Secret Wife, Real Billionaire

Chapter 60 Not jealous

“Renee, how is this possible? Mr. King is waiting for you?” Alyssa was incredulous and even reached out to stop Renee from walking..

Luke interjected, “Miss Miguel, Mr. King won’t meet you without a scheduled appointment. Furthermore, I’ll be informing your father about your impromptu visit today.”

Alyssa’s complexion drained.

The Miguel family had chosen Marcelo over Andrew when they found out that he owned KM Group.

She was supposed to win his heart but she also knew that her father had great respect for Marcelo and so would not appreciate her pestering him.

Alyssa had to feign ignorance of the identity of KM Group CEO. She shouldn’t have approached Marcelo here.

She was so overwhelmed by panic upon encountering Renee at KM Group that she made a mistake. “Then, how is sure able to meet him?” Alyssa pointed at Renee, disbelief etched on her face.

Renee turned, offering a sweet smile. “Perhaps Mr. King finds my company more enjoyable than yours due to my naturally beautiful face, Miss Miguel.”

“Renee, have you no shame?“Alyssa was livid, barely containing her fury.

Luke bowed his head.

The significance of appearance was not lost on any woman, especially a celebrity. It seemed Renee was not as nice as some might think!

As the secretary escorted Renee into the CEO’s office, she announced, “Mr. King,she’s here.”

Marcelo shifted his attention from his documents to Renee, noting her evident displeasure.

She seemed poised for confrontation.

Standing politely while the secretary was present, Renee soon slouched into the chair across from Marcelo’s desk and yawned.

“What do you need, Mr. King?” She was eager to return home for some rest.

Marcelo tapped his fingers on the desk. “Where’s

my gift?”

So, she was summoned just for a gift inquiry?

Was this the “important matter” Luke had mentioned?

“Miss Miguel is outside. She came to deliver a gift to you, “Renee informed him.

Marcelo set his pen aside, fixing a steady gaze on Renee.

Beneath his gaze, she noticed a deep, dark glint in his eyes, tinged with a hint of teasing.

Renee felt a chill run down her spine. “Why are you staring at me like that?”
