"So what's your decision now?" asked Lucas."I'm going back to the mansion with Renata tomorrow. Julian will be suspicious if I disappear from the mansion for a long time with Renata," said Bastian."You have to be careful with Jacob," Lucas said, which Bastian nodded at."I will still need your help to find information and protect Renata," said Bastian."Have you fallen in love with her?" asked Lucas, making Bastian flinch at Lucas' question."Me? No," Bastian replied a little nervously."Really? You're not like Bastian usually," said Vincent, who is Bastian's best friend."That's how I usually am; I haven't changed," Bastian sighed. "I just don't want to kill or hurt the wrong people. My instincts strictly forbid it," said Bastian."Are you sure that's all you're protecting her for?" asked Lucas."Yes. Not to mention the reason. I can't possibly like her," said Bastian with a small chuckle."It doesn't matter if you like her. Revenge that turns into love," chuckled Lucas."Right. Wh

Renata was pensive in her room. Tonight, she sleeps with Batian again. Renata cried herself to sleep, and when she woke up, she was in his arms. Now she was sitting on the bed with her eyes fixed on the handsome man beside her, who was asleep. She rested her head on her knees with her arms folded. She continued to observe the face, which was like a beautiful carving. What woman wouldn't fall in love with the man in front of her? Likewise, she immediately fell in love with the man in front of her. Unfortunately, the figure in front of her was a demon that resembled an angel. It hurt Renata, but occasionally she was able to ease that suffering.His fickle nature Sometimes kind and caring, sometimes very rude to her. And earlier, she said she should trust him; could she trust the demon in front of her?Bastian is one of the monsters; will he turn good and help his own enemies? Honestly, Renata is not sure Bastian will send her home.While focusing on the face in front of her, that was an

Renata had just come down the stairs. She frowned when she saw a middle-aged woman enter the mansion carrying several bags of groceries. Renata recognised that woman. If she remembered correctly, she was Julian's wife."Good morning," he said, greeting the woman with a wide, motherly smile."Good morning, Tante. Emm, Bastian has just left," Renata replied as she stood in front of the woman."Don't call me Tante. Call me Mom," she said to none other than Maria, Julian's first wife."Eh?""You're my daughter-in-law, so call me Mom.""Umm okay."Maria smiled warmly at her as she rubbed Renata's head. Renata felt that Maria was nice; she was so motherly, not much different from her mother."Mom, bring some food. Have you eaten yet?""Not yet, Mom.""Then let's have lunch together."Maria took Renata to the dining table. She took out all the dishes she had brought."Mommy cooked for you and Bastian. Unfortunately, Bastian has already left, so you can just eat, yes," Maria said, looking exc

Bastian came home drunk. He entered the house staggering and hit the table and Gucci several times until they fell and broke on the floor.Hearing the commotion, Renata woke up from her sleep. She walked out of her room and saw from upstairs where Bastian had fallen with an injured hand from the broken tiles of the Gucci."Oh my God, Bastian!" shrieked Renata as she ran down the steps. She helped Bastian to his feet."What happened to you?" Renata said. Bastian did not usually come home drunk.Renata was quite overwhelmed by Bastian's large body. They climbed the stairs to the second floor. Renata took Bastian into their room and laid him down on the bed. She hurried to bring warm water to a basin and medical equipment.Renata started to take off Bastian's shoes, took off his watch, and even saw a pistol around his waist. Renata took the gun and put it on the table.Renata treated Bastian's wounded and bleeding palm. She wrapped it with a bandage.Afterward, she went back to cleaning

Bastian walked out of his office. He and Renata had been in separate rooms all night. Bastian doesn't like Renata protecting and defending other men. Even though he was Renata's husband, even though Bastian realized that he was the one who forced Renata to get married and be by his side,That morning, Bastian was already neat in his work suit. He has to go to the company center, where there is a big meeting between shareholders and subsidiary leaders. And now it's time for him to meet with Julian.Renata had just come out of her room, and that's when they crossed paths and briefly exchanged glances, but Bastian turned his face away first."I'm not going to kill your lover," Bastian said in a flat tone. "Wait for me to prepare everything to send you back to your family, and I'll file for divorce. At that time, you can be with your ex-lover!" After saying that, Bastian moved away, leaving Renata, who was still frozen in place.I will divorce you and send you home."How easy it is for hi
