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 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?” She hurriedly explained, “I brought gifts on behalf of my family, and he was probably just being polite because of my family. I’ve always been on your side.” “I am not angry with you, “He replied, the crimson flame flickering at his fingertips.

“Really? If you’re not angry, then why did you ask Damian to entertain me?” Vivian looked down, hurt.

“Vivian, Renee is my wife in public and in private.I can’t hang out with another woman because I won’t be pleased at all if she were to entertain another man.”

“I know that…” Vivian responded, feeling frustrated. Why did he have to keep emphasizing it?

Marcelo remained silent, his gaze fixed on Vivian, as if silently studying her. His gaze remained calm yet imposing, and the unspoken message hung heavily in the air. Since he had a wife, his companion could only be her.

Vivian looked away, her heart stinging with pain. “I’m sorry, I wasn’t thoughtful enough.”

She had miscalculated. She hadn’t expected him to have such a stance.

However, she also felt a flicker of joy, thinking that once she became his wife, she would receive the same level of protection.

With no reason to stay in the room any longer, she decided to leave. She strolled alone to the garden to clear her head before returning.

“Miss Lambert!“Catherine suddenly blocked her path, her right hand casually resting on her flat belly, seemingly flaunting her pregnancy.

Vivian wasn’t particularly familiar with Catherine, but she had heard that this woman was carrying Andrew’s child. She acknowledged Catherine with a nod but had no intention of getting into a conversation.

“Miss Lambert, seeing Penee stand beside Marcelo, are you happy with that?“Catherine spoke without restraint, taking advantage ..ack of bystanders.

Vivian abruptly stopped in her tracks, her gaze sharp as she turned to face Catherine. “What do you mean?”

“I am the real daughter of the Hudson family, as you must have heard,” Catherine declared without beating around the bush. “I can tell you don’t like Renee, and neither do I! As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.”

She dangled the bait, suggesting an alliance.
