Chapter 184

However, even after a long wait, no new dialog box appeared.

Renee’s curiosity was piqued even more. She asked, “Are you new?”

+15 BONUS

Now, even the “typing…” status was gone. The person was playing dead now.

No reply?!

Renee was originally not interested, but she now had a strong desire to conquer this challenge.

The guy was quite the character. He was probably a handsome young man that was used to women’sadoration. That’s why

he’s so arrogant.

Renee happened to be in a bad mood and wanted to pour out her negative emotions, so she simplytreated the person as a tree

hole.

After all, a tree hole only had to listen and never had to speak. That’s its function..

The phone lit up with a faint light in the dark room. Renee typed a wall of text into the chat.

“Lil bro, is there anyone who really annoys you?”

“You’re young, so probably not, but big sis does know someone like that. The most ironic thing is, thisperson I hate is

someone I used to deeply love.”novelbin

“I swear, I’ve never seen a bigger fool, so let’s call him The Fool from now on!”

On the other end of the phone, Stefan sat in the brightly lit CEO’s office, looking out the window at theflashing neon lights with

mixed feelings.

Renee’s messages kept popping up, which forced him to put down his work temporarily.

He frowned when he saw the word “fool“. It made him so mad that he felt like hitting someone.

Could she have guesses that it was his burner number so she was flaming him on purpose?

He did not know what to reply, so he simply did not reply anything.

Meanwhile, Renee’s bitter words poured out of her continuously like flood water.

“How annoying is this fool, you ask? He pretends to be as emotionless as an ice cube, but he’s actuallya lame guy with extremely poor taste. He knows that the other woman is rotten to the core, but he stillindulges her unconditionally. Don’t you think he’s blind? I’m really ashamed of the fact that I once likeda person like that…”

Stefan: “…”

He’s now even more suspicious that she knew it was him and she’s mocking him!

Stefan was about to reply something when Renee sent another message.

“But it’s strange. Obviously, I don’t like him anymore, but why do I still feel sad? Does love have aresidual effect?”

Stefan stared at the chat for a long time.

A trace of pain inexplicably emerged from the depth of his heart.

Perhaps he was indeed too cruel in the way he handled the matter with Briar, but he had no choice.

Briar was the woman the elder brother he respected the most asked him to take care of before hisbrother’s death. The child in Briar’s belly was the only offspring his brother left behind.

His brother sacrificed his life to save him.

He must keep his promise and take care of Briar and her child no matter what.

If he had to choose a person to disappoint, that person could only be Renee or, more precisely, it couldonly be himself!

Stefan felt like he had a lot to say to Renee, but in the end, he did not say a word.

He looked out the French window at the full moon that shined like jade, took a picture of it, sent it toRenee, then put away his

phone.

When Renee saw the picture of the moon, it warmed her heart for some reason, even though therewas no word attached to the

picture.

“The moon is beautiful, isn’t it? I hope he sees it too.”

After sending that message, she put away her phone too. Her sense of loneliness had subsided a bit.She closed her eyes and easily fell asleep.

“The moon is beautiful, isn’t it?” is a famous phrase by Japanese author Sōseki Natsume, usually usedto express “I love you” indirectly!

Renee kept this little secret hidden in the deepest part of her heart and would never let anyone elseknow about it!
