Chapter 126

“What do you think two men might be up to if they’re staying in the same hotel room?” Someone said

teasingly, and the group started laughing again.

This ‘rumor‘ regarding Stefan and Mr. Y had actually started out as a funny little insult within the

industry. However, a series of coincidences made it sound like it was true.

“Besides, I heard that Mr. Hunt didn’t divorce his wife because he was cheating with another woman.

That ‘mistress‘ was actually a paid actor, hired by Mr. Hunt and Mr. Y…”

“No way!”

Renee was dumbfounded. She immediately recalled her interactions with the man. The way he avoided

women, how there were never any scandals involving him, and how he didn’t smile often around her…

‘It does feel like there’s some truth in this rumor, but if he really was gay, why did he… do that to me the

other night?‘ Renee felt immensely confused, and opened up Google on her phone.

There were so many people around that Renee was squeezed out of the crowd once the search results

appeared. Unfortunately, she accidentally stepped on someone’s foot as she stumbled around, and her

phone fell out of her hands.

“I’m sorry!” Renee instinctively tried to pick her phone up, but was having a hard time bending down

due to her pregnancy.

The person whose foot she had stepped on reached down to pick up her phone, then handed it

to her in a gentlemanly manner.

“Here you go,” the man said dismissively. As he passed her the phone, however, his gaze incidentally

fell on the screen. His eyes widened slightly, gleaming with interest.

“Thank you!” Renee awkwardly responded, figuring that she should run away before she embarrassed

herself any further.

Despite wearing masks, the moment their eyes met, the two froze in shock.

“It’s you!”

‘It’s you!”

Both of them exclaimed at the same time.

“Julian, what a surprise! What’s an idol like you doing here?” Renee smiled, her eyes giving away just

how happy she was to meet him.

but “It’s an honor that you still remember me.” Julian continued speaking in a dismissive tone, his cold

eyes had visibly softened.

“What are you even saying? Of course I remember you! You’re one of the very few people who are

able to tie with me in a game! I’m still waiting for a rematch, you know?” Renee said as she stared into

the man’s eyes, her heart fluttering slightly.

The man’s eyes were similar to Stefan’s, but he seemed more tired in comparison. Moreover, there

was also a tiny mole next to his eyebrow. If it weren’t for that, Renee would have accidentally mistook

him for Stefan, and she wouldn’t even know how she’d react if Stefan had seen the contents on her

phone.

Meanwhile, the people behind her were still passionately discussing the relationship between Stefan

and the mysterious Mr. Y. “I’m telling you all, they really are dating! Don’t believe me?

Just go

to Lux Hotel and wait a little! You’d find shocking news for sure!”

Although the suggestion was made, nobody had the courage to take the risk. After all, it was simply

foolish to wait around the famous Mr. Hunt’s hotel.

However, Renee was brave enough to do it. She simply couldn’t believe that Stefan was gay. Hence,

out of curiosity, and to obtain closure for her four–year marriage, she decided that she wanted to

investigate.

“I still have some things to settle, Julian. We can talk later!” Renee said as she left the crowd, heading

towards the elevator to go to the suites within the hotel.

Julian followed behind her calmly, teasing her with a sly smirk. “Catching a paramour in the act is too

much work for just one lady, you know? Why don’t I come along?”

“P–Paramour?” Renee found the word choice slightly odd.

“Isn’t your husband’s male partner considered a paramour?” Julian asked casually as he entered the

elevator. He actually looked more excited than Renee to do this
