Chapter: 943
�I offended the boss lady because of you, and no one dared to hire me anymore. The Blue Inn was the only reason I was able to earn a living, but now that you�ve bought my freedom, I can�t even go back there! I can only follow you, so please never abandon me!�
Renee patted the man on the back, comforting him as if he were her lover. �Don�t worry, I bought your contract, so I�d naturally take good care of you.�
�But� won�t your husband get mad at you? I heard that Stefan Hunt from H Group could get extremely jealous at times. Aren�t you worried he might explode at you after finding out you�re taking care of another man?� Stefan asked, hoping to test what she really thought about him.
He was rather curious as to what he meant to the woman right then.
�Who cares?!� Renee felt enraged for some reason, despite her being in a good mood at the start. "Do you lack tact or something? Why would you even mention that jerk out of nowhere? It�s repulsing!�
Stefan�s expression darkened, yet still hid his anger. �What did he do to you to make you hate him so much?''
�He�s a jerk. That�s what he is!" Renee clenched her jaw. �I slept with him for all but one night, and he�s threatening me with it the next day and made me cook skewers for him and his friends� Honestly, how could he?!�
�Is that it?" Stefan found it hilarious.
He sometimes found Renee quite complicated, so much so that it felt like he never really understood her. Yet, at times, he found her as simple- minded as a child, devoid of cunning thoughts behind those crystal eyes.
This is just a position made his heart feel rather conflicted as well.
His rationality told him he should stay away from her, yet he still subconsciously wanted to get closer. That was why he came up with the ridiculous idea of clinging to her using the identity of a pub dancer.
It was as if he no longer felt embarrassed about his actions while being under a mask.
�Of course not!� Renee suddenly felt the urge to rant, so she rolled up her sleeves, getting ready to nitpick on every little horrible thing about Stefan.
�Your arm�"Stefan was sharp enough to notice the burn wound around her arm, which made him. frown deeply.
�I knew it! She was burnt by the charcoal this morning, just like what happened to Seraphina!�
�But� Damn it, how could she have such a high pain tolerance?! How did she not even whine a little when she�s been burnt so badly?!�
�Yeah! I was burned! It hurt so much!� Renee yelped.
She wasn�t used to complaining about her pain, but she felt oddly different with Isaac and started pouting sadly over it.
It was likely that he was now hers. He was basically her therapist at this point, her dumpster for emotions. Armed with the knowledge that he would support her, heal her, and stay by her, come what may, there was no need to put on a tough act in front of him.
�Come here, sit down!� Stefan dragged her to the sofa and forced her into a seat. JrNovels.com
