Chapter: 998

Renee once again discovered something they had in common, which was their passion for LEGO. She stared at the LEGO spaceship in the glass cabinet in shock. It was over a meter wide and was made up of 9999 pieces of various sizes. Unless someone was really passionate about LEGO, they would not have the patience to complete it.

Renee loved that spaceship model too. She had always wanted to attempt to construct it, but she could never find the time. Moreover, the spaceship was a limited edition model, with only 99 sets available worldwide. She missed the timing and was still eagerly waiting for the second release so that she could buy a set!

Now that her �dream spaceship� had appeared before her, she wanted to touch it. She could not help herself.

She put down her phone and was about to open the glass cabinet when suddenly, her keen ears detected the sound of footsteps coming from the door, accompanied by the sound of people talking.

She instantly got nervous. Was Stefan coming to the Hunt Residence today? No way her luck would be that bad, right?

She did not have much time to react. She looked around in panic and could only slip under the bed.

�You brat, you�re finally willing to come back. I heard you�ve been living the good life lately, getting very close to that lass from the Murphy family. Old man Murphy has come to me several times to drop hints. What are you planning to do?�

Grandpa Timothy asked Stefan sternly. He walked slowly, supporting himself with his cane. Although he was limping, he exuded a powerful aura.

�What was he hinting at?�

Stefan took off his suit jacket and hung it on a solid wooden coat rack. His voice was nonchalant.


After all, he got scolded by the old man every time he came here. Sometimes, he would even get beaten. He had long grown immune to the old man�s scolding. It went in one ear and out the other.

�You damn brat, stop feigning ignorance! What do you think he was hinting at?�

Grandpa Timothy glared at his precious little grandson and cut straight to the chase. �He asked me, what�s going on between you and his precious granddaughter? Why have you two grown so close? I heard Seraphina has even moved in with you. That manor belongs to you and Ren. How could you let another woman stay there? What are you young people doing?�

�She came to my house for a barbecue the other day and accidentally burned her foot. She had a hard time walking, so I let her stay at the manor for a few days. You know very well what our relationship is. We�re sworn brothers.�

Stefan explained to Grandpa Timothy.

Although Stefan was cold and unfriendly, he always treated his elders with respect and patience, especially his grandfather who doted on him ever since he was a kid.

�Brothers my foot! You�re a man and she�s a woman. If you live together for a prolonged period of time, even if you�re innocent, people would talk. That�s why Old Man Murphy is so anxious. He�s asking me for an explanation every day.�

Grandpa Timothy was anxious too. Years had gone by, but his grandson would not reunite with Renee nor start a new relationship. Did he want to remain single his whole life? Then the Hunt family line would end with him!

�I don�t have any other explanation except that we�re brothers. If we had feelings for each other, we would have gotten together a long time ago. I believe Seraphina has no special feelings for me either, so stop speculating.�

Stefan spoke calmly. He was a bit tired, so he wanted to take a shower and get a good night�s sleep. JrNovels.com
