Chapter 342
The computer screen glowed with a white light in the dark room.
Stefan replayed the surveillance footage from Redwood Mansion over and over again. He wanted to
see if the tragedy happened because of Renee's arrogance, as Briar claimed.
Stefan tapped the forward and backward buttons again and again. He repeatedly watched how Renee
humiliated and pushed Briar. He watched how indifferent Renee was as she watched Briar lie in a pool
of blood.
Stefan's eyes were glued to the screen. His face was tense with anger. At last, he hissed a low curse of
disappointment in the silent darkness. "Damn it!"
Stefan never thought of Renee as someone evil. She was just a willful woman with a strong sense of
self. However, this video really hit him hard. He never knew she could be so vicious and hurt an unborn

As Stefan struggled to restrain himself from losing control, he took out his phone and called Elijah.
"Bring Renee to Sutton at once," Stefan ordered coldly, "She must apologize to Briar and explain
herself to my family and me!"
Elijah could feel Stefan's raging anger on the other end of the line.
However, he could only report truthfully. "Mr. Hunt, it's too late... Mrs. Hunt ... Miss Everheart has left."
"She left?"
Stefan's eyes turned cold. "Where did she go? Where can she go?"
"I'm not sure about that."
Elijah said calmly, "She met me about a week ago to bid her farewell. She said she was leaving and
might never return to Beach City again. She told me to say goodbye to everyone in H Group and
prepared a gift for them. She left you a message..."
Stefan's heart rumbled with a sea of emotions when he heard this. 'Damn it! Did she run away from
guilt? How could she run away without saying anything?'
Even so, Stefan vaguely remembered that Renee had previously mentioned that she would soon leave
Beach City. He thought she was joking at that time, but he never thought... She had been planning for
this since then!
"What did she say?" Stefan asked, gripping the phone tightly.
"She said she's sorry. She hopes her grudges and feuds with you will end here. She doesn't want to
meet you ever again!"
Elijah sighed sadly and lamented, "Alas, what a pity. Many of the H Group employees have bet that
you'll reconcile with her. Now everyone's going to lose their bet..."
"Judging by Miss Everheart's tone, she seems distraught. She didn't want to leave you but had no
choice."

Stefan's emotions were suddenly in turmoil. He couldn't tell if it was more of anger or fear. However, he
knew he would never let Renee leave.
Absolutely not!
"She has escaped. In that case, send someone to investigate and bring her to me!"
Stefan held his forehead in annoyance and coldness in his eyes. For the first time, he felt that
everything was beyond his control.
The moon was bright outside. The floor-to-ceiling window reflected Stefan's tall figure outside. He
looked like a beast waiting to strike in the darkness, dangerous but full of charm.
“I did, but I couldn't catch her."
Elijah took a breath and said carefully, "I knew you wouldn't want to let go of Miss Everheart. As soon
as you broke up with her, I had all the borders in Beach City closed. I wanted to stop her, but guess
what... Miss Everheart simply vanished into thin air. There's no news about her whereabouts at all."
"Are you kidding me?"
