The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 515

Chapter 515

He stood in the aisle between Natalie and Derek’s seats, carefully scrutinizing Derek’s business card. At last, he threw it back onto Derek’s pizza box.

“If you want to cooperate with Draco Wesley,” he said to Derek coldly, “you should pay a visit to W Marks in person. It’s insincere if you ask someone else to pass your card along. Plus, don’t bother my wife.”

Derek pursed his lips and stood up straight. He looked at Brandon with an unfriendly expression. Brandon, who was half a head taller than Derek, put his hands in his pockets and looked down at Derek churlishly.

The two men eyeballed one another, and the atmosphere grew tense.

Afraid they might fight, Natalie reached out her hand and pulled Brandon back into his seat. “The plane is about to land,” she urged. “Don’t just stand there.”

Derek returned to his seat and, for the moment, their battle was adjourned.

The stewardess’ voice soon came over the loudspeaker; the plane had arrived at Barnes’ airspace.

Watching the clouds billowing past the window, Natalie suddenly heard the man complaining. “You went to a show and brought back an admirer.”

She turned to look in the direction of the complaint. Brandon was casually reading a magazine, as though nothing had happened. He didn’t even look like he’d just been speaking.

Natalie was amused. In the past, when Charis had pestered Brandon, Natalie had been jealous, too. Brandon hadn’t known about that, though.

“I didn’t expect you to be like this,” Natalie said playfully. She turned her head to look at Brandon, her eyes smiling. Brandon frowned. He didn’t say anything more, but began flipping the pages of the magazine more aggressively.

Just as the plane was about to land, it jolted suddenly, several times.

The smile on Natalie’s face disappeared, and her chest tightened. She instinctively held Brandon’s hand.

At first, Brandon didn’t respond. Then, when he saw that Natalie was scared, he immediately held her hand and said, “Don’t worry. It’s normal for the plane to toss up and down a bit when it lands.”

Natalie nodded silently, still covering her chest. Gradually, she managed to calm down.

Brandon and Natalie held each other’s hand tightly until the plane came to a stop.

“Let go of me already,” said Natalie, flustered. “I’m going to take my backpack.” Blushing, she tried to get rid of him. Brandon still held her hand. Graciously, he took the backpack from Natalie, and they exited the plane together affectionately.

Derek walked behind them, his eyes hidden behind sunglasses, watching their intertwined hands.

“Stop watching. Let’s go. We have something important to do.” Seeing Derek absent-minded, Wilder elbowed him to get his attention.

“Wilder, do you think married couples still feel passionate about each other after many years?” The sudden question startled Wilder, who was still single.

“How should I know? Only married couples know how marriage works.” Afraid that Derek might really fall in love with Natalie and get himself into trouble, Wilder warned him, “Whatever it is that you’re thinking, stop it. I’ve heard that Brandon and his wife have a really strong relationship that no one can destroy. Besides, the Larson Group is not easy to deal with. Your career is on the rise. Don’t misstep at this moment.”

But Derek didn’t take Wilder’s words seriously.
