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…”
