Chapter: 947
He then grabbed her arm forcefully, making her look at him in the eye. �Was my kissing not enough to make you swoon? Or do you think my techniques are too hard to learn?� After that, he just couldn�t help but inch closer to her, trying to reach for her lips again. �I promise I�ll be more patient this time��
�Stop fooling around!� Renee turned away and took a deep breath. Her expression was bitter. �It has nothing to do with you, and your techniques are great, as expected of a professional. I just can�t give you enough praise.�
�Then why?�
�I couldn�t get past myself�� Renee closed her eyes as she remembered how she felt just now.
She had to admit that was indeed flustered during Isaac�s lessons.
However, she didn�t dare to say that she was thinking about Stefan the whole time� With that being the case, she really did see Isaac as a substitute for Stefan, and she found it unfair to him.
�We�re both currently single. There�s really nothing wrong even if we end up doing the deed. So I�m curious, what are you so worried about?� Stefan distanced himself and asked calmly.
�I�ll be honest with you. I thought about my ex-husband while we were kissing. I can always somehow find traces of him in you. Sometimes, I�d even use you as his substitute. I�m such a horrible person, and this is just too unfair to you�� Renee finally revealed the truth in her heart.
Talking to Isaac was far different from talking to Stefan, as she didn�t have to keep secrets from him. On the contrary, she couldn�t bring herself to say anything when facing Stefan.
�You thought of your ex-husband?� Stefan raised an eyebrow and teased, "So does that mean you still love your ex-husband? Do you wish to get back together with him?�
�Nope!� Renee�s expression was determined. �Our relationship is over, and we can�t cross that bridge again. We can�t possibly start over.�
�Then do you still love him?� Stefan questioned once more.
Renee fell silent for a little, then shook her head. �All I can say is that I used to love him a lot. I loved him so much that I lost my sense of self. I tried to turn myself into someone he would like� But loving someone way too much is bound to lead to suffering. I don�t want to suffer anymore, I just want to love someone who loves me just as much. If I can�t, then being single sounds pretty great too! I wouldn�t have to worry much!�
The woman�s words put Stefan into deep thought. �Yeah, she�s right. Being single gives you fewer worries for sure.�
As someone who was usually more rational and collected, he knew that he shouldn�t allow himself to fall deep into this pit called love. He shouldn�t allow himself to lose control.
As Renee�s burns were nearly healed, she returned to her own apartment. Her children missed her very much, to the point they didn�t want to let go of her.
�Mommy, you�ve been working so hard lately! You haven�t been home for days. Adie and I feel so bad for you. Here, let me give you a massage�� Abby said as she started massaging Renee�s shoulders and legs.
Although the little one didn�t have much strength, Renee still found it quite relaxing.
�Mommy�s having it so hard right now. Looks like I can�t delay my plan any longer!� Aiden frowned and spoke in a serious tone, looking like a carbon copy of his father.
At the time, Renee lay on the couch, eating some fruit slices while enjoying Abby�s massage services. JrNovels.com
