Secret Wife Real Billionaire (by Ela) novel Chapter 86

Chapter 86 Take a look

At six in the morning, the winter dawn was dark, and the city lay still in the hushed morning mist. In the backseat of the Maybach, Renee kept yawning. She glanced at Marcelo, busy with his emails, puzzled at how someone who slept so little could be so full of energy.

Yet, she had to admit, Marcelo looked particularly handsome while working. His profile was striking, his gaze calm and deep, as if no challenge was too great for him.

The car stopped outside the film set.

“I’m off. Bye!”

As Renee reached for the door, Marco draped a white mink coat over her shoulders.

The thick, warm fur shielded her from the morning chill that seeped in through the open car door.

Renee paused, a thought crossing her mind. She turned to Marcelo, asking, “Are you really here on business?”

The luxurious mink coat was unlike anything available in the city. Marcelo had claimed he was on a business trip, but why would he bring such an exquisite coat on a work trip?

“Yes,” He answered calmly.

Despite his reassurance, Renee’s intuition whispered that his visit wasn’t for business.

She tilted her head, eyeing him in a way that was almost cute.

After a brief pause, she teased, “If you’re here just for me, I might reward you.”

“What kind of reward?” His interest was piqued.

Renee hadn’t really thought it through. As she pondered, he suggested, “A good morning kiss? Or maybe a farewell kiss? Or a blowjob.”

Renee, deciding not to scold him for his naughtiness in public, chose on a whim.

“Farewell kiss.”

Marcelo chuckle was low and brief, betraying his good mood. “With your kissing skills?” he teased.

Renee felt mocked. “What’s wrong with my kissing skills? My kissing skills…”

Before she could finish, He kissed her, cutting her off. Thankfully, Luke wasn’t in the car, but she realized there was a driver!

Renee tried to push him away, but he caught her wrists, holding them above her head, leaving her powerless to

resist.

“Marcelo, don’t… Stop… Wait…”

He only stopped when he chose to.

After the kiss,he playfully wiped her lips. His usually cold demeanor had taken on a teasing air.

“Farewell kiss,” he declared. He didn’t need a reward; he’d take his farewell kiss himself. “And remember to take your medicine.”

DONUS

Back in her hotel room, Renee brooded. She hadn’t gotten the answer she wanted. She had hoped Marcelo would say, “No, I’m not here on business.I’m here for you.”

The loud knocking on her door snapped Renee out of her thoughts. Opening the door, she saw Susanna, anxious and urgent.

“Renee, there’s trouble! The director’s upset because you didn’t finish your work on time. He’s really angry. You need to come quickly!”

The meeting room was silent and tense. Along with the head of the clothing and makeup department, the main director was present, everyone waiting for Renee.

“Renee,where’s the makeup plan for the supporting male actor I asked you to prepare yesterday?“Charlie inquired.

“I put it on your desk yesterday, “Renee responded.

“But there’s nothing on my desk. Are you certain you didn’t misplace it?” Charlie questioned with a frown.

Before Renee could respond, Joseph Ramos, the director, slammed his hand on the table, his voice steeped in anger. “Don’t think I’m unaware that you left right after the meeting yesterday! You’re too inexperienced to act professionally. All you seem to know is how to laze around and deceive people!”

His words were overly harsh.

“I…”

“I’ll let it slide this time since you’re new. But don’t expect such leniency again, Renee!“Joseph dismissed her attempt to explain, turning his attention to another set of papers. He projected them onto the screen with a sigh of disappointment.

“Since Renee isn’t prepared, let’s review Alyssa’s draft.”

Renee’s eyes widened in shock as she saw the draft on the big screen. It was identical to her own design.

Alyssa stood, addressing the room with the rationale behind her design. The draft’s excellence in both beauty and historical accuracy swiftly garnered unanimous agreement.

“Alyssa is truly a standout from of Wells University. Despite her youth, she’s truly remarkable!” Joseph commended Alyssa before turning his ire towards Renee. “Learn a lesson from her, Renee!You were tasked with this responsibility, yet your colleague had to clean up your mess!”

“Sir, I have a question,” Renee calmly interjected. “Given that I was assigned this makeup design, why did Alyssa prepare it?”

“Renee, not everyone is idling away just like you. I differ from you. Opportunities are reserved for those who are well–prepared,” Alyssa responded, seizing the moment she had been waiting for three years to humiliate Renee.

“Well–prepared?” Renee pointed to the projection on the big screen, questioning, “Were you well–prepared for stealing my draft?”

The room erupted into a clamor.

“Stealing? What is Renee talking about?”

“What stealing?”

“What is Renee implying?”
