Do te think the following quote(in the description)was foreshadowing o coincidence?

In Eclipse, Renee says: "The way he watches you. It’s like he’s willing to leap in front of te to take a bullet o something. "
For course unknown to Bella, Victoria was out trying to get her at this moment & unfortunately was blocked. However do te think Edward was being EXTRA cautious and to Renee that it seemed creepy o that's just Stephenie Meyer trying to make Renee seem as if she's catching on to B/E's relationship.
