Shadows of Destiny: A Tale of Liberation

Chapter 1147

Renee did a double take as she wondered what Stefan was talking about.

Who else would I come for?"

Stefan stayed silent, and simply stared at her with a meaningful look in her eyes.

Renee lost her patience, and glanced at her surroundings before quietly saying, "I've cried and begged-l've

prostrated myself as much as I can, so please, haven't you had enough? Let him go, or you'll suffer too if I expose

you."

"So, you're done with crying and begging... and now you're threatening me?" Stefan folded his legs and smiled

meaningfully, twirling his glass of tequila and taking a sip of it. "Don't you know what the price for threatening me

is?"

Renee rolled her eyes at the man's love of being dramatic-what else could it be other than another round of

bickering?

"I don't want to cause a scene, and no one wants word of this to get out," she retorted staunchly. "But if you insist, I

don't mind knocking your teeth out!"

Stefan was surprisingly not upset, and actually teased her, "That actually rhymes. Maybe you're working part-time

as a rapper?”

Renene was speechless-when did he become so cringeworthy?! That was the worst joke she'd ever heard!

"Since you came for Jovan, I'm curious to ask-how far would you go for him?" There was a gleam in Stefan's eyes

as he looked at her. Truthfully, he had no idea where Jovan was, but he was still curious about how far she would go

for Jovan.

Renee was no fool, however, and sneered, "Judging from that question, I guess you're not letting him go unless you

get to mess with me?"

Stefan raised a brow. "That's one way to put it, yes."

Renee suppressed her rage and asked calmly, "Then, tell me-what form of harassment would it take for you to be

satisfied?"

She would stick to what she said before-she did not want to cause a scene, and would resolve the issue as subtly as

possible. After all, beneath the appearance of their current enmity was their complicated past—it hit too close to

home, and she would rather keep everything buried in the past where no one would find it.

"You love Jovan, don't you?" Stefan asked Renee, resting his chin on his hands.

Renee stayed silent and scowling. Anyone else would not hurt her if they asked that question. But it had to be

Stefan, and it made her throat tighten. After all, she could never tell the man before her that it was he whom she

would love for all eternity!

However, Stefan took Renee's silence for admission, and his sharp gaze turned cold. Even if he did not want to

admit it, he knew very well that he was very upset at that moment. He did not know what he was upset about, but it

was clear that he was!

And like an obstinate child who refused to lose, he was bent on interrogating the woman for the truth.

"I can see that you love him very much. Is that why you eloped with him, and betrayed me?"

The memories he lost had been an inner demon that hounded him relentlessly. He knew he should let sleeping dogs

lie, but he simply could not resist!

It would be best if he could remember everything!
