"A marriage alliance..." Vivian muttered, her voice trailing off.

The news had caught her completely off guard.

Catherine’s satisfied grin grew wider as she saw the shock etched on Vivian’s face.

“Miss Lambert, do you still see yourself as the other woman? Are you ready to be outplayed by someone so cunning?"

“Why are you telling me this?" Vivian quickly regained her composure. "You're with Andrew. We both understand his connection to Marcelo. If I marry into the King family, the Lamberts will support Marcelo. That can't be good for you."

It didn't make sense for Catherine to be helping her.

Catherine just shrugged. "I can't stand watching that Renee enjoy a good life. Isn't that reason enough?"

The birthday ceremony then began. Paul had two sons and a daughter. Today, his daughter was notably absent. She was the family's outcast, having married young and moved abroad with her husband. She had almost cut all ties with the Kings.

Renee vaguely recalled that she had been cl

    “No, it wasn't me!"Catherine blurted out in a knee-jerk reaction. But as she realized the undeniable truth in the surveillance footage, she quickly shifted her story. "I just lost my balance. It was an accident. I didn't mean to hit the table!"Renee was unaware of Catherine’s presence near the champagne tower since she was out of her line of sight. Now, she was convinced that Catherine had intended the incident.Marcelo, however, was uninterested in Catherine’s excuses.“I'm giving you a chance to apologize," he said sternly. He pointed to another champagne tower and instructed Catherine, "Go stand there and pull the table yourself."His demand wasn't unreasonable. He wanted Catherine to understand the potential harm she had nearly caused Renee.“No, I can't!"Catherine refused, shaking her head in terror and shielding her face.She feared the glass could cut her, potentially scarring her face. She then tried to shift the blame to Renee. "You weren't even hurt. You can't do this to me

    My love?Those words reeled through her head and she slowly pulled away from him and stared into his eyes.It wasn’t the first time he was calling her that but it made her heart ache as she wondered if he knew what that meant.“Do you even know what that means?”She asked,her voice hoarse from crying so much.Marcelo was confused.“What are you talking about?”“You shouldn’t call me your love.People don’t just randomly call people that.”She turned away from him as tears threatened again.“Renee,I’m not randomly calling you that.I called you that because…”“Why did you help her?”He blinked,surprised by her question again.“Help who?”“Stop playing dumb already.”She yelled as she stood up to her feet.“Do you know how hard she tried to ruin me?!She was aiming at ruining my career and I did my best,getting the jewelries and…and running around making sure everything went smoothly,do you have any idea how tired I was when I played the piano.Even if I was looking composed,doing so much that

    As soon as Marcelo walked into the house that day,Renee ran up to him and hugged him.He smiled as he stroke her hair.“Did you watch the press conference?”She nodded.“I’m sorry that I didn’t inform you about announcing our marriage to the public first…I…”She lifted up her head to stare at his face.“I’m not upset.I’m glad that everyone knows I’m your wife.”Marcelo beamed at her.”And I am glad that everyone knows that this incredible woman is mine.”She smiled,broadly.“I was thinking,maybe we could have a wedding ceremony.”He suggested.She bit her lower lip.”I’d like to walk down the aisle to you.”He leaned down and kissed her deeply.“I’m curious about something.”She suddenly let out.“About what?”He asked.“Were you disappointed or happy when Wyatt confirmed I wasn’t pregnant?”“Disappointed.”He replied,honestly.“Really?”“Yeah.

    Renee watched Vivian with a knowing smile.Vivian, unable to utter the words, bit her silver teeth and continued to gaze at Marcelo, silently begging for his help.Considering her relationship with his brother, Marcelo reassured, "It's okay not to call her that."If his brother were still alive and married to Vivian, they would have referred to Vivian as "sister-in-law."Renee’s smile stiffened slightly, but it didn't matter to her. She didn't need Vivian’s acknowledgment as "sister-in-law," and the thought of it even disgusted her.She didn’t want Marcelo and Vivian to be seen as siblings.She wanted Vivian to have nothing to do with her husband.Was that too much to ask?Meanwhile,Jessica showed a keen interest in the piece Renee had composed and started discussing it with her.Finding the conversation uninteresting, Marcelo decided to step out to the balcony for a smoke. Seizing the opportunity, Vivian followed him.“Marcelo, are you angry with me for siding with your father today?"

    Feeling a pit in her stomach,Renee was about to relinquish her hold when Marcelo spoke.“No, thank you." He refused Vivian directly.Marcelo waved in the direction of Damian, who was standing nearby. "Damian will keep you company.”Vivian and Damian were already acquainted.“Huh? Oh, sure. I'll take it from here,"Damian replied.He was startled at first, and then bewildered by the sudden task that was thrown in his face. But he didn't want Marcelo to leave Renee alone and go with another woman, so he agreed without a second thought.The smile froze on Vivian’s face, and her eyes darkened. She swallowed and quickly composed herself. "Well," she said, forcing another smile at Damian. "I'm afraid I will have to trouble you in the meantime."Damian paid no mind to her strained expression and carried on as he would with an old friend.“It's no trouble at all. We were just about to play dice, do you care to join us?Renee is quite good at it. Why don't you give it a try?"Damian offered.Wyat
