The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 559

Chapter 559

“Step away! We’re only taking the woman in, no one else!” The security guard barked angrily, outraged by Jethro’s lack of discretion.

“Who knows what you’ll do to my wife? That woman is carrying my child! I have to be by her side and take care of her!” Jethro was drenched. His hair and clothes were stuck to his b*ody, making him look like some s*eedy rat from the sewers.

The security guard looked back at Natalie and waited for her order.

Jethro turned to her as well. “Mrs. Larson!” he cried out as he fell to his knees. “Please let me in, so I can keep my wife company. I’m really worried. She’s about to give birth!”

“You’ll only stir up trouble if you come inside,” Natalie said patiently. “I have to take care of the interests of the Larson Group and all the employees here before anything else. I’m sorry, but I can’t let you in. Don’t worry; we won’t do anything to your wife. You can watch over her through the glass door.”

But Jethro rubbed his palms together and kept begging. “Why would I make trouble at a time like this? Please, if you don’t believe me, I am willing to swear upon anything you want. I just want my wife and child to be safe. Here, look! I swear that I will never cause any trouble in the Larson Group again.”

Never again? That was a rather bold choice of words, and the promise certainly carried some weight.

Natalie held out her hand and borrowed the recorder pen from Estella. иσνєℓσ “In order to keep you from going back on your word, I want you to swear here and now that you will accept the compensation offered by the Larson Group, and you won’t hold any protests in the future. You must also promise to never spread any false rumors against the Larson Group again.”

Jethro was visibly stunned, and his eyes flashed with cunning. He didn’t expect Natalie to entrap him like this. He needed to enter the building, though. To do that, he had no choice but to agree to everything she said, on the record.

After getting what she wanted, Natalie put the device away and signaled at the security guard. “Let him in.”

Jethro assisted his frail wife in walking into the hall.

Natalie then requested that the receptionist bring them clean towels and warm drinks.

“I’ll put some pillows around your waist. It will help you feel more comfortable.” Natalie placed two pillows on the chair where the expecting mother would sit.

“Oh, it seems that you know these things so well, Mrs. Larson. Do you have any children at home?” The pregnant woman’s face was still pale, but she didn’t seem to be in so much pain anymore.

Natalie smiled. “I don’t have a baby yet, but my best friend is in the middle stage of her pregnancy and is feeling sore all over. I often see her lying on the bed like this.”

The pregnant woman nodded, holding a cup, and looked at Jethro, who was sitting next to her and busy checking his phone.

She looked at Natalie and said guiltily, “Mrs. Larson, thank you for letting me in. In fact, today’s demonstration…” The pregnant woman was about to say something but stopped on a second thought.

Natalie could tell she was feeling very guilty. On the other hand, Jethro sat on the sofa and played on his phone as soon as he walked in. Natalie guessed that he was very cold to his wife at home.

Despite her pregnancy, the poor woman had to go out to protest. Most likely, Jethro forced her to do so.

“I understand. You rest until the ambulance arrives.” After a few moments, Natalie checked the time and thought that the interview would have been over. “Go and inform Mr. Larson about what happened here,” she said to the security guard.
