My Killing President novel Chapter 701

After Renee An was discharged, she went back to her own home.

The day she was discharged, Ralphy did not go to the hospital. However, Waynie, Teneria and even Annabelle went.

Renee An still wasn't in the best mood and Sky An and Claudia Yun were furious.

It didn't matter what excuse Waynie and Teneria gave. Ralphy had completely roused their anger.

When Ralphy came back in the night, Waynie and Teneria were waiting for him in the living room.

"I'm back!"

Waynie and Teneria looked at him and said nothing. However, the parents were showing an infuriated face.

When Ralphy noticed that, he walked towards them, "Dad, mom, what's wrong?"

"Renee was discharged today. Why didn't you go?"

The moment Ralphy heard that, he averted his gaze diffidently, "I have a lot of meetings in the company today…"

"Can that be more important Renee An? Ralphy, with you acting like this, what do you think Renee's parents would think of you?"

Ralphy simply kept his silent and didn't say anything.

The man knew but he didn't want to rile further conflict.

Since Renee An had no intention to see him, then he should just disappear from her side.

"Can't you make up your priorities? I don't care what happened between you and Renee, you must get her back from the An family!" After saying that, Teneria simply went back his room.

All these while, Teneria had been giving his son his own space and respect. The father was always gentle but this is the first time he gave a direct order.

In another word, now that he was infuriated, no one dared to say anything.

Waynie simply glanced at Ralphy and also followed her husband upstairs.

Ralphy stood in the same spot for quite some time. He didn't say anything and walked upstairs afterward.

He opened the door to his room.

Previously, whenever he went back, he would see that cheerful woman welcoming him. But today, the room seemed extra huge and empty.

Ralphy switched on the wall lights and walked inside. The man showed no emotion on his face and no one could tell what he was thinking.

Whenever he came in the room in the past, he would always think of reasons to hide in his study room. However, now the man was sitting inside and he just couldn't get used to it. He didn't know what to do.

In the end, he stood up and went to the study room.

Only when he was inside that familiar space, his restless heart could calm down.

This time round, there was nothing he could distract himself with. The man simply stood in front of the window and looked outside into the distance.

The man's figure was tall and the shadow behind him was long and lonely. What was everything for…?

After staying home for a few days, Renee An had completely healed.

But she was troubled that her mother kept probing about what happened between her and Ralphy.

"Renee, can you tell mom what happened?" Renee An couldn't even remember how many times she heard that question.

She wasn't a kid anymore and she wouldn't be complaining something like that to them and expecting her parents to solve her problem.

Probably, in the deepest side of a heart, she didn't want that to happen between her and Ralphy.

Even if she was greatly troubled, sorrowful and hurt, the woman would simply bear with it herself. Probably doing something to vent her emotion.

"It really nothing!"

"Nothing? Do you see your mother as a three year old? I have also experienced that and I have seen and heard more than you. Do you think I can't tell that the two of you had a huge conflict?" Claudia Yun said. The mother wasn't a difficult person that finds fault. However, like any other mother, she was defensive towards her own daughter.

Renee An sat rigidly as the mother was talking. The daughter wasn't showing any expression.

When Claudia Yun saw that Renee An wasn't speaking, she frowned, "Did he do anything that betrays your marriage?"

Renee An was stunned.

Was the mother so experienced or she simply made a good guess?

When Claudia Yun saw her expression, she frowned, "Really!?"

"Sigh, no. He didn't!" Renee An continued, "Mum, can you stop asking? It isn't like what you think. I am tired, please leave me alone..."

"Renee…"

"All right now mum, I understand and I will handle it. Please just give me some time!" After saying that, Renee An climbed down from the bed and shoved her mother out the door. After shutting the door, she could finally breathed a relief.

"This child…" Claudia Yun shook her head helplessly outside the door as she left.

After her footsteps disappeared in the corridor, Renee An was relieved.

She walked back into her into room and didn't know what to do.

Actually, she was fine if she didn't see Ralphy. The moment she saw him, she would be riled as she recalled the days she was deceived.

The woman had loved him so purely and committedly. But she was just a fool in his eyes!

Otherwise, how could she not notice something so obvious!?

Renee An walked towards the balcony. The weather was sunny and cloudless, a complete opposite from what she was feeling.

Even if she hated the man very much and was filled with resentment. There were times that she wondered if he did feel any guilt, or if he even had the slightest feelings towards her…

However, whenever she thought about that, she would deny it immediately!

Renee An, give it up!

He had never liked you. If he did, even just for the tiniest bit, things wouldn't have turned out like this.

Renee An drew a deep breath and tried to stop herself from thinking further about that matter. She decided to go along with the flow.

For the next few days, Renee An had been staying at home. She hardly even go out from her room and that made her parents worry.

In the end, the mother asked for Jerry Kuang's help.

Renee An would always listen to his cousin and the parents were hopeful that he could give her some advice and comfort.

……

In a coffee house.

Jerry Kuang crossed his legs and sipped on his coffee elegantly. Renee An was showing a disinterested expression, stirring her coffee from time to time, "Why are you looking for me?"

"Nothing special~"

Renee An frowned and stared at Jerry Kuang, "If it's nothing, why are you asking me out?"

"It's not me but your mother. She is worried about you and she asked me to bring you out to take a breather!"

When Renee An heard that, she understood immediately. The woman sighed helplessly.

"A quarrel?" Since they were out, Jerry Kuang asked perfunctorily.

"We didn't!" Renee An said. Wasn't it just humiliating if she were to admit that to someone else?

Jerry Kuang simply smiled, "Maybe I can help you. After all, I can give you advice based on a man's point of view!"

Jerry Kuang was a shrewd businessman indeed. Just one sentence and he could grab her attention.

Renee An's eyes flickered. She was tempted to tell him.

The woman lifted the coffee and didn't know what to say.

"Did he have other women outside?" Jerry Kuang said.

Renee An looked at Jerry Kuang with a surprised gaze. Did she show it over her face or something?

If not, why was everyone asking her if Ralphy was cheating?

"Why are you guessing that?" Renee An asked curiously.

Jerry Kuang simply smiled elegantly, "The only thing a woman finds hard to forgive a man would be them cheating. Do you even need a logical explanation for that?"

Renee An, "…"

"Not really…He didn't." Renee An shook her head.

"Oh? Then?" Jerry Kuang raised an eyebrow and asked. The man's curiosity was roused.

He wasn't a gossiper but he enjoyed it whenever he could get a hold of other people's weakness. That would give him a sense of achievement.

Renee An continued to drink her coffee and she found it difficult to share, "It was me… I accidentally found out something in his past!"

"What is it?"

"That he used to like someone very much!"

"That is just normal. Every man has someone they like!"

"But… He liked this particular woman for more than ten years!" Renee An said.

When Jerry Kuang heard that, he was even more curious.

They were in the same business industry. Although he didn't associate much with Ralphy, he had reported news about him. The man would bounce from woman to woman but he never stayed for long in a relationship.

Now that Jerry Kuang heard such a huge news, he was surprised.

"Oh? Really? Who was that? I didn't know!" It was rare to be Jerry Kuang to be so interested.

Renee An looked at him, "You shouldn't care about the other party!"

When Jerry Kuang heard that, his imagination ran wild, "So it seems that I know her!"

Renee An felt that she had slowly walked into his trap!

"No, you wouldn't know her!"

"I know that you will always get nervous whenever you lie!"

Renee An, "……"

"More than ten years…" As Jerry Kuang thought about that, he examined Renee An's expression closely. She was showing great nervousness and kept diverting her attention by drinking coffee.

"Both of us knew about her and we couldn't say…" At that time, his eyebrows furrowed deeply, "Could it be…" When the words came to his mind, he was shocked. The man simply looked at Renee An with widened eyes.

Renee An lifted her coffee again to hide her nervousness, "Stop making wild guesses!"

The more she said that, the more Jerry Kuang was assured by his answer.

More than ten years, it could only be her…

The man finally understood why Renee An couldn't accept it.

"Does Alistair know about that?" Jerry Kuang asked.

Renee An almost choke on her coffee. She hadn't expected Jerry Kuang to get the right guess at first try.

If she were to continue to deny it, it would be just tasteless.

In the end, she nodded slowly.

Jerry Kuang was just shocked.

"And he didn't completely destroy him?"

Renee An, "……"

"Actually, she isn't the real daughter of the Xia family!" Renee An said softly.

Jerry Kuang changed his sitting position. It was beyond the man's wildest dream that he could gather such a bomb drop by inviting his cousin out.

Regrettably, he couldn't spread the news. Otherwise, Alistair would deface him!

"Umm, Alistair knew?" Jerry Kuang asked.

"I think so." Renee An said. She didn't get a word of confirmation from him but her intuition told her that he knew.

Jerry Kuang massaged his forehead. He hadn't expected such a complicated situation.
