Briar sprang out of her recliner as if she was facing a strong enemy and shouted fiercely. “What are youdoing here? Don’t you know that trespassing is illegal? I can call the police to arrest you, you know!”

“You want to call the police?”

Renee smirked. She took out her phone and dialed 9-1-1, and handed it to Briar. “Go on and ask thepolice to come so they can see how abusive you are.”

“When did I abuse anyone? As the mistress of this villa, I have the right to beat and scold myemployees at will! These people should be punished when they make mistakes.”

She raised her chin, emphasizing the word “mistress” with a sense of smugness.

The few servants who were beaten up from the torture cowered in a corner, not daring to say a word.

“The mistress of this villa?”

Renee sneered and asked in return, “How can you prove that? Is your name on the title deed?”

“If you can’t prove your ownership of this villa, the employment relationship between you and theservants will be non–existent. and your so–called punishment can easily be constituted as a crime. Aslong as they want to, they can file a lawsuit and send you to jail. A sentence of three to five years willnot be a problem.”

Renee’s casual remark, which could bring Briar big trouble, subdued the latter instantly.

Briar clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. “I am now pregnant with Stefan’s child. This villa willeventually be mine. Everything in the Hunt family will also be my son’s in the future. A few servants are

nothing!”

“Hah, you are being naive again. Miss Desrosiers.”

Renee looked at Briar as if she was an idiot and savagely poked her sore spot. “First, without myagreement, this villa will never be yours, as I own half of this property. Secondly, as long as you are notmarried to Stefan, your child will forever be illegitimate, and his right to become the heir of the Huntfamily will be uncertain.”

This villa was a bride price given to Renee by the Hunt family back then. She was supposed to be theonly owner of this villa, but she insisted on adding Stefan’s name to the title deed.

Though they were now divorced, she still had not transferred her ownership to Stefan. Therefore, shewas still, technically, the rightful owner of this villa.

“Shut up, you b*tch!”

Briar went crazy after hearing this and pounced on Renee. “You are just an abandoned woman. Howdare you gibber in front of me? So what if Stef and I are not married? Stef did not even want to touchyou. You don’t have the right to even have an illegitimate child!”

Renee grabbed Briar’s wrist and said coldly, “I don’t fight with you simply because I am too lazy. I’mwarning you: you better be kind to me, or don’t even think about joining the Hunt family. Even the thingin your belly won’t be invited, not to mention you!”

After saying that, she flung Briar’s hand away, causing the latter to stumbled and nearly fall.

“You!”

Briar was stunned by Renee’s cold and unyielding gaze.

This was the first time she realized that the woman standing in front of her was not as weak as sheappeared to be.

And when she thought about the fact that Stefan still had lingering feelings for Renee, she knew thatshe would not have any advantage when they had it head–to–head.

Therefore, she suppressed her urge to fight and said. “I know you hate me since I am the one who tookeverything away from you. You can beat or scold me if you want, but can you stop pestering Stef?Don’t you have your next target already? Though the Osborne family is not as powerful as the Huntfamily, they are still part of The Great Eight of Beach City. They are more than qualified for a personlike you.”

Renee was speechless. Briar and Stefan were incompatible in every way, save for the rather identicalcockiness they both

displayed.

She did not bother to say anything more and pointed to Lydia, “You, bring me upstairs.”

As the housekeeper of the villa, Lydia used to make things difficult for Renee under Francine’s order.

But now, Renee was a heaven–sent savior to her, so she would be more than glad to obey her.

Briar watched as the two went upstairs. There was nothing she could do, so she could only take it outon the other servants.

Lydia led Renee upstairs and said cautiously. “Ma’am, thank you very much for saving us. If you hadn’tappeared in time, we would have been tortured to death, we…”

“Stop it!” Renee swept a cold lance at Lydia. “I wasn’t trying to help you. Don’t get over yourself.”

The picture of how these servants drove her away and how they curried favor with Briar was still vividin her mind.

She was not the kind of forgiving person who repaid her grievance with virtue. She did so simplybecause these servants were

still useful to her.

Lydia knew that she had mistreated Renee in the past, so she did not dare to say anything more.

The two went to Renee’s old bedroom. When they opened the door, Renee saw that the room wastotally empty. There was not a single thing inside.

“Where is the baggage I left in this room?” Renee looked at Lydia and asked.

“Um… Lydia stammered. She was obviously afraid of something.
