His Domineering Lover
Chapter 680

Hearing this, Renee's face immediately changed.

"I knew it! It's her!" Renee had thought Tracey was more of a suspect than Adela was.

Tracey had read Carmen's physical and knew she had a coronary, but Adela didn't.

Moreover, Adela was living happily with Edgar now. She probably didn't hate Carmen anymore. She was not the spiteful, stuck- up person she used to be, so she couldn't have done it. Tracey, however, was different. She hated Carmen so much that she might never let her go. Leo still didn't know what was going on. "Mom, are you sure? How do you know it's Tracey?"

"I know her voice. I'm pretty sure it's her." Carmen shook her head helplessly.

"I went to the Xia Residence before to get help. Tracey was there, so she knew the gambling thing." Renee was so angry that she could not calm down. "Forget it. Isn't Leo fine now? By the way, who is this gentleman?" Carmen didn't want to have anything to do with the Xia family again.

On one hand, they weren't able to go against the Xia family. On the other hand, she just wanted a quiet, normal life.

"Mom, let me introduce him to you. It's Rocco, my boyfriend. He's the one who helped Leo out. Without him, you wouldn't be able to see us again."

Renee was clearly in a better mood when she mentioned Rocco. Leo quickly stepped forward. "Mom, Rocco's so cool! He took out a check of five million without blinking. I like this brother-in-law!" Carmen looked Rocco up and down. He was hot and charming, like a prince. No wonder Renee was fascinated by him.

"Shut up! He's just your sister's boyfriend. He's not your brother-in-law yet! Also, didn't I warn you not to gamble again? You think you can get help every time you're in trouble?"

"Mom, I know I was wrong. Just forgive me."

"Hello, Auntie. I'm Rocco Hawkins." Rocco took a step forward and introduced himself. Carmen nodded.

"Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. You saved my family."

"Don't say that, Auntie. Renee is my girlfriend, and it's my duty to help her." Rocco said seriously.

"Five million is a lot. We don't have that kind of money yet, but don't worry, we'll pay you back." Carmen was not as vain as she used to be.

Rocco smiled. "It's fine. That's not a lot of money for me."

"Mom, he is the vice president of a multinational company. He doesn't care about money."

"Is that so?" Carmen didn't look as happy as Renee and Leo.

Her instincts told her that Rocco approached Renee for a reason.

He was a dreamboat, how could he fall for Renee? Besides, he gave her so much money after only knowing her for a few days!

On the surface, he looked gentle and harmless. But the more perfect he was, the less Carmen trusted him.

"Mom, why are you staring at him?" Renee noticed Carmen's odd reaction.

"I'm just too happy for you. Your boyfriend is awesome." Carmen was not happy at all, but she didn't show it.

She asked Rocco calmly, "Mr. Hawkins, I have a question. You are so excellent, so, what made you like Renee?"

Rocco looked into Carmen's meaningful eyes. This woman was much smarter than her children, and she was testing him. "Well, previously I went to Rome for a dinner party.

I happened to see Renee standing there alone.

"She caught my eyes and I invited her to dance. We talked as old friends for a long time.

"We spent the next few days together in Rome and then fell in love.

"Actually, I don't know why I like her. I just know it happens. Maybe it's the magic of love."

Rocco was so smart that his answer was flawless. Renee was full of joy when she heard this, but Carmen felt even stranger.

"Mom, Rocco came all the way from America to see me. He said he wanted to visit you last night, and he helped us out with the casino.

"Also, it was him who drove you here. He's been helping us, and he hasn't even taken a break."

"Relax. I know what you mean. I'm just curious about your boyfriend. That's what a mom does." Renee's mouth curved into a smile. "Mom, are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat."

"Oh, yes. By the way, since I'm fine, let's go home now."

"No. The doctor said you needed to stay in the hospital."

"That's what all the doctors say. I think I can get out of here now." "Then promise me you won't get emotional again." Renee said.

"I will only be happy when you and Leo are around." Carmen said gently, "I don't like hospitals. Let's leave here now."

"All right, all right. Leo, go check Mom out of the hospital."

"Got it."

"I'm gonna go get the car. I'll meet you out front." Rocco said with a smile.

Renee nodded. "Okay."

After Leo and Rocco left, Carmen pulled Renee's hand and asked, "Renee, do you believe him?"

"Mom, what's wrong with you? I love him and he loves me." Renee did not know why Carmen had an inexplicable hostility against Rocco.

"Renee, don't you think he is too good for you? He is a vice-president of a multinational company, what about you? You have nothing. Let me ask you, why do you like him?"
