Chapter 415

Stefan looked pained. He had sealed those memories away already, and didn't want to bring them up

anymore. He told himself that he would use the rest of his life to repent for his sins.

However, Renee had returned now, and he just couldn't pretend that she didn't exist in his heart.

"You said that I hated you, and I admit that I did for a while. But the truth is ... I hated myself the most,

since I couldn't manage our relationship well. I idealized everything, and in the end, I was too late. I

couldn't stop this from happening..." Stefan trailed off, unable to continue. He turned away, shaking, as

if he was forcing himself to suppress his emotions.

Renee had rarely seen him be vulnerable like this. He was always cold and conceited, but now... he

looked like a lost child. She had only ever seen him like this one other time - at his brother's funeral.

Her heart was breaking for him, and she couldn't stop herself from wanting to hug him...

Suddenly, a voice inside her mind reminded her, "You'll be unlucky for the rest of your life if you

sympathize with this man... Don't do it!"

In the end, Renee just consoled him with a few dismissive words, "It's already happened, so what can

you do? Just cheer up!"

She couldn't think of anything else to get rid of such deeply rooted pain.

"So... do you need me to do anything for you?" Renee asked Stefan carefully.

The man took a deep breath and finally collected himself, and his expression became indifferent again.

Despite this, his glistening eyes gave away his true feelings. "If you really do feel guilty, have some

compassion towards Briar. She may not be a good person, but she's not evil either. Her life was tough,

to say the least..."

He thought to himself, 'My brother loved her so deeply. If he was still alive now. I'm sure their family

would've been able to live a blissful life. 'I suppose fate is cruel, and as the person my brother left his

will to, I can only ease my guilt by treating Briar right.'

"Understood." Renee nodded.

'Turns out Stefan really does love Briar now - he’s actually willing to stay by her side despite her current

state. Ah, what a touching love story! No wonder he was so adamant on divorcing me back then!' She

mused.

"We're going to visit the child's grave now. If you're not busy, you can come with us," Stefan stated in a

cold voice. He figured that Renee had to be the one to resolve this, or else none of them would be able

to move on, and they'd be trapped in this hell for eternity.

However, he wasn't quite sure if Renee was willing to do it, considering her pride.

"Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you to," the man continued, looking at Renee expectantly.
