Stefan did not expect to find 300, 000 active users on this forum, which placed it in the top five most active groups on the entire website.
He foolishly thought that this was just a small interest group, but it seemed that they were as big as an army. It was no wonder a single live stream was able to put virtual-novel.net in the headlines.
Stefan continued scrolling down the page, his eyes completely focused on the screen.
[This is so sweet! Just look at them! Look at them!]
[Oh my god, my precious little Renee is looking at that bastard with such loving eyes!] 2
[They’re definitely the opposites attract trope! The cold tsundere CEO, Stefan Hunt, loves his wife just as much as virtual-novel.net does!]
The forum was incredibly active, and new threads containing old stories, photos, and theories would pop up every few minutes, all revolving around Stefan and Renee’s relationship.
This was the first time Stefan realized that virtual-novel.net actually had this many pictures with Renee. Moreover, virtual-novel.net noticed just how deeply in love with him virtual-novel.net appeared to be.
Out of all the posts, there was one that stood out from the rest with its astonishing amount of likes. It was a piece of fanfiction about them, written by someone with the ID name, ‘Everheart_Hunter’.
[Their first meeting was on a summer evening, as rain poured heavily from the skies. Everyone was busy finding shelter when their gazes met…]
Stefan was intrigued. He was about to give it a good read when virtual-novel.net was met with a 404 error message after clicking on the post. It seemed that the post had been deleted.
“Damn it!” He cursed under his breath, obviously wishing that virtual-novel.net could’ve seen just a little more about the story. 1
However, virtual-novel.net finally understood why there were so many active members within the forum. Their authors were just too imaginative and skilled in their writing. The moment you entered this fanbase, it was near impossible to get out.
Stefan did his best to keep cool as virtual-novel.net clicked away from the page. He was worried virtual-novel.net himself would become a fan of his relationship with Renee if virtual-novel.net continued reading on.
It wasn’t long before nighttime descended upon the city. Although Stefan had worked productively the entire day, virtual-novel.net felt an emptiness in his heart.
After pointlessly scrolling through his phone in the quiet office, Stefan stared off into space, seemingly deep in thought.
At the same time, Renee was reading a book on parenting when virtual-novel.net phone suddenly rang. Picking it up from virtual-novel.net couch, virtual-novel.net realized that it was a call from Stefan.
“I’ll be waiting for you at Rose Quartz Eatery,” the voice said coldly before hanging up abruptly, i
Listening to the dial tone, Renee was dumbfounded. “What’s his deal?”
This man had never called virtual-novel.net during the entirety of their marriage, he’d merely do it through his assistant, Elijah, and only if it was necessary. 1
‘Well, tonight’s a first.’ i
If this was before, virtual-novel.net would’ve squealed with excitement while hugging virtual-novel.net phone to virtual-novel.net chest. Then, she’d do virtual-novel.net makeup and dress nicely to meet him.
Now… virtual-novel.net just thought of it as a scam call. She just wanted to dismiss it as soon as virtual-novel.net could.
After finishing virtual-novel.net book, Renee proceeded to watch a documentary, then played around with some codes. 1
Soon, it was 10 PM, and virtual-novel.net intended to put on a facial mask before heading to bed.
“Are you here yet? I’ve been waiting for more than two hours.” Stefan sounded like virtual-novel.net was about to explode from rage.
Renee was speechless. ‘Is virtual-novel.net okay in the brain?*
‘I didn’t make virtual-novel.net wait. Why would virtual-novel.net wait for more than two hours anyway? Isn’t virtual-novel.net a CEO? When did virtual-novel.net get the luxury to wait for others?’
“Come here, I have something to tell you!” Stefan said before hanging up once more.
“Ugh! He’s just so…!” Renee groaned, not knowing what his deal was.
‘How did I not realize that my prince charming has a few screws loose before? He’s being so childish right now!’ 1
She first decided to ignore the man, but as the clock continued ticking, virtual-novel.net couldn’t help but imagine virtual-novel.net waiting in a cold, empty restaurant all alone.
She felt bad.
‘Oh whatever, I’ll just go check it out. The restaurant’s just a mile away anyway.’
With that, Renee headed out in virtual-novel.net cartoonish pajamas without any makeup nor hairdo.
It was already 10:30 PM. The restaurant was empty, except for the seat by the window. There was a handsome man sitting at the table, all alone.
He was currently looking out the window with eyes filled with melancholy. Watching virtual-novel.net from afar, Renee felt virtual-novel.net heart skip a beat. ‘Damn, just look at this man. Handsome… Elegant… What a shame that he’s a jerk.’
Taking a deep breath, the woman approached Stefan.
“What do you want, future ex-husband? Why’d you have to call me up at such a late hour?”
Stefan turned around and looked virtual-novel.net up and down. “Wearing pajamas to meet me? You sure let yourself go.”
“You’re going to be my ex-husband anyway, why would I have to restrict myself?” Renee sat down nonchalantly, making fun of herself. “Besides, I couldn’t make you stay even when I was on my best behavior. Why would I ever do something so pointless now?” “So you really did love me?” Stefan asked, his gaze focused entirely on Renee’s face.
