Chapter 50

It was already late at night when Stefan and Renee finished changing their clothes.

She lay on the bed, losing all patience as she gazed at the handsome man sitting on the couch in blue

pajamas.

“I only have a slight injury on my arm. You don’t have to stay here and look after me all the time. You

should return. to your house, and we should keep our distance like before.”

“You got hurt saving me, so I’m responsible for it,” Stefan calmly replied as he folded the magazine he

had been reading. He coldly gazed at her and asked with seriousness, “Do you need me to tuck you in

bed?”

“That’s not necessary!” Renee said, immediately crossing her arms and turning to the other side of the

bed.

She reasoned that if he persisted in guarding her, she should leave him to his own devices since she

was sleeping comfortably on the bed and not the one suffering on the sofa!

The orange light from the table lamp illuminated the room. A calm silence filled the room as time

passed, and the only sound she heard was of him flipping through the magazine.

It was strange. She had been having difficulties sleeping for the last several days, but now she felt

peaceful and secure for the first time and immediately fell asleep.

Stefan was also getting tired. He put down the magazine and gently rubbed his temple. His dashing

features looked perfect under the warm light.

He turned to look at Renee, who was fast asleep on the bed.

She curled into a ball and turned her back on him. His heart softened when he saw her in that adorable

state. He didn’t understand how such a petite, weak woman could have such courage to protect him

that day.

He stayed by her side because he was worried that if she woke up in the middle of the night thirsty or

hungry, no one would be there to help her. He was also afraid that those who tried to murder him might

come for her in revenge.

He had to be consistently on guard, as they had tried multiple times to kill him!

Stefan sucked a deep breath and sipped his coffee to keep his energy. Then, he took out his phone

and scrolled through social media to pass the time. On accident, he pressed on the fan page of him

and Renee.

It was usually quite an active page, but it got even more attention after the incident at the auction.

There were multiple pictures and comments about Stefan and Rene, so he randomly clicked on one of

the posts.

“This is super cool! See how the usual obedient wife protects her husband!”

There was a video of Renee kicking the gun away, and she looked cool indeed.

“She’s…”

Stefan’s eyebrows furrowed as he focused on the video and looked surprised. Her swift motions

seemed only possible after eight to ten years of practice.

‘Is she the same weak and incapable girl I met?’ he wondered to himself.

He even suspected she was possessed since the difference between her on regular days and in the

video was so significant. (1

The majority in the comment section felt the same as Stefan.

“Wow! Renee is so amazing. She stood in front of a gun for love. This is so touching!”

“I suddenly feel that Stefan doesn’t deserve her. He’s so weak. I think Mr. Osborne is more powerful!”

“I agree. I announce that Hunt my Everheart is fake. Liam my Everheart is the real couple!”

“I agree!”

“Me too!” (1

“I agree as well!”

When Stefan saw this, he became angry.

He registered an account and commented angrily, “A playboy like Liam doesn’t deserve her.”

Instantly, he became the joke of the internet.

“Why don’t you try and date Renee then?”

“Liam has a lot of admirers, but he only loves Renee.”

“You’re definitely a hater. Get lost!”

Seeing this, Stefan angrily deleted his comment.

Apart from that, there were posts applauding Renee and Liam and bad-mouthing Renee and Stefan.

Suddenly, he remembered the fanfiction about him and Renee that managed to capture the hearts of

many.

However, the owner had deleted that post, and many were begging for it to be published again. Stefan

was looking for it too but found nothing in the end.

He was annoyed and phoned Elijah once again.

“Can you still find posts that had been deleted before when you’re doing damage control?” Stefan

asked.

“What?”

“There’s an id called ‘Everheart_Hunter’. They wrote a fanfiction of Renee and me before. Get the

technician to retrieve it.”

Elijah was confused. ‘What’s going on?’

Ten minutes later, he called Stefan back and said, “Mr. Hunt, the technician examined it, and we did not

erase it. The author seems to have deleted it on their own. Not only that but all online traces of it were

also removed. I believe they did it on purpose.”

“On purpose?”

Stefan’s face darkened, and his desire to read it became stronger.
