Divorce Failed My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 806

"If you're genuinely interested, set up a private gathering later. Bring in a few like-minded individuals, and we can discuss how to slice it up."

His eyes gleamed with ambition. "So there's an even bigger project coming?"

"What you saw at the tech expo was just the appetizer."

His heart raced with anticipation.

"I'm looking forward to it."

Just as they reached their mutual understanding, Andres finished his call and walked back.

"Sorry about that. Work emergency."

He sat back down beside her, his sharp instincts immediately picking up on a subtle shift in the atmosphere between them.

"What were you two talking about?"

She casually stirred her coffee with a silver spoon.

"Just discussing a dessert that both Mr. Salazar and I really enjoy."

Leonardo nodded with a smile.

"Indeed. The flavor of that dessert is something to truly look forward to."

Andres wasn't stupid. He instantly smelled something fishy.

She hated sweets, yet here she was talking nonsense about dessert.

Clearly, while he was on the phone, they had discussed something she didn't want him to hear.

He felt a sharp twinge of annoyance but kept his composure in front of their host.

They stayed for lunch at the villa. On the surface, the meal was harmonious and pleasant.

By the time they left the estate, it was already two in the afternoon.

Andres and Leonardo had shared quite a few drinks over lunch.

While he wasn't a lightweight, the alcohol had inevitably left a slight haze in his eyes.

On the drive back, she noticed his sour mood.

"Are you upset?"

He rarely showed his emotions.

But around her, he felt no need to hide.

"A little, yes."

She raised an eyebrow. "Who ticked you off?"

Emboldened by the liquor, he answered honestly.
