Chapter 242

Stefan remained silent; lips pursed as he focused on the road.
The car lumbered towards a ring road, with the vast blue sea surrounding both sides of the
road. Everything seemed especially bright and cheery.
However, Renee found this quite terrifying, not daring to move a single muscle. She
wondered, āWhat is he doing bringing me to the seaside? Is he still holding a grudge against
me for biting his lips last night? Is he trying to murder me and throw my corpse into the
sea?ā
āHey, Stefan, calm down! Donāt resort to such extremes, okay?ā Renee said, sounding as if
she was trying to manipulate her victim.
āI know I may have been inappropriate to you, but I didnāt mean to! Youāre out here looking
like a whole snack, and you were dressed so sexily!
āYou looked like an incubus, honestly! I just made a mistake that any other woman would
make! So please just forgive me, just this once!
āI promise Iāll never make the same mistake ever again! I wonāt ever bite you even if you did
everything to seduce me!ā
Stefanās handsome face was initially expressionless, but hearing her made him chuckle
lightly. āSo, according to your logic, I can bite you however I wish, as long as I view you as a
snack? And I donāt even have to take responsibility for it?ā
āNo way!ā Renee spoke in a justified tone. āI did it by accident! But if you did it, you would
have been plotting it all along! So, in the face of the law, youād be committing a crime, while
Iād be innocent!ā
Stefan was speechless, realizing just how bizarre this woman was. She was clearly holding
a double standard in this case and was starting a blind argument.
As the two continued with their banter, they soon arrived at the most famous church within
Beach City. It was located in the middle of the ocean, with a blue roof and white walls. With
that, it looked extremely beautiful and romantic from afar, with the sea complementing its
colors.
Normally, the church wasnāt open to the public, so newlyweds who were able to hold their
wedding in such a place would naturally have to be of rich families.
It was rumored that if the couple exchanged rings before sunset, they would receive the
blessing of the sea goddess. Their fates would then be bound forever, and they would be
able to spend the rest of their married lives peacefully.
The luxurious car was pulled into the churchās front parking lot, after which both Stefan and
Renee got out.
āChristopher and Ceciliaās wedding is today, isnāt it? Didnāt he invite you too? Letās go
together then.ā Stefan said, striding forward with his hands in his pockets.
After taking a few steps, he noticed that Renee wasnāt following behind. Instead, she was
staring at the majestic building with a gloomy face.
āWhy arenāt you coming?ā Stefan turned back to ask the woman.
āYou should head in first. Weāre divorced, remember? It would affect our reputations
negatively if we showed up together.ā Renee replied indifferently.
Only now did she realize how far apart she was from Stefan. Their emotional void wasnāt
about to decrease in an instant just because they had spent one peaceful night together.
She had once naively imagined holding her wedding in this church with the man she loved
back then. She wished to exchange rings right before sunset, receiving the blessings of the
sea goddess.
However, despite being the bride, she had absolutely no say in her own wedding, as the
Hunts made all arrangements.
In the end, the wedding was held in a five-star banquet hall. It was indeed very luxurious
and generous of them, but it was too plain. That wasnāt her dream wedding at all.
Many viewed her as a rich little lady who had fallen from grace, an accessory that married
itself into the Hunt family. They thought she was just a soulless puppet, and what she would
have wanted naturally never crossed their minds.
She never wanted to return to that life, to be ignored all over again. Thus, she made sure to
stay clear-minded at all times and to distance herself from Stefan.
āReputation?ā Stefan raised a brow, his expression conflicted. Hethen let out a cold scoff
and said, āFine, do what you want.ā
The church was amazingly decorated, with pink roses lined along both sides of the red
carpet.
The Jacobs family was rather renowned within the city, after all. Despite not being within the
Great Eight, the Great Eight themselves would usually show quite some respect towards
them regardless.
Undoubtedly, many rich and powerful guests were present. These were individuals who
could even steal the spotlight away from famous celebrities.
