Chapter 1532

Stefan returned to Everheart Manor right after the minute the meeting was over. He used to be aworkaholic who always worked overtime until midnight, but now he was a good family man who didn'twant to work overtime for even a minute. Since the president behaved that way, all his staff stoppedworking overtime too, creating a very good working environment for the company.

On his way home, Stefan bought a bouquet and a good steak because he wanted to have a candlelightdinner with Renee that night. Although he was away for only half a day, it felt like half a year to him,and he missed Renee dearly.

Coincidentally, Abby and Adie were away for two days because of a school trip, so Renee was alone athome with a female caretaker called Tess Perez, who was responsible for taking care of Renee.

"Mr. Hunt, you're home.” Tess was only a part-timer, so once Stefan got back, she packed up to leave.

Stefan looked around the living room and the manor, but there was no sight of Renee. He turned toTess andwhispered, "Where's Renee?"

"She's sleeping in the bedroom because she was tired. Do you need my help to get her downstairs?"

"No, it's fine. Thank you for today,” Stefan spoke gently.

"Okay, Mr. Hunt. I'll see you tomorrow.” Tess nodded, then

Stefan and Renee were now the only ones left in the spacious manor, but Stefan didn't want to wakeRenee up.novelbin

He put the flowers down and went to the kitchen to grill the steak. He had finally gotten some alonetime with her, and he wanted to make it special for her. He cooked the steak until it was medium rare,

then removed it from the pan and sprinkled it with pepper. After that was done, he got a bottle of goodwine and poured the wine into a decanter.

"Why are you so romantic tonight, Mr. Hunt?"

Stefan heard Renee's voice from behind him, and immediately turned around. She was leaning againstthe door of the kitchen in her pajamas, a mischievous smile on her face. "Why did you come down? I'mnot done yet.”

"I missed you, so I couldn't wait any longer...” Renee walked over to Stefan and hugged his waist frombehind, saying softly, "You used to love eating the steak I made for you back then, but every candlelightdinner only felt awkward because we weren't in love. We love each other now but I can't see such aromantic scene. It's such a pity... We're always one step behind."

"Silly, it isn't important whether you see it or not. What's important is that our hearts are together. I canmake you a candlelight dinner every day if you want. This is the kind of romance that you can feel.”

"That's true. I smelled the flowers you bought and felt the warmth of the candles. I can even taste thesteak. This is already enough for me. Any more and I'll get scared of losing this bliss."

It was very easy for people to grieve when they were very happy because of the fear that thehappiness might fade. That fear never left Renee. Yes, her days were warm but they felt unreal, andshe always wondered when she would fall back into that dark abyss.

"Stop overthinking. I’m right here, and I'm not going anywhere.” After getting the meal ready, Stefan led

Renee back to the dining table.
