“It’s not important.”
Stefan did not answer.
–
Some secrets he must carry to the grave for the good of everyone.
“You just have to know that my relationship with her is not like what you think. You don’t have to make her life hell out of
jealousy.”
“Hahaha!”
That made Renee laugh.
She was laughing at the man’s arrogance, as well as his cruelty. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
How could a man say such a shameless thing to his ex–wife?
Briar Desrosiers was obviously the one who had done horrible things, but since the beginning of the conversation, he had been defending Briar and making Renee out to be the bad guy instead!
“You’re really funny, Stefan. You think I’m sending Briar to jail because I love you and I’m jealous that he took you away from
me?”
“Isn’t that the case?”
Stefan asked coldly.
He believed that, although he had little experience in love, he had met a lot of women, so he could tell women’s intentions
towards him.
“No, no, no, it has nothing to do with you. I’m just petty and I always get my revenge. Briar Desrosiers repeatedly provoked me.
so of course I want to teach her a lesson.”
Renee replied honestly.
Renee was neither a saint nor the Virgin Mary. If she was bullied, of course she would retaliate.
Stefan’s gaze became complicated. He said in a low voice, “You weren’t like this before.”
“That’s because I was blind, I was stupid, and I’m a good actor.”
Renee did not care what kind of person Stefan thought she was anymore. She continued, “I’ve had enough of being a daughter- in–law of the Hunt family. I hate pretending to be gentle and dignified and acting like a loving couple with you. I hate your mean mother, I hate your mansion that feels like a prison, and I hate humbling myself to wait for you to come home every night!”
In those cold, dark days, she could not even feel a hint of warmth. It was a period of time she did not want to remember.
“I’ll be honest with you. I’m not a kind person. When the monster in me comes out, I might eat your little lover alive. Rather than wasting your time chatting with me, you should use it to find a good lawyer to try to reduce her sentence!”
Renee’s words were filled with provocation.
She wanted to see how far Stefan would go in order to protect Briar Desrosiers.
Stefan’s face became increasingly colder.
The woman in front of him looked like a little leopard waving her sharp claws. She was something he could not control, and that irritated him.
He frowned and said coldly. “So you’ll definitely send her to prison? Is there no room for negotiation?”
“None whatsoever!”
Renee nodded confidently and snorted. “I’ve already offered you a chance. You only had to kneel down and apologize in public. But, you pushed your luck instead. In that case, I can only show you my true nature – I’m a petty, vicious woman!”
Renee knew all too well how to deal with people like Briar Desrosiers.
If she let Briar off the hook this time, Briar would definitely retaliate even harder next time. Renee was not foolish enough to give Briar that opportunity.
Stefan’s expression turned even darker. His gaze fell on their overlapping shadows. He said coldly, “In that case, you’d better ask your lawyer to figure out how to reduce your nanny’s sentence too. After all, murder is a much heavier crime than burglary!”
