*RENEE*

*You're such a prude,we've been together for more than a year yet you won't let me touch you.You don't have the right to blame me for having an affair with your sister!*

Those words reverberated in my head over and over again.

I had been with Andrew King for almost a year.Our union had started off as a blind date arranged by my parents.

My parents badly wanted to be connected to the King family,the wealthiest and most powerful family in Chicago.

I had found Andrew likable but I really didn't feel that deep spontaneous love for him but my parents had warned me that I must be with him and I must get married to him.We had been engaged and were to be married soon,just for me to walk in on him having sex with my sister.

Granted,I had never done more with Andrew other than kissing but I felt he understood that I had wanted to wait until marriage.I genuinely felt that maybe then,I would fall deeply for him.

Even if I didn't love him,his betrayal still hurt a great deal and he had the nerves to tell me to overlook what I saw.

He fucking had the nerves to tell me to think of his affair as nothing.

I might not be a perfect woman but I knew my worth.I had a great self-esteem and would never settle for less.

I had bluntly told Andrew that it was over between us.I didn't want to have anything to do with him ever again.

But the pain of the break up was still very fresh in my heart.Especially because I felt that Andrew was going to save me from the Hudsons.

I leaned against the window,devastatingly.I was in a cab when I caught sight of a club.

I sat up and quickly told the driver to pull over.I just wanted to distract myself.Do anything to get over this pain.

I hurried up to the entrance but I was stopped by two bouncers.

"The club's having a mask party tonight.Everyone has to be on masks."They informed me.

Sighing,I bought a mask by the side,put it on and walked into the club.

I immediately went to the counter where I sat and ordered some alcoholic drinks.

I downed bottles after bottles,wanting to drink my sorrows away.

Vaguely,I noticed a man sitting beside me.

He was also on a mask and he was elegantly sipping his glass of wine.

My alcohol-filled senses took notice of how gorgeous he looked in his suit.I instantly had a feeling that he must have a very handsome face.

As I continued to gush over him,I suddenly longed to be in a man's arms.

In all my twenty-two years of life,this was the most I had craved intimacy.

Without thinking twice,not that I would have been able to thick twice in my alcohol filled brain,I got off my chair and staggered closer to him.

"Hello there."I purred."Wanna spend the night with me?"

The man only stared at me for a second and to my surprise,he nodded.

*****************

Few minutes later found us walking into an hotel room.

As the man turned on the light,I closed the distance between us,stood on my toes and kissed him.He wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed me back, passionately.

As he took nibbles after nibbles of my lips,I gasped.

"Should…should we take our masks off?"I stuttered.

I had never done this before,I didn't know if I’d like to leave my mask on or off.

The man moved back a bit and took my mask off.

I could see his eyes dilate behind his mask.

I expected him to take off his mask too but he suddenly asked.

"What are you doing here?"

I frowned, confused.

Haven't we already established why we were both here?

"Are you always spreading your legs for every guy at the bar?" The man lashed out at me again.

I felt sure this man must be insane; what right did he have to judge me?

I glanced at his abs, admitting a sheer desire between my thighs as I remembered the hardness against me few seconds ago. I wanted him. It was a feeling Andrew had never sparked in me,but that wasn't a reason for him to insult me!

I didn't understand what I had gotten myself into!

“What about you?!Don’t you stick your dick out for every woman at the bar? You think you're a man, so you think you're noble?!" My desire vanished completely; how had I encountered such a chauvinistic man?!

I thought I’d better leave.

"I'll book you a ride. Leave as soon as it gets here!" the man announced as he opened his ride-hailing app.

I didn't refuse; I immediately left the room. He owed me the fare for insulting me! I was so angry I forgot to demand an apology!

***********

*MARCELO*

I stood by the window as I watched Renee Hudson get into the cab I had booked.

Thank Goodness I had removed her mask.

I almost had sex with my cousin's fiancee.I had been furious earlier and had thought that she might have planned to seduce me.

But I knew that couldn't be the case.She didn't know that it was me.And I was glad I didn't take off my mask.Else,she would have discovered my secret.

I hoped to never see her again. At that moment, my phone rang, and the butler's voice came through the receiver.

"Master, your mother is planning on getting you a wife."

I shut my eyes,briefly.Doesn’t that woman ever get tired of trying to get me married?

“Pay no mind to her.”I snapped and hung up.

    *RENEE*In the evening,I couldn't bear being in my room any longer so I decided to take a tour around the house.Afterall,I’d be living here so it was best I get familiar with the environment.I realized that the house was huge and more complex than I thought.I felt so relieved when I could finally locate the kitchen.I was staving.I had not eaten all day.I quickly opened the refrigerator and found some fruits.I took them out and also a bottle of yogurt.Hearing loud and powerful food steps,I turned around;I was startled when I saw a man striding into the kitchen.I gulped,taking in his physique.He was so tall and muscular.And his face,I never thought anyone could look so handsome.He was breathtaking.He stopped on his tracks and let out."You're not one of the maids."And then I saw his eyes widened,he looked shocked to see me.Those eyes suddenly looked familiar.And his raspy voice too."What are you doing here?"I didn't know who to think of this man as.He was dressed,casually.Was

    Meanwhile, insider revelations unveiled that Light's grand show encountered two unforeseen incidents.The original jewelry designer, Vivian, and the pianist, Jay, both unexpectedly breached their contracts, reasons unknown.Shortly thereafter, it came to light that the remarkable pianist who concluded Light's show was a woman previously unknown in the piano world.Photos depicted her playing in a simple chiffon shirt and casual pants, her long black hair casually tied back.Remarkably, she hadn't undergone a wardrobe change or applied any makeup.Yet her profile radiated stunning beauty.Further investigation unveiled her identity as Renee, Light's head stylist!A stylist stepping in as a pianist?This was unheard of!Speculation arose about the lavish treatment Renee received from Light, with some guessing that it might be related to the collector's jewels.However, Light's executives maintained silence, offering

    From a distance,Renee locked eyes with Jay and defiantly raised her chin in response to his displeased expression.Did he believe that the show would inevitably fail due to his and Vivian’s scheme?Just because he refused to play the piano, he thought that no one else would be able to?Jay, like a thwarted clown, made a hasty retreat.Jonah excused himself and left to deal with the press and media.Renee discreetly pulled Freddy away from the group, giving him a brief rundown of Vivian’s and Jay's violation of their contract.In a hushed tone, she gave him clear instructions. "Expose their violation of the contract to the media."Just paying a breach of contract fee was letting them off too easily!“No problem!" Freddy immediately agreed. His curiosity got the better of him and he asked, "Boss, do they have a grudge against you? Did you steal their business?"“Um...No, just do as I say."Sh

    As she placed a necklace on the model, Renee chuckled and reassured him, "Don't worry, these are my friend's collections. I am borrowing them for the time being."“I know Freddy well, and he's not that rich." Jonah's tone was still very cautious and wary.“It's not Freddy, it's another friend of mine."Jonah stared at her, feeling numb.Why couldn't he have such a wealthy friend?“Should we arrange for more security?" It suddenly occurred to Jonah that having such priceless jewels in one place could make them vulnerable to robbery."Security has already been arranged outside the venue,"Renee informed him.There were enough cameras inside the venue, and they covered every angle.Renee had spent a huge amount of money on these jewels, so it was only natural for her to want to protect them.Despite not being new, these jewels were timeless works of art from different time periods and private collections, with limited availability and more alluring than the newest designs from popular bra

    Vivian froze in shock, her eyes widening.Paul caught the excitement and desire in her shocked expression.His smile turned triumphant. "It seems you do!Everyone knows Sebastian loved you dearly since childhood and before his death, but the one you've always been drawn to is Marcelo."Vivian’s expression changed slightly, her fists clenched by her side as she fought to maintain her composure.She had known for a long time that Sebastian was in love with her.And she had selfishly gotten into a relationship with him before his death so she could be close to Marcelo.She had did all she could to make Sebastian believe that she actually loved him while deep down,she was hoping to get noticed by Marcelo.When Vivian replied, her voice was very serious. "Mr King, Marcelo is already married. I have no intention of interfering in their relationship."“What if I tell you that I want you to become my grand-daughter-in-law?"“You...Why..."Vivian was too shocked to speak.Initially, she struggle

    Pulling her luggage,Renee noticed Marcelo following her. "Are you driving me to the airport?" she asked.“It's on my way,"He replied, taking a seat in the back and instructing the driver to start the car.Renee pondered the route. The airport was near the suburbs. Where could he be going that was on the way?She turned to him. "Don't you have work today?" Her tone carried a hint of curiosity towards Marcelo, who seemed unusually idle that morning.With a relaxed demeanor,Marcelo replied, "Day off."Renee shot him a doubtful look.Was the KM Group really performing so poorly that its CEO could afford to take so many days off? She thought to herself.Catching her skeptical glance,Marcelo gently tapped Renee’s forehead. "What's that look for?" he asked.He suspected that he was crazy to skip work just because she was leaving the country.Renee, rubbing her forehead, shot him a slightly aggrieved glare. But she didn't call him out on his apparent mood. Reaching the airport, she suppressed

    Marcelo, however, remained stoic, feigning sleep as he leaned back. Secretly, he was acutely aware of every single touch and he tried his best to act unaffected.Renee, in her mind, didn't think she was entirely wrong for leaving without consulting Marcelo. Firstly, her hasty exit was understandable given her mood. Secondly, she pondered that Marcelo might have preferred her to leave so he could stay longer at Vivian’s party.The real issue was her abrupt return, awkwardly asking if he was leaving as well.Had he chosen to stay, perhaps she would be the one upset now.But Marcelo’s immediate departure, souring Vivian’s mood,really pleased Renee. Happy with this outcome, she felt inclined to placate him.As the Phantom rolled to a stop at the main porch of the house, Marcelo exited the car first, with Renee following closely behind.The servants had already opened the door, awaiting the arrival of their master and his wife. "Marcelo, wait!" Renee called out.As Marcelo was about to ste

    Vivian hurried over to Alma’s side, not ready to let Renee off easily.She hissed, "Miss Hudson! This whole thing involves Alma, Miss Curtis, and Quincy. Isn't it inappropriate for you to interfere? You were pretty tough on Alma just now. Don't you owe her an apology?"Renee couldn't suppress a chuckle at Vivian’s indignant tone.Even with her sarcastic edge, her beauty was undeniable.“You're wrong about one thing, Miss Lambert. Sarah and Quincy have nothing to do with each other right now." She paused, then added, "And as for apologizing? I've made my move. Do you really think I plan to say sorry?"“Renee, you are going too far!" Alma snapped back, her face turning red with anger.She felt braver now that the immediate threat was gone.“Miss Watts, I was talking to Miss Lambert. Isn't it inappropriate for you to interfere?" Renee threw Vivian’s own words back at Alma before turning to Vivian. "What do you think, Miss Lambert?"Alma was at a loss for words.Vivian nervously bit her l

    With a detached smile,Renee resumed the game.The crowd's eyes turned to her, expecting to see anger or sadness, maybe even jealousy. But her expression showed none of these emotions, leaving them somewhat disappointed. Then something odd happened.Ever since Marcelo started advising Vivian, Renee, who had been on a winning streak, began to lose. And she was only losing to Vivian. It was almost as if she was deliberately playing into Vivian’s hands, sending her chips her way.“Miss Hudson seems to have run out of luck," someone commented.Vivian, clearly pleased, surveyed the chips she had won from Renee. "I win again," she declared.“Miss, you're running low on chips," the chip attendant reminded Renee.Everyone at the table watched Renee, almost gloating, waiting for her to show embarrassment at not having enough money.But Renee, under their watchful gaze, did something unexpected. She reached out her right hand towards Marcelo and tilted her chin up slightly. "Mr. King, I'm out of

    “Hmm, it looks like you are no longer sleepy. Fine, I'll take you out to get milk tea and barbecue. Afterward, can we have another late night together?"By the time Renee realized what she had walked into, it was too late. A rosy blush appeared on her cheeks, and she blinked rapidly to cover up her embarrassment.“You wish," she muttered as she looked away from him.A bunch of young playboys had approached in hopes of currying favor with Marcelo, and they just happened to overhear the conversation between him and Renee.They stopped short in shock.Was this really the noble Mr. King discussing fried chicken and barbecue with Renee? And Renee, too, had she really just put on a sullen act to get her way? Wasn't she always so elegant and demure?What the hell?Worse yet, they seemed to be discussing something else, something intimate that was meant to occur behind closed doors. And Renee had basically refused Marcelo.What was really going on with these two?As far as everyone else was c
