Chapter 497
’Me?”
Renee furrowed her brows, unable to figure out Julian’s plan. Comment by _
Lunaelle: who is this? Comment by May: Updated.
Renee was just a stranger to Stefan and had nothing to do with the Hunt family.
How could Julian ask her for help? Julian must be overestimating her kindness.
Julian continued with a grave expression. “Six months ago, I stepped down as
Chief R&D Officer at KCL Group and sold some of my shares. KCL Group has
changed ownership now. I heard that the new chairman is also from a technical
background, but is more business-minded than me. He’s going to carry out a

radical reform of the whole group, from all levels of staff, internal management,
and external partners. I’m no longer as influential after stepping down from my
position…”
Renee arched her brow and said nonchalantly, “A business is like a kingdom.
Changes are inevitable, even for a prosperous kingdom. So what exactly are
you trying to convey?”
“I’m a free spirit. I love freedom and don’t want to be involved in these business
disputes. I don’t care about KCL Group’s future, but KCL Group and H Group
have always worked well together because of my relationship with Stefan. The
two groups have been inseparable.”
“Now that Stefan is in trouble, and the new chairman wants to make changes,
I’m worried. The partnership may be affected…”
Julian let out a long sigh. He said worriedly, “Stefan has been holding H Group
together. Now, troubles are everywhere. H Group will sign a strategic
cooperation agreement with KCL Group on the G6 Chip. The cooperation is
significant enough to overturn the entire technology industry. It mustn’t go
wrong, or it’ll be devastating to H Group!”
“So?” Renee said coldly, “What does H Group’s future have to do with me? How
can I even help?”
“If you want, you can!”
Julian wore an unfathomable smile and said calmly, “Stefan’s life is uncertain
now. There are all kinds of rumors out there. H Group has no leader now. More
importantly, people like Jovan are waiting to strike at a time like this. It’s
especially critical to have someone to represent Stefan and complete the deal
with KCL Group in Stefan’s stead…”
Renee finally understood Julian’s intention and laughed. “Are you asking me to
put the business back on an even keel?”
“That’s what I mean.”
“Are you crazy? I’m divorced. How can I represent my ex-husband? Do you find
Beach City too calm? Must you stir up such drama to liven up the city?”
Julian explained with a serious face, “I’m not kidding. Everyone knows that
you’re irreplaceable to Stefan. He even personally starred in Hunt My Everheart
to get you back. As long as you hold a press conference and announce that you
and Stefan are married again, it would make sense for you to act as his
representative to handle the H Group’s matters.”
“That’s ridiculous!” Renee interrupted Julian’s proposal in a fury. “Marriage isn’t
a child’s play. I’m already divorced. Your proposal is simply absurd. I’ll never
agree to it.”
Julian said, “Take it easy. Gaining people’s confidence is just the first step. More
importantly, you have to maintain the KCL Group’s trust. Take this chance to
restructure H Group and remove those who should begone.
Also, find out who’s behind Tristan and Stefan’s murder, and let their souls rest
in peace…”
“Finding the murderer is the police’s responsibility. I can’t help.”
Renee found Julian’s proposal absurd. She stood up and refused to talk to
Julian anymore.
“Don’t you care about Stefan’s death at all? Don’t you want to avenge his
death?”
Julian thought Renee was not such a cold-hearted person. Otherwise, he would
not have gone all the way to approach her for help.
Renee exhaled and wore a cold expression. “Yes. I don’t care whether he’s
dead or alive. You have the wrong person.”
Julian looked at Renee’s fading figure as she walked away. He could not help
but shake his head, feeling sad for Stefan.
‘As soon as a woman stops loving a man, her heart turns colder than stone! Tsk.
Poor Stefan. If only you knew this would happen. Would you regret what you’ve
done?’ Julian thought.
Renee returned home in the night, feeling distressed
