Chapter 12

“MARCELO

I stared up at Renee who was looking quite displeased at me.

Yeah that’s what you get

et for lying to me!

It was actually laughable that she had said she came here with her best friend.

Am I supposed to believe that?

Mr King,Can I leave now?” She leaned down a bit and asked me.

Despite myself, I was momentarily captivated by her scent.

She smelled sweet and milky and her warm breath tickle my ear,triggering a shiver through my entire body.

I swallowed recalling how hot he feels to kiss her.

“So now that Marcelo is here can we get on to what we have planned for tonight!“Someone announced, breaking me out of my trance

I looked away from Renee and took a sip of my whisky,then I said, casually to Renee.

“What would you like Miss Hudson to join you in?” asked careful not to address her as Mrs King yet.

“I said I was leaving “Renee reminded me.

“Sit down!“I ordered her loudly and she couldn’t dare refuse.

She reluctantly sat adjacent to me.

“Marcelo,I’m your wife, you can’t keep treating me like this.” She hissed,bher voice was low but laced with anger.

Tobserved her noting the intense emotion in her eyes I was curious to see how far I could push her and how she’d react.

“So now you remember you’re my wife?Have you ever respected the fact that you’re my wife?” I sneered.

She ended things with Andrew and got married to me not long after for reasons best known to her.

But she was still meeting up with that bastard!

What did she take me for?!

He must think that I still had something to do with Andrew.

I wanted to explain myself but on second thought,I chose not to.

He wouldn’t believe me anyway.
