Being straightforward, Francine was about to expose the truth when a cold voice came from behind them.

"You woke up so early today, Mother?" Stefan looked icy and dangerous, as if he were about to fly into a rage.

He seemed quite frightening.

Francine, despite her boldness, immediately became timid.

She pursed her lips and said, "Of course.

Renee might even take revenge on the Hunt family, given her temper.

Francine might never get to meet Adie and Abby.

In comparison, the current superficial peace was better despite there being some regrets.

Renee didn't stop them from taking Adie and Abby to Hunt Manor, either.

Maintaining the current situation was probably the best ending for Renee and Stefan.
