Renee turned around and their eyes met. In his eyes, she once again saw the coldness of old.
The air seemed to freeze at that moment. Even though they were on a warm island it felt as cold as the South Pole.
Neither of them spoke but one could feel the exchange of sharp blades between their eyes.
“Oh no!”
Leia covered her face. She knew this would happen!
The atmosphere was as eerie as a horror film. Leia who was stuck between them felt extremely awkward. She felt like jumping into the sea to get away.
“Umm… Mr. Hunt please don’t misunderstand. The two of us talk nonsense to each other all the time. Sometimes we don’t really mean what we say. Besides besides…”
Leia was crumbling under the intense pressure. She racked her brains trying to make excuses for Renee.
Although she strongly disapproved of their reunion she did not hope to see them get into a fight over something so ridiculous.
“I meant everything I said.”
Renee stared at Stefan expressionlessly. His coldness did not make her nervous at all. She said calmly “Everybody wants eternal love but fundamentally love is just the result of a sudden surge in hormones. After a while you’ll get tired and you’ll get bored. Instead of making hypocritical promises why not just accept the laws of human nature honestly?”
“How rational of you. If I hadn’t known better I would have thought that I’m dating a robot.”
Stefan gave her a cold smile. It cut her like a sharp knife.
He was a calm rational and emotionally stable person himself. In fact he was known to the public as an emotionless person.
But now he had become the one who had lost control of his emotions.
He lost control because of what Renee said and did. In fact she did not even have to do anything; merely her rational attitude was enough to make him lose control!
Renee continued expressionlessly “Don’t flatter me. I can’t compare to a robot. A robot can guarantee to treat you the same way forever. I can’t guarantee that.”
“So what you’re saying is you’re mentally prepared to leave me already?”
Stefan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
“I wouldn’t say that but… I wouldn’t get hung up on the idea of eternal love either. Let nature take its course. We’ll stay together if we feel like it and we’ll break up if we feel like it. You feel the same way don’t you?”
“No I don’t!”
Stefan’s eyes were as deep as black holes that would suck everything in. He gave her a firm stare. “From the moment I decided to start over with you I never thought of breaking up.”
Even Leia was a bit moved by his words let alone Renee.
As a former stan of the “Hunt My Everheart” ship her desire to stan the couple once again burned fiercely but she tried to suppress the impulse with reason.
‘Wake up Leia Osborne! A collapsed ship is not worth stanning!’
Leia looked at Renee. She thought Renee must be really touched too like she was. She was half expecting pink bubbles to pop up around Renee.
After all no woman in the world could resist sweet words from the man she loved right?!
But surprisingly Renee seemed puzzled instead. She kindly reminded Stefan “Your nose will grow out if you lie.”
Stefan: “……”
Leia: “……”
Renee was worried that Stefan’s ego might be bruised so she softened her attitude and like a mother coaxing a rebellious son said “The moon always wanes after it becomes full. Sometimes it’s a bad omen to make empty promises too early. I’m just worried that we might be disappointed. That’s why I’m planning for the future.”
