Chapter 30
Renee’s mind went blank and her body stiffened up. Although she had slept with the man once, this
was the very first time they had kissed.
As she expected, his lips were cold as ice, but they made her bum up intensely.
Renee's clenched fists slowly loosened up as she closed her eyes, allowing herself to get lost in his
sudden embrace...
A few minutes later, a man's voice came from one of the corners, "Alright, we can wrap this up now!"
Soon, the restaurant's lights were once again switched on.
Renee was finally brought back to reality as well. She quickly pushed Stefan off of her with a look of
disgust.
‘What just happened?'
'Was I out of it just now? How could I have kissed my future ex-husband?!' 2
Thinking to herself, she immediately wiped her lips clean with her hands, but this action made Stefan
rather upset
"What are you doing that for? I could tell that you enjoyed it, you know?"
Renee tightened her fists, suppressing the urge to beat the man up while questioning him. "What the
hell is wrong with you, Hunt? What are you trying to do?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStefan put both hands into his pockets with a mischievous grin.
"Nothing really, I was just learning from the best."
His eyes then fell onto the woman's tender pink lips which resembled rose blossoms. After the
passionate kiss they shared, the sight of these lips stirred something deep inside Stefan's heart.
A chubby cameraman approached the table with a wide grin.
"Mr. Hunt, your performance was amazing! It was so romantic, it's even better than most romance
movies!”
‘Those viewers who called you a bastard are now happily giving their blessings for the both of you!"
‘This was such an effective PR plan to deal with our current crisis! The only flaw we've faced is that you
two were practically making out, and for far too long, which delayed our schedule. Some of the viewers
were even wondering if you were faking it."
Stefan seemed dismissive. "Whatever, it was just for show."
Listening to their conversation, Renee started to piece together the puzzle. Stefan had used her to put
on a lovey-dovey show on the live stream.
'So this was his attempt at fixing his reputation, huh?'
‘Hah, how funny. How absolutely hilarious,' Renee thought.
She found Stefan's actions absurd, but herself even more so.
'To think I felt my heart skip a beat! I’m still just as naive as I was before, this is just embarrassing!'
"Mr. Hunt, with this live stream, I'm sure our current issue will be resolved very soon...”
"I'll be honest with you. This plan is way more effective than deleting the posts online, and it’s way more
cost-friendly too," the chubby man exclaimed while wiping the sweat off of his forehead.
He was one of the core members of the PR team within H Group. With this, he was finally able to get a
good night's sleep.
"So that means I've done H Group a big favor, huh?" Renee asked the cameraman with a smile.
"Oh but of course! Thanks to your flawless performance, the netizens were completely hooked on the
live stream!"
"Mrs. Hunt, you were able to portray the right amount of bashfulness too! I was so nervous and excited
that I felt my entire body trembling just now!
'Thank you, thank you," Renee replied, her face now replaced with elegance instead. She then turned
to Stefan with a smirk. "So, Mr. Hunt, do
I get a reward for helping out this time?"
"What do you want?" Stefan retorted. It seemed that he could never keep up with her randomness. 3
"I want..." said Renee with a grin as she approached him slowly. Before he knew it, she slapped him
across the face with as much force as she could muster.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer smile faded as she continued her sentence in a cold, monotonal voice, 'This."
The atmosphere within the restaurant felt extremely tense. None of them dared to move an inch as if a
bomb would explode any second.
‘What in the world just happened?’
'Mrs. Hunt... the kind and gentle second young miss... slapped Stefan Hunt!'
'Oh lord, she actually slapped Stefan Hunt! We're talking about the heir of the biggest family in Beach
City here! Stefan Hunt, the man feared by all!'
Worse, it appeared that Renee did not hold back her slap, as evidenced by the bright red handprint on
Stefan's left cheek.
Everyone expected Stefan to explode on her, knowing how hot-tempered he was.
To their surprise, he remained calm as he licked the blood off the corner of his lips
"What is the meaning of this?" he asked.
Renee shrugged her shoulders calmly. "Nothing, I'm just retrieving my reward for helping H Group out!"
"I was going to ask for a few million, but money can't improve my mood right now. A tight slap now is
worth more than a couple million!"
'Hmph, using me like I'm some tool and playing with my feelings... I'm letting him off easy with just one
slap!’ She thought as she turned to leave.
However, Stefan grabbed her by the wrist and asked, "What makes you think you could leave after
causing this ruckus?"
