Chapter 115 A Night Full Of Scandalous Revelations…
Renee, despite burdened by a weight greater than her own, navigated through the hall with surprising agility. Marvin, abandoning his own girlfriend, squeezed into the elevator just as the doors were about to seal shut.
“Who is she? Do you know her? Did something happen to her?” Marvin’s voice echoed with a blend of concern and curiosity–emotions strong enough to draw him after
Renee.
Ignoring his barrage of questions, Renee snapped, “Where’s your car? We need to get to
the hospital, now.”
“It’s parked outside the hotel,” Marvin replied, his voice tinged with worry. “She’s not… she’s not going to die, is she?”
“Relax. She won’t die in your car. We’ll make it,” Renee assured him sharply.
The woman, cocooned in the blanket, shifted slightly, her movement almost an
affirmation of Renee’s words.
Renee adjusted her hold and warned with a stern undertone, “Stay still, or it’ll be worse for you.”
As the elevator descended to the fifth floor, the doors parted briefly, revealing a potential intruder. However, a fierce glare from Renee halted them in their tracks. She didn’t bother to see who it was as she barked, “Close the doors!”
Marvin fumbled with the buttons in a panic, managing to slide the doors shut just in
time.
The elevator returned to silence, but Marvin’s thoughts were elsewhere. “Are you sure about this? With all the media outside? Some are even live streaming.”
“Scared?” Renee challenged him, her voice icy and sharp, cutting through the tension in
the air.
Her gaze was so piercing that he couldn’t help but shake his head emphatically in
response.
“Great. Just go get the car–I’ll deal with the rest.”
The elevator descended smoothly to the ground floor, emerging discreetly outside the banquet hall, sparing them from the immediate scrutiny of the crowd.
However, the sight of Renee maneuvering through the lobby with someone shrouded in a blanket was too conspicuous to go unnoticed, and it wasn’t long before a few onlookers spotted them. Recognizing Renee, they began to whisper excitedly amongst themselves.
The true ordeal awaited at the hotel entrance, flooded by a legion of cameras, smartphones, and video recorders all aimed at the banquet festivities.
The moment Renee showed up, every camera instinctively locked onto her.
Media reporters, quick on the uptake, swarmed around her, eager to unravel the story. Yet, before anyone could utter a question, Renee cut them off sharply. “Get lost. Unless you’re looking for trouble, step aside.”
Her tone was as chilling as her glare, leaving no room for
argument.
“What’s happening here? Who’s that person she’s carrying?”
“I’ve got no clue. What’s going on?”
“Ms. Carter… You…”
“Out of the way! Sunrise Entertainment, right? Are you looking for trouble, or is it your ́ whole damn company that’s begging for it?”
Renee’s tone was sharp, her gaze piercing as she recognized the logo and addressed the reporter from Sunrise Entertainment. He quickly stowed his camera and stepped aside, his actions setting a precedent that no one else dared to challenge.
With the path cleared, Renee hustled to get Rosa safely into Marvin’s car. The moment the car doors shut, the reporters surged forward, cameras flashing incessantly, the
scene resembling a storm of relentless fireworks.
“Was that Mr. Doyle I saw? Another trust fund brat caught up in drama?”
“Tough to say. Did you catch anyone under that blanket? Probably got freaky as hell
and lost control.”
“This is huge! Let’s follow them!”
Whispers and guesses flew everywhere. Reporters were busy on their phones, urging their teams to jump on the story and uncover something explosive,
The banquet had barely started, and Renee was already causing a media frenzy for the second time that evening. Her earlier bold confrontation with the streamer at the hotel entrance was still making rounds online, and now, the Internet was ablaze with speculation. Clever netizens had quickly concocted topics like “Ms. Carter and Mr. Doyle suspected in a scandalous affair,” complete with photos of Renee carrying a mysteriously blanketed figure. The buzz around the event was escalating rapidly, setting the stage for what could be a night full of scandalous revelations and controversies.
