The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Laney maintained a firm expression and spoke with assurance. “Garrett may be immature, but he is not a bad person. Despite the significant disparity in our social status, he has remained devoted and considerate to me ever since we got married. I trust that he would never be unfaithful. Ian, I’m aware that Garrett hasn’t been treating you well lately. That’s entirely his responsibility.” Laney offered a regretful smile and continued, “You are an exceptional and competent personal assistant. I will have a frank conversation with Garrett and urge him to let go of his biases.”

Ian hung his head, declining to speak any further. In essence, he was even more uncertain about how to confess the truth to Laney.

Laney had complete faith in Garrett. If Garrett were to betray her trust, it would deal a devastating blow to her.

How could he muster the courage to tell her that?

Just as Ian found himself caught in a quandary, his phone unexpectedly began to ring. The caller was Natalie.

“Pardon me, would it be alright if I answer the phone?” Ian asked politely.

Upon receiving Laney’s consent, he stepped outside to take the call.

“Ian, I was occupied with work and didn’t hear my phone ring. Is everything alright?”

Natalie sounded perplexed as she inquired over the phone.

Following a brief pause, Ian ultimately resolved to disclose Garrett’s unusual behavior to Natalie. As Laney’s closest confidante and Ian’s employer, he trusted that Natalie would be able to uncover the

truth.

A luxurious Maybach sped along the winding road, heading towards the wealthiest area in Barnes.

In the warmth and comfort of the car, Natalie sat at the back, her frown deepening as she listened to Ian’s report through the phone. Ian told her every single suspicious move of Garrett’s.

“What? Are you sure of what you’re saying?” Natalie’s eyebrows furrowed in disbelief. She just had to be sure that Ian wasn’t mistaken.

“Of course, I’m sure!” Ian answered immediately. Natalie stayed silent for a moment, deep in her thoughts. But Sean, who was driving, couldn’t stay quiet after what he had heard. “Mr. Harding is going too far! His wife is still on her way to recovery after giving birth to his child in critical condition. How can he, in good conscience, cheat on her?”

Natalie was also angry, but she calmed down and tried to reason things out. It wouldn’t help to act out of anger.

She caught Sean’s eyes through the rear-view mirror and shook her head for him to recover himself.

With a heavy sigh, she said into the phone, “Ian, keep this from Laney for now, okay? Let me look into it first.”

After hanging up, she leaned back into the seat and gently massaged her temples. She was starting to feel a headache coming on from all these.

What the hell did Kailee have on Garrett to make him acting this way?

Was Ian right? Did Garrett really cheat on Laney?

Seated by Natalie in the car, Brandon watched her and sighed softly in resignation.

He had come to pick Natalie up after work to take her out on a nice date. But of course, Garrett just had to ruin it in one way or the other.

Brandon pulled Natalie into his arms and rested her head on his shoulders. His kissed her hair tenderly and murmured, “Are you okay?”

She wasn’t, and he could see that. Her chest heaved, showing how much she was ttying to calm down.

Laney underwent premature labor and hemorrhage because of Kailee. What did Garrett do? Nothing! As a matter of fact, he was still embroiled with Kailee.

Natalie shook her head in confusion. Wasn’t he supposed to feel guilty towards Laney for doing this? And what about their child? Didn’t he care?

Suddenly, Natalie left the warmth of Brandon’s arms as though she had thought of something and turned to face him. “Brandon, it was one of your men who found Garrett last time, right? I need to know every detail of what happened.” Brandon sighed and pulled out a document from the storage compartment for her as though he had been expecting this.

“You’ll find everything you need in here. Even Kailee’s itinerary is in here.”

Indeed, Brandon had anticipated that Natalie would want to look into this. So, before meeting her today, he had someone gather both Garrett and Kailee’s itinerary on that day. Natalie took the document from Brandon with apprehension, scared of what she would find inside. The expression on Brandon’s face didn’t really reassure her either. Did Garrett really betray Laney?

Natalie took a d*eep breath, then opened the document and started going through it.

The further she went, the more shocked she got. “Oh no,” she muttered.

From what Natalie was seeing, it was clear that Garrett and Kailee did go to the same place that day though they took separate flights. That wasn’t even the worst part.

The worst part was what Natalie saw on the last page of the document. It was a clear picture, showing Garrett and Kailee checking into the same hotel.

That was the same day that Laney gave birth prematurely and almost got k*illed by hemorrhage.

And while that was going on, Garrett… the scumbag, was off the grid. But now, it was obvious why he was unreachable. That bastard was having the time of his life with Kailee. Kailee was behind everything that happened to Laney—her premature delivery and all the complications that followed. Natalie could only be grateful that she arrived on time that day. If not…

Filled with rage, Natalie clutched the document so hard that her fingertips became white. Her breathing suddenly became shallow, and came in short gasps.

“Natalie!”

Brandon called in panic when he saw what was happening. He quickly asked Sean to park at the side of the road so he could check on Natalie more easily.

After the Maybach quickly pulled to a stop by the side of the road, Brandon opened the door and helped Natalie out. He held her and patted her back gently.

Still breathing with difficulty, Natalie leaned against the guardrail at the side of the road for support. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

After a long time, she finally calmed down enough to breathe normally.

She took a deep breath and gazed ahead of her at the high mountains shrouded in mist in the distance. “Why didn’t you tell me when you found out?” Her voice was so low.

Brandon sighed dejectedly. The pained look on her pale face broke him. “This is why! I was scared you would let your anger consume you,” he said helplessly.

Actually, his plan had been to take care of it on his own. He never thought Natalie would find out before he did.
