Renee trusted promises, and quickly freed Stefan, seemingly unafraid of his retaliation.
    It was just like she put it—she had restrained him once, and that meant she could do it
    again.
    “There’s nothing womanly about you at all!” Stefan sighed emotionally, flexing his wrists that
    had almost been dislocated. He was actually skilled in martial arts, even winning the school
    championship for four years running- only to end uppletely restrained by a woman.
    If word of that ever got out, he would die of embarrassment.
    Renee said nothing, however, and suddenly leaned closer to him.
    “What are you doing?” Stefan tensed up, sliding backwards and pressing himself against
    the car door. He tried to get out, only to realize that he had locked it himself.
    What had he done to deserve this?!
    “I’m warning you, don’t do anything stupid. We can talk about this…” He stared at Renee
    warily as if she were a beast -he did not want to be tied up again!
    Renee rolled her eyes, speechless. How much of a coward could he be? Was she even that
    scary?
    “Call your people now!” She snapped coolly, shoving his phone in his hands.
    Stefan breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly searched for Elijah’s number, once again the
    indomitable CEO as he called Elijah and told him, “Release Quinton Everheart. The matter
    has been resolved.”
    “What?! Just like that?!” On the other end, Elijah was dumbfounded by Stefan’s orders. “But
    he was out to get us at every turn, Mr. Hunt! The losses from our core nt being destroyed
    is still inestimable, and we’re waiting for you toe here and personally end him! But…
    you’re telling us to let him go instead?”
    “I know what I said, or are you questioning my orders?!”
    “That’s not what I meant, sir-but he’s a clear threat against H group. We’d have trouble
    exining ourselves to our
    board of directors…”
    “I’ll deal with them myself.”
    “Huh…” Elijah was reluctant, but there was no way he would disobey his boss’s orders.
    “Alright, I’ll have him released.”
    Stefan hung up, and turned towards Renee, demanding coolly, “Are you satisfied now?”
    “Absolutely.” Renee nodded repeatedly with a fawning smile, actually surprised that Stefan
    was that cooperative.
    In contrast, she was quite viinous.
    “You may be satisfied, but I’m not!” Stefan suddenly snapped, his expression inscrutable as

    ever.
    “I know my brother broke the rules, but I will apologize in his ce andpensate for any
    losses.”
    “No!” Stefan shook his head. “Compensation is far from enough.”
    Renee raised a brow. “Then what do you want?”
