Chapter 183
Stefan picked up his phone and dialed Renee’s number with practiced familiarity, only to suddenly
remember that she had blocked him. He became even madder.
“Rachel!”
He angrily summoned his secretary.
The secretary walked cautiously into the office and asked, “What can I do for you, Mr. Hunt?”
“Lend me your phone.”
“M–My phone?”
Although Rachel was confused, she still handed her phone to Stefan respectfully.
Without saying another word, Stefan dialed Renee’s number again.
The phone rang for only three seconds before it was picked up.
“Hello?”
Renee’s lazy voice, with a trace of joy, came from the other end of the phone.
She just swindled hundreds of thousands of dollars from him! Of course she would be happy!
“Sounds like you’re in a good mood.”
Stefan said sarcastically with a stiff face.
Renee immediately recognized Stefan’s voice. She replied, “I’m not feeling too bad!”
“You have such a great business mind, don’t you? You made hundreds of thousands of dollars just like
that. I underestimated

“You flatter me. Thanks to your generosity, I can now renovate my house. You’re welcome to be even
more generous if you
want.”
Stefan: “…”
He never thought the formerly subservient Renee Everheart could become so irritating.
She would be the death of him!
“Since I just gave you a few hundred thousand dollars, shouldn’t you unblock me out of courtesy?”
Stefan resisted the urge to rush over and strangle her. He calmly argued for his rights.
After all, he just spent over a million dollars. He could not let them go to waste.
If it could get him unblocked, the money was worth it.
“Nope.”
Renee refused without hesitation. “The money is a voluntary gift from you. If you want it back, feel free
to file a lawsuit. If you think you can beat me in court, that is.”
“You…!”
Before Stefan could finish talking, the sound of disconnected call came from the other end of the
phone.
Goddammit, Renee actually hung up on him!

It would be too humiliating for him to immediately call her again. Besides, she most likely would not
answer.
After giving it some thought, Stefan decided to try an alternative method – he would do as Xavier say
and use a burner number.
“Rachel, get me a new SIM card immediately.”
He ordered coldly.
Rachel heard the entire conversation between Stefan and Renee. All she could think of right now was:
“What goes around
comes around!”
The proud Mr. Hunt had been humbled.
‘As expected, one should not fall in love that easily. Once you fall in love, it doesn’t matter if you’re a
pure young man or a domineering CEO, you’ll just turn into a simp!‘
The Everheart Residence.
After Renee hung up on Stefan, she felt inexplicably down.
Her former husband was actually acting that humble in order to persuade her to withdraw her charges
against another woman. It made her feel like a failure.
She sacrificed so much and acted dignified and dutiful like a daughter–in–law of a prestigious family
should. Even when she was mistreated, she merely kept quiet in order to not make it difficult for him.
All she got in return was his betrayal.
What made her really mad was, if he was going to cheat on her, at least pick a pick a good woman, like
his first love Cecilia
Smith, who Renee could accept losing to.
But he actually cheated on her with a pretentious bitch like Briar Desrosiers.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNot only was she pretentious, she’s also evil!
Losing to a bitch like that, Renee felt the love she had given for four long years was so not worth it!
Because Renee was in a bad mood, she went to bed early.
In the middle of the night, she suddenly woke up and could not go back to sleep anymore.
She looked out the window at the moon and could not help feeling a bit sad, so she picked up her
phone to listen to some
songs.
When she unlocked her phone, she saw a friend request on WeChat.
The profile picture happened to be a pearl white moon on a vast ocean, which gave off a sense of
loneliness.
The verification message was: “Up for a chat?”
Renee initially wanted to ignore it, but she happened to be a bit bored right now, so she accepted the
request.
She did a quick check of the person’s friend list. It was even cleaner than his profile picture – it was
completely empty. This
was a brand new account.
Renee wondered for a moment if it might be Stefan’s burner.
But she soon ruled out the possibility.
Stefan was the CEO of H Group. Surely he would not do something so childish.
The person did not start a covnersation. Renee’s curiosity was piqued, so she asked, “Do I know you?”
The person’s status became “typing…“.
