The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 517

Chapter 517

“Mr. Wesley, did you know that Zuri reached out to our studio? Apparently, someone lied to her saying our studio won’t be getting to Iridescent Show. But we had an appointment before that and I told Zuri I would be there. It left a bad impression on her. So much so that she even denied my entry to the show the day I arrived.” “Zuri did tell me.” Draco’s jaw was tight.

He thought Natalie meant something else. Was she suspecting Dalores was the culprit?

Seeing he was getting what she meant, Natalie dropped the subject and didn’t continue.

As if on cue, Dalores came out of the ward. Her eyes were shaky when they fell on Natalie, afraid that she would say something against her.

“Anything left in there?” Natalie glanced at Dalores. “No, I went through everything and there’s nothing to be found.” Dalores smiled but her lips were pressed into a line. She felt like a maid in front of Natalie.

“Let’s go. I’ll drive Mr. Wesley back to his residence first.” Natalie still had not gotten any strong evidence against Dalores, so she let her go. Only for now, that was. Confronting Dalores outright would only be meaningless since she had no concrete evidence.

“You can go back to work, Natalie. I can drive Mr. Wesley home.” Dalores offered to take Draco home.

Draco waved off their offers with indifference. “I’ll drop

by the studio before going home. There’s something I have to deal with first.”

Dalores felt as though a hand had grabbed her heart and squeezed it. She had no idea what it was Draco had to do but she didn’t have a good feeling about it. “Mr. Wesley, you’ve just been discharged from the hospital. You’re still too weak. It’s not advisable for you to go back to work right away.”

Natalie sensed what was on Draco’s mind so she interjected, but in a softer tone. “Do what Mr. Wesley says. As for you, Mr. Wesley, you can only stay in the office for an hour.”

Draco replied quickly, “That’s exactly my plan.”

The two shared a smile, leaving Dalores by the sidelines. She felt out of place. It was she who took care of Draco for several days, yet he was only listening to Natalie.

Mesue then drove the three of them to W Marks.

Silence welcomed them the moment they entered the studio. Only a few designers were present as most of the work positions were empty.

Draco’s agitation vibrated in his voice. “Is this what’s going on while I was in the hospital?”

His temper was just about to snap when a rumbling of cracker sounded overhead. Colorful confetti floated down, and the light suddenly lit up. Tasha along with the other designers pushed the cake cart out together.
