There was a shrewd gleam in Renee's eyes, and it was obvious her mind was racing to make sense of all the

information Yulia had given her.

"You can’t say that. Both the Hunt and Everheart families were developing in Beach City and both families always

helped each other. There weren't any big conflicts of interest. Even if they became distant because of your

brother's incident, they never meddled in each other's business. I think that the Hunt family's rapid development

was mainly caused by their own efforts."

"That's true." Renee's gaze softened. "After all, the Hunt family were the only ones who helped my family when they

went bankrupt that year. Besides, Grandpa arranged a marriage between Stefan and I because he believed that

the Hunt family were the only ones who could truly take care of me. If they really were my parents' murderers,

Grandpa would have never let me marry into the family."

Renee did suspect the Hunt family that year, but she quickly eliminated that option because of Stefan's grandfather.

She chose to trust the Hunt family unconditionally.

"So, forget about it. Stop dwelling on it. You're having a very good life now, so there's no need to keep bringing up

the past. We should look ahead instead..." Yulia knew that she couldn't change Renee's mind, but it didn't stop her

from trying.

Sometimes the truth was a double-edged sword - though it could provide clarity, it could also bring one grief.

"Don’t worry, I know what I'm doing." Renee forced a smile onto her face.

She had to prepare herself to accept the truth, regardless of the consequences.

The coffee beans were almost ground. Renee meticulously brewed a cup of coffee for Stefan based on the

temperature, richness, and sweetness that Stefan was used to.

Stefan was sitting in the garden. He was tapping his foot on the ground, seemingly impatient. When he heard

footsteps behind him, he heaved a sigh of relief as if he was a child waiting for school to end.

"What took you so long?" He tried to sound casual, but the displeasure in his voice was clear. He had been waiting

for her instead of that cup of coffee. He didn't know when he had started to rely on her, but now, she made him

feel safe.

"Don't you know that good things come to those who wait? Of course, a good cup of coffee needs some time to

brew." She handed the steaming cup of coffee to him and said confidently, "I know you'll love it."

"Are you that confident?" Stefan was an extremely picky person, and did not think that the coffee she made would

suit his taste. However, the second he took a sip, his eyes widened in shock. The familiar taste coated his tongue,

and the fog in his head seemed to disappear.

Incredulity dawned on him. "This coffee..."
