Stefan found himself bewitched by her charms, and couldn't control his heart.
He wasn't laughing at her.
Rather, he was sincerely happy because he admired and liked her.
"Of course!" Renee raised her chin.
"T feel that I'll get good feedback if I make others happy.
It's a good way to recharge myself.
I don't think it's bad.
But you don't know how to be nice to your grandpa, even when he's at such an old age.
All you do is drive him up the wall.
If I were him, I would've long beaten you up." Renee purposely criticized him as she wanted to tease him.
"L." Stefan was at a loss for words.
These days, he did nothing else exc ept drive Timothy up the wall.
"You're right, Ren.
You spoke my mind.” Timothy felt quite happy, as if he had found someone who understood him. He glared disdainfully at Stefan.
"Honestly, he's spoiled and annoying.
He drives me mad! You're right.
He'll only come to his senses with some beating." Stefan frowned, but he couldn't retaliate them as they ganged up to criticize him.
"Isn't it unfair for you two to judge me like this?" "What's that? I'm your grandpa! That's the biggest faimess." Timothy grew angrier as he spoke.
He instructed a servant nearby, "Edith, go get my ruler from my study! I want to beat him up in front of Renee as an example.” "Yes, Master." Edith nodded.
She was worried about Stefan, but she dared not disobey Timothy.
Hence, she obediently went to the study to get Timothy's ruler.
Ina while, she returned with the ruler.
However, it looked more like a wooden stick.
It was thick and heavy, with the rules of the Hunt family engraved on it.
Renee swallowed, and said carefully, "Grandpa, why do you want to do this? It looks terrifying. Hitting people with this seems rather painful.” "Of course! This is used to teach disobedient people a lesson.
This guy ke eps challenging my patience.
Thaven't punished him yet.
Since you're here and you think that he should be punished, then as his elder, I can't delay it. 1 must punish him!" Timothy k ept a strict face.
"This ruler is considered light.
1 should have used a whip that would leave traces on his back.
Then, he'll leam his lesson!" "Please don't.
L.
Iwas just joking.
We're all adults.
We just do things by following our hearts.
There's no right or wrong.
Just... put this away.
I'm scared.” Renee swallowed; she regretted teasing Stefan.
She wanted Timothy to teach Stefan
a lesson, but she didn't expect him to be that cruel toward Stefan to the E
point of punishing Stefan physically.
She wondered if Timothy wanted to hit Stefan vigorously.
Renee recalled the year she and
Stefan went for a divorce without timothy's permission
‘When Timothy learned about that, he
whipped Stefan cruelly and Om
vigorously.
She wondered if such a melodramatic scene would happen again or not.
"What do you mean there's no right or wrong? He's an irresponsible man.
He hurt a lot of people, too.
That's wrong of him.
Since he's made a mistake, I should beat him upl" timothy looked serious he didn's interid to go soft on Stefan at all.
