Shadows of Destiny: A Tale of Liberation

Chapter 776

Stefan left after finishing his sentence.

Renee stayed in the garden on her own. She stood under the moonlight and got lost in thought while she gazed at

the field of sunflowers.

Truth be told, Renee did consider doing exactly as he said.

Although Stefan’s words were unpleasant, he was speaking the truth when he said no other man would treat her

children better than their biological father.

Like every other mother, Renee wanted the best for her children.

If she and Stefan got back together, her children would be happier. Perhaps, she could give it a try.

But what about Mr. Q? She promised she would marry him in a week!

“Ahh. This is so annoying!” Renee felt increasingly annoyed. She ruffled her hair and cursed herself for being a

tramp. She was two-timing her fiance.

Feeling conflicted, she returned to the bedroom. She tossed and turned all night long, and she barely slept.

By the time she woke up the next day, it was already noon.

“Crap!”

With warm sunlight shining against her face, she finally woke up and leaped to her feet.

The room was empty. Her children weren’t next to her. They probably woke up long ago.

She put in a casual outfit and walked down the stairs.

“You’re up.” Stefan was in a black sweater and a pair of gray joggers. He sat cross-legged on a couch, flipping

through a magazine.

“Breakfast is ready. There’s a sandwich and some milk on the table. Hurry up and eat,” he said without even

looking up.

Renee stood at the bottom of the stairs. She observed how the rays of sunlight shone against his hair, forming halos

above him. She felt a little touched.

He’s normally very particular about the way he dressed up, and he always seemed leagues above everyone else.

Now that he suddenly showed such a down-to-earth side of himself, Renee found it very refreshing.

Stefan was no longer the unapproachable bigshot in the business realm. Instead, he seemed like a gentle and easy-

going person. He reminded Renee of a male lead in a certain idol drama.

As a vain woman herself, Renee had to admit that she felt attracted to him!

“I asked you to eat. Why are you staring at me like an idiot?” Stefan asked.

Stefan suddenly looked away from the magazine and, without surprise, caught Renee stealing glances at him.

Renee looked frantically away and walked rapidly into the dining room. She picked up a sandwich from the table

and shoved it into her mouth.

It tasted decent. In fact… It was almost as good as Mr. Q’s sandwich.

“Did you make this?” Renee asked from a few feet away. Stefan was still in the living room.

“Of course.” Stefan smiled. He couldn’t conceal the look of joy on his face.

Stefan kept looking at Renee despite the tall, black wine cabinet that separated them.

Even after Renee had entered the kitchen, Stefan never once looked away from her.

The stare made Renee rather uncomfortable. She decided to turn around.

She finally felt comfortable.

“You’re surprisingly good at this. I thought a spoiled young master like you wouldn’t have known how to cook!”
