The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 453

“In that case, we’ll be taking our leave now.”

“I’m perfectly safe here” Elizabeth said as she walked them to the door.

“Don’t worry about me. The workers aren’t done moving things, anyway. The whole place is just a mess. Once I finished cleaning up, I’ll definitely invite you two back for a small home warming party.”

“Well, if you run into any problems, don’t hesitate to call me. We haven’t found Jorge yet, so we should be careful at all times.”

“Do you realize you’ve become as much of a nag as my aunt?” Elizabeth t**sed, though she did feel warm from Natalie’s words.

They exchanged goodbyes, and Natalie and Brandon made to leave.

They walked past the workers, who were still busy shuffling things around.

Jorge was lifting a cabinet when he accidentally met Brandon’s eyes again.

Fear immediately gripped him. He hurriedly raised the cabinet higher to hide his face.

Noticing that Brandon was peering at one of the workers, Natalie followed the direction of his gaze and asked, “What are you looking at?”

All she could see was a towering cabinet.

Brandon shook his head and looked away.

“It’s nothing. Let’s go.”

But the small exchange bothered Natalie, and the more she thought about it, the more baffled she became. She couldn’t help but crane her neck to take a few more glances at the man behind the cabinet. Upon closer inspection, she realized that this man looked a little different from the rest of the workers.

Firstly, his clothes looked clean and new, unlike the others’, which were worn out and stained here and there.

Secondly, she caught a glimpse of the man’s hands.

They were smooth and well-manicured, with nary a scar or a scratch. He didn’t look at all like a man who made a living from menial labor.

Natalie and Brandon continued making their way out.

Even so, neither could shake off the feeling that something was not right.

When Natalie couldn’t take it anymore, she raised her head to look at Brandon, only to find that he was already looking at her.It seemed like he wanted to say something, too.She knew there and then that something bad was about to happen.

A chill raced down her spine.

Natalie looked back to the third floor and blurted out, “That man just now! He is…”

Was that man really Jorge? Natalie’s eyes widened in alarm.

As for Brandon, he had already guessed as much.

An ominous feeling had been nagging at him since he entered Elizabeth’s place. It wasn’t until Natalie had spoken it out loud that he felt more certain about his suspicions.

“I believe so,” he said in a somber voice.th.

Damn it! The man must have come here to exact his vendetta against Elizabeth.

Elizabeth was in danger! The moment she realized this, Natalie gripped the banister and made to race back upstairs. She needed to prevent another sordid tragedy from happening.

Brandon acted quickly, his arm reaching out to stop Natalie in her tracks and pull her back, “Take her away,” he instructed the female bodyguard.
