BuzzNovelPulling her luggage,Renee noticed Marcelo following her. "Are you drivingto the airport?" she asked. "It's on
my way,"He replied, taking a seat in the back and instructing the driver to start the car.
Renee pondered the route. The airport was near the suburbs. Where could he be going that was on the way?
She turned to him. "Don't you have work today?" Her tone carried a hint of curiosity towards Marcelo, who
seemed unusually idle that morning.
With a relaxed demeanor, Marcelo replied, "Day off."
Renee shot him a doubtful look.
Was the KM Group really performing so poorly that its CEO could afford to take so many days off? She thought to
herself.
Catching her skeptical glance,Marcelo gently tapped Renee's forehead. "What's that look for?" he asked.
He suspected that he was crazy to skip work just because she was leaving the country.
Renee, rubbing her forehead, shot him a slightly aggrieved glare. But she didn't call him out on his apparent
mood. Reaching the airport, she suppressed her laughter, feeling an unexpected warmth in her heart.
At the airport, farewells were a common sight.
Marcelo noticed a couple near the entrance, the woman clinging tightly to the man, her face hidden in his neck
in a deeply emotional goodbye. He turned away from the scene and called out to Renee, who stepped out of the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcar without any apparent reluctance.
"Renee!" he called.
"Yes?"She turned, puzzled.
Marcelo frowned, gesturing towards her. She seemed completely unemotional about leaving. "What do you...?"
Renee's words were cut short as she approached the car. Marcelo, seated in the back, reached out, grasped the
back of her neck, and pulled her close.
His lips met hers in a fervent kiss, starting with an intensity like a reprimand. It slowly turned softer, transforming
into a gentle goodbye.
Renee's eyes remained wide open in shock, locked onto Marcelo's dark eyes. She felt emotions from him that
were new and profound, like invisible tendrils entangling her heart.
After a moment, he parted his lips from hers, his hand still lingering on her neck. His voice was rough as he
whispered, "You can go now."
Upon landing at the Airport of the
neighboring city, Renee was
immediately greeted by a
representative from the Light brand. She was whisked away to het hotel to begin the hectic preparations for the
upcoming show, busy as ever.

Two days later, early in the morning, the models were getting their makeup and styling done for the evening's
show.
Suddenly, Jonah Hewitt's assistant burst in, panic-stricken. "Jonah, there's a problem! The partner's jewelry can't
be delivered!"
Jonah, the chief costdesigner for the Light show, was a man in his mid-thirties and quite handsome. He was
perplexed. "How can that be? Isn't the jewelry provided by Vivian?" he inquired.
"The jewelry partner is Vivian Lambert?"Renee echoed, her concern growing. She felt uneasy when she heard
Vivian's name. She knew the show's jewelry was being styled by a prominent designer, but she didn't realize it
was her. The jewelry's high value and small size meant Renee had only seen photos, not the actual pieces.
"Yes, that's her," Jonah confirmed, quickly dialing Vivian's studio.
The call was brief, and Jonah's face darkened with every word. He hung up, looking very serious. "What
happened?"Renee asked, her worry evident.
“Vivian's agent said she thinks the designs don't match our company's style. She's pulling out and will pay the
breach of contract f*e," Jonah explained, his expression grim. "We've worked with her before. That's why we
trusted her to deliver the jewelry on the day of the show."
Renee realized the severity of the situation. The breach of contract fe wasn't the main issue. Vivian backing
out on the day of the show seemed more like a deliberate act than a genuine concern about design mismatches.
Renee had a sinking feeling. This felt personal. Vivianwas targeting her!
This was Renee's first tleading an international show for Light. Any failure, especially now, would tarnish her
career.
