Chapter 208 No noise

Despite knowing Marcelo for barely a year, Renee did not waver in her trust.

In contrast, Jessica, his mother, had aligned with Paul, accepting the narrative that Marcelo might’ve

killed his brother.

The Hagua auction was set to commence in a historic mansion, its architecture dating back a century.

As the auction drew near, the mansion’s driveway was lined with luxury vehicles, though the flow of

arrivals had dwindled.

“Miss, may I have a look at your invitation?” A server stopped Renee.

Caught up in the worry that Sarah was in trouble, Renee hadn’t even thought about the invitation. “I’m

Marcelo King, and this lady is my wife,” Marcelo announced, his hand resting reassuringly on Renee’s waist, signaling their relationship.

Recognizing them, the server’s demeanor instantly changed to one of apology, saying, “My apologies for the inconvenience earlier! Mr. King, Mrs. King, this way, please!”

Renee looked at Marcelo, puzzled. “How did you manage to set this up?”

“I have a team at my company for just such occasions; they’re not merely decorative.”

A simple heads–up to his staff was all it took them to prepare for his and Renee’s arrival at the auction.

Marcelo took pride in ensuring everything was arranged for her.

Marcelo and Renee were led directly to the front row, where two seats awaited, unmarked by name tags,

reserved for VIPs like them who might decide to attend at the last minute.

“Why are there new arrivals now?”

“Look, isn’t that Renee?”

“Why would Renee come out of the blue?”

“Remember Sarah? She’s the auctioneer tonight. Given the embarrassment she’s experiencing, do you

honestly believe Renee would remain passive?”

“Isn’t that…Marcelo by Renee’s side? And his legs…seem fine?”

“Wasn’t Marcelo recently married? Why is he here with Renee? Oh, her last name is Hudson?!”

“Is this implying what I suspect? They’re married?”
