Chapter 1113

“It’s late now. I want to rest. If you want to know, come to me early tomorrow morning. I’ll tell you everything.

“I’m sleepy. Push me back,” Jovan asked Renee.

“Okay.”

Renee nodded very obediently.

Watching their backs disappear from his sight; displeasure crept up Stefan’s heart.

They were so harmonious and warm together, as an old married couple would. In comparison, he looked like an unreasonable maniac.

‘What happened? Who can tell me? What the hell happened?

‘I think I’m going mad!’

Without turning around, Renee pushed Jovan back to his original ward.

She tucked him in after quietly making the bed and helping him back on it. She was quiet the entire time, with her chest stuffed with complicated feelings.

Finally, she still failed to avoid him. It might be their fates. It was destined that the simple incident would become complicated. The calm surface of the lake would be attacked by billowing waves.

Jovan leaned against the head of the bed. His handsome face was filled with a rare solemnity. He was also quiet all that while.

Only the sound of their breathing could be heard in the quiet environment. It was an odd atmosphere.

After sorting everything out, Renee whispered, “I know you’re outraged. Go ahead and scold me if you want. I handled things poorly this time.”

She had just promised not to hide anything from him again, yet she went on to conceal such a big issue. Anyone else would’ve been furious and disappointed, let alone a man like Jovan, who’d haggle over everything.

“You must be joking. Why should I scold you? I’m just a worthless piece of trash. I even have to rely on you to survive. What right do I have to scold you?” Jovan arrogantly spat as he kept his composure.

“Jovan, please don’t be so sarcastic. I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want to affect your mood. You know very well how petty you are. If I told you, you would flare up in a rage.”

Renee was dissatisfied with Jovan’s strange tone and complained about it without holding back.

Jovan raised both his hands in defeat and appeared slightly pitiful. “Look! I said only one thing, but you have so many excuses to retort to me. I don’t have the guts to scold you.”

“Err…”

Renee was rendered speechless.

It seemed that she had indeed overreacted, and it had caused Jovan to appear slightly aggrieved and pitiful.

She immediately apologized, “I’m sorry. You can scold me now. I won’t talk back to you.”

Hearing that, Jovan became helpless. “All right, I meant it. I don’t have to scold you. It’s because you’re still destined to be with him. It’s an answer God provided you. Of course, you can’t be blamed.”

“To hell with that! It was just an interlude. We’ll go now so he won’t find us again.”

Renee was about to pack things up when Jovan stopped her.

“Don’t. I’m exhausted. I don’t want to move now.”

“Well, what should we do now?”

“What else can we do? Since you bumped into him, let nature takes its course. Go ahead if you want to get back together with him. I’m satisfied enough to have you take care of me for half a year. I have no regrets now.”

Jovan raised that remark with an undertone of grief.

“I told you that I won’t leave you. Don’t worry. Go to sleep. Nothing’s going to change even if I meet him again.”

Renee held his hand and promised firmly.

She knew what it meant to be grateful. Jovan agreed to save Stefan because of her. Given how Jovan turned out in the end, she felt she should be responsible.

It was not her style to throw something away casually after manipulating it.

Jovan finally fell asleep. Perhaps it was because he had gotten her promise.

Renee, on the other hand, tossed and turned in bed. She could not fall asleep no matter how she tried.

She got up from the bed and casually put on a coat, wanting to go out for some fresh air to calm herself down.
