Married a Secret Billionaire by Breaking Wave

Renee even told everyone about her attempted suicide.

"I swallowed sleeping pills because of this man, and I almost lost my life! But now he's leaving me just like that. I

really don't know what I did wrong..."

Renee sobbed uncontrollably, leaving Toph standing there, utterly bewildered and unsure of what to do.

Suddenly, someone forcefully dragged Toph away. He was stunned when he realized the person who had pulled him

out was Lena.

"Stop this nonsense, Renee!" Lena glared at her. "Do you only find happiness in destroying him?"

Renee was taken aback, her eyes turning sinister.

Lena stepped forward to stand in front of Toph. She had coincidentally passed the cafe close to the Thompson

Group on her way to buy coffee. She had never expected to stumble upon this confrontation.

"Renee, tell us how he treated you," Lena said earnestly. "Speak honestly with your conscience. You were ready to

betray the Thompson Group for your own selfish desires, and now you're threatening him. I used to feel guilty

about you, but now, I find it hard to sympathize."

"Lena!" Renee seethed. "What are you doing here? Who do you think you are to say that? Don't forget that you

were responsible for my mom's death!"

"She brought it upon herself. It had nothing to do with me!"

"You..." Renee's anger boiled over. She snatched a glass from the table and hurled it at Lena.

Quick on her feet, Lena pushed Toph away, narrowly avoiding the glass as it shattered against the wall with a jarring

noise.

Renee then grabbed a shard from the floor and attempted to stab Lena.

The onlookers gasped and began to disperse, some mentioning their intention to call the police.

In the midst of the chaos, Lena took a step back and accidentally bumped into someone, who, in turn, steadied her

and grabbed Renee's wrist.

Renee was taken aback, her face reddening with embarrassment. "Uncle..."

Nicholas scolded her sharply, "Have you lost your mind?!"

He wrested the shard from her hand and pulled her aside. "What were you thinking?"

Renee glanced at the three of them with a sinister smile. "Uncle, you sure seem to be taking her side!

Ha! Everyone's protecting her, even you!"

Nicholas' expression grew grimmer. "Renee, you betrayed the company, and now you're attempting to harm Lena

and Toph! Shouldn't I stand up for them if not for you?"

Renee revealed an enigmatic smile, her eyes filled with sarcasm. "Uncle, don't you think you're getting a bit too

close?"

"What are you implying?" Nicholas clenched his fists, his forehead veins pulsing with anger.

Back in his days as a gangster, there was a rule against harming women, one that he had thought he'd uphold for

the rest of his life.

As he had grown older and faced the loss of his child, he had come to value life more and treasure the people

around him. However, he felt an overwhelming urge to break that rule at that moment.
