Chapter 325

Renee thought for a while before she replied, "Your house is very beautiful, so I decided to take a stroll and look around. But during my stroll, I had to pee, so..." To avoid Justin's suspicion, she had to sacrifice her image.

"Oh, I see..." Justin smirked and said, "I should've come earlier then."

'You pervert!" Renee felt guilty for lying to him, so she tried to push the blame to him. "If you keep this up, I'll go home tomorrow and stop this whole act."

"I'm sorry, my bad. I won't joke around anymore. Why are you dressed like a servant though? And your makeup looks weird too..." Justin gave her an odd look.

"What do you mean by that? This is how I look with a bare face. Do you find me ugly? And I got this shirt from the closet, it looks nice so I wore it. Are you trying to say that I look like a servant?"

"No. I..." Justin was lost for words.

'There's no need to explain. I'm tired, FindNovel so I want to rest now!" Renee exclaimed, and left immediately.

Justin watched as she gradually disappeared from view, and a smirk crept on his face.

'She actually guilt-tripped me even though she's the guilty one!' He mused, clicking his tongue in disapproval.

After Renee returned to her room, she changed her clothes, took off her makeup, and decided to go to bed.

The bed was so comfortable - it felt like she was sleeping on cotton because it was so soft. Soon enough, she drifted off to sleep She slept so deeply that she had a dream... or more accurately, she considered it a nightmare because Stefan was in it. In it, Stefan had held a whip, tied her to a chair, and threatened her, "Brave, aren't we? So brave that you dare to betray me and marry another man! Come back now, or else I will punish you!"

The whip hit the floor with a loud crack. Then, he took a hot iron rod and was about to hit her with it...

"Ah! No, I'll come home immediately!" Renee screamed, waving her arms and kicking her legs.

"What happened? Are you having a nightmare?" A gentle hand stroked Renee's back and a soothing voice comforted her, "Don't be scared, you're alright."

Renee instantly woke up from the nightmare and opened her eyes drowsily. She saw Sophia staring at her kindly. In her sleepy state, she saw her mother's image flash before her, and she subconsciously clung on to Sophia. "Mom, I miss you... Can you and Dad stay with me forever?"

In front of outsiders, Renee appeared to be strong and brave, as if she could overcome any obstacle that came her way. However, she was still only in her early twenties - like a beautiful and fragile flower. She would only be vulnerable around people she was close to. 1

'What did you dream about to scare you like this?" Sophia liked Renee, and when she saw Renee in such a helpless and vulnerable state, she couldn't help but feel sorry for her. "Don't be scared, no one would dare hurt you anymore. The Baldwin family will protect you."

Slowly, Renee regained her senses and realized what had happened. She instantly sat up. "I'm sorry, Aunt Sophia."

The two began chatting, and eventually, a phone call interrupted them.
