Renee was someone who would not give up until she found what she was looking for.
“I’ll do just that. Even if I have to turn this place upside down, I’ll find him and make him give me an explanation.”
She pushed Chase away with a frosty face and walked straight into the Carmine Pawnshop.
A few of the injured guards tried to stop her, but Chase waved them aside.
“But Mr. Chase, Mr. Q explicitly forbids Miss Everheart from entering the Carmine Pawnshop. If you let her in…”
“It’s okay. If I don’t, she’ll never give up.”
Chase stared at Renee’s thin but stubborn figure and sighed. “Sometimes, it’s easier to achieve happiness if you’re
ignorant, especially for a woman. I wish she’ll be kept in the dark forever!”

her hand, but she was familiar with the layout and furnishings inside.
She searched every corner of the pawnshop, even the restricted area, but could find no sign of Mr. Q.
The sky turned dark. Moonlight illuminated the land, making her seem even lonelier.
“Mr. Q, where the hell are you? Come out right now. I won’t bother you. I just want an answer. Come out!”
Renee, like a madwoman, shouted in the vast courtyard, scaring the crows on the withered vines.
“Come out and talk to me, even if it’s just one sentence…”
She squatted on the ground dejectedly, covering her beautiful but sad face with her hands. Her thin shoulders
trembled uncontrollably. She looked fragile and helpless.
“Girl, stop crying…”
A gentle voice came from above he, and someone gently patted her on the back.
Renee took a deep breath and instantly became defensive again. She looked at the stranger coldly.
“It’s you?!”
“You still remember me. I’m honored.”
The woman smiled. Her face under the moonlight was peaceful and gentle.
“Of course I remember you. Your name is Rosie, right? You have excellent acting skills. You almost fooled me…”
Renee quickly looked the woman up and down and found that she was very different from what Renee
remembered of her. “Last time we parted ways, you were confined in the restricted area again. How are you doing
now? Have you gone back to normal?”

Rosie lowered her head and smiled. It was the smile of one who managed to survive a disaster, of one who had
been reborn.
“Yup, all thanks to the Carmine Pawnshop not giving up on me. I’ve returned to normal now and no longer want to
touch those things ever again. I now live alone with my son. Life isn’t always rosy, but at least it’s peaceful.”
“That’s great. You did a great job overcoming that. You’re very strong.”
Renee expressed her admiration from the bottom of her heart.
She was also a mother, so she knew that being a single mother was not easy, especially for an ordinary woman like
Rosie who came from an ordinary background with no strong backing and no outstanding skills.
“It’s not because I’m strong. It’s because I met a good person.”
