Stefan sneered, feeling like Briar was crazy and without any self- awareness. "The most pathetic thing

someone can do is overestimate themselves. I know what kind of woman I want, and she's already

mine. Even if Renee never existed, I would never be with you. Not in this life, my next life, or any other

life!" Since young, Stefan had always attracted women because of his good looks and personality, so

he was good at turning women down, but this was the first time he had done it so cruelly. Briar had no

morals, so he felt he didn't need to be polite to her.

"Stefan, aren't you afraid your claim will get shot down in flames?" Briar grinned at him as if she

expected such an answer from him. She had always known that Stefan felt nothing for her, that his

heart was locked without a key. She could never make him open up to her no matter how hard she

tried, and it had nothing to do with Renee. Stefan was right—it was impossible between Stefan and

Briar even if Renee was not around.

But love didn't follow any rules; Tristan had fallen in love with Briar the same way Briar had fallen in

love with Stefan. At the same time, Stefan loved Renee. It was an irresolvable stalemate. After Briar fell

off the cliff and suffered a near-death experience, she had realized the truth.

"I was very silly in the past. I thought it was only a victory if you loved me... but I know better now. It

doesn't matter whether you love me or not-l just need you to be with me. I'll stop trying to win your heart

since I can't do it. Now, I just want your body..." Briar looked Stefan up and down amorously, and her

dead heart started beating again.

It was a fatal attraction.

"What are you trying to say?" Stefan narrowed his eyes, feeling uneasy as he tried to figure out what

she was up to. Briar had caused so much trouble and come up with so many schemes, so Stefan was

a little anxious.

Even if he was full of disgust, he couldn't harm her, and it vexed him greatly.

"Didn't I make myself clear? I've compromised-l won't ask for your heart, I just want your body. I've

been coveting you for such a long time and living anonymously until now, I just want to have some fun

with you," Briar said teasingly, but her implication was clear.

Both Elijah and Tess watched and listened nearby. They felt embarrassed, but didn't dare to say

anything.

"You've clearly lost your mind. Do you have any idea what you're saying?" Stefan frowned, not even

bothering to look at the shameless woman. He asked directly, "Hurry up and tell me the poison you

drugged her with, and I'll do my brother a favor and won't kill you. After that, you can live your life, and

Ren and I will forget about this affair."

"Do you really want to send me off like this?" Briar sneered. "I should be dead, but I survived until now

because there's something I want. I still haven't fulfilled my wish, so I don't care whether I live or not.

Plus, I wouldn't have gone through so much trouble if I only wanted to live."
