Chapter 194 Outside the window

Renee instinctively looked outside the window.

Sure enough, the sleek, black sedan was parked in the same spot it had been that morning. Thanks to the floor–to–ceiling windows surrounding the library, she had perfect view of the entire car.

The passenger in the back seat could see her rather clearly, too.

Marcelo sat in brooding silence as he watched Renee from afar.

He had a mission when he left the office, but after getting here, he had no idea where or how

to even start.

No one had ever taught him how to apologize, let alone how to express his true feelings.

Renee had once told him that he could never give her what she wanted.

She had mentioned marital fidelity, something that Marcelo thought was a given, and had provided without question.

What else could she have meant?

Marcelo had thought long and hard about it, but he wasn’t sure he even understood what he was lacking in the first place.

He had been sitting in his car and staring at Renee for over two hours before she turned her head in his direction.

The car window was one–way glass, so she couldn’t have seen him.

But the moment her eyes fell on the window of the back seat, Marcelo felt as if her eyes had stripped him to his core, leaving him raw and vulnerable.

A wave of guilt hit him from out of nowhere, albeit with a trace of excitement that she had noticed him.

However, events unfolded in an unexpected manner.

Renee stood up, gathered her books and laptop, and moved to another spot behind the shelves.
