�Stefan might as well be a block of wood in matters of the heart. He doesn�t know how to express his feelings at all. Even if he tries to, people often misunderstand what he means. I�ll tell you honestly. Even after all these years, he has never gotten over you, but he�s an arrogant man so he doesn�t want to admit that, so he acts as if he doesn�t care about you at all. In the end, the only one who gets hurt is himself��

Francine now had a painful look on her face. �That fool. Maybe he himself doesn�t realize that he�s long fallen in love with you.�

Renee smiled wryly and said, �What�s the point of saying these things now? He won�t come back to life. Do you want me to die for him?�

�What I�m trying to say is, he�s definitely still alive. The story between you isn�t over yet, so he definitely won�t let himself die��

�So?�

�So he must have left clues for you. You just haven�t noticed yet!�

�Clues?�

Renee frowned as if she had suddenly recalled something

Upon seeing Renee�s reaction, Francine�s eyes brightened. She excitedly pulled Renee�s hand and asked, �Did you think of something? Tell me, quick!�

�I knew my son wouldn�t die so easily. I knew he left clues for you!� Renee shook her head. Her helpless expression seemed sincere. �He didn�t leave me any clues, but if even you, his mother, can�t be sure if he�s dead, then I�m even more uncertain� At least, so far, I�ve only learned about his death from other people.�

�Since you�ve already chosen a grave for him, surely you must know where his corpse is?�

Francine�s bloodshot eyes were sad as she said, �Stefan�s father said he had an accident and had died in the hospital. Apparently, the way he died was horrible. His father was worried that I might not be able to take it if I saw him, so he was cremated overnight. We chose the grave together, but I still don�t believe that he�s dead. I think they must be planning something in secret, so I turned a blind eye and went along with their acting��

�But now, the H Group is in chaos, and I heard lots of rumors slandering my son. The most terrifying thing is that the H Group will be taken away by a useless relative tomorrow. The company is the result of generations of hard work, especially by Stefan. He sacrificed so much for the H Group. If he�s still alive, he wouldn�t just watch as something he values gets taken away.�

At that moment, Jovan slowly walked out of the room and stood in the center of the rotating staircase with his hands in his pockets. He looked down at Renee and Francine like a king.

�Useless relative?�

The man�s lips curled into a mocking sneer, �After all these years, your words are still so sharp, Auntie Francine. They hurt me so.�

�Jovan?�

Francine immediately put away her sadness and put on a cold and proud expression. She yelled, �This is my son�s house. What are you doing here?

You�re an illegitimate son of unknown origin. You�re trash. You don�t deserve to be here. SCRAM!�

Renee was shocked when she heard that. JrNovels.com
