“It’s so amusing, Catherine’s fans praised her online in the morning as a versatile idol, but her cover is blown in

the afternoon.”

“Is Catherine trying to leave showbiz? Lately, she’s been topping search rankings and retracting her statements

frequently. What's going on with her?”

“Catherine never claimed to be the dancer's understudy. It's you, silly netizens, making baseless guesses.”

“This classical dance is professional. Renee’s dance moves are so precise and beautiful. That's amazing!” “She is

my senior schoolmate from high school. Back then, competed with her in a middle school classical dance

competition, where she emerged as a gold medalist at the national level. I've always been curious about why

she transitioned to becoming a stylist. There's a mystery surrounding her absence from the classical dance

world. I'm shedding tears.”

“She is incredibly beautiful. Truly exceptional! | wish to be close to her.”

“I have sexclusive information. The stylist’s nis Renee Hudson. Repeat! Renee Hudson.” “Some

adorable guy arranged a fireworks show for her birthday. Ahhh! How nice!”

Netizens quickly directed their attention to Renee, reigniting the discussion about the forgotten fireworks show.

Upon seeing her name, Renee felt a twinge in her eyes.

Fortunately, the matter was related to the sensitive topic of “the real daughter of the Hudson family,” and no

one reached out to her on W***x*p_ This left her in a somewhat more comfortable state.

Was this what Marcelo meant by “The problem has been solved“?

However, this solution wasn’t to her liking.

Most importantly, it didn’t bring her any joy.

Renee wasn’t in the mood to style herself today, so she sought help from Cyril.

“Miss Hudson, congratulations on winning the golden prize this year. It's impressive. | was twenty-seven when |

received the award. You're even more accomplished than me.” Cyril was quite talkative, engaging in

conversation with Renee while working on her styling.

She expressed her gratitude to Cyril and left the studio, holding the hemline of her gown. Wearing a mermaid

gown and delicate makeup, Renee appeared exceptionally elegant and beautiful. Without a smile, she exuded a

subtle sense of detachment, discouraging others from approaching her.

It was the first tMarcelo had seen Renee so dressed up, and he suddenly regretted how he wedding night.

Marcelo gave Cyril a cold look.

His eyes conveyed something along the lines of “It’s none of your business.”

He was implying that whether his wife was beautiful or not should be of no concern to Cyril.

Cyril was speechless. He thought Marcelo was a narrow-minded man.

Miranda's birthday party took place in the private villa of the Moore family, attended by affluent individuals and

her doctor friends.

Renee, wheeling Marcelo, made an entrance, immediately capturing attention.

It was his first appearance at a banquet after his identity as the CEO of the KM Group was revealed.

People gathered around him, fearing he might leave.

Renee suggested, “You talk with them first.”

Due to the sensitivity of her identity, she preferred not to stay and listen to the men’s discussions or be

observed. “Where are you going?” He held her hand.

It was like he was showing his possessiveness for her.

Renee announced, “I'll go greet Mrs. Moore happy birthday and give her a gift.”

She shook the gift box she carried in her hand.

The bosses in the vicinity exchanged glances.

Rumors circulated about the supposed connection between the fake daughter of the Hudson family and Marcelo.

The revelation that he brought Renee to such a significant occasion surprised everyone, as they hadn’t expected

the rumors to be true.

The party for Miranda's birthday was yet to start. She was upstairs, welcoming guests in the second-floor

reception room.

Renee walked into the room, holding a gift. At the stime, two women she was familiar with were heading

out,

“Renee!“Miranda caught sight of Renee who was standing at the entrance.

“Happy birthday, Mrs. Moore. I'm sorry, I've been meaning to visit you.Marcelo and | got you this gift. | heard

you're a tea lover, so | got you a tea set. | hope you enjoy it.” Renee placed the gift on a table.

“This is so thoughtful of you.” Miranda, delighted, opened the present. She beamed, “You must have chosen this

yourself. | can’t imagine Marcelo selecting such a fine tea set.”

Although Miranda was wealthy and not easily impressed by expensive gifts, Renee's choice was exactly what she

wanted.

Renee's thoughtfulness was a rarity. It was no surprise that when she was the Hudson family’s eldest daughter,

many sought her hand in marriage.

Renee and Miranda engaged in conversation.

Meanwhile, outside the room, Renee becthe subject of gossip.

“Alyssa, your family’s close to Marcelo, right? Do you know what's going on between him and Renee?”

“Renee...” Alyssa kept to herself the true nature of Renee and Marcelo relationship, while others believed they

were just dating.

She felt that their marriage might not last..

“Tellalready. Don’t leavehanging,” the person next to Alyssa insisted.

Alyssa smirked and said, “Just wait. Renee won't stay important for long.”

Now was the moment for her to get in touch with Vivian.

Leaving the reception room, Renee barely took a few steps when she ran into Damian.

Damian was all dressed up today, a sharp contrast to his usual casual attire. He wore a suit and styled his hair

neatly.

“You...You're wearing the hairpin | gave you!” Damian noticed, his eyes sparkling as he saw the Chanel hairpin

on Renee's hair. Trying to contain his excitement, he added, “It looks beautiful on you.”

“You have an eye for style,” She complimented.

She remembered Damian saying that if she didn’t wear his gift, it meant she didn’t like it.

“Are you here by yourself?” Damian asked, not seeing anyone else with Renee.He added.“I’'m solo today, so |

guess | could...”

“She’s not by herself.”

Before Damian could finish, he was cut off.

Marcelo, seated in his wheelchair, was a meter away from Damian.His expression was icy, revealing no hint of

emotion.

“Marcelo.“Damian remarked, noticing the tie Marcelo wore. It was royal blue twill, complementing Renee’s dress

perfectly.

That's when Damian realized he had acted too hastily.

Marcelo gave a nod and extended his hand to Renee. “Chere.”

Renee, sensing his annoyance, approached him. She hesitated for a moment before placing

“Did you give Mrs. Moore her gift?” Marcelo inquired of Renee.

She nodded in affirmation.

Marcelo’s look fell on the Chanel pearl hairpin in Renee’s hair. “Did Damian give you that hairpin?” he asked.

He had overheard their earlier conversation.

“Yes,” Renee confirmed. “The night | returned from the Venus Bar, | left it on the bedside table. You had asked

about it.”

Marcelo remembered the incident, initially thinking the gift might have cfrom a woman.

He wondered how unusual it was for a man to gift a hairpin to a female friend.

“Wait forover there,” He directed Renee towards the corner couch lounge.

As Renee moved away, the tension in the air seemed to thicken.

“Renee is taken.She’s mine.What is going in that head of yours?!“Marcelo’s tone was unusually harsh and cold

towards Damian, who was Wyatt's younger brother.

“It's not like that, Marcelo. | didn’t know... My apologies,” Damian stammered, taken aback. He appeared

confused, with Renee’s mention of the ‘bedside table’ echoing in his mind.

Was she living with Marcelo?

Damian questioned himself, feeling mindless. Just two days ago, Renee had been inquiring about Marcelo and

Vivian. How could he have thought that Renee and Marcelo had nothing together?

And how could he possibly accept that the woman he had secretly loved for years belongs to another man now?

And not just any man.

Marcelo King?!
