Chapter 159
The man stood in an upright position as usual. His stunning face was expressionlessly haughty.
He feigned ignorance of Renee and wanted to enter the elevator.
Renee raised her chin. She wanted to ignore him at first, but the image of him drinking and howling with a group of handsome.
men came to her mind. Reminded of the way he acted when he refused to let her go, she burst out laughing.
Stefan stiffened instantly. His tall figure turned into a freezing iceberg, and he asked, “What are you laughing at?”
Renee forced herself to change her facial expression back to an indifferent one and said, “Because I am in a good mood!”
He looked at her disdainfully. “Hmph, what good thing can happen to you? You are rather optimistic.”
“I am divorced and have escaped hellfire. I am certainly feeling great!”
Renee raised her delicate face slightly and sneered gaily, “I’m not like you, who went drinking and crying late at night. You did not only hire handsome men to soothe your wounded heart. You even shamelessly refused to let go of your ex–wife. Have you no shame to let the whole world watch how you blatantly try to get your wife back?”
Stefan immediately lost his usual cold and arrogant temperament. He clenched his fists and wanted to refute but only to no avail because he found no words. He felt so flustered that he choked.
‘Damn it!‘
That video of his drunken madness was simply a stain on his life. No matter how pridefully he acted, or how suave he was in
front of Renee, he could no longer be able to intimidate her, since his exposed weakness had torn his godlike image.
He spent a fortune to completely get rid of that disgraceful video from the network and even destroyed several media platforms that tried to hype it. However, what good did it bring? He was just deceiving himself. There was no way he could remove the
memories of the netizens.
Now, the whole world knew that he kneeled down and begged Renee not to go. It was so damned embarrassing!
Renee, believing that she would be intact no matter how much she teased him, continued her mockery. “It was so unexpected of you, Stefan, that you loved me so much. Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I, Renee Everheart, am indeed so attractive that I could charm the picky Master Hunt’s soul to the point he cried so much…”
Hah! After living as a dog who always wagged its tail at its owner for four years, it was her turn to become the owner and enjoy being the center of attention. Even though she was fully aware that it was just an act of an intoxicated man, she still felt very
satisfied!
The more she spoke, the more excited she was. She ruffled her hair gracefully and squinted her eyes at the man. “Stefan, tell me honestly. How long have you been secretly in love with me? Have you been indifferent to me all this while to attract my
attention?”
He pressed his lips and stared into her eyes with stony eyes. His aura was so overwhelming that his hostility could be felt even though he did not say a word.
She subconsciously felt intimidated and gulped. She waved her hand and said, “Um, I was just kidding. There is no need to be
so serious, right?”
She was reminded of the thing she had to do. So, she did not want to waste her time with him anymore and prepared to leave.
But he took one step ahead of her and went in.
She was shocked. “Stefan, what are you doing? This is my house. Please get out!”
“You have said that I have a crush on you, so I would naturally not miss such a good opportunity to spend time together with

you,” said Stefan reasonably.
“I told you it was just a joke!”
She was so annoyed. She knew that she should not have provoked him.
This man was like a beehive. She could not get rid of him after just a slight touch. She was indeed hoisted by her own petard.
“I know better than anyone that all men in the world might have a crush on me, but it will never be you, Stefan. I still have this bit of self–knowledge, you know.” She clenched her fist and smiled self–deprecatingly.
