The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 392

Despite her calm and relaxed facade, Natalie had been discreetly on high alert since she arrived. So when Charis tried to splash her with boiling water, she was able to dodge it in time. The hot water splashed onto the floor, and a few drops managed to splash onto Natalie’s skin, leaving red marks.

Perfect! Now was her chance to get rid of Charis once and for all! “Help! Someone, call security! Charis is crazy!” Natalie yelled at the top of her lungs and fled in horror from Charis’s office.

Charis liked to keep a close eye on employees, so her office was located on the floor where most of the ordinary employees worked. As soon as Natalie left Charis’s office, she caused a stir. Her words were like a fuse, igniting all the rancor of the employees against Charis. All the employees came up to Natalie and anxiously asked, “Mrs. Larson, what happened? Are you okay?”

When Natalie spoke, her lips trembled with fear mixed with adrenaline. She pointed in the direction of Charis’s office and said shakily, “Charis suddenly poured hot water on me and said she felt disgusted when she saw my face.”

“Oh my God! It’s getting more and more ridiculous!” the employees said horrified. Everyone started complaining about Charis, airing their grievances. “Miss Turner must have gone mad from the fire! She hasn’t been the same since she came back!”

“She has messed up a lot at work and caused countless losses to the company! Not to mention the fact that she’s hit a lot of people here! And now, she’s even trying to hurt Mrs. Larson! She is definitely doomed now!”

“I can’t take it anymore.”

“Her face is so scary! I can’t keep working at the Larson Group like this with her around!”

“It’s okay! Calm down, everyone.”

Seeing that everyone was getting more and more restless, Natalie spoke up loudly. “We need to focus on the matter at hand. I’m sure Mr. Larson will do us justice!”

After speaking, Natalie sent someone to call the security guards while she called Brandon.

Charis’s office floor was still wet. Curled up like a ball on the couch, Charis covered her face and wept bitterly. She was wearing a mask and a scarf, so no one could tell if she was really crying or not. They could only hear muffled sounds coming from her, which was a bit scary. As he surveyed the scene in front of him, Brandon’s expression darkened.

“Explain to me, Charis.”

Charis stopped crying immediately. “It was Natalie. She kept insulting me! That’s why I lost my mind and poured hot water on her!” Panic gripped Charis, and she couldn’t think straight. She had never been so reckless in her life, and what she had just done scared even herself. At that moment, she only felt pure rage and raw emotion. She wanted to disfigure Natalie’s face so that she, too, would know what it would be like to be an ugly monster. The consequences of doing so never occurred to her.

Brandon looked at Natalie, who was standing in the doorway to Charis’s office, and said nothing. Natalie looked at him with an innocent look and asked, “Do you think I would do something like that?”

“You know what you did! You provoked me on purpose to make a fool of myself!” Charis yelled, pointing a trembling finger at Natalie.

As things had come to this, she felt desperate. However, Natalie said nothing. The angrier Charis became, the calmer her opponent became.

“Why would Natalie want to do that? You have no enmity with her,” Brandon pointed to the water stains on the carpet and coldly added, “Unless you can give me a reasonable explanation for this.”

Charis was speechless. Brandon had lost two years of his memory, which meant that he had completely forgotten about the feud between her and Natalie.

“Because you say nothing?” Brandon frowned sadly. Charis met his eyes and clearly saw his disappointment unmasked.
