Chapter 1570
Jovan left the room, and found Stefan sitting in the living room with a worried expression.
"You're still here?" Jovan asked teasingly, sliding his hands into his pockets. "It's late. Why
aren't you home with your wife and kids since you claim that you're such a good
husband?"
Stefan got to his feet and glared at Jovan. "I was waiting for you!" "You were waiting for
me?" Jovan chuckled and sneered sarcastically," What an honor to have the great Stefan
Hunt wait for a nobody like me." "Cut the crap!" Stefan growled and demanded, "What did
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou talk about with Grandpa? Tell me. He doesn't have a say in a lot of things." He figured
that Timothy might have tried to offer something to Jovan to protect Stefan. He just hoped
that Jovan wouldn't be too cruel. Stefan knew Timothy held him in high regard, but he
always felt that it was unnecessary.
"You're a smart man; I'm sure you don't need me to spell it out for you, right?" Jovan
walked over to Stefan, then turned to the large French window contemplatively. "The moon
is bright tonight. Why don't we take a walk in the garden and talk things over?"
Stefan slowly clenched his fists. He felt that there was nothing to talk about between
them, and he was already being generous by not strangling Jovan to death.
"You'll be reaching home late anyway, so you've got time. Let's go!" Jovan scoffed and
walked towards the garden.
Frowning, Stefan took a deep breath and followed him reluctantly.
The garden of Hunt Manor was spacious with pavilions, bridges, and streams. It looked like
a dreamlike fantasy world with crickets and birds chirping in the bushes as moonlight
illuminated the area.
Jovan stopped in front of a pond and gazed at the moonlight reflected on its surface. "I
never really appreciated the beauty of nature, but now I see how amazing this world is. A
flower, a leaf, the bright moon, the floating clouds... All of them are mesmerizing."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStefan's patience had reached its limit, and he snapped, "I'm sure you didn't ask me to
walk with you so you can act all pretentious, right?" "Why so agitated, Stefan? I remember
you always being the calm and steady one, emotionless to the point that you didn't feel
like a living person. You were like a robot without consciousness." Jovan turned around and
stared at Stefan with a complicated look, then added, "Oh, I know-it must have been
because of my blood and eyes. You seem more humane now; it's like looking at my past
self. I feel sorry for you." "That's what you wanted to say?" Stefan scoffed and continued,
"I know that you saved me, and that's why I don't argue with you about everything. But I
won't go easy on you because of that if it comes down to it."
