Caught off guard, Vivian paused for a moment.

She didn’t know Garfield, but perhaps the owner had indeed befriended the Lambert family! With a smile, she moved forward, saying, “That’s very kind of you…”

“Miss Hudson, Miss Curtis, the first suite on the east side offers the best sunrise view. Would you like it?” Garfield stood before Renee, extending the invitation with respect.

Vivian’s smile froze, and her voice cut off mid–sentence.

Garfield was speaking to Renee?

Wasn’t it to her?

The surprise left everyone speechless.

“Mr. Barton, could there be a mistake? Vivian is the friend of your island’s owner. Renee…” Darrell interjected, worry in his voice.

“Miss Hudson is an esteemed guest on the island. We decided to work with the show because she’s here,” Garfield explained.

Glancing at Vivian, he continued, “As for this lady, I’m not acquainted with her.”

Garfield’s remarks hit Vivian hard.

Upon hearing them, her complexion drained of color. She gripped her hands into fists and tried to control her

emotions.

The awkwardness was palpable among the bystanders.

Subsequently, Renee and Sarah left alongside Garfield.

“Garfield, you know I prefer to keep my background under wraps and not flaunt my wealth to others.” Renee sighed.

Garfield, overseeing the Venus Private Foundation, was known for his worldly wisdom.

“Miss Hudson, life is brief. Enjoy it while you can!” Garfield commented, “And regardless of your plans, is it fair for Miss Curtis to endure hardships by your side? Moreover, I haven’t disclosed your ownership of the island.”

Sarah couldn’t suppress a chuckle and said, “Garfield, your sense of humor never fades.”

Renee, eventually giving in, gratefully accepted Garfield’s arrangements.

Garfield, a product of a prestigious education, remained loyal to Renee after she assisted him in settling his family’s debts, helping in the foundation of the Venus Private Foundation.

The villa where Renee and Sarah resided was a testament to Garfield’s thoughtfulness, customized for Renee, adorned with personalized decor, and filled with her preferred flowers, eustomas, and baby’s breath.

“Garfield, are you aware of the details on the show crew’s sea transportation? Our yacht is stocked with exquisite tea and Lafite,” Renee said to Garfield.

“The sea transport for the crew is managed by the Lambert family, with Katharine Lambert, the second daughter, overseeing the dock operations. A week ago, I heard she splurged on a premium tea.” Garfield had specially investigated this and said, “Miss, it turns out you’re the only one among your peers who’s fond of this tea.”

At that, Renee and Sarah looked at each other.

Initially, they both assumed that the tea and the Lafite were meant for Vivian and were misplaced on their ship.

Now, it appeared the luxury items were meant for them.

Renee was at a loss for words. Was it because of the connection she had with Susanna?

The program’s crew showed great interest in the lodging Garfield arranged for Sarah and Renee. They had intended to explore the area but were halted halfway.

Protecting them from public view in this manner sparked speculation about the connection between Renee and the enigmatic owner of the island.

Upon hearing murmurs, Vivian developed a theory.

She assumed the island must be Marcelo’s property!

When Garfield reappeared, Vivian quickly approached him, asking, “Pleased to meet you, sir. Is Marcelo King the owner of this island?”

Garfield gazed at Vivian, clearly puzzled, and replied, “No.”

“How could that be? Besides Marcelo, who else could afford such luxury for Renee?”

“Miss, it might be wise not to measure others by one’s yardstick. Miss Hudson is quite capable. What makes you think she couldn’t own the island herself?”

“Owned by her? That’s hard to believe.”

“Just a bit of humor.” Garfield put on a fake smile and said, “Considering Miss Hudson’s access to exclusive jewelry collections from the Light Show, wouldn’t you agree that her resources are beyond those of ordinary people?”

Garfield was intimately involved in the jewelry dealings.

This revelation sent a shiver down Vivian’s spine.

He was aware of the Light Show!

Wasn’t he using the term “ordinary people” to describe her?

Was this Garfield’s way… of issuing a caution?

The crew’s evening gathering was held. It was only at this event that Renee and Sarah made their presence known again.

As the six participants and directors convened around the bonfire, discussing plans for the upcoming live broadcast, the day’s responsibilities were set aside, offering everyone a chance to relax.

Yet, relaxation was far from anyone’s mind.

They pondered the connection between Sarah, Renee, and the island owner.

No matter how they tried to get the information, Sarah and Renee refused to tell them the truth.

Kristopher, after taking a call, departed the scene in his wheelchair.

Renee quickly approached him once the call ended. “Mr. Wright!”

“Renee.”

People often referred to her as Miss Hudson, but when the word came out of his mouth, it carried an unexpected

tenderness.

It made her feel a tad uneasy.

“You don’t seem to be here for the show. Is it not to your liking? I didn’t expect you to come,” said Renee.

Considering his fragile health and somewhat reserved demeanor, he didn’t seem like someone who would be inclined to participate in such a spectacle.

Kristopher offered a smile, hinting at deeper motives. “I’m here for a specific reason.”

What he desired was the individual right before his eyes.
