Chapter 24
“Please darling, we’ve been married for four years, you know? Even if you did cheat on me… I forgive you, because… my love for you is true… Please… just don’t be so cruel to me…”
“I wasn’t asking for much either, I just wanted the least valuable law firm that you own. You can’t just divorce me and leave me out on the streets to starve, right? I’ll die!”
“I’ll give you my blessing… I’ll leave quietly for your sake! I won’t bother you at all, I just want you to be happy!”
Renee’s acting was immaculate. Tears were flowing down her cheeks and she damsel in distress. Riled up by her performance, the viewers left countless comments as the stream continued.
[What a jerk! Stefan Hunt really is as cruel as they say! How inhumane can he be?!]
[Men like him should rot in hell! She just wanted a law firm, that’s pocket change for him!]
[This bastard and his mistress should burn in hell!] ’
[I’m unfollowing them! Men are all the same! What a waste of good looks!]
Stefan was visibly enraged at this point. He didn’t even have time to figure out how the woman got ahold of the password to their official account, all he wanted was for the stream to end.
“Shut it off!” he ordered harshly.
Naturally, Renee ignored his instruction. She continued pointing the camera at Stefan as she cried. “Darling, I wish you would stop raising your voice at me. Please don’t blame me for this. I have no other choice but to negotiate with you in this way!” 2
“Both my parents have died… I’m alone in this world, and I have no power to go against your family either… the only people I can rely on are my fellow netizens…”
She was implying that she would only stop streaming once he had signed the papers.
“Give me that!” Stefan growled angrily. He was frustrated, as it was the first time someone had ever threatened him this way. Not wanting to prolong this, he immediately tried reaching for Renee’s phone. 2
Renee, however, was able to dodge his advance swiftly.
“What are you doing, darling? Let’s just talk this out, okay? You don’t have to be rough with me! And you have to be careful with your image, we’re live streaming here!”
“So you think I was being rough?” Stefan stepped closer, grabbing both of her wrists with a sly grin. “Let me show you how rough I can get!”
After that, he pulled the woman in, causing their bodies to touch.
The sudden movement caused the phone to slip out of Renee’s hand. With the camera pointing at the ceiling of the office, the viewers were left to their own imagination as to what was occurring between Stefan and Renee.
[What’s happening? What are they doing? Where did they go?]
[Are they really divorcing? Why does it feel like they’re actually flirting with each other?]
[Are we actually allowed to watch this for free?!]
[Oh my god! They’re definitely flirting, aren’t they? Lucky us! We get to see this live!]
Renee did not anticipate Stefan to make this move. She could feel her face burning up. As she struggled to escape his embrace, she growled at him,”
What are you doing, Mr. Hunt?! You know this is a live stream, right?!”
“It’s not like my reputation could get any better at this rate, so I don’t mind making it worse!” Stefan forcefully kept her in his arms, as he whispered into her ears naughtily.
Although they had been married for so long, this was the first time he realized that his boring wife was actually quite precious…
Her body smelled amazing, and she felt so soft in his embrace. He wasn’t prepared to let go anytime soon, given these sensations brought him some sort of reassurance.
On the other hand, Renee’s heart was absolutely calm.
She used to wish for Stefan’s embrace during their marriage to the point that she’d have dreams about it. Yet now, all she wanted was to escape his arms, because she couldn’t allow herself to make the same mistake twice.
‘You don’t mind it being worse, you say?” The woman asked, then started screaming on the top of her lungs.
“Ah! Darling, please don’t hit me! No!” 1
‘Til give up on my demand! I’ll listen to you! Just please don’t hit me!”
“Help! Someone, anyone! He’s going to beat me to death! Please call the police for me!” 1
Stefan froze, all the emotions he felt just now faded away instantly. 1
‘This woman… is ruthless!’
At the same time, a large group of people barged into his office, their expressions vexed…
