Chapter 218
The crowd gradually dispersed, and the mall became peaceful again.
Renee looked at Jane’s neck worriedly. “Although the wound isn’t deep, it still needs to be looked at. I’ll take you to the hospital.”
Renee looked around for Stefan, but he was nowhere to be found. She felt very upset. The man was so selfish and heartless! They had barely survived a dangerous situation, but he had just upped and left!
Renee brought Jane to the shopping mall’s entrance to hail a taxi. Immediately. Stefan’s silver car slowly moved towards them and stopped in front of them.
Renee’s tense expression relaxed slightly. Looks like he still had a shred of humanity in him! She opened the door to the backseat and got
in after Jane.
Stefan sat in the driver’s seat, wearing sunglasses. “Jane can stay. You, get out,” he said to Renee coldly.
“Huh?!” Renee was in shock. Was the man serious?
“The weather is scorching hot, and I narrowly escaped death earlier. How could you ask me to get out? Are you trying to kill me?” Renee asked incredulously, her hand still on the car door.
“Kill you?” Stefan sneered. “I don’t need to, you seemed eager enough to end your life yourself earlier. Clearly, you don’t care much about your life anyway.”
“You!” Renee clenched her jaw in anger. What did Stefan mean? She’d risked her life to save so many people, and he didn’t even thank
her for it. Instead, he was being mean and cruel! This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
“Stefan, are you jealous of me?” Renee demanded.
“Jealous of you?” Stefan frowned a little. He didn’t understand her.
“I single–handedly rescued everyone in the shopping mall, and in contrast, you seemed like a useless idiot. You’re probably jealous I stole
the limelight, right?” Renee said, bristling.
Stefan was speechless. He tried to hold it in, but couldn’t stop the amused smile that bloomed on his face. He had to admit that Renee’s train of thought was rather unusual. It wasn’t necessarily a bad thing, though. It was better for her to think he was angry because he was jealous rather than because he was worried about her.
Stefan found it hard to admit to himself that he was worried about Renee earlier. He knew, without a doubt, that he would have laid down his life to protect her, and it was a terrifying thought. For once, Stefan had lost his control and composure, and it was all because of how deeply Renee affected him.
That was why he got angry and took it out on Renee. He felt like he might be sick at the thought of it!
