Chapter 1333

"Renee..." Quinton moved his fingers as a tear rolled down his cheek. "I've let you down. You must have suffered a

lot worrying about me."

"Don't say that. I should take care of you since you're my brother. I'm... I'm just glad you're awake!" Renee sobbed

as she laid beside him.

"I know that I was in a coma. It felt like my soul was locked away in some small part of my body, and I wanted to

stay there forever, but I couldn't forget about you. So, I tried my best to escape, and I'm so grateful I did," Quinton

said softly, his voice raw with emotion. He seemed gentler somehow, as if he had lost his sharp edges and ferocity.

"Ah, don’t say such things. You'll live long, and you'll see Adie and Abby grow up and get married and have kids of

their own. You've just been asleep for a long time, you weren't dying!" Renee wiped away her tears and smiled at

Quinton tenderly.

"Alright, I won’t give up so easily, for your sake and the kids'. I have to live a long life, and we can stay together

forever."

"Alright, let's pinky promise. I won't forgive you again if you hurt yourself!"

They hooked their fingers together and cried piteously, creating a touching scene.

Leia remained silent, but tears rolled down her cheeks. She recalled Liam, her brother. She heard from Renee that

Liam had gone to Southeast Aeos to be the son-in-law of a fort master, but she had no idea how he was doing.

Suddenly, Renee's hand brushed against something cold under Quinton's pillow. She pulled it out in confusion, and

was stunned when she saw what it was. It was a luxurious silver ring with an "S" engraved on the inside.

It could only be Stefan's.

"Renee, what's wrong?" Quinton was lying in bed, so he hadn't seen the ring, but he was wondering why Renee had

suddenly gone quiet.

"It's nothing," Renee said absently and held the ring firmly in her hand. "Quinton, you should rest since you just

woke up. We can remove the gauze on your face when you're discharged, and by then, you'll be reborn."

"Hey, what's with that? I'm just glad I survived this." Quinton smiled bitterly, just grateful he was alive at this point.

"Many people want me dead, so I just want to live a secluded life after I settle the feud between Stefan and me. I

don't want to lead such a dangerous life again."

"The feud between you and Stefan..." Renee took a deep breath, her heart pounding in her chest. She had always

hoped that the Everheart and Hunt families could get along well like in the past, but now, it seemed like it was just a

fantasy. Stefan and Quinton held deep grudges against each other, and now there was this ring too... Renee could

not pretend that she had not seen it. 'Renee, stop trying to fool yourself. Wake up!'

"Quinton, rest well. I'll take care of Ren. We'll wait for the day when you make a comeback and bewitch the women

of Beach City," Leia cheekily teased Quinton, then helped Renee out of the ward.
