Shadows of Destiny: A Tale of Liberation

Chapter 1226

Chapter 1226

The next morning, Renee got up in bed. She pushed aside the blanket and found that she was wearing pyjamas.

She looked around the room in confusion, but it was empty. 'That's weird... Did something happen last night? Did I

sleepwalk again?"

Eventually, images flooded her mind, but to her confusion, they were mostly of her and Stefan. The scenes were so

passionate that she had no idea if they were real or just her imagination. After all, when she sleepwalked, she could

not differentiate between reality and fantasy.

"Ah, forget it. Even if we did sleep together, it wouldn't be the first time!" She couldn't get an answer even after

thinking about it, so she just decided to regard it as a colourful dream.

It was rather late, so Renee quickly washed up and went out for breakfast. After that, she shamelessly went to

Stefan and Seraphina's room and rang the bell endlessly. 'If Stefan still refuses to tell me about my brother's affairs

with Joanne, there's going to be trouble.'

However, there was no response despite her ringing the bell for a long time.

"That's weird. It's almost ten o'clock, so they should be awake by now. Were they up all night doing..." She let her

imagination run wild, and wondered if they had died from exertion in the bedroom.

A female cleaner soon approached, and Renee turned to her politely. " Madam, hello. Are you going to clean up this

room?"

"Yeah, the guests checked out very early, so I need to clean it up," the cleaner replied and opened the door with a

keycard.

"What?! They checked out?!" Renee gasped in disbelief, and rushed into the room while the cleaner was distracted.

To her shock, it was empty.

Stefan had fooled her again.

'Damn it, that blasted man!' She was furious. To make matters worse, the hospital soon called her and informed her

that Joanne had been transferred to another hospital. When Renee asked the doctor which one, he told her that he

could not reveal its name or location.

"It must be Stefan! He purposely moved Joanne to another place." After the call, Renee was seething with anger,

and felt the urge to hack that man into pieces.

Without any delay, she took the earliest flight home.

At that moment, Stefan was sitting with the executives of H Group, discussing how to reverse the declining stock

markets. Undeniably, the best solution was for him to reconcile with the Night Demon, but it seemed like their

relationship had only gotten worse.

The latest report showed that someone had attacked Carmine Pawnshop out of the blue, making the latter's new

batch of treasure sink into the sea with the ship. Chase, who had been responsible for the transport of the treasure,

was missing too.

Everyone suspected that it was Stefan, the president of H Group, who did it to take revenge on Quinton.
