---
The morning sun hung warm over the garden, but the atmosphere between the two women was anything but gentle. Seraphina lingered in the shadows, watching Renee with cold, calculating eyes. There was something about Renee that nagged at her—something in the way she moved, the way she tilted her head, the way she seemed to *see* without truly looking. Seraphina had heard the rumors. They said Renee had lost her sight. They said she was blind now, fragile, no longer a threat.
But Seraphina wasn't convinced. So she remained silent, observing, testing her theory.
Meanwhile, Renee seemed completely at ease, laughing softly as she played with Abby and Margaret in the courtyard. She did not appear to notice Seraphina at first—or perhaps she simply chose not to. But Seraphina kept watching, waiting for a crack in the armor, waiting for any sign that Renee's blindness was real. Yet each movement Renee made was fluid and confident, like a woman who could see every step ahead.
Annoyed and impatient, Seraphina finally stepped forward.
"Seraphina?" Renee turned toward her, her voice calm and tinged with indifference. "So, you finally noticed me."
Seraphina snorted and crossed her arms, studying Renee up and down. "You've changed," she said carefully. "You look... weaker." But even as the words left her lips, she wasn't sure if she truly believed them.
Renee smiled and casually took a seat, gesturing to the empty chair beside her. "I've been waiting for you to come to me. But I didn't expect you to take this long. Rather generous of you—giving me all this peaceful time."
Seraphina's doubts multiplied. How could a blind woman know exactly where she stood? How could Renee point to the precise chair with such casual accuracy? The sunglasses on Renee's face suggested otherwise, but her behavior didn't match. Seraphina's instincts screamed that something was off. Taking a deep breath, she settled into the chair next to Renee.
"You're the generous one," Seraphina replied, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "It's rather amusing—how enthusiastic and friendly you are to your enemy."
But Renee did not take the bait. Instead, she calmly picked up her coffee cup and took a quiet sip. Then she gently touched Abby's head. "Abby, sweetie, why don't you go play with Margaret for a while? I need to have a little chat with this lady."
Abby frowned and hugged Renee tightly. "No way. She looks like a bad person, Mommy. I'm afraid she'll bully you." The little girl shot a fierce glare at Seraphina. "I bet she's here to steal Daddy away. I won't let her get away with it!"
A small, tender smile tugged at Renee's lips. "Don't worry, Abby. Daddy will always be yours. No one can take him away from us. I'm only going to talk to her about... him. So behave and go play, okay?"
Abby hesitated but finally nodded. "Okay. But be careful, Mommy. If anything happens, just scream, and we'll come running to protect you!" With another stubborn glare in Seraphina's direction, Abby finally dashed off toward Margaret, leaving the two women alone in the garden.
The silence settled between them like a heavy fog.
Seraphina stared at Renee, scrutinizing every subtle movement. For a brief moment, she was convinced she was overthinking. Perhaps Renee really was blind, and that casual grace was just a facade. Perhaps it was all coincidence.
Throwing caution to the wind, Seraphina sneered. "You seem so happy, Renee. Look at you—your children, your husband. It hasn't even been a year, yet you've conveniently forgotten our little arrangement."
She slammed her hand on the table, her eyes blazing. "You promised me! You told me you'd let me take good care of Stefan and spend the rest of my life with him! While he was weak and broken, I was the one who nursed him back to health. I resolved the crises at Hunt Enterprise—every single one! But before I could even enjoy the fruits of my labor, you swooped in and took him away from me. Aren't you going too far? Do you take me for a fool?"
Renee remained composed, even amused. "Calm down, Seraphina." She smiled, and it unsettled the woman before her. "The moment I learned that you were wicked enough to mess with Stefan's brain, I decided you would never have him. And honestly? You did this to yourself."
All the heat in Seraphina's veins turned to ice. "I... I didn't do anything to his brain! Don't talk nonsense!" Her confidence shattered, and panic crept in. Only she, Jovan, and the surgeon who performed Stefan's procedure knew about that dark secret. How could Renee possibly know?
Renee crossed her arms, her tone calm and devastatingly certain. "Don't deny it. I have a detailed report of Stefan's brain surgery from Dr. Wagner. Perhaps you'd like to take a look?"
Seraphina's eyes widened in genuine horror. "What?"
"Dr. Wagner initially intended to send it directly to Stefan," Renee explained, tilting her head with a faint, mocking smile. "But he let me read it first—because he didn't want Stefan's recovery to be affected by the ugly truth. So tell me..." She paused, letting the weight of her words sink in. "Do you think I should send it to him?"
The world seemed to stop for Seraphina. Her breath hitched, her carefully constructed fortress crumbling inch by inch. In that single question, Renee had stripped away all her arrogance and left her standing exposed. The beautiful life Seraphina had dreamed of—the life she had schemed and sacrificed for—was now dangling by a fragile thread, and Renee held the blade.
She had come to intimidate a blind woman, but instead, she had walked into a trap of her own making.

Reader's Impressions & Star Rating: This chapter was absolutely gripping! The power shift between Renee and Seraphina is deliciously executed. Renee's calm, almost playful confidence completely unbalances Seraphina, who arrives expecting to bully a blind, weakened woman—only to discover that the tables have been turned. The protective sweetness of Abby adds warmth to an otherwise icy confrontation, and the final revelation about Dr. Wagner's report is a masterful cliffhanger. Watching Seraphina's composure unravel is deeply satisfying. I give this chapter a strong ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4.8 / 5 Stars.
Next Chapter Prediction: With the secret of Stefan's brain surgery now fully exposed into Renee's hands, Seraphina will likely panic and scramble to silence Renee or destroy the evidence—maybe even turning on Jovan to save herself. Meanwhile, Renee may decide to take the report to Stefan, forcing him to face the horrifying truth about the woman he once trusted. But will Seraphina resort to even darker methods before the truth comes out? I predict an explosive confrontation and a desperate scheme in the next chapter!
