*RENEE*

Marcelo had just come out of the shower so his hair was still wet.

He had a dark green bathrobe on,its belt hanging loosely.Each step he took towards the bed offered clearer glimpses of his defined chest and muscles.

My body grew warm with need.

Unlike any other man,Marcelo’s physique affected me so much?

The mattress dipped as he sat down.

Marcelo perched on the edge of the bed,one leg bent casually,drying his hair with a towel from the nightstand.

I blinked and then he glanced at me.

“You look disappointed.What?Are you ready for me?Do you want me to fuck you tonight?”

My lips parted in shock.

How can he be so raw with his words?

Why did I feel that he wanted to have with me right now?

I thought he hated me.

My eyes fleetingly noticed several colorful boxes on the nightstand.

Are those…condoms?

Did he get them?

My heart pounded and I stared at his eyes.

Was he going to sleep with me because he finally considered me as his real wife?

I knew myself very well.

I wasn’t someone w

    *MARCELO*I was a light sleeper,the tiniest bit of noise woke me up.I had barely shut my eyes that night when I was awakened by footsteps.I opened my eyes to see Renee heading for the bathroom.My eyes remained open until she came out.It seemed as if she was barely awake because I was surprised when she slid into bed next to me.I sat up sharply as her scent enveloped me.She slept so soundly next to me,her peace seemingly unbreakable.I scoffed.How could she sleep so peacefully while my own peace was being shattered by her.Not fair.I laid back on the bed and tried to wake her up.It wasn’t fair that I was the only one who couldn’t sleep.With that,I called out.”Renee.”She didn’t stir.My voice grew louder.”Renee.”Instead of answering me,she nestled deeper into the pillow.Was she such a deep sleeper?My eyes dilated when she rolled over and placed her head on my chest.I blinked,nervously as she nestled against me,pressing her body on mine.My body stiffened,a suppressed groan

  • Secret Wife, Real Billionaire   Chapter 28 Drunk Renee

    ***********Marcelo, sporting a grim expression, seemed not to hear Renee’s question.Luke, trailing them, was well aware of the reason behind Marcelo’s wheelchair use: sheer laziness.Despite his regular exercise routine, Marcelo viewed walking as unnecessary, preferring the convenience of a wheelchair.Maybe because he had been pretending for a while and had completely gotten used to it."Mrs. King, are you alright?"Chad was taken aback to see Renee in the wheelchair."It's just a minor injury. I'll be fine in a few days," Renee reassured, keeping the explanation brief. "I'll prepare a nutritious soup for you tonight,"Chad declared before heading to the kitchen.Renee,slightly bemused, didn't get a chance to clarify the trivial nature of her wound.“Let the maids know if you need anything," Marcelo instructed, implying she should avoid walking. He then proceeded upstairs to the study with Luke.Once they were gone, Renee stood up."Mrs. King!" A maid rushed over, alarmed."Don't worr

    Perhaps she should suggest using Renee’s own clothes from the wardrobe, but she decided against it, assuming it might be a romantic gesture between them.Marcelo’s black shirt hung on Renee like an oversized dress, her injured knee and lower leg exposed, creating a striking contrast with the dark fabric.Marcelo watched, his expression hardening.A bath towel would have been more appropriate.Before the doctor entered, the maid cautioned him not to look around too much. However, human curiosity often prevails.Inadvertently, the doctor glanced at Renee, immediately drawing a stern warning from Marcelo. "Care to keep your eyes?"It was a threat."I'm sorry, Mr. King!" The doctor quickly averted his gaze, apologizing.In his profession, patients were seen without gender bias."Is Mrs. King’s injury only on her knee?" he inquired, carefully removing the bandage."Yes," Marcelo confirmed, having previously checked.Renee’s main issue now was intoxication.As the bandage came off, the seve

    *MARCELO*The kiss wasn’t brief.I couldn’t even make it brief.Not that I even tried.Once my lips touched hers, I didn’t want to break away.I pressed her against me,devouring her mouth,my tongue slipping inside continuously to dwell with hers.“Marcelo…”She panted against me.”Ma…Marcelo,I can’t breathe…”She choked out.It was only then I moved away from her.I watched her gasped as she stared at me with wide beautiful eyes.“We’re even now.”I murmured even though I still wanted to kiss her more.Unable to stop myself,I gently wiped the corner of her mouth and then I leaned in and kissed her once more.I lost control of myself and made her lie flat on the bed.She kissed me back,ferventy,running her hand through my hair.I hovered above her and kissed her cheek,I moved my lips to her neck and sucked on it.“Ma…Marcelo.”She moaned.I palmed her breast through my shirt and as I intend to take off the shirt,I heard her murmur.“I…I feel wet.”I blinked,moving back a bit to stare at her

    “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

    "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

    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

    At a high-end shopping center downtownNana’s clothes were easy to choose, as they only needed to be decent and comfortable. It didn't take long for Renee to pick out a set of clothes for her.Jessica, on the other hand, had a dignified temperament, but there was still a girlish look in her eyes. Renee spent over an hour, picking the right clothes for her.“Hello, please show this..."“Pack this dress for me!"Renee was about to ask the saleswoman to bring her the dress so that she could get a better look when a woman's arrogant voice interrupted her.“Miss Hudson, you also like that dress?" Alma, who just entered the shop arm-in-arm with a man, smiled at her smugly. "Too bad. Vivian wanted it for an elder of the King family."“Is that so?" Without hesitation,Renee snatched the dress from the saleswoman and strode straight to the cashier. "I'll take this dress, thank you."Whoever paid the bill owned the dress.Alma was stunned. She didn't expect that Renee would be so brazen!"Don't

    Only by firmly embracing this woman did he truly feel her presence, as if this was the only way to ensure she wouldn't be taken away by anyone else.Seeing that her protests had no effect,Renee gave in.She remained seated on his lap, taking a sip of milk tea from the cup she had opened and then donned disposable gloves to begin eating the fried chicken.Why did she have the feeling that he had become so assertive without her even noticing? "Marcelo..."“What is it?" he replied without looking up from the documents, his profile still displaying its usual angular and somewhat aloof demeanor.“Do you like to…you know…have…make physical contact with me because you’re in love with me?”Renee had this question in mind but hesitated to voice it.She had noticed a change in his attitude, a growing closeness and indulgence between them. However, he had never explicitly expressed his feelings for her, even though she had made attempts to draw those wordsIn the end,Renee decided not to push fur

    Renee frowned, clearly annoyed. But Vivian had presented a valid excuse for joining. Turning her down would make it look like she was causing unnecessary trouble.*************A comprehensive check-up had been set up by Wyatt, leaving Renee feeling a bit apprehensive when she spotted the progesterone and HCG test items on the list.Despite her assurance to Marcelo that she wasn't pregnant, he had taken the initiative to schedule tests to detect early pregnancy.This left Renee pondering whether Marcelo was secretly hoping for her to be carrying their child or if he was trying to prevent it from happening.It tugged at her heartstrings, as she couldn't help but lean towards the latter possibility.After all, they had consistently used birth control during their intimate moments, and Marcelo had never shown much interest in the prospect of parenthood. The only time he ever mentioned pregnancy and childbirth was during the heat of the moment, which Renee understood as mere empty words s

    Renee didn't respond and continued upstairs, leaving Vivian behind in the room.Reaching the top of the stairs,Renee found herself regretting not having Chad escort Vivian out. She wondered if Vivian would leave on her own.Vivian stood there, seething with frustration.How dare Renee treat her like that?Chad appeared discreetly, hesitating.“Miss Lambert, would you like to stay, or..." His unfinished words implied that it was now time for her to leave.Vivian managed a strained smile. “Can I wait here for Marcelo? It's my first time at his house, and it seems inappropriate to leave so abruptly."“Of course,"Chad replied.In his mind, he found Vivian’s unannounced visit somewhat improper, given her lack of gifts or courtesies.In the meantime, a car stopped outside the main building of the mansion.The staff, once used to Marcelo being a workaholic, now observed him returning home on time each day.Entering the house, Marcelo immediately felt something was off.Before he could put hi

    Catherine’s gloating tone was a stark contrast to her demeanor after being expelled from the University.“Oh, congratulations,"Renee responded, her tone indifferent.Why should Catherine’s pregnancy matter to her?She had no intention of spending any money on a baby shower gift.That money would be better spent elsewhere!Catherine, expecting a different reaction, noticed Andrew’s gaze lingering on Renee.Frustration washed over her face as her smile faded.“You better find a way to explain that past incident to Nana!" she snapped at Renee, then turned to Andrew. "Come on, let's show your parents the baby's report."“What incident?"Sarah inquired, puzzled.Renee just shook her head, feigning ignorance. "No idea what she's talking about."Yet, the need to explain things to Naomi was indeed pressing.Sarah, still confused, wondered aloud, "Is Catherine delusional? What the hell was going on in her head?"Renee speculated, "She's likely worried I still have feelings for Drew."Considerin
