Chapter 199 My actions

Marcelo’s lips tightened; he was not about to admit anything.

“You should make things right with your wife. But even if you are her husband, I can’t let you go upstairs,” the manager said, taking the milk tea from Marcelo’s grasp. “I’ll bring this up to her for you.”

As the manager spoke, a tall man entered the lobby.

“Who are you looking for?” he asked the newcomer.

Marvin, with his understated elegance, was well aware of the establishment’s protocols. “I’m here to see Sarah in Room 302,” he stated calmly.

“Do you have your marriage certificate with you too?” the manager asked jokingly, still holding the milk tea in one hand while extending the other.

“What?” Marvin responded, puzzled by the unusual request.

“You can’t go upstairs without a marriage certificate!” the manager announced disdainfully. “See, that man over there and Renee are at the point of squabbling and making up, all because they’re married. Young man, you’ve got to step up your game if you’re trying to win someone’s heart!” With those words, he swiped his card and ascended the stairs slowly, milk tea in hand. Marvin, wearing an expression of mild annoyance, glanced at Marcelo. He was here for Sarah, yet suddenly, the topic of a marriage certificate was thrown into the mix.

“Mr. King, I gather Mrs. King hasn’t forgiven you yet?” Marvin couldn’t help but imply that Marcelo’s effort was in vain. He believed that it was Marcelo’s failure to resolve things with Renee that gave Sarah a reason to stay here.

“And what about you? You were taken to the security office, but you haven’t managed to take Sarah with you yet?” Marcelo shot back, irked by the notion that Marvin hadn’t yet removed the so–called third wheel, Sarah.

Despite having worked together before, the two men shared looks of displeasure.

Yet, realizing neither of them could get into the dormitory, they both couldn’t help but feel a bit of satisfaction at each other’s predicament.

When Renee opened the door at the knock, she was greeted by the manager’s cheerful voice. “Renee, here’s your milk tea!” he said, beaming. “Your husband sent it.”

The mention of “husband” took Renee aback.

“Marcelo? How… How do you know I’m married to him?”

“He showed me your marriage certificate!” The manager laughed, thinking the whole scenario amusing. “I prevented him from entering the dormitory. But since you’re married, I didn’t refuse his request to deliver this. Here you are. The rest is up to you two.”

“I’m sorry for the inconvenience…” Renee apologized, feeling guilty about the trouble her personal matters had caused.

“It’s all good!” the manager assured her, then turned to Sarah. “And miss, there’s someone here for you too. But since I stopped Renee’s husband, I couldn’t exactly let your visitor in without question.”

“Thanks a lot,” Sarah said, already guessing the visitor was Marvin, who had shown up unannounced because she hadn’t answered his calls,
