“I don’t. I don’t care even if the Hunt family goes bankrupt.”
Stefan had long grown tired of all this. He had grown tired of the lies and deceit in the business world and the
hypocrisy and greasiness of businessmen.
The fame and fortune that seemingly everyone in the world coveted could interest him no more. He did not want to
stay in this field for a minute longer than necessary.
“I’m going outside for some fresh air. Please excuse me.”
Stefan nodded slightly, put down the champagne glass in his hand, and escaped from the crowd without looking
back.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOn the second floor of the Santa Fe Hotel, there was a large terrace that contained lush tropical plants. It was also
adorned with tiny lights that flickered like little stars.
This spot was quiet and secluded. Sometimes, one could even find birds and butterflies here. It was like a secret
realm hidden in the bustling city. Few people knew about this place.
Stefan discovered it by chance. After walking through layers of trees and flowers, he saw a beautiful and
enchanting figure leaning against the wooden railing of the terrace.
The woman was wearing a red gown that was tight in the upper body and loose in the lower body. The design of the
gown meant that her back was completely exposed. Her beautiful back was as fair and delicate as snow. Stefan
could hardly take his eyes off it.
A gentle breeze blew over her rose-colored gown and her waterfall-like hair. The sight was beyond enchanting…
“Renee?”
Stefan clenched his fingers and called out the woman’s name.
The woman turned back and gave him a smile while flicking her hair that was blown by the wind. “There you are.”
She was like a predator that had been lying in wait for a long time for her prey to deliver itself to her!
“Should the CEO of H Group really be here right now?”
Renee had a glass of red wine in her hand. She swayed it gently and joked, “Shouldn’t you be talking to the big
shots below about the future of the industry? What are you doing here?”
Stefan frowned as he observed the woman’s every move. He asked, “What are you doing here? And why are you
dressed like this?”
“Dressed like what?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRenee put down her wine glass, lifted her skirt and spun around. She looked at him seductively. “What’s wrong?
Don’t I look good in this?”
“Stop wasting your time.”
He grabbed her wrist forcefully and pulled her into his arms. He said mercilessly, “It’s over between us. No matter
what you do, I won’t feel anything.”
“Then why are you so scared to look into my eyes?”
“Says who?”
Stefan lifted her chin with his fingers and looked straight into her eyes.
Although his handsome face was as cold as ice, his moving Adam’s apple betrayed his chaotic emotions inside. With
a hoarse voice, he asked, “Tell me what you’re doing here.”
