Chapter 116 Surge of anger

“Hey!” Renee exclaimed, startled. Losjig her balance, she instinctively clung to his neck, saying, “What are you

doing? Put me

down.”

Marcelo, with lips tightly pressed, carried her upstairs in his arms

He cast his gaze downward slightly, his dark eyes brimming with dangerous intensity. At that moment, Renee felt

as though she was facing a daunting challenge.

She seemed to have gone too far.

“Let go of me. A lot of eyes are on us right now!“Renee gently tapped his shoulder and whispered. The servants

in the vicinity acted as if they were both blind and deaf, cautious not to reveal their presence to Marcelo.

In contrast, only Chad could afford to watch the unfolding with a smile.

“I thought you weren’t concerned about being seen.“Marcelo carried Renee steadily upstairs.

Renee sighed inwardly. Con, she was just making fun of him. Yet, he seemed to be preparing to teach her a

lesson.

Without any hesitation, Renee shifted the bland said, “Freddy was the one who said that. Not me.”

But it didn’t work.

Sporting a wicked grin,Marcelo carried her in one arm while deftly swinging the door open using his other hand.

They stepped into the bedroom, and he sealed the door shut with a casual nudge from his foot.

Thrown onto the bed by Marcelo, Renee quickly conceded, “I was wrong. | shouldnt have teased you. Calm

down, okay?”

Marcelo slowly loosened his tie. “I am not being impulsive.”

He did look very calm now.

But this was the calm before the storm.

Sensing a tingling sensation in her scalp, Renee rested her palms on the bed and sat upright. “Marcelo, Freddy

mentioned not inviting you to dinner again, or he might entertain other offers. That's why | brought it up so

casually. | just hope that you won't frighten him.”

“If he entertains other offers, I'll hunt down a superior designer for you.“He began to unbutton his shirt.

As Renee lay on the bed, she observed the unfolding scene with a sense of excitement.

“Marcelo, | have the school anniversary to attend tomorrow. | can’t be too worn out.”

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to have sex with him right now but once they started, they always go so many

rounds because they always wanted more of each other.

School anniversary?

It was only at that moment that Marcelo recalled this.

“It doesn’t matter.“Marcelo assured her as he knelt on the bed, saying, “You don’t need to dress formally for the

anniversary.

Renee was speechless.

She regretted allowing Marcelo to see the elegantly wrapped long dress she had prepared for the occasion

tomorrow.

The anniversary ceremony began at half past nine so he felt they had plenty of ttonight.

The next morning, Renee had to wake up at seven o'clock, get ready, and head out early.

However, as soon as she changed into her clothes, she noticed a highly noticeable hickey on the side of her

neck.

It was from Marcelo’s hickey last night.

Renee was still feeling irritable in the morning, and when she spotted the hickey, her frustration intensified.

Consequently, when Marcelo sensed her sudden change in mood and turned towards her, she shot him an angry

glare.

“Marcelo, you're so annoying.“Renee had to step into the changing room and pick out another elegant high-neck

dress.

and gently smoothed her long hair. “Why are

Despite being scolded without reason, Marcelo didn’t get upset. He approached you so irritated in the morning?”

“Try going to bed at three in the morning and waking up at seven Renee shot back.

He raised an eyebrow in response.

It was only then that Renee realized that Marcelo indeed slept later than her because he had bathed her first and

put her to sleep. He also woke up at six in the morning for a run before returning to shower and change. “You are

truly exceptional for not needing to sleep, but | am not like you!”

Renee couldn't help but complain as she grabbed a beige turtleneck sweater and a skirt that reached mid-length

from her wardrobe. She completed the look by adding a soft cashmere jacket

“Sleep?“Marcelo’s mouth curled into a sly smile as he asked, “Is that a noun or a verb?”

Renee's anger intensified. “I should really let everyone outside to see just how silly Mr. King from the KM Group

can be.”

- The University’s anniversary celebration was truly magnificent. Distinguished alumni, now presidents of

companies and renowned figures in the industry returned to their alma mater. Additionally, there were high-

ranking officials from the Ministry of Education in attendance.

Renee occupied a front-row seat while others gradually filled the seats around her.

However, the central seat in the first row remained noticeable unoccupied. This particular seat was intentionally

kept empty in recognition of a generous patron who had made a substantial donation to support the renovation

of the technology building and library.

Not long after Renee took her seat, she suddenly spotted a familiar figure in the audience.

It was Andrew.

He wasn’t a student at the University, so why

Vas he present?

At half past nine, the ceremony began on time.

On the stage, two male and two female hosts emerged, delivering their opening remarks.

They expressed their admiration for the entire institution and extended their gratitude to the honored guests.

Renee furrowed her brow and directed her gaze towards one of the female hosts on the stage.

It was Catherine

Catherine had just started her freshman year at the University, and she wasn’t even studying broadcasting.

So, how had she ended up as one of the hosts?

Unless someone orchestrated Catherine being in this role.

Catherine quickly spotted Renee in the audience and flashed a meaningful smile.

Andrew had entered the event with an invitation from Catherine’s family.Catherine had informed Andrew that

representing the alumni.

To Catherine's surprise, Andrew responded disdainfully, “She doesn’t deserve it.”

Catherine had been anxious that Andrew might rekindle his feelings for Renee, but now she realized that Renee

had already provoked Andrew.

Renee would not have a good day today.

Renee was the final graduate to address the gathering.

Typically, speeches at such events were standard fare, effective as long as the speaker had meaningful content

and remained poised, delivering without reliance on notes.

As Renee concluded her address and was about to leave the stage amid applause, an unexpected male voice

emerged from the crowd.

“I've got a question for this alumna.”

At the University, a culture of freedom and equality encouraged posing questions to fellow students after their

speeches.

Andrew rose to his feet and inquired, “Seven graduates spoke today, all distinguished in their fields, except for

our most recent graduate here. Renee, do you truly believe you deserve to stand here and represent other

graduates as a distinguished alumna?”

Andrew, who had faced embarrassment at Renee’s hands numerous times, was intent on making her feel

humiliated now.

Catherine, watching from backstage, couldn’t suppress a grin.

In the audience, Andrew had a self-satisfied smirk on his face.

The room fell into a hushed silence, followed by a murmur of whispers.

Suddenly, the door to the venue opened quietly.

The president walked in, accompanied by a man. A member of the student union swiftly moved a vacant chair,

and a wheelchair smoothly glided into the now-empty space, coming to a stop.

The person seated in the wheelchair was Marcelo, the sMarcelo who had told Renee just two hours earlier

about a meeting at his company.

Renee stared at him, her eyes wide with surprise.

Could it be that Marcelo was the one who donated money to the school?

That would explain how he managed to get the school’s security to escort her off the premises last time.

“Renee, you still haven't answered my question, “Andrew stated, trying to appear righteous yet hinting at

something else. “A true representative of the graduates must be capable and deserving. We're all waiting for

your explanation. The school is a place of honor, not a tool for gaining wealth or connections.”

His words almost directly accused Renee of seeking fthrough dishonest means.

She felt a surge of anger.
