While fumbling, Stefan vigilantly closed the door.
The only person he trusted in Carmine Pawnshop was Chase.
He did not think that the four-year master-servant relationship was merely acting.
“Mr. Hunt, what would you like to ask me?”
Chase sighed secretly and asked Stefan softly.
“How is Renee? Did that maniac hurt her?”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Hunt. Miss Everheart is fine. Even if my boss hurt himself, he won’t hurt Miss Everheart,” Chase
answered honestly.
“So, they’re siblings?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yes, they’re mixed-gendered twins.”
“No wonder that maniac let me go. It’s unprecedented!”
Stefan slowly clenched his fingers with deep shock.
Although he had long guessed that Renee had an extraordinary relationship with that man, he was still ill at ease
when he confirmed it at the moment. His beliefs were deeply shaken.
It turned out that the rumor was not ungrounded. That year, the Everheart family did gain a pair of twins of mixed
genders. However, rumor had it that the elder son died upon birth, and he turned out to be alive later.
“If that’s the case, why didn’t Renee come and see me? Is she…”
Stefan’s heart skipped a beat because he did not dare to dwell on it anymore.
He vaguely remembered that Renee jumped into the water dungeon to save him. It meant that she might also be
bitten by the venomous snakes.
If she was fine and if she was that man’s sister, she would have freedom in Carmine Pawnshop. Shouldn’t she come
and see him long ago?
It had been such a long time, but she did not come. So, the reason was obvious.
“Don’t worry. Miss Everheart is fine. She’s not at Carmine Pawnshop now.”
“She’s not around?”
“Yes, she left long ago when you were nearing death. She might not even care about whether you’re alive or not!”
Chase shrugged and elaborated lightly, “Miss Everheart is the same as my boss. They’re rational people. They
won’t delay their plans for the sake of romantic relationships. What’s more… there’s one thing which I’m unsure
whether I should tell you honestly or not.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStefan subconsciously clenched his fingers. His heart was filled with unstoppable pain. He asked coldly, “What is it?”
“It wasn’t the boss’ idea to lure you into the water dungeon. It was Miss Everheart’s idea instead. She hates you for
lying to her and betraying her. So, she wanted to go the whole hog and kill you so as not to be affected by you…”
“That’s impossible!”
Stefan’s eyes turned scarlet. He said firmly, “Do you think you can sew discord between us? Renee isn’t that kind of
cruel and wicked woman. It’s very easy if she wants me dead. She didn’t have to spend so much effort, let alone
jump into the water prison to save me!”
“It’s normal, even if you don’t believe me. After all, you guys were once a married couple, and you’ve had children
together. Who will believe that their significant other wants to kill them?”
Chase shook his head and gave Stefan a fatal blow. “But if she cares for you, why would she leave at such an
important moment without any concerns about you? When you’re blind, and at your most helpless, she leaves you
all alone in your enemy’s base, which is full of danger. She didn’t even inquire anything about you.”
“That’s enough. Shut up!”
