Chapter 1632Chapter 1632
Renee ignored Stefan's question and turned to the nurse standing nearby." I’m tired. Can you help me
back to my room?" The effects of the anesthetic had passed, and she could move, but she was still
weak from the abortion and poisoning. She had no energy to handle Stefan, and all she wanted to do
was sleep.
Stefan wasn't blind-he could tell that Renee was very uncomfortable.
Besides, it was obvious she didn't want to tell him about the surgery, so he just controlled his emotions
and stopped interrogating her. Taking a deep breath, he finally said, "Let me carry you."
Seeing that, the nurse immediately said, "Thank you, Mr. Hunt. Since Ms. Everheart has just had
surgery, she might experience some light spotting, but it's normal."
"Spotting?" Stefan stiffened. He wanted to ask what surgery could cause that, but he stopped himself.
He had been trying to get to the bottom of it, but it seemed like Renee didn't want him to know. He
didn't want to make her feel bad, so he decided he would ask her about it when she was feeling better.
The priority right now was to help Renee get better.
He carefully carried Renee out of the surgery room. He had no idea what had happened, but Renee
had lost a lot of weight. In the past, she felt like a kitten in his arms, but now, she was as light as a
feather. It made him feel like she would wither away if he wasn't careful.
"Ren!" Leia had been waiting outside, and when she saw them come out, she quickly rushed over.
Heartbroken and guilty, she stammered, "I'm sorry. I... I didn't manage to stop him."
"Silly, you don't have to apologize. He's determined, and I knew that you wouldn't be able to stop him. I
should be apologizing to you for stressing you out." Renee smiled and comforted Leia gently. She couldhear the fight
outside during the surgery just now, and Renee was already very grateful that Leia had managed to
block Stefan until the surgery was over.
"Hey, we're besties. You don't have to say that..." Leia followed Stefan, wanting to go to the bedroom
on the second floor.
However, Xavier immediately gripped her wrist to stop her. "They have a lot of things to discuss right
now. Why are you trying to tag along? This is between them."
"It's none of your business!" Leia glared at Xavier and jerked her hand away. "How could someone as
novelbininsensible as Stefan take good care of Ren? I'll be worried if I can't take care of her."
"Just rest. Renee doesn't need you taking care of her right now."
Leia's eyes blazed in defiance. "What does she need then?"
"Only Stefan will know." Xavier shook his head helplessly. Was Leia a third wheel in her previous life?
Why did she always want to meddle in their romance?
Leia hesitated after taking a few steps, realizing that what Xavier said made sense. Renee had just lost
her and Stefan' baby-only he could share that grief with her. As Renee's friend, Leia couldn't provide
her with that kind of consolation.
