Chapter 1534

Stefan’s reaction frightened Renee, and she realized she had gone too far. “I’m sorry. I just… didn’t want you to regret it in the future,” Renee mumbled. She knew he was a privileged man who was used to power and respect. If he one day became an outcast because of family and love, she would be heartbroken. She didn’t want to see him sad.

“It’s up to me if I’ll regret it or not. I’m an adult, and I can tell what’s important to me.” Stefan held Renee’s hand and said tenderly, “Our love is like a crystal-it’s beautiful and pure but very fragile. We need to take care of it together; I don’t want to see the love we finally found disappear. Can you have a little confidence in me?”

“Okay, I’ll stop trying to persuade you. We’ll face the storm together.” Renee took a deep breath, wondering if she was convincing him or herself. Honestly, she was the one with the most doubts and fears. Back then, she was brave because she still had her sight, and she knew she could help Stefan face any challenges. However, now she was just a burden to him, and the pressure of it made her want to give up.

“I know what you’re worried about, but don’t worry. I won’t let that day come…” Stefan promised softly as he hugged Renee.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

They stayed like that in silence for a while.

Finally, Stefan took a deep breath, and looked at Renee seriously. “There’s something else I need to ask you.”

“Sure.”

“Did you… give your eyes to Jovan?” Stefan sounded unhappy.

Renee sipped her wine, feeling a little light-headed as the wine burned her throat. “I did… Are you mad at me?” She smiled and asked Stefan innocently like a child.

Stefan’s expression turned cold, and he asked, “Why would you do that?”

“Umm… how do I put this? I don’t want to owe it to him.” Renee sipped the wine again as if she wanted to boost her courage. “He gave up his eyes to you willingly because he didn’t want to see me sad. I felt like I owed him a favor. Now that I paid him off, it’s been transferred back to you again.” At that point, Renee leaned against Stefan and hooked her arms around his neck, looking up at him with a loving smile.” So don’t even think of breaking up with me, okay? You owe me a pair of eyes, so you have to be with me for the rest of your life.”

“Okay, I promise.” Stefan’s anger immediately turned into heartache. Renee was clearly trying to pay off Stefan’s debt even though it seemed like she was sacrificing for Jovan. The depth of her love for Stefan was beyond his imagination; it was almost like she had given her eyes to him instead of Jovan.

“I’m sorry… I did this to you. Why are you so silly? I’m not a nice person, and I’ve harmed you so many times. Why did you do this for me?” Stefan was overwhelmed by guilt, and his eyes watered.
