The atmosphere in the vehicle suddenly became tense.
“So, that means that person is much more important than Stefan Hunt to you?” Stefan clenched his jaw, questioning angrily.
“Are you kidding?” Renee smacked Stefan lightly, still drunk, then started hugging him even tighter. “Mr. Q, you’re the most important person to me now. Why else would I marry you? Stefan Hunt is nothing to me, I moved on from him four years ago… That jerk was probably jealous of your personality and looks, and that’s why he scarred your face! Don’t worry, I’ll definitely get revenge for you!”
“Really now?” Stefan scoffed. “And how are you going to do that?”
“Simple, he scarred your face, so I’ll scar his…” Renee let out a burp and covered her face, giggling. “I’m going to carve the words ‘I’m an ugly jerk’ into his face! Hahaha, pretty cruel, aren’t I?”
Stefan fell silent.
“Pfft!” Elijah couldn’t hold back his laughter any longer. When he felt a chill in the car, he cleared his throat and said formally, “Ah, I didn’t hear anything, Mr. Hunt, nothing at all…”
“Clearly, you still value your life,” Stefan growled, looking embarrassed. If the woman wasn’t drunk, he would’ve given her a thorough scolding.
Elijah glanced at the man through the rearview mirror, surprised to see how gentle his gaze was when he looked at Renee. He asked softly, “Mr. Hunt, you’ve finally realized who you can’t move on from, right?”
“I’ve always known how I felt deep inside. I just had too much on my plate back then, and I gave up on what was truly important to me. Now that the universe has given me another chance to right my
wrongs, I am never letting go,” Stefan said determinedly as he held Renee’s hand, as if she was the pure embodiment of his happiness.
“Good, good.” Elijah nodded and let out a sigh of relief. As Stefan’s most trusted assistant, he had witnessed the entirety of Stefan and Renee’s love story, complicated and heart-wrenching as it was. Even as an outsider, he was desperately hoping that they could finally understand each other, and achieve their happy ending.
As long as Stefan knew what his heart wanted, Elijah believed that he could definitely win Renee’s heart back. Any woman would wish to be treated with sincerity, after all…
“Right, have you investigated Desrosiers’ whereabouts?” Stefan suddenly asked. Briar had been missing for quite a few days, and hadn’t said anything before departing. He couldn’t help but worry for her safety.
“Nothing yet…” Elijah frowned, then hesitantly said, “You just said that you knew how you felt, and that you wouldn’t let go of this second chance. Why are you mentioning that manipulative witch again? She was the reason you ended up in such a horrible state with Miss Everheart to begin with! Could it be that you-“
“Shut it.” Stefan glared at his assistant. “I know what I’m doing.”
