Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 136

Chapter 136: A Mysterious Man

Somewhere in the other country, a vast mansion surrounded by beautiful greenery...

A tall, well-built man in his mid-twenties, dressed in a perfectly fitted black shirt and pants, stood by the glass wall of the study on the first floor, his hands tucked casually into his pockets. He stared out at the lush garden below, which stretched across the front side of the grand mansion he resided in.

A man in a light gray suit, appearing to be in his forties, entered the study and glanced at the solemn figure standing by the window.

The tall figure by the window acknowledged his arrival with a glance over his shoulder, his sharp, handsome side profile shadowed despite the sunlight pouring in from outside.

"I’ve received word that someone is investigating Aiden Handrix," the newcomer reported.

"Hasn’t that been going on ever since that marriage certificate was sent to its owner, Eric?" the tall figures, deep and firm voice echoed in the study.

"This time, it’s different. It’s serious," Eric continued, his demean or serious. "Before, whoever tried to find it out, they would always hit the dead ends we set up, but now... this person seems to have powerful connections and strong resources. Despite our efforts to erase all traces, they’ve managed to find some clues."

The tall figure remained silent, his gaze still fixed outside, his thoughts hidden behind his composed exterior.

"Ms. Shaw might not be pleased with what you’ve done," Eric added carefully.

"She doesn’t need to know," the tall man replied curtly.

"I’ve kept it from her so far, but I doubt we can hide it much longer. Sooner or later, she’ll find out," Eric insisted. "The news about the marriage and mysterious husband is everywhere."

"I’ll take care of it," the tall man assured, his deep voice devoid of emotion.

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and a servant stepped into the study. "Doctor Inman is here to check on Madam Shaw."

Eric gave a nod, and the servant quietly left.
