“What kind of paintings do you prefer?“Marcelo thought for a moment and then offered, “I have more paintings in my warehouse.”

He was indicating his readiness to give anything to Rence.

Warehouse…

Why did he link this word to the collection?

It was challenging for Renee to convince him not to move more valuables to her apartment, which was less secure than his warehouse.

They then went back to his house

Upon entering the house, they sensed an odd tension.

Chad subtly hinted to Marcelo that Ivan had been waiting all night.

Renee noticed Ivan’s displeased look in the living room, surrounded by his favorite snacks, seemingly wanting to share them with her.

She found herself at a loss for words.

Why did she carry this guilt, like leaving a child home alone during the holidays?

“Ivan, what’s on your mind?“Renee asked, fighting back her guilt,

“I wanted you both to ring in the new year with me.” Ivan hadn’t slept a wink, sporting dark circles under his eyes. He gazed at Marcelo and Renee with a touch of resentment. “Instead, you two disappeared all night!”

Marcelo shot him a chilly look. “I’m not your guardian. My concern is making sure you’re still breathing and studying.”

Ivan turned away, no longer interested in talking to Marcelo.

Taking a seat across from him, Renee asked patiently, “Why didn’t you go out with your friends for New Year’s?”

Celebrating New Year’s with friends is often more fun than with older family members. Additionally, the strained relationship between Ivan and Marcelo didn’t seem conducive to a joint celebration.

Ivan, with a dark expression, questioned, “Did Marcelo authorize me to go out?”

Renee then remembered that Marcelo had restricted Ivan to the house to prevent him from running away again.

She realized how unfortunate Ivan’s situation was.

“I apologize for unintentionally leaving you behind while we…we both…“Renee expressed her guilt but didn’t know how to complete that.

“You think I don’t know what happened? Humph. You and Marcelo must have had a wonderful night at a hotel, righ van

sneered.

Caught off guard, Renee spat out her drink, embarrassed by Ivan’s bold guess.

Ivan, a’bit shocked at his accuracy, playfully teased Renee for being shy, claiming he knew everything.

Renee stood up, and realized Ivan didn’t need her sympathy. He was aware of everything a couple should do, showing his maturity.
