Chapter 1445

Renee felt her heart skip a beat, and then her phone suddenly started to ring. It was Stefan calling, and after

hesitating briefly, she answered the phone.

"Finally! I thought you were dead!" Stefan bellowed through the phone, seething with anger.

Renee winced and put her phone away from her ear. "Why did you call me? Are we that close?"

"No, we're not close..." Stefan chuckled, then said smugly," We're just friends who slept with each other once.

You're right, I shouldn't be acting like a busybody."

"Clearly, you have nothing else better to do." Blushing, Renee snapped, "Tell me why you called, or I'm going to

hang up."

"Wait!" Stefan blurted out, then quickly asked, "Where are you now? Who are you with? Are you safe?"

"How is that any of your business? All you need to know is that I'm safe. If I wasn't, I wouldn't have the time to

speak to you on the phone, would I?" Renee tried to speak calmly to eliminate Stefan's doubts.

"Really?" Stefan was naturally cautious, so he didn't trust Renee. "No, I won't believe you... unless you have a video

call with me."

"What? No way! We're not even friends, so what right do you have to check up on me?"

"I'm not checking up on you, I'm just worried about you." Stefan sighed, then said urgently, "Just tell me where you

are. Do you need my help?"

"Listen, I'll tell you one last time-l'm at my old friend's house. We have a good relationship, and I have a very good

life. You don't have to worry about me. If you have that much time on your hands... you'd better worry about

yourself. " At first, Renee wanted to end the call, but she soon remembered what Adie had said to her the other

day.

"What do you mean? Do you know something?" Stefan immediately asked, sensing that something was wrong.

"No, I don't, but... I can tell you from experience that one's partner can be the one that hurts them the most.

Master Hunt, I heard that you're a loyal and loving man. You love Miss Seraphina wholeheartedly, but I heard that

she might not be the person you think she is. You'd better be careful." Renee felt that was the best she could do. If

something went wrong with Stefan's brain surgery, it would be a result of his deliberate ignorance, and he would

just reap what he had sown.

"Seraphina?" Frowning, Stefan asked, "When did you meet her?"

"We didn't meet; this is just a reminder. Just forget what I said if you don't want to know." Renee felt like she was

getting too involved, so she said indifferently, "Okay, I'm going to have tea with my friend now. Bye." She quickly

ended the call and sighed deeply, feeling ashamed at how she had reacted to him.
