Chapter 25

"Mr. Hunt, calm down! Leave Mrs. Hunt alone!”

'You know that domestic abuse is a crime, right? Mrs. Hunt is such a great person! She loves you so

much too! How could you ever bring yourself to hit her!?"

"We’ll quit our jobs if you dare to hit her one more time! And we'll file a lawsuit against you for the

abuse you've put her through!”

These people were employees of H Group, specifically the ones Renee handed her lunchboxes in

secret to. Looks like the few extra snacks Renee gave them finally paid off.

At the time, Stefan and Renee were still in a rather... inconvenient position.

Looking from afar, it seemed that Stefan was forcing himself on Renee, using his tall figure as an

advantage to her feeble body. To an outsider, it was truly an infuriating sight.

Stefan's actions had caused an uproar. Even his most trusted assistant, Elijah, was on Renee's side

this time.

“Mr. Hunt, I have to be real with you here."

"Mrs. Hunt is a great person, you should know that. For the past few years, she's been nothing but a

diligent and responsible wife. And yet you

cheated on her..."

‘To think you’re now refusing to sign the settlement... This is just crossing the line!” Elijah continued as

he scowled at Stefan, without an ounce of worry that he might be sacked for insubordination. 1

‘Wait, could it be that... you're still in love with Mrs. Hunt? Is that why you’re refusing to sign the papers,

Mr. Hunt?”

Hearing this, everyone started nodding along.

'That must be it! Mr. Hunt's cheating was just a stupid mistake on his end, he still loves Mrs. Hunt after

all...” i

"How could his mistress be any better than Mrs. Hunt? He just wanted to spice up their relationship!"

“Mr. Hunt, don't be shy. Just admit that you still love her! If you apologize to Mrs. Hunt sincerely, she'll

surely forgive you!”

"If I were you, I'd get on my knees right now! It might be a little embarrassing, but your ego is nothing

compared to the woman you love!"

Although the employees knew that their statements could cost them their jobs, they were giving their all

in order to save their OTP.

Renee didn't expect things would go this way.

A few minutes later, she snapped back to reality and chimed in as well. "Do you really still love me,

darling? Is that why you're being difficult on purpose? It was all just to make me stay by your side?"

"If you do love me, you can just tell me that! You don't have to hide your feelings at all! Your employees

are right, you know? I'll forgive you if you’re willing to beg for my forgiveness!"

"Renee Everheart!" Stefan glared at the sly woman, his face twisted from sheer anger.

He suddenly realized that he was completely helpless when it came to Renee's antics, despite his

experience within the business field.

"Stop overthinking! How could I possibly love you?!”

Stefan refused to let this madness go on. He retrieved the amended divorce papers from his drawer

under his office desk, and with a quick scribble, he signed his name at the bottom of the paper.

‘You're only doing this just to get my signature anyway! If that's what you want, here!" he said as he

flung the document toward Renee coldly. 1

At the very same time, Renee ended the live stream. With a raised eyebrow, she smiled as she picked

up the papers. 'Thank you so much, Mr. Hunt. If it’s possible, please initiate the ownership transfer as

can.

She admitted to herself that she was indeed hurt by the man’s words, but it didn’t matter, as she had

gotten what she wanted in the end.

With the document in hand, Renee left the H Group headquarters with a satisfied grin. 1

"Mrs. Hunt, wait!" Elijah called out to her from behind.

"What is it?" Renee asked as she turned to look at him.

Whenever Stefan had something to discuss, he would always have Elijah relay the message. Hence,

they were no strangers. In fact, Renee found him to be rather easygoing.

"It’s nothing, actually. I just wanted to apologize to you for what Mr. Hunt did” 1

"And... I’d like to ask why you want Hunts & Co... Don’t you know that the three lawyers working there

are unreliable people? The law firm is basically worthless at this point! You realize you're basically

getting nothing out of this divorce, right?" "Well..." Renee smiled mysteriously. 'You'll understand, soon

enough."
