Chapter 409

The study was big and dark, with rows of bookshelves.

Stefan turned on the light expressionlessly, only to find Old Mr. Hunt sitting on the sofa, causing him to

step back in shock.

"Grandpa, why are you trying to scare people instead of sleeping?"

Old Mr. Hunt's face was stiff. While leaning on his cane, he scolded, "I'm trying to scare myself to

death. I'm sick of worrying about my children and grandchildren every day. I'm better off dead!"

"There you go again..."

Stefan rubbed his forehead and stabilized his emotions, then walked up to the old man and squatted to

meet him in the eye. He patiently asked, "Did something happen today that make you unhappy?"

"It's nothing, I'm lamenting my own uselessness, that's all. My old eyes are so blurry that I can't even

see a person clearly now."

The old man shook his head, sighing.

He thought back to the time when he followed General Everheart and fought against enemies on the

battlefield. He used to be so brave and spirited.

But now, he couldn't even walk steadily, or talk properly, or see clearly...

Old Mr. Hunt suddenly took out his phone. His old fingers pressed the screen a few times before he

said, ‘Oh no, my eyes are not that good. Stef, come and help Grandpa take a look. Who's the woman

in this video? Her skills are good."

"Which one?"

Stefan leaned over to take a look.

It turned out to be the viral video of Renee.

He instantly understood what the old man was doing.

Therefore, he squinted slightly and feigned ignorance, saying, "Yeah, who is she? Probably a small

time influencer. These are probably all scripted.

These people would do anything to be famous. Let's not watch it anymore. It's all fake."

Stefan tried to grab Old Mr. Hunt's phone, but the trembling old man suddenly became extremely lively.

He warned, "You stinky brat, stop feigning ignorance. Open your eyes wide and take a good hard look

at the woman in the video."

"Okay, I'll take a good hard look."

After watching it again, Stefan said without hesitation, "I remember now, this is the actress that Xavier's

company has been promoting in recent years. Her name's Shirley White... Do you wanna see other

photos of her?"

He did not want the old man to know that Renee had returned to Beach City. Otherwise, considering

the old man's style of doing things, it would surely cause a storm in the city.

Besides, Shirley and Renee looked kinda similar, so he should be able to bluff his way out of this.

"Nonsense!"

Old Mr. Hunt was furious. He gave Stefan a hard slap. "Do you really think I'm blind? This is my

granddaughter-in-law, Renee! How could you not tell me that she's back? Do you really think I don’t go

online?"

"Let me tell you, not only do I know that she's back, I even watched her live stream! I even gave her a

donation!"

When the old man said this, his expression was very proud. He sneered," There's a fool who donated 4

million dollars. I wonder who he is. If you have that kind of awareness, I might have two great

grandchildren by now!"

Stefan:"..."

He was surprised to find out that his grandfather, who was nearly a hundred years old, who was almost

completely out of touch with the outside world, and who rarely used electronic devices, actually surfed

the internet regularly. He even saw Stefan's embarrassing moments!

If Stefan's identity as the top donor got exposed, he would really die of shame!

"Grandpa wants to see her. Invite her over for dinner."

The old man waited for Stefan all night for this.

"You'll have to do that yourself. I don't think I can get that appointment. As you can see, she's really

popular now so she's very busy nowadays."

Stefan said sarcastically.

Renee had already cut off their relationship cleanly. He did not want to take the initiative to contact her

because that would be too embarrassing!

"Can I? Okay, as you wish."

Within the vigorous and shrewd eyes of Old Mr. Hunt, interesting ideas emerged..
