Chapter 196

After Haze left, Renee was left alone once more in the huge villa.

Like she had done for many nights, she stood at the window, gazing out at the moon.

The moon tonight was round and bright, hanging like a luminous pearl in the dark night sky.

‘The bright moon sends a message of love…‘

For some reason, Renee suddenly recalled the stranger she chatted with the other night.

His profile picture was also a moon.

The only message he sent her was also a picture of a moon.

Renee subconsciously took out her phone, clicked on the picture of the moon, and zoomed in to take a

closer look.

Based on the angle, the picture should have been taken through the french window of a certain office.

Perhaps the guy was a salaryman that had to work overtime until late at night, getting his value

squeezed dry by his capitalist

company?

Renee smiled, casually took a picture of the moon and sent it to him.

It’s weird. Although she had not chatted with the guy much, and most of the time it was just her

complaining about her problems, she had a feeling that the guy was definitely reading attentively no

matter what she typed.

Even if he did not offer any word of comfort, he could definitely understand her feeling.

This made her feel warm inside…

After a few minutes, she received a WeChat notification on her phone.

“Can’t sleep?”

Two simple words. She could not help but feel like the person on the other end should be a calm, quiet

and reliable man.

“Yeah, lots of stuff going on.”

“For example?”

“For example, there’s a very annoying man who’s always messing with my mood. For example, my

only relative in this world. was framed and imprisoned. For example, I want to leave this place, but I

can’t. Everything’s going terribly!”

Renee typed this message with a gloomy face, pouring out her grievances.

The guy must be so annoyed with her constant complaining by now.

So she quickly sent another message. ‘I’m sorry, I shouldn’t treat you as an emotional trash can, but I

haven’t had anyone to

talk to for a long time. Talking about it makes me feel better. You can just ignore what I said.”

The guy remained silent for a while before sending out a few concise words. “Why do you want to

leave?”

“For personal reasons.”

She was currently pregnant with twins and it would show soon. She must leave Beach City to give birth

to the babies in secret.

Before leaving, however, she needed to lay out the necessary plans for her business empire as soon

as possible so that her babies and her could live without any worries in the future, free of anyone’s

control.

Renee did not tell the guy what her “personal reasons” were. The guy was also very polite and did not

ask.

After a long time, he finally replied.

“It’s late. Go to bed. Maybe when you wake up tomorrow, your problems will no longer be problems.”

“I hope so.”

Renee exhaled. She felt much better.

In this fast–moving world, was there a warmer thing than someone urging you to go to bed?

The stranger’s concern gave her strength in this lonely night.

She believed that everything would gradually get better.

Renee put away her phone and fell asleep peacefully.

The next day, she woke up early, washed herself a bit, took the USB flash drive containing the

surveillance footage, and headed

out to meet Zack to discuss tomorrow’s trial.

But the moment she opened the door, she bumped into Margaret head–on!

“Margaret, is it… really you?”

Renee rubbed her eyes. Her first thought was that she’s still not fully awake yet and she’s seeing

things.

“Of course it’s me, Miss Ren.”

Margaret held Renee’s hand excitedly and said, “You’re amazing, Miss Ren. You told me you’re gonna

get me out, but I didn’t expect you to be able to do it so quickly. If your parents in heaven knew that

you’re this capable, they would be so very pleased!

“But…”

Renee was even more confused now.

She was trying to get Margaret out, but she had not made a move yet!

“Miss Ren, what did you do? The prison guard said a scared–looking Briar Desrosiers withdrew her

charges early this morning. and that’s why I was released!”

Margaret asked curiously.
