Chapter 1280
The surgery would take a long time, but Renee did not dare to leave. She waited outside the wholetime.
When everything was going smoothly, Stefan turned to leave.
“Wait,” Renee whispered suddenly as she stared at his back.
Stefan stopped and said arrogantly, “What now?”
After a while of nibbling her lip, Renee finally gathered her courage and said, “Thank you.” She took adeep breath and continued, “My family was once on friendly terms with yours, but unfortunately, we’reenemies now. I hope that our families as well as the Baldwins can put their prejudices aside and be atpeace after Quinton is cured. I believe that’s what our ancestors would want too.”
Stefan stared at Renee, disappointment blooming on his face as he sneered. “So, your onlyexpectation of me is peace between our families?”
“What else would it be?” Renee swallowed in panic, not knowing how to face Stefan. Too many thingshad happened between them that she couldn’t ignore, and she couldn’t get close to him again.

“No, I want him to leave. I just… don’t want to owe him anything,” Renee said hesitantly.
“You owe me a favor too, but you treat me very differently.” Haze sighed and said bitterly, “So, he hiredthe famous doctor, and now I’ve lost. I’m afraid my three percent has turned into a negative numberagain.”
Renee was at a loss for words. Her mind was thinking of Stefan, so she couldn’t be bothered to reply toHaze. Yes, her attitude was vastly different when she accepted Stefan’s help. She felt that she couldreturn Haze’s favor one day, but something always weighed on her mind when Stefan helped her.
It seemed like she could never repay his kindness…
