Chapter 2997: Chapter 3006: Austin Harper Arrives
Renee heard that Adam Sinclair’s secretary had also called him, her eyes averted, and her left hand unconsciously touched her belly. When she realized what she was doing, she found her subconscious action laughable. She resolutely moved her hand away, placing it back on her thigh.
"If you knew everything, why did you still give me money?"
Austin Harper chuckled bitterly, "I don’t know why either, just think of me as a fool. Anyway, I still feel that you are the Sister Renee I knew."
After he finished speaking, his hands hidden by his side clenched into fists, trying hard to control his emotions, "Don’t think about the child anymore, it’s gone. Just consider it that you and this child were not meant to be."
After all, it was his own child, only he knew how heartbroken he was when he uttered those words. From the moment he knew the child was gone, his heart was in so much pain it was almost numb. He didn’t know how he convinced himself not to think about it.
"This 750 thousand is my entire savings. Originally, I planned to give you that apartment but I sold it, and even took some money from my mom..."
To be precise, he stole a valuable jade necklace from his mom to sell.
Because of this, he received a slap.
Their family situation was not good either, his grandpa’s issues hadn’t been resolved, and the household was in chaos. At this time, he stole from his family and sold the item for money. After getting caught, he lied to his mom saying he lost a considerable sum gambling and needed to fill the gap... In anger, his grandma fainted on the spot, and his mom was not any better, losing control for the first time and slapping him, crying and telling him to get out.
The accusing voices of his disappointed family still echoed in his ears, so Austin dared not dwell on them, trying to divert his attention, pulling his lips up in a smile, "Just use it, don’t worry about paying me back."
After all Renee had been through, in the depths of despair, it was Austin who reached out to her, and to say she was not moved would be false.
Yet, aside from being moved, that was all. She didn’t regret her past actions because of it, "Thank you."
Although Austin said he had raised enough money for her, and hoped to believe she was still the old Renee, hoping to believe doesn’t equal believing. After Renee, with a face full of gratitude, thanked him, he spoke with complex eyes, "Sister Renee, I don’t know what you want to get from Adam Sinclair, but I have to advise you to turn back. Don’t keep getting tangled up with him. He already has someone he likes now. I’ve seen that star, and I’ve seen how they interact. Honestly, Sister Renee, I’m not trying to bring you down. There’s no room for a third person between them. I can tell that Adam Sinclair genuinely likes that star. Don’t keep holding onto the fact that Adam used to like you."
Back then, they were just teenagers, and teenage boys are just clumsy novices in love.
He knew that back then Adam had liked Renee.
But so much time had passed, so why did Sister Renee hold on so tightly to that affection?
To put it bluntly, when Adam liked her back then, she didn’t cherish it. Now, turning back and insisting on retaining it, how many people in the world would stand there waiting for you to turn back and hold on?
Moreover, it was just a naive, youthful crush at that age.
Renee had been slapped in the face many times today, and didn’t expect that at the one moment when her mood was slightly better, Austin would unexpectedly slap her in the face again.
