Chapter 427

In actuality, Stefan's condition was much worse. The tissue around his leg had been severely damaged, so much so that he'd be risking amputation, and his life along with it.

"I'm finished! Ah, I'm so full!" Renee patted her stomach with a satisfied grin. She then turned to Liam and asked, "Did the doctor mention when I can take this cast off? And when is my estimated discharge date?"

'That depends on your physical condition and cooperation. It'd take at least two weeks, and at most months."

"I have to rest well then. Once I'm completely healed, I have to personally thank Hunt for saving me."

Upon hearing this, Liam couldn't help but feel slightly panicked. "You don't really have to, right? He did you so wrong back then! Just take this as his way of atoning for his sins. What is there to thank him for?!"

He was worried that Renee wouldn't be able to handle the shock and sadness if something really were to happen to Stefan. Hence, he figured it would be best if the two stopped seeing each other again.

'You really are a petty kid, aren't you? Are you worried that my feelings for him might rekindle or something?" Renee gently patted Liam's shoulder, comforting him.

"Be good, my little Liam. I promise you that I will never go back to that man, even if every man on this planet were to die. Relax, okay? And stop being so jealous all the time!"

She then poked him on his cheek. "Look at you, you're so angry that your cheeks are puffed up! Aww, what a cutie!"

'Fine..." Liam nodded, sighing helplessly at the same time.

He thought to himself, 'My boss is literally the only person in Beach City who would treat me, the legendary 'Devil Incarnate', like a little kid!'

Now, he could only hope that Stefan was as tough as they thought.

After Liam made sure Renee went to bed, he immediately rushed to Stefan's surgery room to check out the situation.

The man had always been his top rival, and he used to mistreat Renee as well, which was why Liam never really liked Stefan. However, knowing that he was the man Renee loved most, and also the father of those two little darlings, he still didn't wish for him to pass away at such a young age.FindNovel.com fast update

It was obvious that Liam loved Renee so much that he'd be willing to give her everything. Despite this, he had also mentally prepared himself to give up if the two ever got back together.

The door to the surgical room was shut, with a sign on it saying that surgery was still ongoig. It was midnight, and there was no one else there aside from Liam.

He continued staring at the flashing red light, growing more anxious with time. He had never imagined himself ever being worried for his rival's safety.

With that, a couple of hours passed. Just as Liam found himself feeling fatigued from standing around for so long, the door eventually opened.

He saw the doctor walking out of the room, shaking his head and sighing profusely.

'Doctor, how is he? Is he... alright?"

'I'm sorry, we've tried everything we could. The damage in the tissue around his wound was too severe, causing his entire body to be infected as well. We couldn't save him..."

'No, that's impossible! He's a tough guy! There's no way..." Liam was utterly shocked, unable to accept it.

The doctor patted him on the shoulder and said regretfully, "My condolences.
