Chapter 1525
Smack!
"You did it again! I'm going to tell Dad and ask him to crush this lousy place of yours!" Seraphina wailed as she
touched her swollen cheek. She fled, not even realizing that Renee was blind.
"Mommy, you're so cool. You drove her away so fast. You're a hero!" Hugging Renee's waist, Abby looked up at her
mother in admiration. "I want to be a hero like you too when I grow up."

Adie, however, was not satisfied. "That woman is a villain, Mommy. She came here to find fault with us, but you let
her go with only a few slaps. Weren't you too easy on her?"
'Adie, you've already vented your anger on her, so there's no need to overdo it. Although she's not nice, she's not
so bad that it's unforgivable. She's just a little stubborn. Plus, she's a victim in this affair too. She's quite pitiful, and
she's been punished enough today," Renee patiently tried to persuade Adie. Despite Seraphina's radical actions,
Renee had a good impression of her. Seraphina was straightforward, and she sincerely loved Stefan. If the both of
them had not fallen in love with the same man, they might have been friends.
Renee was much more scared of those who secretly plotted against them than Seraphina who was straightforward
in her revenge. When she thought about it, a figure appeared in her mind, making her shiver. It was Briar, the
woman who had passed away. Renee had accidentally pushed Briar off a cliff to protect herself, and she had felt
guilty ever since. She had wanted to confess to her crime many times but couldn't bear to leave the children and
Stefan. She knew she had no choice but to push Briar off, because if she hadn't, Renee would've been pushed off
instead.
"Mommy! Mommy!" Adie called softly as he held her hand.
Renee snapped back to reality and asked in Adie's direction, "What's the matter, Adie?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I think that bad woman won't let things go like this. Should we hire some bodyguards to protect us?" Although Adie
was young, he did things meticulously. Since Stefan was not around, Adie considered himself the man of the house.
He would bear the responsibility of protecting Renee, Abby, and Margaret.
"I don't think she'll pester us; she's just here to show off and scold me. Now that she knows I won't leave your
father, she might not focus on me..." Renee felt that Seraphina would focus on how to ruin Stefan instead, and to
do that, she would probably conspire with Jovan. Stefan was the one who had to worry, not them...
"Should we just ignore her then?" Adie was still a little worried.
"Yes, we'll go on as usual," Renee replied calmly.
She had no idea that there was somebody else targeting
them that would prove to be more troublesome than Seraphina.
