Shadows of Destiny: A Tale of Liberation

Chapter 814

The person seemed to be making a call, and the phone in Rosie’s hand started chiming at the very same time as

well.

“You must be Stefan Hunt. You were the one who called Miss Everheart, right?” Rosie asked nervously. Her eyes

widened as she looked up at the tall man, then at the ringing phone.

Stefan was wearing a long black coat and frowning down at her. He looked like royalty, extremely elegant and

completely out of reach. He furrowed his brow and asked slowly, “So, you’re Everheart’s friend?”

“Uh yeah, kind of,” Rosie replied unsurely. She knew that Renee hated her ex-husband, so she didn’t really want to

engage with this jerk either. However, the situation was rather urgent, so she looked past his menacing aura and

blurted out, “You’re just in time! Please save Miss Everheart – she’s surrounded by a bunch of perverts!”

“They’re trying to attack her?”

“Yeah! Right there! Just listen to the screams yourself… I can’t even get through because there’s so many people

around!” Rosie was tearing up as she pointed towards the crowd surrounding the ‘arena’. She felt so useless for not

being able to chase those thugs away, and couldn’t bear to imagine what Renee was going through.

Stefan turned to look at where she was pointing, and noticed that it was indeed quite noisy. The crowd would cheer

with excitement every once in a while, and blood-curdling shrieks would follow right after.

To Rosie’s confusion, the man just looked amused, and grabbed a stool and sat down nonchalantly. After that, he

even called a waiter over and ordered a Long Island.

“Mr. Hunt, what are you doing?! How can you possibly be in the mood for a cocktail? Can’t you hear Miss Everheart

getting beaten up? You need to save her!” Rosie urged hurriedly.

“No need, she can deal with this on her own,” Stefan replied calmly, taking a sip from his beverage.

Rosie was enraged by Stefan’s indifference, and refused to play nice any longer. “No wonder Miss Everheart hates

you so much that she’d rather stay single than be with you! You’re nothing but a cold-blooded reptile! You have no

heart!”

“What do you mean?” Stefan was puzzled. He had only ordered a cocktail, so why was he now being called a cold-

blooded animal?

However, he didn’t get mad, and instead asked curiously, “What did Everheart tell you about me?”

“She said that you’re an iceberg! She wasted four years trying to warm your heart, but nothing worked! All you did

was give her frostbite from your cold behavior… For a while, I was wondering if Miss Everheart was exaggerating.

You did put in a lot of effort to get back together with her, which shows that you still have love for her… but she was

actually right! You’re cruel and callous! You know how much danger she is in right now, but you’re not doing

anything! How can you drink at a time like this? Even animals have bigger hearts than you!”

Rosie didn’t seem to be scared of the man at all, and finally scoffed, “Whatever. I shouldn’t wait around till you

decide to save Miss Everheart, I’ll just do it myself!”

The woman gritted her teeth as she smashed a beer bottle and walked over to the crowd with her sharp, newfound

weapon. She was worried that Renee would get pummeled to death if they stalled any longer.

“Sure, good luck.” Stefan smiled softly. He thought to himself, ‘This woman really is Everheart’s friend, huh? She’s

just as hot-tempered as her, and Leia Osborne too. Birds of a feather, I suppose, but it is quite amusing.’

“Jerk!” Rosie yelled at him and spat at the ground. However, just as she turned back towards the crowd, a large

object suddenly flew towards her, landing heavily at her feet.

“Ah!” Rosie was so frightened that she stumbled back.
