Chapter 1048

However, Margaret never would have expected everything to turn out so smoothly, with so many coincidences on their side. ‘I guess it’s their destiny. The gods knew that they still had unresolved fate with each other, and forced the two together in their own mysterious ways.’

Sebastian chimed in warmly. “Ren, I heard about your situation from Margaret, and rest assured that the sanatorium will provide everything you need to help Mr. Hunt recover as soon as possible.”

“Thank you! Thank you so much!” Renee was so touched that she teared up, and bowed to everyone deeply.

“It’s getting late, so why don’t you and Mr. Hunt go get some rest for now? We have arranged the west wing suite for you – it has the coziest environment we can provide. Not only can you cook, rest, read freely, you can even take a hot bath under the beautiful night sky while listening to streams of water gushing gently. It is truly a place for relaxation.” The vice dean, also known as Sebastian’s wife, Yulia Norris, introduced the place warmly.

“Alright, thanks Mrs. Walker, and sorry for the trouble.” Renee looked at the woman gratefully. She used to be her mother’s best friend after all. ‘If Mom was still alive, she probably would look as peaceful and content as her.’

“Oh child, there’s no need to be so polite with me. Go get some rest. We still have a lot of time, so we’ll talk some other day,” Yulia replied as she stared at the woman sympathetically. She seemed as if she had a lot to say, but it could only be expressed through a silent hug in the end.

Led by the sanatorium staff, Renee passed the exquisite courtyard and arrived at their designated suite.

Since the sedative hadn’t worn off, Stefan was naturally still unconscious. Hence, they just gently placed him on the large bed within the suite.

Renee scanned her surroundings and noticed the rustic furnishings, along with the abundant greenery.

It was indeed as Yulia had described, this was quite a comfortable environment, one that felt like home.

She then opened up the windows, allowing the gentle night breeze to brush through the white curtains.

The fresh air felt as if it had been tinted by rain, gently arousing her senses and cleansing her fatigued body and soul.

“Phew, that feels great!” As she faced the lovely scenery, Renee spread her arms, embracing the nice breeze and relaxing completely. It had been quite a long time since she was able to rest like this. She seldom was able to stop and take in the scenery and the breeze, or merely enjoy a cup of coffee.

Time felt as if it had slowed down, as everything around her became slower.

After a while, Renee approached the bed. Seeing the man still sleeping soundly made her feel somewhat amused.

“Aren’t you a little too weak, Stefan? It’s just some sedatives, but you’re still sleeping! Hey, don’t tell me you died in your sleep when you survived that fall.” She laid next to him, greedily gazing at his handsome face like an addict.

‘His face was always so intimidating when he’s awake, so no one ever dares to come near him because of that. But… when he’s asleep, he’s just like a little child. He’s so cute that I can’t help but get close to him. Ugh, what a contradictory existence!’

“You could have just admitted that you’re a weakling, you know? Why did you have to act tough and jump down such a deep river? It’s not like you’re some reckless teenager, but you surely do act like one!” The woman continued rambling on while Stefan remained asleep, making one joke after another.

“Tsk tsk, it’s a good thing you only hurt your head and limbs. If something happened to your face, I wouldn’t like you anymore. Oh, just look at those perfect features…” Renee couldn’t help but get lost in her own desires, placing her hand on the man’s cheek and caressing him softly.
