Renee looked up expectantly, but a look of disappointment and surprise soon filled her eyes.
“Christopher?”
Christopher had his back to the sun. He looked like Prince Charming from the novel. “This is quite
effective. Hurry up and use it. You don’t want any scars to form!”
“How did you know I…” Renee had an awkward expression on her face.
She was trying hard to hide the amount of pain she was in earlier. It wasn’t because she was mentally
strong, and it also wasn’t because her skin was too thick to feel any pain.
Instead, she just didn’t want to appear too insignificant next to Seraphina while everyone surrounded
her.
“I noticed your facial expression wasn’t natural earlier. I figured that you were probably burned too, but
I’m sure you have your reasons for not wanting it to be known,” Christopher said gently, like how an
older brother would. He made Renee feel very safe.
Renee sighed and laughed bitterly. Without realizing it, she was opening up to him.
“You were all so worried about Seraphina. I didn’t want to steal her limelight. Besides, I’m not the kind
of woman who’d cry over pain.” Years ago, when she lived in an environment full of love, she would
openly express her vulnerability.
However, over the years, and after numerous experiences, she’d gotten used to being tough. She’d
help herself feel better without needing a show of concern from others.
“Silly girl. Only babies who cry will get milk. If a girl is too tough, life gets very difficult…” Christopher sat
next to Renee. He was like a gentle autumn breeze. “Don’t think Seraphina is just a fierce girl. She’s
actually very smart. She knows how to show her vulnerable side, and she’s also good at expressing
her needs. That’s why we all spoil her rotten.”
“I can tell you all do spoil her rotten. In fact, I’m a little envious of her personality. She can find friends
wherever she goes. It’s too hard for me,” Renee said.
“Yeah. You’re very kind, but there’s always a feeling of distance. During the years you were married to
Stefan, we might have met very often, but we never got close. It’s such a shame, really.” Christopher,
who was the oldest in the group, was much more experienced and mature. Although he rarely spoke,
he was the best at judging a person’s character.
“You and Stefan are actually quite alike. You’re both very stubborn. Once you make up your mind, it’s
hard for you to change it. What a pity you two broke up…” Christopher could tell that neither Stefan nor
Renee had moved on from the other.
Renee didn’t say anything. Instead, she unscrewed the medicinal cream and silently smeared some of
it on her wound.
The cool sensation stung her wound a little.
Renee didn’t make a sound. Instead, she merely frowned.
“Ahh, didn’t I just tell you that only babies who cry can get milk? You really need to know how to show
your vulnerability,” Christopher said with a sigh.
He had never seen a woman as stubborn as Renee. She was clearly in a lot of pain, but she didn’t
even make a sound.
“Of course, this is how I protect myself.” After applying the medicinal cream to her wound, she stood
up. “Thank them for me. I’ll be making a move first.”
Christopher didn’t try to convince her to stay. “Are you sure you’ve given up on Stefan?”
“Didn’t I tell you that I did that a long time ago?”
“I bet you can tell that Seraphina’s feelings for Stefan aren’t purely platonic. She’s had a crush on him
for many years. Now that she’s returned, she won’t give up easily…” Christopher was the only one in
the group who’d discovered this secret.
Renee shrugged nonchalantly. “It has nothing to do with me. I wish her the best of luck.”
