Chapter 717
“Yeah, maybe.” Renee didn’t deny it either. Thinking back, despite having been married to the man forso many years, despite expressing every ounce of love she had for him, she’d never really tried puttingher ego aside to make him stay either.
She had been willing to give up everything for him, but she had let him go as soon as he brought it up.She didn’t bother to try to save the relationship, and even left before he could leave her…
She couldn’t help but wonder if things would’ve been different for them if she had just done somethingback then.
As time passed, the clock soon struck 3 AM, which was usually when the human body felt mostexhausted.
Renee was starting to feel drowsy, and her movements were slowing down. However, she knew thatshe couldn’t sleep now, as she wanted to get the Rainbow Glaze. She simply had to finish this projectbefore dawn arrived.novelbin
“I’m getting sleepy.” Stefan stretched as he looked at the Lego set that was only partially complete. Heturned to the woman and said, “We’re not going to finish it anyway, so why don’t you get some shuteye?”
Renee bit down on her tongue so that she could stay awake. “You can go ahead and sleep if you’retired. I can finish this on my own. I just hope you can keep your promise and not play any tricks thistime!”
“Are you sure you can do this on your own?” Stefan smirked. “Normally it’d take at least half a month tofinish building something like this.”
“Well I’m not the average person, so I don’t need that much time,” Renee said in a determined andarrogant tone.
Noticing the woman’s fatigued eyes, Stefan sighed. “I’m being serious, you can go get some rest first.I’ll give you the Rainbow Glaze later.”
“There’s no need for that!” Renee’s movements quickened as she responded, “We made a deal, so Ihave to keep my word. I don’t need your pity.”
“Fine then, I’m going to bed.” This was the first time Stefan had ever seen Renee’s sheerstubbornness. Hence, he decided not to say anything else and headed to the bathroom within themaster bedroom.
Once he was done with showering, he noticed Renee curled up on the floor sleeping, still holding someblocks in her hands.
“Oh, Renee Everheart, you sure do talk big.” Stefan chuckled as he stared at the woman, his gazesoftening. Barefooted, he quietly approached the woman and picked her up bridal style.
Renee was simply fatigued, as she had been pulling quite a few all-nighters. She clung to the man withboth her arms wrapped around her neck, drifting in and out of sleep.
Stefan lowered his head, looking at the woman fast asleep in his arms, and a wave of affectionoverwhelmed him. He was usually a hostile person, and disliked being too close to anyone. However,he couldn’t help but wish this moment would last a little longer, so that he didn’t have to break awayfrom her soft embrace…
“What kind of spell is this, woman? How do you always make me look past my principles time and timeagain?” He murmured as he placed her on the bed, gently brushing the hair out of her face.
Suddenly, he realized what he was doing, and was about to get up to leave.
At that moment, Renee hugged his waist tightly and refused to let go. She mumbled under her breath,“You can’t leave, I wanna hug.”
