Chapter 1226
Enter title…
The next morning, Renee got up in bed. She pushed aside the blanket and found that she
was wearing pyjamas. She looked around the room in confusion, but it was empty. ‘That’s
weird… Did something happen last night? Did I sleepwalk again?”
Eventually, images flooded her mind, but to her confusion, they were mostly of her and
Stefan. The scenes were so passionate that she had no idea if they were real or just her
imagination. After all, when she sleepwalked, she could not differentiate between reality and
fantasy.
“Ah, forget it. Even if we did sleep together, it wouldn’t be the first time!” She couldn’t get an
answer even after thinking about it, so she just decided to regard it as a colourful dream.
It was rather late, so Renee quickly washed up and went out for breakfast. After that, she
shamelessly went to Stefan and Seraphina’s room and rang the bell endlessly. ‘If Stefan still
refuses to tell me about my brother’s affairs with Joanne, there’s going to be trouble.’
However, there was no response despite her ringing the bell for a long time.
“That’s weird. It’s almost ten o’clock, so they should be awake by now. Were they up all
night doing…” She let her imagination run wild, and wondered if they had died from exertion
in the bedroom.
A female cleaner soon approached, and Renee turned to her politely. ” Madam, hello. Are
you going to clean up this room?”
“Yeah, the guests checked out very early, so I need to clean it up,” the cleaner replied and
opened the door with a keycard.
“What?! They checked out?!” Renee gasped in disbelief, and rushed into the room while the
cleaner was distracted. To her shock, it was empty.
Stefan had fooled her again.
‘Damn it, that blasted man!’ She was furious. To make matters worse, the hospital soon
called her and informed her that Joanne had been transferred to another hospital. When
Renee asked the doctor which one, he told her that he could not reveal its name or location.
“It must be Stefan! He purposely moved Joanne to another place.” After the call, Renee was
seething with anger, and felt the urge to hack that man into pieces.
Without any delay, she took the earliest flight home.
At that moment, Stefan was sitting with the executives of H Group, discussing how to
reverse the declining stock markets. Undeniably, the best solution was for him to reconcile
with the Night Demon, but it seemed like their relationship had only gotten worse.
The latest report showed that someone had attacked Carmine Pawnshop out of the blue,
making the latter’s new batch of treasure sink into the sea with the ship. Chase, who had
been responsible for the transport of the treasure, was missing too.
Everyone suspected that it was Stefan, the president of H Group, who did it to take revenge
on Quinton
