Chapter 884 – The Double Life of My Secret Billionaire Husband

Finally,Natalie couldn’t bear the awkward silence. She covered her face and said,”Brandon got hurt because of me.I have to stay here tonight and take care of him.”

Once again,the room fell into an eerie silence. Unable to hide her blush,Natalie covered her face, trying to hide herself.She felt very embarrassed but had no intention of leaving.

If she were to leave,Brandon would be alone tonight with no one to help him.His injury would only inconvenience him,and he might even develop a fever.She had to stay and take care of him!

Johanna’s face softened at Natalie’s words.

She was relieved that Natalie wanted to stay on her free will.

Besides …

Looking at Brandon’s pale face,Johanna believed he wouldn’t be able to do anything else in his current state.”Sweetie,if anything

Finally,Natalie couldn’t bear the awkward silence. She covered her face and said,”Brandon got hurt because of me.I have to stay here tonight and take care of him.”

Once again,the room fell into an eerie silence. Unable to hide her blush,Natalie covered her face, trying to hide herself.She felt very embarrassed but had no intention of leaving.

Johanna’s face softened at Natalie’s words.

She was relieved that Natalie wanted to stay on her free will.

Besides …

Looking at Brandon’s pale face,Johanna believed he wouldn’t be able to do anything else in his current state.”Sweetie,if anything arises,you can always call your father or me. No matter what happens,we will be the first to support you.”a She then cast Brandon a warning glance.

However,Brandon just smiled silently and looked at Natalie with gentle eyes.

Natalie’s face flushed.She nodded and said,”Mom, don’t worry.No one can bully me.You should go back now.”

Unable to stop worrying,Johanna nagged a little longer before leaving the room.

Garrett smiled as he looked at the two people on the bed.When he was about to make fun of Natalie’s shyness,Brandon cast him a warning look.

Garrett shrugged and said,”Well,have a good rest.I won’t disturb you couple.”

When Natalie heard the word “couple”,she lowered her head and blushed fiercely.

Garrett smiled and shook his head before turning around to leave.

As soon as he closed the door,he saw Laney walking over.

Laney glanced at the door and whispered, “Have they gone to bed?”

Garrett nodded and pulled Laney away. “Brandon’s wound was reopened.He had more than ten stitches.Even I felt the pain when I saw the stitching.Natalie is staying in his room to take care of him.Let’s leave them alone,”he said.

Laney raised her eyebrows in surprise.”Natalie is taking care of him?Did she remember their past?”she asked.

“Not yet,”Garrett said while shaking his head. “Then what happened?”Laney asked,feeling even more confused.

Garrett quietly took Laney’s hand.Seeing that she didn’t reject him,a smug smile appeared on his face,and he slowly related what happened between Natalie and Brandon.

Hearing Garrett’s account,Laney was even more surprised.”You mean Natalie requested to stay and take care of Brandon?”she asked.

Recalling the lovely atmosphere in the room just now,Garrett replied enviously,”Yes,Mrs. White offered to sleep with Natalie,but Natalie refused.She insisted on staying to take care of Brandon.”

Without realizing,the two had already arrived at the living room.Garrett held Laney’s hand, and they both sat on the sofa.“We’d better not disturb them,”he said lightly.

Laney was still in disbelief as she said,”But Natalie didn’t react or seem bothered when Suzanne said she was pregnant with Brandon’s child.What made her change so drastically in just a couple of days?”

At that time,Laney thought it would take Brandon a long time to win back Natalie’s heart. She didn’t expect Natalie to fall in love with Brandon again so soon.It happened too fast!

At the thought of Brandon’s complacent look, Garrett gritted his teeth in anger.”With Brandon’s wits,he must have tricked Natalie into falling for him when we were not around.This guy is full of tricks!”he grumbled.

He looked at Laney pitifully and purposely added,”Unlike me,I’m still stuck sleeping on the floor despite my efforts in winning back my wife’s heart.”

Laney smiled and withdrew her hand.She looked into Garrett’s hopeful eyes and said, “Yes,you will continue sleeping on the floor tonight.Don’t hold my hand.”

Garrett’s face darkened.

Both of them were trying to win back their wives’hearts.How did Brandon succeed in a few days while he was still sleeping on the floor after a few months?

It was too unfair!

Laney pretended like she didn’t notice Garrett’s aggrieved gaze.Standing up with the document in her hand,she said,”It seems like I’ll have to give this to Natalie tomorrow.”

It was not until then that Garrett realized Laney had been holding a file with her all along.He became vigilant at once and asked,”What’s in there?”

After being slandered by Kailee because of fabricated evidence and losing his family as a result of that,he would feel a chill swimming down his spine whenever he saw strange documents.He couldn’t overcome the fearful apprehension in his heart.

Sparing a glance at Garrett,Laney replied coldly,

“It has nothing to do with you.”

Garrett retorted,”What are you talking about?

Brandon is my good friend.I’ll have to see what’s inside.”

He couldn’t overcome the fearful apprehension in his heart.

Sparing a glance at Garrett,Laney replied coldly,

“It has nothing to do with you.”

Garrett retorted,”What are you talking about?

Brandon is my good friend.I’ll have to see what’s inside.”

Then,he stretched out his hand to reach for the file.

However,Laney turned around and dodged.

When Garrett saw that,his suspicion was piqued even more.

“Why are you hiding it?I’m not having a good feeling about this.”

With her arms crossed over her chest,Laney raised her eyebrows.”Well,you aren’t that stupid.”

Garrett’s heart sank.He stared at the file maliciously.It seemed that whatever was in the file would cause something bad to happen,or it might even separate Brandon and Natalie.

How could he allow such a thing to happen?

Narrowing his eyes,Garrett pounced on Laney, trying to grab the file from her.However,he lost his balance in the process and sprained his ankle,falling onto Laney.

It had never occurred to Laney that Garrett would be so bold to snatch the file away from her.For a moment,she was caught in a daze, watching Garrett throw himself at her.

The next second,they fell into the soft bed. Looking at Laney,who was under his body,

Garrett was in seventh heaven.

Laney had been harboring grievances against him after what had happened between him and Kailee.No matter how hard he tried,the most he could do was hold her hand.It was literally impossible for him to bridge the gap between them.

It had been a long time since he had gotten this close to her.He couldn’t help but move his lips closer to herbit by bit.

At the sight of that,Laney’s heart skipped a beat,her mind went blank.

He didn’t look like he was going to stop.

Right then,Laney suddenly came to her senses and pushed him away.”Ihave yet to forgive you.

Stay away from me!”Her face was red.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Garrett’s eyes.”I didn’t mean to do that.I was just trying to grab the file bag from you.”

Laney got up from the bed and said helplessly, “Why did you do that when you didn’t even know what it was?”

“So what is it?”

“It’s the paternity test result of the baby in Suzanne’s belly as well as the hotel surveillance footage capturing Suzanne’s covert actions to achieve pregnancy.”
