Francine leaned against the door, looking more and more confused. "This doesn't sound right. Now it's Stefan

screaming... Is he getting beaten up?" "How can that be? Mrs. Hunt is so graceful and delicate, like a feeble,

wealthy lady. She couldn't possibly do such heinous things."

"Ah, you don't know her. Don't be deceived by her kind exterior - she's actually a tough fighter on the inside. She

reminds me of myself when I was younger!"

"If that's the case, don't be concerned. It demonstrates Mrs. Hunt's ability to keep Mr. Hunt in check. Well, I never

imagined Mr. Hunt would have such a day. I'm embarrassed to hear what's going on inside." Lisa couldn't help but

cover her face as she imagined what was happening.

"You're right... She can keep him in check!" Francine's eyes shone and she praised Renee, saying, "Renee is a gem.

She excels at everything, even this! She really is flawless. Oh, my wish to have a grandchild seems to be coming

true."

They quickly left, and the electricity was suddenly restored.

Stefan and Renee had no idea their strategy would be so successful. When the lights came back on, they were in a

"The reason for my visit is..." She paused briefly before remarking cynically, "I came to see whether you really are

dead. After all, you were supposedly reduced to ashes in a cemetery."

He wasn't upset. "Are you happy I'm alive?" He sarcastically said, crossing his arms against his chest and leaning

against the door frame.

She rolled her eyes at him and turned around. "I'm not going to give up. Since you're still alive, our war has officially

begun."

Renee went down the stairs and spotted Timothy pretending to read the newspapers on the sofa.

She squinted at the old man suspiciously. "Were you in on this, Grandpa Hunt?"
