Chapter 24
*MARCELO
I sat on the opulent cosewood chair, sipping a glass of water.
When Renee bumped into me earlier, I was surprised I didn’t find that disgusting
Her body had been so soft against me and when I told her to touch me,I meant it
I swallowed recalled the strong desire 1 felt to press her against the wall. Heck, I still felt that desire.
My teeth clenched, felt slightly irritated that I had no idea what this woman was doing to me
Suddenly, the bathroom door cracked open,slightly, and Renee’s voice tinged with unease,came through
“E Mr King I didn’t bring any clothes m.Can you help me?”
Trolled my eyes.“You know, you can just come out and go get clothes,right?There are some spare clothes in the store house for everyone I’m your husband so perhaps it’s time you start getting comfortable with being naked around me “I replied.
I was curious about her whole body.
RENEE+
knew that was inevitable but I wasn’t ready yet.
“I…can you give me some time to get used to that idea?Please help me get some clothes.”
“Nope’m a total douche so I won’t be helping you.”
Seriously?
Why did he have to hold onto grudges like this?
I said this days ago and he was still formenting me with it!
Frustrated by his stubbornness, I clenched my teeth in annoyance.
Despite my irritation,I needed his help. couldn’t go out naked and merely wrapping myself in a towel would only attract more attention.
There were so many people in this house and I didn’t want anyone seeing me in a towel.
I decided to taunt him.
“Mr King.I apologize for the other day. But if you’re not going to help me out then I’m going to walk out of your room in just a towel Mind you, it’s barely covering the.”
“What does that have to do with me?”
I bit my lower lip.
Surely he has to be a bit protective of me
I walked out of the bathroom and stood in front of the bathroom door.
“Do you really want me to go out like this?”
He gazed at me and if I wasn’t mistaken, I’d said he looked flustered.
Then he reached for the telecom and ordered.
“Get my wife some spare clothes.”
I smiled. Thank you.”
“Go back to the bathroom and wait.You’re very distracting.“He ordered, coldly.
I nodded and quickly did as I was told.
wwwww
Few minutes later, I heard a knock on the bathroom door, opened it to see him stretching some clothes to me.
reached out to take it but my fingers touched it.
We both withdrew immediately I grabbed the clothes and quickly shot the door.
Marcelo makes me feel so much tingling sensation sometimes, most of the time really.
And I really wasn’t ready to face those sensation.
When I emerged from the bathroom again,now fully clothed,I saw him seated in his wheelchair.
He was rhythmically tapping on the table his face an indifferent mask yet with a trace of inquiry. “Care to explain how you got into my room,iny bathroom soaking wet?”
I swallowed and replied.“I accidentally
fell in
the pond.”
At that moment, we heard a commotion outside.
It seemed like the show had just begun.
“Eneed to check something “I sold, making my way to the door.
But Marcelo extended his long leg from the wheelclsar,effectively blocking her pals.
I turned to face him to see him eyebrow raised, he definitely wanted me to explain more of how I fell into the pond.
Batt was expered to see the outcome of Callierine’s scheme.
“Mr King will you like to come with me?There’s a spectacle unfolding outside.“1 let out inamcently.
Marcelo tapped on the armrest, silently indicated for me to push his wheelchair,
Cutside, the corridor was abuzz with activity. A crowd had gathered near the room where Renee and Catherine had their encounter, their voices filled with excitement and curiosity,
Inside the room, Catherine’s voice echoed in panic. “How is this possible? Where’s Renee? I saw her here.I saw her here with a man. Where is she?” “What nonsense are you talking about? I was the only one in here, just sleeping peacefully, and then you all stormed in!” A voice, slurred and irate, boomed through the room. It sounded like a man who had been rudely awakened from a drunken slumber.
Understandably, anyone would be annoyed at being awakened so abruptly, especially in such a manner.
The man, clearly inebriated, was unaware that someone had entered his room.
Hence, behind Marcelo, couldn’t help but let out a muffled chuckle, clearly amused by th
the turn of events.
“Catherine dear, you were looking for me?” she asked, teigning innocence as she pushed Marcelo’s wheelchair forward, revealing them to the gathering crowd
