Secret Wife, Real Billionaire

Chapter 68 Exposed secret

The next morning, Renee intended to dispose of the tie meant for Wyatt. It was still a mystery how it found its

way

to Marcelo.

Yet, despite her search, it was nowhere to be found.

Did he really want to keep binding her by that?

Luke proved his competence. After lunch, Renee received news that KM Group's top lawyer was ready to assist

her.

The lawyer, having discussed the specifics with Renee, promptly dispatched a legal notice to Alyssa.

“Miss Hudson, we require your bank details for the compensation transfer from Miss Alyssa,” the lawyer

requested.

“There's no need for compensation. I'd prefer you donate it to the University’s School of Life Sciences and

Technology,” Renee replied.

“Miss Hudson, there's another matter,” said the director of the design department. “The makeup team for *

Timeless love’ seeks stylists. You expressed interest in and film segments. You might consider trying your

hand at being a stylist for this TV series.”

“Timeless love?“The title was unfamiliar to Renee.

The director handed her a document. “It’s a historical idol in need of a stylist. Here's the storyline and

character sketches. Check it out. If you are interested, you can participate in the selection process the day after

tomorrow.”

“Okay, thank you, “Renee said, accepting the document.

Exploring TV series makeup had always been a goal for Renee.

The director then inquired, with a hint of concern, “Miss Hudson, are you ill? Your voice sounds different.”

There was a moment of silence. Renee's smile stiffened momentarily. “Just a minor throat issue, no impact on my

work.”

“There's nothing more for today. Miss Hudson, would you like to visit the thirty-eighth floor?” asked the director,

aware of Renee's close ties with Marcelo.

Renee inquired directly, “Does he needfrom anything?”

“No, he doesn't.”

“Then | shall pass. | have a dinner engagement. I'll be off now.”

Renee wouldn't seek out Marcelo without a purpose.

On the thirty-eight floor

“Mr. King, today Mrs. King’s voice seemed unusual, “Luke informed Marcelo. “She may have a cold since she

seems to be experiencing sore throat.”

Marcelo’s brow creased at the mention of a cold, but at the mention of a sore throat, realization dawned, and a

subtle smile touched his eyes.

Renee hadn’t caught a cold. It was a consequence of her vocal cries during their lovemaking. “Hmm.” His

response was brief yet telling.

Luke was puzzled by Marcelo’s delight to Renee’s discomfort, but he refrained from questioning it. Marcelo,

setting aside his pen cap, asked, “Where is she now?”

“She left for a dinner engagement,” Luke replied.

Marcelo expression turned grim instantly.

A dinner engagement?

Why did she have so many appointments every day?

Meanwhile, Renee received a call from Alyssa not long after leaving KM Group.

“Renee, have you gone broke and lost your mind? Is a mere few hundred thousand dollars worth such a fuss?”

Alyssa’s voice was a mix of anger and incredulity, struggling to retain her composure.

Renee drove the Koenigsegg Marcelo gave her to work today. The car unlocked itself as soon as she approached

it with the key.

“A few hundred thousand is still significant. And as Mrs. King, I'm hardly poor,“Renee retorted, her words laced

with disdain for Alyssa.

“You...How shameful, Renee, “Alyssa seethed.

“Sendyour bank details. I'll transfer a million. Just leavealone.”

“Ill have my lawyer handle it, “Renee responded, wary of any direct financial dealings with Alyssa. She wouldn't

give Alyssa her bank account directly.

What if Alyssa slandered her for fraud or blackmail instead?

“Don’t get too comfortable, Renee. Your status as Mrs. King won't last.Once Vivian Brosnan returns, it'll be over

for you.”

Vivian Brosnan?

The nrang a bell for Renee, but before she could place it, she got distracted.

“Miss Miguel, please relay this to the lawyer. | have no interest in further discussion with someone infatuated

with my husband, “Renee concluded the call and then addressed Andrew, who was blocking her path. “Andrew,

you're obstructing my car.”

Standing in front of the Koenigsegg, Andrew stood transfixed, his gaze locked on the supercar he had once

aspired to own but failed to acquire.

“Is that photo real? This is your car? How did you get it?” The realization that the car before him was the very

one he coveted left him incredulous.

“It was a gift tofrom your cousin, “Renee casually revealed, her hand resting on the car door, a hint of

satisfaction in her voice at Andrew’s stunned expression.

“What did you just say?”

“But this car is different from the one you missed out on at the auction, “Renee said with a smile. “The sports car

you've been dreaming about has been in Marcelo’s garage all this time.”

The news shocked and angered Andrew more than the fact that he'd been deliberately outbid by Marcelo at the

auction.

“How can this be? There are only three of these cars in the world. It's impossible...” Andrew mumbled in

disbelief. A sudden thought struck him, and he abruptly turned his gaze towards the KM Group building.

Observing his reaction, Renee frowned. “Why are you here?”

Andrew, who had been standing at the entrance of KM Group, seemed to recall something urgently, quickly

retreated to his car, and drove off.

Renee, who had no plans for the afternoon, was intending to visit Venus Bar to review the turnover and data

from the lab.

As soon as the car stopped at the Venue Bar, Renee blinked in a pause.

Andrew’s abrupt departure and his last glance towards the KM Group replayed in her mind.

Why did he leave so suddenly?

What was he planning to do?

The last thing he saw was the KM Group building.

Did he suspect something?

With these thoughts swirling in her head, Renee restarted the engine and swiftly returned to the KM Group.

Upon entering the KM Group's lobby, Renee sensed a change in the atmosphere.

The receptionist whispered, indicating the arrival of someone important.

Renee caught snippets of the conversation.

“I'm not sure why the people from King Group are here.”

“Who did you say was here?“Renee inquired, her body reacting faster than her thoughts. Before she knew it, she

was standing before the receptionist.

The receptionist was almost frightened. “The people from King Group... It appears to be the eldest son of the

King family, supporting an older gentleman.”

“Who are they looking for?” Renee pressed.

“They're looking for our president. They've already gone upstairs. Hey, ma'am,” the receptionist responded, still

recovering from her surprise.

Renee ran all the way back, stepped into the elevator, and ascended to thirty-eighth floor.

As soon as the elevator doors slid open, a furious voice erupted from outside.

“Marcelo, you are really something, huh! To think that you've ascended to the presidency of the KM Group. I,

your grandfather, am astounded that you kept this monumental secret fromfor so long. Had Gary not

enlightened me, | would've remained oblivious to your actions against your own family’s interests. All these

years of raising you amounted to nothing.”

“Marcelo, the bllies with you. Your secrecy is unfathomable. Are you seriously plotting against our family?

KM Group had been at war with our family business all along and it was you?!You were the one taking business

deals away from our family business?!”
