After Amelia left, Ren punched Fae's number. He really wanted to talk to the girl. It's been a month since he met his wife in person. The last time was when Fae came to see him here at his penthouse and declared that she wanted a divorce.

Ren admitted his words back then was too harsh. Fae asked about his health and whether he could sleep well, but he arrogantly said that he had lived well for 30 years before Fae came into his life.

He realized that his words must have made Fae feel that she was not important. At that time, Ren thought that Fae would stay and come back to him, but now he realized that he didn't know his wife as well as he thought.

RING

RING

Until a dozen rings, Fae didn't pick up the phone at all. Ren frowned in surprise. Was Fae in a meeting so she couldn't pick up his calll?

[Call me when you're free.] He texted Fae's cell.

For two hours, Ren's text was not replied, and there was no incoming call from Fae. 

Did Fae really hate me so much that she didn't want to pick up phone calls from me anymore? Ren thought in puzzlement. 

'Did something happen to her?'

Ren started to get worried. He immediately took his coat and walked out of the penthouse. He called John briefly as he walked toward the elevator.

"Get the car. We're going to the St. Laurent Building."

RIIIIING

RIIIING

Fee opened one eye and perked up her ears when she heard the bell at the front door was ringing

Who dared to come and rang the bell? She was not expecting ny guest.

Fae tried to muster her memory and think. Who could it be?

To her knowledge, a 5-star hotel like St. Laurent had a very high level of privacy. The staff would not disturb the guests in the rooms, suites, let alone the penthouse in this way.

Were there guests coming? Could this be Mr. Rhionen's guest who came to visit, and they didn't know that Mischa had already left for Singapore?

Fae finally got out of bed and headed for the door. Her appearance was disheveled and her face looked pale. She saw that on the intercom screen a hotel staff was standing very politely, but her face looked worried.

What's going on?

Finally, she opened the door.

"What do you need?" she asked. Fae's face suddenly twitched when she saw that beside the staff was Ren who stood up straight and looked at her sharply. Fae frowned and asked her husband. "How do you know I'm here?"

"I always know where you are," said Ren.

He was lying. He could no longer track and tap Fee all the time, but if she talked to him on the phone for more than 30 seconds, he would be able to trace her location easily.

Earlier he had not been able to call Fae to find out where the girl was, but based on the reports he received, Mischa Rhionen moved to Almstad and now lived in the St. Laurent building. He only guessed that Mischa had something to do with Fae's moving away from her old flat.

It turned out that his bluff managed to discourage Fee. The girl did not expect, Ren was still able to find out her whereabouts. Why was it so hard for her to escape?

"Isn't this a private residence? Why do you allow random people to go up to this floor and come to the penthouse?" asked Fee, now directing her words to the hotel staff.

The woman seemed to shrink in fear. She knew her actions violated the residents' privacy, but she didn't dare refuse this person's request.

"Forgive me, Miss ... But ... but, I cannot possibly refuse His Highness Prince Renald," she said in a very apologetic voice.

Ahh ...

Fae just realized that Ren did not hide his identity as usual, like when he met her at Magnolia Café. In the past, Ren would wear casual clothes and a sports cap to look like a student, but now he looked so elegant with his luxurious and formal dark clothes.

Of course, everyone at this hotel recognized him as Prince Renald Hanenberg of Moravia!

Fae understood the staff's difficult position, and she was forced to nod. 

"Very well. I will receive this guest." 

She opened the door wider and ushered Ren in, while the staff excused herself.

"Why did you come here?" asked Fae, closing the door behind her.

Ren didn't answer immediately. He looked around the penthouse and nodded. "This place is not bad. No wonder you don't want to accept the place I offer you."

Fee didn't know that Ren intended to have her live in his penthouse, which was no less luxurious than this. The girl didn't even want to listen to his offer.

Fee bit her lip. "I'm only house-sitting this place while my boss is out of the country."

"Your boss? Mischa Rhionen?" asked Ren with a smile. "Is it proper for a woman who has a husband to live with another man?"

"I told you I want to divorce," said Fee. "I may not be able to arrange for divorce in Monaco as you wish, but I can arrange for it in Bucharest."

"Why Bucharest?" Ren gave Fee a sharp look.

Fae looked away. She couldn't help but stare at her husband just now. Why was Ren acting like this?

"Divorce in Romania is easier and cheaper. I can't afford a divorce in Monaco."

Ren walked over to Fee and was now right in front of her. Their bodies were almost touching.

"Why do you want to divorce me so badly, Honey?" asked Ren. His voice was no longer cold but sad. "Isn't our problem over? You're angry with me because I want us to postpone having children. You're not pregnant ... so now there's no problem."

Fee felt her heart pounding. She could feel Ren's scent from such a close distance.

Damnit, why was she so weak by her husband's charms?

Fee closed her eyes, not wanting to look at Ren's handsome face, which was so close from hers. Ren smiled at Fee's attitude. He could feel the Fae was slowly turning weak, and her heart pounding.

Ren touched Fee's chin lightly and then kissed her lips.

Dammit! Why am I even enjoying the kiss? Fee scolded herself.

"Don't you miss me?" asked Ren in a hoarse whisper that really made Fee wanted to fan her face. Why did it suddenly feel so hot in here?

If she could be honest, she really missed her husband. She truly loved this man, and their life together was actually quite happy. Ren was her only family in this world.

However, because of Ren's harsh stance on Fae's decision to have children, Fae felt that she had to choose, and she decided to choose her child. That's why she left Ren and always tried to avoid him.

Unfortunately, Ren didn't want to let her go.

"Uhm ... Ren ..." Fee gathered all her rationality to escape Ren's kiss and pushed her husband's body away from her.

Not successful. The man was too strong, and he didn't move an inch when Fee's tiny hands pushed against his chest.

"I miss you so much," said Ren earnestly. "What do you want for us to be together again, Fae? Do you want to spend the Christmas holidays alone?"

He looked closely at Fee.

Fee looked away. She couldn't bear to look Ren in those honey-colored eyes. She was afraid her secret would be exposed. She was worried that Ren could read her mind.

"Why don't you answer me?" asked Ren again. His voice sounded tired.

Fee looked up and finally saw her husband's face. There were dark circles around Ren's eyes. Unconsciously, Fee's right hand touched Ren's right eye with a worried expression. They had been separated for nearly two months. Did Ren experience severe insomnia again?

Ren closed his eyes as he felt Fae's fingers touch his face. He then touched Fee's hand with his and put it on his lips, then he kissed Fae's tiny hand.

Ren opened his eyes and looked at Fee. "Everything is so good between us, isn't it? So, why are you still acting like we have such a big problem? Are you hiding something from me?"

Fee flinched at Ren's words.

Ugh, did Ren suspect something?
