Chapter 160
Stefan said nothing.
He strode to the huge floor–to–ceiling windows and looked out at the blue open sea.
This scene was only visible to their two penthouses in the whole neighborhood.
It was such a coincidence. It felt like there was an invisible thread tying him and Renee together.
They might have looked at the same sea for many nights without knowing each other’s thoughts…
“Why did you want to move out?” After a long time, Stefan turned around and asked in a low voice.
Renee was busy opening all the drawers in the living room to look for the quilt when Stefan threw the question at her, and she froze.
“Because I feel like it!”
She replied perfunctorily and added a self–deprecating remark. “The main reason is that I know you don’t like me. If we live next to each other, we will keep bumping into each other. So, I decided to move out to keep out of your sight and not affect your mood.”
He harrumphed. “You are just playing the wise guy when you don’t know anything!”
“Maybe I am. You are always busy and have little time to spend with Miss Desrosiers, so you must want to stay in Hunt Villa. Why will you come here? I’ve indeed done something unnecessary.”
Stefan was standing in the sunlight. His stony face turned slightly cheeky. He gazed at Renee’s face for a long time and said.
smiling. “You are jealous.”
She flushed and denied it immediately. “Don’t flatter yourself. I don’t like you. Why would I be jealous?”
“You are,” said Stefan confidently. When he repeated it, it was a statement, not speculation.
With so many women admiring him, how could he not know if someone had feelings for him?
Suddenly, he felt that he had won for once ever since the video of him going crazy was exposed. Regardless of what led him to act like a clingy man and hold on to Renee, at least now, he was certain that this woman had lingering feelings for him!
The sunlight pierced through the floor–to–ceiling window, silhouetting Stefan, who was standing in front of it. He looked like a tall male idol when he walked toward Renee.
“What do you want?
Seeing the man getting closer and closer to her, blocking all the way out like a high wall, Renee subconsciously took a
defensive stance.
‘He’s not going to be like the overbearing CEO of an idol drama, trying to play the awkward kabedon kiss scene, is he?”
Stefan stood before Renee, sizing her up like an object from top to bottom, then leaned down and reached out for her waist-
“You rascal, I am warning you, don’t try to mess with me!”
She hurriedly clasped her hands over her chest. Her reaction seemed to be a bit exaggerated.
Though it was not a big problem for her to fight against Stefan with her skills, she would rather not do it unless she had to, for
the sake of her babies.
Stefan was speechless. He pointed to her waist in frustration and said, “Your dress is unzipped.”
“Huh?”

She gulped and fumbled with the zipper.
‘Shit, I really forgot to zip it!”
The zipper on the side of her dress was very long. Through the open zipper, everything, whether it was her waist, or something else, could be seen clearly!
No wonder everyone threw sideways glances at her when she came here. She previously thought that it was because she
looked very beautiful in her outfit today. Never did she expect it to be…
‘It’s so damn embarrassing!‘
Renee’s face and neck immediately turned red. She wanted to find a cave and hide in it right now.
Pretending to be calm, she attempted to pull the zip as if nothing happened. But it was even more embarrassing when she realized that she found it hard to pull. She could no longer fit into this once loose–fitting dress!
Stefan watched unsympathetically and said to the blushing Renee, “Do you need help? You seem to be facing a problem.“.
‘Damn! Of course I have a problem when there are two kids in my belly!‘ she thought.
“No!” Renee took a deep breath and replied in annoyance. “The best thing you can do for me is to get out of here right now!”
He raised his brows and responded ambiguously. “I will go. But I want to tell you this. Although I don’t like you, I don’t hate you that much either. You don’t have to act like a smart ass and avoid me.”
“You…” Renee froze in surprise.
She thought that this huge iceberg hated her all along. Otherwise, he would not have always shown her a stern face and rejected her!
But now he was telling her that he actually did not hate her?
“And you’d better eat less.”
Stefan’s eyes fell on Renee’s waist, and he asked in a serious manner, “Your waist has widened a lot. Could it be that you’re
pregnant?”
