Chapter 1815

Renee had passed out drunk on the sofa.

"You're really..." Jamie smiled helplessly. "That was fast; I couldn't even get any gossip from you!" He tried to wake her up but failed. When he was sure she was unconscious, he took out his phone and texted someone. [She's passed out. You can come over now.]

Hardly a few minutes later, Stefan rushed over. He sighed deeply when he saw Renee lying on the sofa, looking vulnerable and delicate. "I asked you to take care of her. Why did you let her drink? Don't you know she gets drunk easily?" Stefan strode towards Renee and touched her forehead, then he held her cheeks and asked nervously, "Why are her forehead and cheeks burning hot? What did she do before drinking?"

Jamie massaged his forehead, letting out an exasperated groan. "Mr. Hunt, anybody's cheeks would be hot if they've been drinking. I swear I just chatted with her, I didn't do anything indecent to her..." He paused, then added thoughtfully, "Well, when I found her, she was stuck in a tree. I told her to jump down and let me catch her like we did when we were young. Maybe she was entranced by me, and it made her blush."

Stefan knew that Jamie was joking, but it still made him feel uneasy. Jamie had carried Stefan's woman in his arms; he was lucky Stefan hadn't punched him. "Don't get close to her again," Stefan warned Jamie, then added crossly, "And stop calling her 'little girl'. It's too intimate." He was Renee's husband and even he hadn't given her a nickname, but her childhood friend she hadn't seen in decades had beat him to it.

Jamie shrugged, looking innocent. "Mr. Hunt, you're overthinking. She and I grew up together, so we're childhood friends. I called her 'little girl', and she called me 'big guy' for years, so what's wrong with it?"

"Childhood friends? Don't you know what that means?" Stefan's anger grew. "Childhood friends are childhood sweethearts. Are you saying that you both are a couple?"

"Well, no... but I wouldn't mind it." Jamie smiled wolfishly as he thought about it. If he hadn't moved away and had chosen to stay here instead, he might have become Renee's husband. What an appealing thought.

"Get that smirk off your face and stop having wild thoughts about my wife!" As a man, Stefan knew very well what Jamie's smile meant. He looked down at Renee, holding her to him protectively, then growled at Jamie," You don't have to stay here. I'll take care of her."

Jamie sighed and said mournfully, "How ungrateful, Mr. Hunt. You rushed me here when you needed me, but once you don't need me anymore, you chase me away."

"Why wouldn't I?" Stefan shot him a vicious glare. "Are you expecting to stay for breakfast?"

Renee shifted in her sleep, disturbed by their loud conversation. "Ugh, can you pipe down? So noisy!"
