Chapter 289

Stefan naturally did not stop the car. He said coldly, "The Everheart Residence has been reduced to

rubble. If you don't go back to the Hunt Villa, where else can you go?”

"Anywhere, as long as it's not the Hunt Villa!"

Renee's attitude was firm. “I can rent or buy a house. The world is big. There's definitely somewhere I

can stay! ”

"That will be unnecessary!"

Stefan's attitude was also very firm. "You still own half the property rights to the Hunt Villa, which

means it's also your home. In a few days, I'll transfer the other half of the property rights to you. After

that, it'll be completely yours. You can then do whatever you want with it. You can live in it or you can

sell it, I don't care."

Since he had said that much, Renee decided not to argue with him any further.

After all, the Hunt Villa was worth over a hundred million dollars. Stefan was just casually giving her a

hundred million dollars. If she kept complaining, it would feel a bit ungrateful.

However, Renee still retorted faintly, "That's not what you said when you drove me away."

"What did you say?"

Stefan asked coldly. It seemed he did not hear her clearly.

Renee quickly shook her head and said, “Nothing. I said the Hunt Villa is very nice and very big. I really

like it."

"That's more like it."

Stefan did not pursue the matter and shifted his attention back to driving.

After Briar Desrosiers left, the Hunt Villa had finally become peaceful again.

What surprised Renee the most was that the garden that used to be filled with roses was now filled with

sunflowers again. They were blooming as brightly as the sunflowers in the Everheart Residence, just

the way Renee liked it.

The servants that used to be mean to Renee all ran forward to greet her when they saw her return.

Some of them even wept with joy.

"Oh, thank god, Mrs. Hunt is back. I knew you would return someday!"

The housekeeper, Lydia, cried excitedly.

Renee sneered and said, "Wow, Lydia, you're almost as eager to welcome me back as you were when

you drove me away! How kind of you!"

Lydia blushed and said, "Please don't make fun of me, Mrs. Hunt. I know that I overstepped my

boundaries back then. I apologize if I hurt your feelings. As long as you're willing to forgive me and let

bygones be bygones, I'll willingly accept any punishment you deem fit!”

"Sure, I'll forgive you. There's no need for any punishment either. But are you really as sincere as you

say? You'll really do anything if I come back?"

Renee gave Lydia a strange smile.

Lydia nodded. "Of course! Of course!"

"Then pack up and leave. Someone else will take your place as housekeeper."

Renee’s amiable expression suddenly turned into one of cold indifference.

"But..."

Lydia gulped. She did not know what to do.

She could never have imagined that the first thing the once meek and kind Renee would do upon

returning to the Hunt family was to deal with her!

"You're unwilling to do that?"

"No, that's not it..."

Lydia had no choice but to hide behind Francine Milford. "The thing is, I'm here to take care of you and

Mr. Hunt under Miss Francine's order. If you make me pack up and leave, it would be a bit disrespectful

towards Miss Francine."

"I see. So you're gonna pressure me using my ex-mother-in-law."

"No, that's not my intention. I'm just saying it like it is..."

Lydia thought, no matter how wild Renee was, she would never dare to go against Francine Milford.

At this moment, Stefan spoke. "From now on, this villa will be the sole property of Miss Everheart. It's

her right to choose the housekeeper. Which means, you may leave now."
