Chapter 1921
"You can't think like that." Quinton rested his hands on Renee's shoulders, and said dotingly, "Just let me handle things like this. You have to lead a happy life with Adie and Abby. I'll earn money, get revenge, and revive our family,"
"I can't let you do everything, that would be selfish. We should do this together!" Renee said agitatedly, her eyes watery. She was too impulsive. She had only thought about her happiness and had forgotten about her responsibilities. To live a good life, she needed to take revenge and rebuild her family.
"I'm the one at fault here. I brought this up just when you made up your mind to leave, and it feels like I'm guilt- tripping you. Listen to me-just go live on the island with the kids and stay away from all of these conflicts. The further you are from this place, the less affected you'll be by that heartless man!" Quinton regretted bringing up their family honor. He was reluctant to part with her, but he felt like he had broken Renee's wings by forcing reality down her throat.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
"Don't worry, Quinton. Don't you know me? If I don't agree with it, you wouldn't be able to guilt-trip me even if you wanted to." Renee took a deep breath, seemingly enlightened. "I'll talk to Adie. We'll return to Sun Island one day. but not now. I need to work with you to resolve everything in Beach City, then we can go back together. What do you think?"
"What's your plan?" Quinton was not happy that Renee had decided to stay. "I've been investigating the truth of our family's bankruptcy back then, and the families capable of such a thing aren't easy to deal with. If we want to go after them to revive our family, it'll take a long time... I don't know when you and the kids will be able to return to the island." The current Everheart family had neither power nor influence, and in its current state, there was no way it could shake the big families in Beach City, even with Carmine Pawnshop and the company Renee established with the Osborne family. Besides, they would make a lot of enemies, and it would become a very dangerous situation. He didn't want that for Renee and the kids.
"There's no rush to go back. Home is wherever we both are!" Renee clenched her fists and made up her mind." Stop trying to change my mind, Quinton. I know what I should do."
"But..." Quinton hesitated, not knowing what to say. He knew Renee had made up her mind, and he wouldn't be able to change it.
"Also, I noticed a slight issue today..." Renee changed the topic, her eyes gleaming.
Quinton frowned. "What issue?"
"You need a girlfriend!"
