Chapter 657

Seeing how the situation was getting intense, Xavier tried to make peace yet again.

"Alright, alright. I hereby announce that Renee and I are merely friends. There is nothing else going on between us. As for Stefar and Seraphina, they're definitely like siblings and nothing else. Shirley and I aren't exactly together yet. Therefore, everyone's still single. We're free to be romantically involved with anyone we like!

"It's rare for us to get together like this. Let's just enjoy each other's company and not cause a scene. That's something only elementary school kids would do. If everyone's on board, let's bump fists and call it a day. Alright?" Xavier extended his fist after that.

Seraphina was the first to respond by bumping her fist against his.

If she still held a grudge against Renee now, she'd seem too calculative.

That was why she decided to change her tactic.

"Miss Everheart, since it's a misunderstanding, I'll apologize to you. I'm sorry for jumping to conclusions...

"I'm actually real easy-going. I like making new friends too. Since you're Xavier's bestie, you're also my friend!" Seraphina grinned cordially, giving off the impression of a down-to-earth kind of person.

Renee raised her brows. She also extended his fist and bumped against theirs. "Sure. Friends are always welcome. It's my pleasure."

When it was Stefan's turn, he uttered the word 'boring' before getting up and leaving.

The three were left there looking at each other.

"I think Stefan is having his period. His mood hasn't been good these days," Xavier said.

Seraphina clenched her fists. "That's rude of him. He deserves a beating."

Renee shrugged nonchalantly. "As expected."

Seraphina looked at Xavier. "You should chat with the others. Miss Everheart and I will roast the skewers. I'm sure we'll become the best of friends!"

"Sure. I hope you can become friends too. That way, well have more girls in our group." Xavier patted Renee on the shoulder. "Don't worry. Seraphine might seem scary, but she's actually very easy to get along with. You two will get along just fine!"

With that, Renee and Seraphina were the only ones left in the barbecue area.

With nobody else around, Seraphina dropped her act. She placed a few skewers on the barbecue grill and turned to face Renee "Since you left previously, why did you come back? Don't you know your presence is annoying?"

Renee wasn't surprised by Seraphine's sudden change in attitude at all. She looked at the burning coal and replied calmly, "Didn't I already tell you?

Xavier and I are best friends. I'm only staying because of him."

"Hmph! Stop pretending. You know this isn't what I'm talking about!" Seraphina uttered angrily.

Renee was stunned for a moment. She then understood what Seraphina meant.

"That's because there's something in Beach City I can't let go of. That's why I came back," Renee answered truthfully.

"What is it? Stefan?" Seraphina's glare was like a sharp knife. "You were kicked out by Stefan four years ago. Do you really think you can reclaim your spot now? You should know better than anyone that you don't deserve him!"

"That aside, even if I can't reclaim my spot, it won't be yours for the taking either..." Renee said.

"Shut up!" Seraphina was enraged by what Renee said.

With a single push, Seraphina flipped the barbecue grill over, sending the white-hot charcoal tumbling all over them...
