However, Charles knew Renata's ambition and tactics very well. He needed to prevent her from cheating on him. So, he had Jake investigate Nathaniel's background when he got into his car. Jake was capable. He quickly uncovered Nathaniel's entire history."He's a wealthy businessman. He's widowed with a son studying abroad."Charles sneered when he heard what Jake said. He patted his trousers lightly and gave an instruction to his assistant. "Call Nathaniel and tell him that Renata is my ex-wife and that I don't want her to remarry. Businessmen typically prioritize profits more than anything. He'll know what I mean."Jake felt this was inappropriate. Although he was Charles's assistant, he had also dealt with Renata quite a bit over the years. He considered her a good woman and a supportive wife. He knew that things wouldn't work out if Charles treated his ex-wife this harshly.Jake questioned him, "Don't you have a girlfriend?"I see you're quite attentive to Ms. Alisha. You
Renata sat in her office and reviewed the profiles of several top female celebrities. Then, she saw Alisha's picture.Her assistant, Keira, leaned in and whispered, "Ms. Alisha has connections, Ms. Renata. Keira mentioned she's the girlfriend of some important figure. They've been quite close recently, and she stands a good chance to marry him.""An important figure?" Renata scoffed internally.That must be Charles. She knew his ways all too well. This talk of rising was just a fleeting affair. She understood perfectly well that he wouldn't easily step into another marriage after finally being single. His second marriage would likely be reserved for a business advantage. In any case, she didn't have any interest in him anymore.Renata looked at the pictures several times. Finally, she said, "I prefer Blair Warner."Keira was surprised, but she complied.Renata was her direct superior and had an extremely close relationship with Gwynn. Renata held a significant position in the
"Also, stop calling me. We have nothing to do with each other anymore."…Renata hung up the phone and stepped out of the elevator. Charles was right outside. Alisha stood next to him. The two looked very much like a close couple."Hey, Renata," He called her name fondly.Tonight was a business engagement, and Renata wore a black professional dress. She looked both beautiful and capable. Seeing that the driver hadn’t arrived yet, she checked the time and made a call to him. Then, she looked at Charles and spoke softly but firmly, "If I remember correctly, our divorce procedures are finalized."Charles maintained a good attitude, "Let's talk, Renata."Alisha felt like an outsider. Despite her displeasure, she valued this endorsement opportunity greatly. So, she remained patient and obedient while she stood quietly by Charles's side. She waited for Mr. Chu to handle the situation for her.Renata wasn't having any of it. Now that she had Noah's strong backing, she didn't
" Charles and Alisha are the perfect couple." "Love exists in the entertainment industry, too.""Charles's engagement ring was a whopping eight carats."…At the end of May, news of Charles's second marriage spread worldwide. Naturally, Renata saw it. However, she was very calm about it. She had divorced him, and they had a fallout. So, they were no longer involved in each other's lives. Renata didn't offer her blessings, but she wouldn't get upset, either.She was busy with her own job as well as taking care of Daphne. She had already registered Daphne under her own surname, giving her the name of Daphne Gilmore. Renata planned that she would move to a villa with a lawn when Daphne grew a little older. She'd also let her daughter get a dog.Of course, there were also men trying to win Renata's heart. Setting aside the idea of finding a father figure for Daphne, Renata was actually a mature woman who was surrounded by younger men who were tall, handsome, and well-off.
"I do," Renata replied firmly. She repeated, "Yes, I like young men now. Why does it concern you, Charles? "We divorced a long time ago. We have nothing to do with each other's lives anymore. I didn't interfere when you dated Alisha. So, please don't interfere with my love life too.""Love life?" Charles sneered. "Do you love such a naive young man? Does he understand women's needs? Can he satisfy you in bed?""My private life is none of your business," Renata retorted. "Also, watch your tongue, Charles."…Renata couldn't be bothered with him. As far as she was concerned, they had a history. It was neither good nor bad, but it had all become a distant memory. Perhaps she occasionally reminisced about it, but she would never turn back. Otherwise, what was the point of coming to Brookesville?She turned and walked towards Darrell.It was night.The young man wore a pair of jeans and a simple black T-shirt, highlighting his tall and strong physique. They stood side by
All of a sudden, a loud bang could be heard! The car's hood was deeply dented. Renata and Darrell were in the car. They were forced to stop. Charles wielded a hammer in front of the car. He smashed the hood two more times with a grim expression. He walked over and opened the passenger door. Then, he pulled at Renata. "Get out."Renata's clothes were slightly disheveled, but her expression remained calm. She scolded him, "Are you out of your mind, Charles? We ended things a long time ago! You're about to get married, for Heaven's sake. Why are you haunting me like this?"If Darrel wasn't there, she would have undoubtedly said, "It's none of your business who I sleep with."Charles grabbed her arm and yanked her out. "You're my wife, Renata!""You're crazy," she retorted.…Renata kicked him, but Charles acted like a madman. The scene he had witnessed made his blood boil. If he hadn't come over, Renata would surely have had sex with Darrell. Judging by the way they were
Charles was doing it with Alisha, but the one on his mind was Renata.She was supposed to be his wife!In the dead of night, he drank two whole bottles of red wine and finally got half-drunk. He drove to Renata's villa while he was still drunk.When the guard refused to open the gate, he directly crashed through it. The night echoed with a loud bang.Charles was a man of high status and power. No one dared to stop him when he went mad.He had a grudge against Renata.He barged into her bedroom with a mix of anger and resentment in the middle of the night. Then, he dragged her out of bed. Worried that he might wake up Daphne, he took Renata to the bathroom. She was dressed only in a silk robe. Charles tore up her clothes and exposed her fair body completely. Renata was furious."Are you crazy, Charles? You're getting married, and I also have a boyfriend!"What you're doing is illegal trespassing and assault. You could go to prison for this."…Charles looked stern under the
Charles must have been drunk.On the other hand, he might just be too angry. Otherwise, how could he have said what he did next? He caressed Renata's cheek and spoke softly, "You must feel very satisfied right now. You must be thinking you’ve gotten your revenge on me."He shrugged and sneered. "You're overthinking it. I came here to see you and give you a wedding invitation. "Alisha and I are getting married. She's young, beautiful, obedient, and sensible. I couldn't be happier!"So, why would I cling to the past?"You're no longer young, and I certainly don't enjoy having a male doctor check my backside. I’m not crazy, Renata."…Renata lowered her eyes to hide her tears. "No matter how good she is, she won’t dare to control your debauchery, just like I didn’t in the past. We parted ways peacefully, Charles. There's no need for all this. "You said you came to give me an invitation. So, I’ll wish you and Alisha a long and happy life together."Renata took the whole thin
