Chapter 46
Chapter 46
Stefan and Renee both went on stage. Under the dazzling light, they looked like a match made in heaven.
The host discussed the issues between her and Stefan as the crowd cheered for them. Renee's sharp gaze swept through the crowd as she tried to find the problem.
However, everyone seemed normal, and no one appeared suspicious.
'Did I mishear it? Or is that a prank?' she thought to herself.
At this moment, she heard the host say, "Let us congratulate Mr. Hunt for successfully auctioning off the ring for fifteen million dollars, and we will have our presenter hand the ring to him."
Stefan was gracefully presented with the display box containing the diamond ring by the tall and stunning presenter in a white gown.
"Let's have Mr. Hunt put the diamond ring on his wife's finger again. We are all here gathered around to witness the consistent and beautiful love between Mr. and Mrs. Hunt!"
The host had unexpectedly become a wedding host, as it seemed he was hosting Stefan and Renee's wedding.
The mood grew lively as the crowd became enthused, as though they were attending the wedding. The amount of excitement was identical to their actual wedding four years ago.
Stefan's face was originally frigid as he maintained his poker face with no emotions. After all, he had just wasted fifteen million dollars on something that had once belonged to him!
But since the host had called him out for the sake of everyone, he cooperated and said, "I'm grateful that everyone is here today to witness the love I have for my wife. I think the best place this ring belongs is on my wife's finger."
With that, he held the ring and tried to slide it onto her finger.
"Hahaha!"
Renee snorted quietly behind her smile and stood stiffly as uneasiness flooded her. (1)
"Is this necessary?" she wondered to herself.
She didn't reach out her hand. She smiled awkwardly and said through gritted teeth, "I think it's not necessary."
"It is necessary. How am I supposed to keep you with me without the ring?"
Stefan was a natural flirt and the living embodiment of shamelessness.
Hearing this, the audience became even more excited.
Renee didn't have an option. She could only stretch out her hesitant hand and say, "Mr. Hunt, do the honors of keeping me with you."
'Let's see who's awkward now!' she thought to herself.
After all, it wasn't a huge matter since she could take it off afterward.
Stefan gracefully held her hand and gently slipped it on her finger. The sight was romantic as if it were from a movie.
It was also at this moment that Renee's sharp gaze noticed something odd about the presenter holding the display
box.
"Watch out!"

Renee pulled Stefan behind her without hesitation as she saw the woman pulling a tiny revolver from her gown. Her movements were quick, and she knocked the gun off the woman's hand with a kick.
But even so, she wasn't as quick as a bullet.
Bang!
Renee's arm was shot, and blood poured out of her wound.
"Ahhhh! Murder!"
The scene turned chaotic as people were running everywhere.
"How dare you ruin my plan!"
The lady kicked to the ground and spoke in a man's voice. When he glared at Renee, his eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he whipped out another gun.
"Stefan, you'll die here today! This is the end for the Hunt family!"
At the same moment, the other three hosts charged at them with fury. The situation was dire!
"You should go now. They're here for you!" Renee shielded Stefan behind her as she urged him coldly.
"You're hurt!" Stefan exclaimed, remaining still.
His whole attention was fixed on the gushing wound on her arm. The crimson-flowing blood was the same as what had flowed from Tristan's chest three months ago!
Stefan was instantly repulsed, and his head began to spin before he lost his balance and fell to the ground.
He heard more gunshots, and a bullet seemed to strike Renee again in his foggy vision.
"Renee!"
He struggled to get up, but eventually, his vision turned dark, and he lost all consciousness. (2)
