Chapter 1577
It was better to communicate instead of making assumptions if there was an issue.
“Nothing. It’s getting late. You should sleep early.” Stefan didn’t want to tell her because he didn’t want her to worry.
“No, there has to be something going on. Tell me!” Renee said urgently. “I said that there can’t be secrets between us.
I don’t want you to go to bed worrying about whatever that is.”
Stefan sighed deeply, knowing Renee wouldn’t let it go until he told her.
“Hurry up. We can sleep after you tell me!” Renee complained.
“Okay, I’ll tell you.” After some hesitation, Stefan explained,’ Grandpa talked to Jovan alone again tonight, and I talked to him too. Can you guess… what we talked about?”
“Control over Hunt Enterprise?” Renee asked instantly. “Isn’t that why he constantly fights with you? Doesn’t he find it tiring?” Although she had been staying at home recently, she did listen to financial news. She was aware of Jovan making vast changes to Hunt Enterprise that had been pretty effective… and that had also affected Stefan’s position there. After Jovan had regained his eyesight, he had come back stronger.
It was obvious that he had been planning while he was blind, and he was trying his best to defeat
Stefan. At the thought of it, Renee felt that she had wronged Stefan since she had given her eyes to Jovan, which had given him the power to fight Stefan. It seemed that both Stefan and the Hunt family would suffer a huge blow thanks to Jovan’s comeback.
“No.” Stefan shook his head and said coldly, “It seems he’s been coveting something else instead.”
“If he doesn’t want Hunt Enterprise, then…”
“He wants you,” Stefan looked at Renee and said quietly.
“Me…” Renee’s heart skipped a beat. She was aware of Jovan’s feelings for her, but she always felt that it was because of his desire to defeat Stefan. Logically, the fastest and most effective way to defeat Stefan was to get Hunt Enterprise, so Renee wondered why he involved her instead. Renee thought about it for a while, then said, “Is there some misunderstanding or is this a tactic to throw you off? His target has always been Hunt Enterprise.”
“I thought so too. But do you know what Grandpa offered him?” Stefan clenched his fists and growled, “Grandpa already promised to give up Hunt Enterprise to him on the condition that he doesn’t pursue you. Hunt Enterprise and his victory over me was practically in his hands, but he turned Grandpa down… He rejected Grandpa’s offer because of you!”
