The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 398

Brandon felt relieved. He turned to look outside, lost in thought. It was a sunny day, almost as if the universe was aligning for them.

After a while, Brandon looked at Charis and spoke frankly. “It’s good to see you improving. Garrett has decided to take over his family business, and The Larson Group needs you. Are you ready to return?”

The Larson Group truly needed her.

After a moment of silence, Charis sketched a smile. “Of course.”

Three days later, Charis returned to the office and resumed her work.

Her sudden return surprised everyone at The Larson Group. They had witnessed how broken she was when she left, and her presence made them uncomfortable. Were they in for revenge? But their worries never materialized.

Charis treated everyone with kindness, just like the old Charis. Moreover, she proved to be an efficient worker, still the capable woman she had always been.

Brandon noticed her exceptional performance and started assigning her important projects.

When Natalie heard that Charis had recovered and returned to work, she felt shocked and helpless. It seemed that Charis would remain a formidable opponent. However, Natalie didn’t want to waste her energy seeking revenge. She was content with her career and her life with Brandon.

Since their work schedules often differed, Natalie would prepare lunch and bring it to Brandon’s office whenever she visited Seacisco. They cherished their lunch hours together, spending quality time like a young couple in love.

One day, as Natalie was bringing lunch to Brandon’s office as usual, she encountered Charis in the hallway. Ignoring her, Natalie walked past her towards the elevator.

Suddenly, Charis called out from behind, “Please, wait a minute.”

Natalie frowned and turned to look at her. “Yes?”

“There’s something I wanted to talk to you about. Can you accompany me to my office?”

Natalie’s intuition warned her that something was amiss.

“Nope, what do you want from me?” Natalie confronted Charis, fully aware of the countless ways Charis had hurt her in the past. She refused to believe that Charis thought she could get away with more.

“Don’t worry. We’re in your husband’s territory. I wouldn’t harm you,” Charis replied, a sly smile playing on his lips. His mask barely concealed his face this time.

Anxiety gnawed at Natalie as she bit her lower lip.

She pondered whether Charis truly had no ill intentions or if he simply didn’t want to cause a scene here. Besides, she had just completed rehab and didn’t want any trouble.
