Chapter 414
The two servants holding Renault felt the sudden dead weight. He collapsed onto the floor just like that. Not even the two servants could hold him up.
“Renault!”
“My dear!”
The Conerys were shocked. They all went up to him, pushed the servants away, and helped him up themselves.
They patted his back and massaged his philtrum. Someone went to grab a glass of warm water for him.
The entire family was in an anxious mess. Everyone was all over the place.
After a while, although everyone was exhausted, they managed to keep Renault from passing out.
Renault caught a breath of relief, but when he saw Andrius‘ disgust in his eyes, he immediately thought of Andrius‘ true identity.
“Uh… Uh…” His eyes rolled back and almost passed out again.
Andrius was speechless. He said emotionlessly, “Aren’t you a member of the Spec Ops Forces of the Southern Warzone? You’re so weak! Where are your guts? Can’t you look more alive? Stop passing out!”
He spoke with the utmost contempt.
Stella could not bear the insults. She wanted to reason with Andrius, but then again, Andrius‘ words somehow triggered Renault, and he managed to stay conscious.
“My dear…” Stella did not lash out at Andrius but chose to stay beside Renault. “How are you? What happened?”
Jane, however, was more concerned about Renault’s position in the Southern Warzone.
She had one last bit of hope that the servant was misinformed, so she asked, “Renault, the servant was talking nonsense just now. She said you were sent back from the military. Is it true?”
“I…” Renault had a sip of water to calm himself down. He looked complicated when he explained, “I saw the Wolf King at the event earlier. I was excited, but the Wolf King’s aura scared me, so… I
underperformed during the event and passed out.”
He had a subtle glance at Andrius when he explained.
Jane, Stella, and the others were stunned by his words and did not notice his little glance.
Rainbow, on the other hand, was present at the event and knew what exactly happened. She almost burst into laughter when she heard Renault. While she managed to hold her laughter back, her body twitched uncontrollably.
Passing out in front of the Wolf King was solid proof of underperforming.
Jane looked gloomy. She asked, “Then, how did the Spec Ops Forces react? Are you still with them?”
Renault knew that if he told them that he was expelled, everyone would abandon him and look down on him, so he did not reveal the disappointing fact at first. He had another glance at Andrius.
If Andrius gave him a chance, he could be reinstated any minute.
However, after what he did and said to Andrius, would he get a second chance?
He should be grateful that Andrius did not take his life. The thought put a bitter scowl on his face.
Andrius said with protruded lips, “You passed out in front of the Wolf King. It means you are weak, so it’s impossible for you to go back with them.”
Renault’s face turned pale.
“Andrius! Shut your dirty mouth! Keep quiet!”
“Andrius, you are jealous of him!”
“Since you came to our house, you have been cursing Grandmother and now Renault. What are you trying to do?!”
“Can you shut your piehole?!”
Alec, Stella, and the others scolded him, venting out their grievance at him after what he said.
Renault was shocked. He immediately revealed the truth and said, “I… I was expelled by the Spec Ops Forces…”
Right after his confession, Renault looked even more dispirited as if his soul had left his body.
