Secret Wife Real Billionaire (by Ela) novel Chapter 298

"How do you know we aren’t a good match?" Marcelo scoffed.

Her words seemed perplexing to him.

“Aren't we facing obstacles now? This obstacles proves that.” Renee sighed.

Marcelo stayed silent, his expression icy.

After a while, he inquired, "So if I ask Vivian to leave Harvillston, will you stop making a fuss?"

“I'm not making a fuss!" Renee’s tone escalated in agitation. "Marcelo, that's not what I want! Don't you understand? If you don't, then you can't give it to me!"

“Renee, how can I know if you don't explain it to me?" Marcelo frowned.

What was it that she yearned for but couldn't receive from him?

Her lips were pressed tight as she faced him.

She wanted him to love her, to cherish her, to be solely hers.

But could that ever be reality?

She had dropped hints, questioned his jealousy, yet he remained unresponsive.

She offered him countless opportunities to choose her, but his choice was always Vivian.

Before Renee came to know him, it was Vivian who shared a childhood with him.

Renee refused to belittle herself any further.

She needed to maintain some self-respect in her one-sided love.

“Marcelo, I need to go have dinner. I'm leaving now." She attempted to loosen his grip, finger by finger, her face set in a mask of determination.

But her strength was no match for his, her efforts were futile.

His grip only tightened, the tension between them rising.

“Marcelo, let go of me!" Renee’s anger boiled over, her words sharp and clear.

“You repulse me!" Abruptly, he released her.

The Maybach's rear door stood open. The man inside, usually so self-assured and composed, was struck with confusion.

Renee walked over to Howard, who was under the pomegranate tree, and then the two of them disappeared from Marcelo’s view.

Luke, noticing Marcelo’s lack of movement, carefully shut the car door.

“Luke, what did Renee mean by that?" Marcelo’s voice was tinged with bewilderment.

Luke felt a chill. "I...I didn't hear what she said just now. I was distracted."

How could he admit hearing Renee call him disgusting?

That would be akin to courting disaster.

Over their months of marriage, Marcelo had grown to understand her character.

While she might have a temper occasionally, she wasn't one to insult others without cause.

Had she really thought he was disgusting?

Marcelo was at a loss. He hadn't been unfaithful, so why would Renee express such repulsion? Confused, he pondered over her words.

“Sir, there's news about your mother."

Suddenly, Luke interrupted his thoughts.

He had checked his email and had something to share. "Your mother didn't take her medication yesterday. It was found under her pillow, and she confessed to hiding it. Also, your grandfather visited her earlier."

Marcelo had been investigating Jessica’s recent health decline, suspecting foul play with her medication.
