Chapter 686
Renee noticed Stefan right away. Her smile immediately disappeared, replaced by a frosty chill.
She said sarcastically, ' Wow, fancy seeing you here, Mr. Hunt. Why aren't you keeping your "bro" company? She
hurt her foot and needs your" brotherly love"."
Stefan frowned and ignored Renee. Instead, he looked at Rubio Pascal and asked in an icy voice, "What did you do
to her?"
Rubio Pascal was a man in his forties who had a shrewd face. He gave Stefan a smile that did not reach his eyes
and said with an ambiguous expression, ’’Miss Everheart and I had a very pleasant time. We spent more than three
hours together, just the two of us, and we've grown very close. As for what happened between us, I think it's Miss
Everheart's decision whether to tell you or not."
"Anyway, for me personally, I'll treat it as a little secret between Miss Everheart and 1.1 will occasionally think back
on it with much fondness."

embarrassed to say it, then it's even more the case for me. Why don't we make a promise with each other? We'll
keep what happened this afternoon a secret. Whoever leaks the secret gets on Santa's naughty list!"
"Hahaha, that's fine with me. It's your decision."
Rubio Pascal gave Stefan a meaningful look. He then hugged Renee affectionately and said, "Okay, that's it for
today. Next time you come, let's have some fun again."
'Then, about the land where the Everheart Residence is...”
"Don't worry, leave it to me. I promise I'll take care of it."
Rubio Pascal waved goodbye to Renee and walked back into the Pascal Manor.
Stefan, Shelley, and the group of armed burly men remained rooted to the spot with confused expressions.
"Ms. Everheart, you scared the hell out of me. I called you earlier, but you didn't answer. I thought that Pascal guy
must have done something bad to you. I was afraid that the police wouldn't be able to handle it, so I called Mr. Hunt
for help!"
Shelley was both excited and relieved. "I was worried that Mr. Hunt wouldn't come, but not only did he come, he
came really quickly and brought a lot of people with him. That means he really cares about you and you're very
important to him!"
Stefan said icily, "I didn't think that far. I was just afraid that the Hunt family would be disgraced because I know
what kind of man Rubio Pascal is."
At first, Renee felt a little grateful towards Stefan, but his words irritated her so much that the gratitude instantly
evaporated.
"Heh, you're funny, Mr. Hunt. Pray tell, what kind of man is Mr. Pascal? And how did I disgrace the Hunt family?"
Stefan's dagger-like eyes looked Renee up and down. He said emotionlessly, “You know what kind of man he is, and
you know very well how you disgraced the Hunt family."
Renee became even angrier. She retorted coldly, "Sorry, I have no idea what kind of man Mr. Pascal is. After all, I
only spent three hours with him, which I don't think is enough to tell a person's character. I feel like he's a pretty
straightforward guy. At least he doesn't pretend to be a good guy like a hypocrite."

Renee laughed with contempt. "I have had nothing to do with you for a long time, let alone the Hunt family. I'm a
free and independent woman, and I can make friends with anyone I want. It's none of your business!"
'You...!"
Renee's stubborn attitude and sharp words angered Stefan, but he had no right to refute her.
That's right, no matter how bad Rubio Pascal's reputation in Beach City was, and no matter how terrible the fate of
the women who approached Rubio Pascal was according to the rumors, Stefan had no right to stop Renee from
getting involved with him.
The two of them stared each other down. The tension in the air was unbelievably strong.
Shelley mustered up the courage to raise her hand and say, "Can I say something?"
Renee nodded and said, You can say whatever you want to say."
"I think, no matter what Mr. Hunt's motive was, it's a fact that he came to save you immediately. Besides, he also
rescued you from that rapist a few days ago. So, I think..."
Shelley paused and took a peek at Renee, then said weakly, "I think you should buy Mr. Hunt dinner to express your
gratitude."
Before Renee could say anything, Stefan already said, "I happen to be hungry right now. I know a place in the city
that serves good steak."
