Chapter 1809
Leia almost choked on her beer. Her eyes widened as she stared at Renee in disbelief. "Ren, what did you say?! Stefan had an affair?"
"Maybe." Renee shrugged and laughed bitterly. "Isn't it dramatic?" She had suffered so much pain lately. She had lost her sight and her baby, then had nearly died from the pain of heavy metal poisoning. She had yearned for Stefan to come home quickly when she was in so much pain that she wished to die because he had been her strength and support. She had never been so depressed back then, but she had almost had a mental breakdown when she found out about Stefan and Briar. It had disgusted her so much that she had finally given up hope; All that was left in her was disappointment. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
"It can't be!" Leia put the can down and sat up straight. She looked at Renee and said firmly, "I know Stefan-he's not the type to cheat on his lover. If he wanted to, he would have done it ages ago. You both were entangled for many years, and I know that he's always been honorable, and he also knows how to keep his distance around other women. Do you remember when you were away from the world on Sun Island? Everyone at Beach City assumed that Stefan wasn't straight because he rarely spoke to women and spent all day with his buddies like Xavier. The only other woman in his life was Seraphina, his friend who he didn't even regard as a woman. How could a guy like that have an affair?" Although Leia found Stefan an eyesore, she believed that Stefan knew his boundaries in a relationship.
"I didn't believe that he would do such a thing either, but there were photos of it. I couldn't lie to myself even if I wanted to..." Renee sipped some beer again. Although it was supposed to be sweet fruit beer, she tasted nothing but bitterness. ‘I couldn’t figure it out, and I slowly turned negative and depressed until I ignored everyone." Luckily, she went to Joyner Village to heal, and had finally escaped from that abyss.
"There were photos?" Leia gasped. "Who did Stefan do it with? What kind of photos? Were they indecent? Can you show them to me?" She was just curious about the woman who had managed to bewitch Stefan. Even if the woman had only slept with Stefan, she had to be extremely charming.
"Let's not look at the photos. They're boring, and anyway, I deleted them." Renee did not want to keep on hurting herself, so she deleted the photos once she started feeling better.
"But who was it?" Leia hurriedly asked.
"Briar." Renee sounded indifferent. She did not expect that she could say that name with such calmness after so many years. If Briar had not meddled in their relationship, Renee and Stefan would not have had to face so many obstacles. However, Stefan had to be blamed too-if his morals had been strong, an incident like this would never have happened.
