Chapter 1038

Seraphina immediately tried chasing Renee away.

Stefan, who was silent the entire time, furrowed his brows as he spoke frostily. “You got injured thesame day I did?”

“Uhm…” Renee froze, her expression stiff.

‘Sh*t, I misspoke.’

“How did you get hurt?” The man continued questioning.

“I… I tripped and fell by accident.” Renee came up with a simple excuse and rushed out of the room.

She actually didn’t intend for him to notice her. She wanted to do as promised. She acted like she wasmute and only took care of him quietly. She only wanted to see him recover fully and leave with noregrets.

However, she knew that it would now be difficult for her to hide away, especially with her previous messup…

“She left?” Stefan seemed rather disappointed.

“What? Did you not want to leave? And you just said you love me so much you wanted to marry meright away!” Seraphina huffed out of jealousy, feeling quite anxious.

She then wrapped her arms around the man’s neck and voluntarily kissed him on the lips. “She’s goneanyway, so stop thinking about her. Focus on me instead.”

Stefan responded to her advances, seemingly unfocused, as he no longer returned her passion. Hismind lingered on that ‘attendant.’novelbin

Renee proceeded to stand guard at the kettle for four whole hours, only to have made yet anothersmall cup of tea.

While the tea was still steaming hot, she quickly dashed back to Stefan’s ward. Once again, Seraphinaseemed threatened and signaled her to leave after placing the cup of tea down.

Renee shrugged and walked in without making a sound, placing the medicine gently, and intended toleave right away.

Stefan noticed the smell of medicinal tea and knew someone had come in. He immediately asked,“What is your name?”

Renee halted, not knowing if she should respond.

“Oh she’s just an attendant, why would you need to know her name?” Seraphina intertwined her fingerswith him as if trying to assert dominance. She spoke in a sickeningly sweet tone as well. “I want you toonly have eyes for me.”

She soon came to regret saying that, as she noticed Stefan’s expression turning extremely cold, as ifsomeone had poured salt on his wounds.

“Hah, you’re overthinking things. I’m blind. How could I have eyes for anyone?”

“I… I don’t mean it like that. Please don’t misunderstand Stef, I…” Seraphina explained. “I just careabout you too much. I don’t want anyone stealing you from me.”

These days, Stefan had shown her nothing but pure love and affection. He never yelled at her, let aloneshowed her such hostility.

She couldn’t bear seeing all his attention shift towards Renee when all she did was bring him medicine.It was as if the man was under her spell.

“Who in their right mind would want to steal a blind man? Unless this person has other intentions fromthe start…” Stefan said, obviously trying to test Renee’s reaction. He then ‘looked’ in her direction as ifhe could sense her there.
