly lying!
�I knew you wouldn�t believe me. If you had access to the files of the shooting back then, you�d know the truth.� Jovan�s chest hurt from being stepped on, but he still smiled wickedly. �The person you slept Next was a scheming demon. Tsk, tsk� Just the thought of it makes me laugh!�
�Shut up!� Renee kicked him twice, still refusing to believe him.
�H Group will be holding an inauguration ceremony for its new CEO next week. Unfortunately, Stefan won�t be there to see it. He�s worked so hard every step of the way, but I�ll be the one benefiting from all his hard work. So what if he�s unable to rest in peace? He can�t do anything to me anymore,� Jovan said casually.
