“I’m going to kill you, Renee Everheart!” Seraphina howled like a banshee, and lunged at Renee again. “Who do you
think you are?! I’m telling you, I have something that could ruin your reputation! It might even cost you your life, so
don’t you dare provoke me, or else…”
“Enough!” Stefan growled harshly, grabbing her and holding her firmly. His gaze was icy as he warned her, “You’ve
been enough of an embarrassment today, so don’t make things worse. If you keep this up, not even your entire
family’s wealth would be enough to pay for the consequences.”
After hearing this, Seraphina immediately fell silent.
Renee quickly took the opportunity to provoke Seraphina into giving her more information. “Oh? Ruin my
reputation, you say? Tell me your plan then, my good daughter, Daddy won’t get mad at you. Unless… you’re

Seraphina hid behind Stefan, her mouth shut but her glare piercing. It was obvious that suppressing her rage was
absolute torture for her.
“You should stop messing with her too. She just has a fiery temper, so I’ll apologize in her stead. Please stop trying
to provoke her.” Stefan bowed gently to the woman. His politeness made it seem like there was a great wall
between them, despite their previous intimate relationship.
At that moment, Renee felt defeated, and her heart twisted painfully. Facing his courtesy was far worse than
fighting with him.
“And what’s your relationship with each other? Why are you apologizing for her? Are you close? Who is she to you?”
Renee smiled coldly as she sneered.
When she heard this, Seraphina’s eyes lit up and she nudged the man’s arm. She smirked and said, “Stef, since
Miss Everheart brought it up, shouldn’t you give her an answer? It’s time we officially announce our relationship to
the public anyway! You promised.”
Stefan tightened his grip on Seraphina’s shoulder, silently reassuring her. “Seraphina and I…”
The gesture infuriated Renee, and she clenched her fists.
“Hold on!” Before Stefan could speak, Renee interrupted him in an icy voice. She stood up from her seat and
approached them with slightly reddened eyes, staring at the man quietly. “Stefan Hunt, I’d advise you to think
before you speak. You should know how important KCL is to H Group… it’s worth far more than the Murphy family,
I’m sure. Not only does your choice concern you, it concerns your entire family too.” Renee couldn’t help but put
pressure on the man, making her stance clear.
This was a battle between two women who wanted to have Stefan all to themselves. As potential ‘sugar mommies’,
they were both equally willing to make sacrifices to win this pretty boy over.

pick.
Feeling threatened, Seraphina started bluffing to compensate. “What’s so great about the KCL Group anyway?
Aren’t you just some pathetic company that makes chips? How could you possibly be wealthier than my family?
What H Group needs the most is cash! Does your lame company even have that?”
Renee looked at Stefan imploringly and responded, “Stefan should know the current market value of KCL Group. As
long as you make the right choice, both H Group and KCL Group are yours.”
Seraphina, however, refused to admit defeat. “Oh, so what? My dad intends to hand our entire family business to
Stef too! All our assets will be his, sooner or later!”
