Secret Wife, Real Billionaire

Chapter 69 Truly underestimated him

The market was far from expansive. The ventures of the KM Group and the King Group often clashed, making them rivals in many business dealings.

Upon hearing these words, Renee dashed out.

She glared at Grandpa Paul who supported up by Andrew, with one hand gripping a cane, standing just outside the president’s office conference room.

Marcelo, seated in a wheelchair, was surrounded by a cluster of KM Group’s top executives, who stood in silence, seemingly too stunned to speak.

Evidently, they hadn’t anticipated that their president would be the black sheep of the King family.

“Why are you here?“Marcelo’s attention snapped to Renee almost immediately upon the elevator’s opening.

Her hair was disheveled, as if she had run all the way.

Observing her high heels, his brow furrowed in concern.

Why did she run in such shoes?

Panting lightly, Renee explained, “I came to see what is going on.”

She pondered whether Andrew had deduced Marcelo’s role as president of the KM Group from her showing off with the Koenigsegg today, and if this revelation had landed Marcelo in hot water.

Marcelo glanced at his watch and addressed Paul, “You’re here without an appointment. Out of respect for my mother, I’ll grant you a mere five minutes.”

“What five minutes? Marcelo, I’m your grandfather, “Paul retorted, thumping his cane on the floor in anger.

Grandfather?

Marcelo mused, he had only been a grandfather to Andrew.

His eyes shimmered with scorn, yet he refrained from uttering another word to Paul.

Paul, regaining composure, inquired, “When did you join the KM Group? Why didn’t you tell us?”

Andrew soothed Paul’s chest. “Grandpa, we discovered that Marcelo assumed the position of CEO at the KM Group three years ago. He’s been remarkably adept at keeping secrets, deceiving us for years. It’s no surprise he effortlessly spent three billion dollars at the recent auction.
