Renee even told everyone about her attempted suicide.
“I swallowed sleeping pills because of this man, and I almost lost my life! But now he’s leaving me just
like that. I really don’t know what I did wrong…”
Renee sobbed uncontrobly, leaving Toph standing there, utterly bewildered and unsure of what to do.
Suddenly, someone forcefully dragged Toph away. He was stunned when he realized the person who
had pulled him out was Lena.
“Stop this nonsense, Renee!” Lena red at her. “Do you only find happiness in destroying him?”
Renee was taken aback, her eyes turning sinister.
Lena stepped forward to stand in front of Toph. She had coincidentally passed the cafe close to the
Thompson Group on her way to buy coffee. She had never expected to stumble upon this
confrontation.
“Renee, tell us how he treated you,” Lena said earnestly. “Speak honestly with your conscience. You
were ready to betray the Thompson Group for your own selfish desires, and now you’re threatening
him. I used to feel guilty about you, but now, I find it hard to sympathize.”
“Lena!” Renee seethed. “What are you doing here? Who do you think you are to say that? Don’t forget
that you were responsible for my mom’s death!”
“She brought it upon herself. It had nothing to do with me!”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join &

“You…” Renee’s anger boiled over. She snatched a ss from the table and hurled it at Lena.
Quick on her feet, Lena pushed Toph away, narrowly avoiding the ss as it shattered against the wall
with a jarring noise.
Renee then grabbed a shard from the floor and attempted to stab Lena.
The onlookers gasped and began to disperse, some mentioning their intention to call the police.
In the midst of the chaos, Lena took a step back and identally bumped into someone, who, in turn,
steadied her and grabbed Renee’s wrist.
Renee was taken aback, her face reddening with embarrassment. “Uncle…”
Nichs scolded her sharply, “Have you lost your mind?!”
He wrested the shard from her hand and pulled her aside. “What were you thinking?”
Renee nced at the three of them with a sinister smile. “Uncle, you sure seem to be taking her side!
Ha! Everyone’s protecting her, even you!”
Nichs’ expression grew grimmer. “Renee, you betrayed thepany, and now you’re attempting to
harm Lena and Toph! Shouldn’t I stand up for them if not for you?”
Renee revealed an enigmatic smile, her eyes filled with sarcasm. “Uncle, don’t you think you’re getting
a bit too close?”
“What are you implying?” Nichs clenched his fists, his forehead veins pulsing with anger.
Back in his days as a gangster, there was a rule against harming women, one that he had thought he’d
uphold for the rest of his life.
As he had grown older and faced the loss of his child, he hade to value life more and treasure the
people around him. However, he felt an overwhelming urge to break that rule at that moment.
