Chapter 408

By the time Renee returned to the apartment, it was already really late.

Leia was not back yet, which was quite unusual.

"Could the heartless girl have found true love this time?"

While Renee was wondering that, she saw Leia stealthily opening the door and sneaking in. Her fair

face was tinged with a faint blush, displaying a girlish shyness.

*Ahem*

Renee cleared her throat and stopped Leia. She interrogated her like a dorm manager. "Where have

you been? Why are you back so late? Don't lie to me!"

After hesitating for a while, Leia told her, 'Til be honest, I've fallen for this guy hard. Barring any

accident, we'll probably get married at the end of the month. If the time is right, maybe we can even

have a group wedding!"

"Already? Isn't it a bit too impulsive?"

Although Renee was happy for Leia, she still felt a bit uneasy. "You've always said that you would

never get married or have children. Why the sudden change of mind?”

"That's because I haven't met the right person! As long as the person is right, any rule can be broken,

and there's no obstacle too hard to overcome!"

Leia used to be a fangirl. Her biggest hobby was fangirling over celebrity couples. She had no interest

in starting a relationship.

Who would have known that a single taste of relationship would spiral out of control like this?!

Renee did not ask any further. She told Leia, "If you're gonna get married soon, aren't you gonna show

me this guy and let me check him out?"

"Of course!"

Leia smiled sweetly and said, "I already told him that we'll have dinner together tomorrow. You can help

me take a look at him."

"Okay."

Renee nodded.

"What did you do tonight? Did you go to dinner with the top donor?"

Leia eagerly asked Renee.

"Yes, but not exactly."

Renee answered truthfully.

Leia's eyes lit up. She asked, "How was it? Who's the top donor? It's Stefan the Scumbag, isn't it?"

"Yup, it's him."

Renee did not feel any need to conceal it.

"Did your flame rekindle?... Oh no, I can tell with a single look that it did. It's over for my poor brother.

He's getting dumped."

Leia had already come up with a huge drama in her mind.

She had always felt that the relationship between Renee and Stefan would not end so soon. Her

brother should not have stood between them like a fool. Him getting dumped was only a matter of time.

Renee's expression immediately turned serious, "Don't joke about something like that. If the flame

could rekindle, it would have rekindled a long time ago. It wouldn't have remained dead for four years.

We only settled some issues between us."

"That's good. A dead love is like a tumor that has been removed from the body. If you keep the tumor,

it'll only spread and cause you more pain.

Ending it cleanly is good..."

After Leia said that, she could not help but worry, "But there are two children between you. Can you

really end it cleanly?"

The Hunt Residence.

In the last four years while Renee was gone, Old Mr. Hunt's health had deteriorated because he was

worried sick.

Stefan chose to move back to the Hunt Residence to live with Old Mr. Hunt so that it would be more

convenient to take care of the elderly man.

Today, Stefan returned later than usual. He thought the old man must be asleep already so he did not

go to greet him and instead headed straight to the study for an extra shift
