Secret Wife, Real Billionaire

Chapter 61

Chapter 61 Fully aware

True merit shines through one’s work.

Renee’s recent styling of Ivan and Brandon catapulted her to overnight fame in fashion circles. Soon, top studios sought her for their male clients. Renee, however, declined, citing her ongoing collaboration with KM Group. She knew focusing solely on male styling could pigeonhole her career.

On the first sunny weekend post–winter, Renee relaxed in a rocking chair by the French window, soaking in the warmth.

“Mrs. King, the Miguels are here for Mr. King, “Chad informed her.

Renee, nearly dozing off, mumbled, “Inform Marcelo about it.”

“Mr. King’s in a meeting, “Chad replied.

Realizing Chad’s implication, Renee sat up. She was being asked to host the Miguels.

“Let them in.” She sighed. Hosting wasn’t her preference, but staying at Marcelo’s house meant lending a hand occasionally.

Renee had the staff ready tea and snacks. Soon, she heard Chad ushering the guests.

“Mr. Miguel, Miss Miguel, please, this way. Mr. King is occupied, so…”

Alyssa cut him off with a shocked outburst. “Renee? What are you doing here?”

Alyssa’s latest appearance at fashion week left her the target of mockery. Critics questioned her role as the face of STAR Jewelry Thankfully, KM Group, who provided the stylist, didn’t hold Alyssa accountable for the brand’s tarnished image.

Yet, Alyssa laid the blame squarely on Renee.

Had Renee not been involved, she wouldn’t have changed stylists, leading to her being overshadowed by Ivan.

Renee was the root of all issues, Alyssa believed.

“Mr. Miguel, Miss Miguel, please take a seat.” Renee had assumed Chad meant the elder Miguels when mentioning the family. Had she known Alyssa would be there, she would’ve retreated to her room.

Renee’s nonchalant hosting irked Alyssa further. “Renee, how can you face me after what you’ve caused? I’ve been the laughingstock because of you.”

Renee regarded Alyssa with disbelief.
