Chapter 269 - The Accomplice

Micaela contacted Mr. M, asking about his current location. He was in his private villa when he received Micaela's message.

She sounded so urgent so he told her to meet him in his villa since he was free today. After getting his response, Micaela instructed the driver of the taxi to proceed to Mr. M's address.

She was clueless that someone was tailing her. It was Alexa. She was able to catch up with them.

Alexa was very careful not to be noticed by Micaela and the taxi driver. She saw the taxi entering a private villa. The security was too tight and strict. She was not allowed to enter unless she's a friend of the owner.

At this certain moment, Alexa could tell that the person was powerful and influential. She wondered if this person was Micaela's accomplice.

"Hmm, okay. It's time to use my spying skills." Alexa mumbled to herself as she parked her car a few meters away from the entrance gate of the villa.

She wore her mask and cap, bringing her phone, and binoculars. She decided to trespass without getting caught by the guards.

She surveyed the area for a while, looking for the security cameras. She walked around the area, searching for the blind spot where no cameras or security guards were roaming around.

While Alexa was trying to figure out how to enter the villa secretly, Micaela already arrived at the mansion. Mr. M was already waiting for her on the balcony. That was his favorite hang-out place while he was in his villa.

Micaela approached Mr. M with her gloomy expression. He just watched her in amusement, wondering what caused her to be in a bad mood.

Micaela sat down on the opposite chair, facing Mr. M.

"What do you need this time? You are only visiting me if you need something from me. Tsk. Tsk." Mr. M clicked his tongue, being a little bit sarcastic toward her.

Micaela just rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.

"I am here to report. Of course, I also need some help from you," Micaela said directly, without denying it.

"Let me hear it," Mr. M nonchalantly said before taking a sip on his cup of coffee.

"Selene is cheating on Renz with Gabriel! I saw them kissing each other this morning."

"Cough! Cough!" Mr. M choked on his coffee when he heard that. This news was unexpected. He had never imagined that Selene would cheat on Renz. 

"Are you sure about that?" Mr. M asked her, intrigued.

"Yes! I saw them with my own eyes!" She insisted.

Mr. M burst out laughing. He was quite surprised by this discovery. "That's interesting."

"But I have a concern! Renz learned about the scandal video! Why did you let such evidence fall in his hand??!" Micaela complained to him with her agitated voice.

"Oh really? Does it mean Selene showed it to Renz? I only sent this video to her during their wedding day." Mr. M plainly said, not worried at all.

"Renz confronted me. What if he is now doubting me? He accused me of trying to ruin his relationship with Selene because of this video."

Mr. M just took a deep breath while looking at her helplessly.

"Why are you panicking? I thought you already saw Selene cheating on him. You have an alas now. Use it to your advantage." He suggested.

Micaela just narrowed her eyes at him. She felt like Mr. M was not interested in her complaints. He was so indifferent and nonchalant about her concern. His attitude was pissing her off.

"So what do you need from me?" he asked, staring at her.

"I want you to investigate someone! Do a background check. There is a woman who is lurking around Renz. Alexa is her name but I don't know her last name. She called Renz Babe. I wanna know what their relationship is."

Mr. M raised his eyebrow. So this was all about Renz. He hated it when Micaela was becoming more possessive of Renz. He thought she could handle him by herself. But here she was in her panic mode upon knowing that another girl was involved with Renz.

"Micaela, what is happening to you? It seems like you are not performing well lately. Selene is also distancing herself from you. Don't tell me she doesn't trust you anymore?"

"Even with Renz… you have no idea where he met another woman. Tsk tsk tsk. What am I gonna do to you, Micaela? Should I always be the one filling your gaps?" Mr. M started scolding her. This was the first time he did this, making her feel that she was useless.

"What are you trying to say here?" Micaela spat back at him.

"I just want to remind you to do your job well. Until when are you going to play with Renz? We need the Chou Empire, not him! So be clear with your goal!"

"If you need to force him… offer yourself to him and get pregnant in order to get his empire, then do it!"

Micaela's eyes widened in disbelief. She had never expected that Mr. M would suggest this kind of thing. 

'Get pregnant and bear Renz's child? Is he kidding me?'

Mr. M was always possessive of her. But now, he was pushing her to do this kind of thing with another man. Micaela was really surprised by his reaction.

'Does it mean he doesn't care anymore even if I sleep with Renz? Don't tell me he is already in love with Samantha… for real?'

Micaela didn't say a word. She was just observing Mr. M intently. Mr. M frowned after meeting her gaze.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" Mr. M asked her curiously.

"Do you… do you love Samantha already?" Micaela suddenly asked him this direct question.

Mr. M was not able to respond. He was just looking at her with his eyebrows raised.

The two had been staring at each other, not knowing that a pair of eyes was already watching them from a distance. Alexa was able to enter the villa. Using her binoculars, she saw Micaela talking to Mr. M.

'He looks familiar to me.. I wonder where I saw him. Is he Micaela's accomplice?'
