Chapter 158 Her actions
Vivian burried over to Alma’s side, not ready to let Renee off early.
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. Dont you one 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 lip and gripped her dress, trying hard to stay calm.
“I really hope everyone’s having a good time at the party,” Renee announced, waving her hand. Her arrival and exit were both unexpected.
The room fell silent.
Who could actually have fun after witnessing that?
Renee started to walk away but suddenly felt like she was missing something.
Then, it hit her, and she stopped dead in her tracks.
She turned and saw Marcelo in his wheelchair, looking at her with no expression.
His eyes seemed to question, “Did you forget me?”
She had totally forgotten about him!
Embarrassed and guilty, Renee walked back to him awkwardly.
She asked cautiously, “Are you…heading home now?”
Marcelo stared at Renee coldly for a few seconds before looking away.
He called the manager of Dove Island over and told that person to make sure everything remains calm at the bar even in his absence.
“Marcelo, are you also planning to leave?” Vivian realized Marcelo was about to leave, and she couldn’t even manage a forced smile.
“Yes.“His intention was to just show up for a short while.
Renee felt a jolt of surprise.
She had asked in a casual manner, never really expecting Marcelo to decide to leave with her,
Was this not like a slap in the face for Vivian?

“Renee,” he said in a cool tone, sounding almost upset “How about we discuss the matter of you forgetting about me and deciding to leave alone?*

Renee found herself caught in Marcelo’s steady gaze. He looked like he was expecting ser to confess something, which left her momentarily at a loss for words.
After a brief pause, she spoke, her voice uncertain. “I almost left because I thought you might be upset with me…. for ruining Vivian’s party.”
