Secret Wife Real Billionaire (by Ela) novel Chapter 267

Renee frowned, clearly annoyed. But Vivian had presented a valid excuse for joining. Turning her down would make it look like she was causing unnecessary trouble.

*************

A comprehensive check-up had been set up by Wyatt, leaving Renee feeling a bit apprehensive when she spotted the progesterone and HCG test items on the list.

Despite her assurance to Marcelo that she wasn't pregnant, he had taken the initiative to schedule tests to detect early pregnancy.

This left Renee pondering whether Marcelo was secretly hoping for her to be carrying their child or if he was trying to prevent it from happening.

It tugged at her heartstrings, as she couldn't help but lean towards the latter possibility.

After all, they had consistently used birth control during their intimate moments, and Marcelo had never shown much interest in the prospect of parenthood. The only time he ever mentioned pregnancy and childbirth was during the heat of the moment, which Renee understood as mere empty words spoken in the passion of the moment.

“Marcelo, I have a favor to ask of you,”Vivian addressed Marcelo as soon as Renee entered the examination room.

Marcelo turned his attention to Vivian, curious about her request.

Vivian began to explain her predicament,”I had a previous collaboration with a luxury brand, but due to unforeseen circumstances, the jewelry shipment didn't reach our partner on time. I informed them in advance and assured them of compensation for the breach of contract. It seems that someone might be trying to create trouble. They are insisting on holding me accountable, and numerous magazines are also making a big deal out of it...I'm not sure how to handle this situation."

Although Vivian didn't explicitly state it,Marcelo grasped the underlying message—she was in trouble and hoped he could help resolve it.

Without much hesitation and without seeking further details about the brand in question,he assured her, "I'll arrange for Anna to handle it."

Vivian’s face lit up with relief, and she happily linked her arm with Marcelo, expressing her gratitude, "Thank you,Marcelo. You're incredibly kind."

Although Renee didn't agree to assist, Vivian found a way to navigate the situation with Marcelo’s support.

“Vivian, I made a commitment to my brother to look out for you so he can always be at peace,"Marcelo reminded firmly, withdrawing his arm as he spoke.

He had always been reserved when it came to physical contact with others, with the exception of Renee.
