Chapter 60
Renee struggled to push him away. “Stefan, are you crazy?!”
‘Stop interrupting when I am enjoying myself, okay?’
“This isn’t appropriate! You shouldn’t watch this!”
He spoke like a father worried for his daughter, as if Renee was a young, innocent girl watching something bad.
Renee was speechless. “I am not a kid, okay? I’ve experienced a lot of things!”
“Really? Tell me, what have you experienced?”
The calamitous rage on his handsome face had subsided, replaced by a trace of playfulness as he calmly returned her
gaze.
She stayed silent as memories of the night she had sex with this man surfaced in her mind, which turned her cheeks red without her realizing it. Her shy reaction amused him, making him even more confident of his speculation that she was not pregnant. In fact, she probably never had an intimate relationship with a man!
Shortly after that, Briar also left the room in embarrassment and hastily attempted to clear her name.
“Are you alright, Miss Everheart? I didn’t expect that Micah would do such a thing. You were in the room for so long. He didn’t harass you, right?”
Her question was obviously a trap. It was hard for people to believe that nothing happened when only a man, especially a lewd one, and a woman were in the room.
Renee chuckled. “Wouldn’t you be very disappointed if I say he didn’t, Miss Desrosiers? After all, the glass of wine you gave me was spiked to the brim, huh?”
Briar paled at Renee’s words, but the former replied innocently, “What do you mean, Miss Everheart? I felt regretful for my actions toward you previously, and I wanted to apologize sincerely by offering you a glass of wine. I really had no idea it would turn out like this. Charlotte brought the wine, so you can ask her what was in it.”
“Is that so? However, I know for a fact that Charlotte is stupid, and she couldn’t have come up with such tricks!”
Briar was such an ungrateful woman for trying to get herself off the hook with just a few words. Renee couldn’t help but feel sorry for Charlotte for a moment.
“I know you hold prejudice against me, Miss Everheart. It’s all my fault for getting pregnant and destroying your relationship with Stefan. I’ll pack my things and leave now…” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Her tears flowed easily like the water from the faucet when she cried so miserably. She was clearly the perpetrator, yet her actions made Renee seem to be the aggressive one. 1
“That’s enough.” Stefan looked at Renee and continued coldly. “This is between you and Charlotte. Don’t drag any unrelated people into it.”
Then, he turned to Briar and ordered in a softer tone, “I’ll take care of this. You should return to your room and rest. Stop crying. It’ll affect the growth of the baby.”
“I am sorry, Stefan. The baby and I have caused you trouble,” Briar said pitifully. Then, she wiped her tears and left the scene without a single blame on her.
Renee clenched her fists, and bitterness welled up in her heart.
‘Huh, does he love her so much that he turns a blind eye and lets her do as she pleases? Is he so concerned about the
baby that he thinks even a little cry will harm it?’
Stefan was unaware, but if she hadn’t been vigilant tonight, the babies in her belly might have died!
Renee was so frustrated with this man that she didn’t want to dwell on him for a moment longer, let alone stay in this hellhole, so she said coldly, “My things are still in my room. Please get them out for me.”
He frowned and said, “Charlotte was out of line this time. I’ll make her apologize.”
‘Huh, did the sun rise from the west?’
The man who never cared about her and let Charlotte trample her as she liked was actually turning his back on his own family for her sake?
Unfortunately for him, she didn’t need his concern anymore.
“It’s not necessary. Just get my things out for me. I am in a hurry.”
Renee went downstairs right after saying that and waited at the door in a reserved manner, acting like she was just a
random visitor.
And in fact, she had gone from being the mistress of this villa to a guest of this household.
