The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 665

Chapter 665

Elizabeth followed him and presented him with a cake, saying, “This is for you.Aunt Sophia knows that it’s your favorite.”

Frank accepted the cake with a concealed grin.

“I require your assistance with one more matter.Please keep Natalie’s presence here confidential.She confided in Aunt Sophia and me, and I cannot betray her trust,”

Elizabeth inquired warily, aware that she was making a significant request of Frank.

Frank scowled, feeling powerless as he said, “Honestly, there are guards dispatched by Brandon stationed downstairs.Even if I remained silent, Brandon would know Natalie’s presence here.He probably already had.”

“In any case, you mustn’t inform him.If I discover you revealed this to him, you will spend your life with Brandon Larson.And I will never speak to you.”

Elizabeth warned firmly.

Seeing the unwavering resolution in his girlfriend’s expression, Frank promptly consented.

“Alright, I won’t divulge anything to Brandon.”

The living room’s television channel was in flux, shifting and morphing into something new.

Sophia let out a tired yawn, feeling heavy-eyed.

Natalie urged her to rest, so Sophia slowly began her walk to retire for the night.

The front door then opened and closed shut.

Natalie looked up and noticed that Elizabeth had returned from seeing Frank off downstairs.

A sense of unease crept over Natalie as she asked, “Is Frank upset?”

The realization suddenly dawned on her that she had been too harsh on Frank.

“He’s not upset.He left with a smile on his face,”

Elizabeth said as she walked over, sat down, and switched the TV channel.

“He won’t inform Brandon about it, so don’t worry.Just stay here.”

“I already told Frank in the kitchen earlier.Please don’t take it out on him because of me.I can handle my issues with Brandon.”

Natalie was anxious that Frank and Elizabeth might argue because of her.

“It’s fine.Despite Frank’s usual aloofness, he’s quite timid.I was only trying to shake him a bit, and he quickly promised not to tell Brandon,”

Elizabeth chuckled and explained.

“You two seem to get along well.”

A smile graced Natalie’s lips.

As she realized they were alone, her thoughts soon drifted back to Brandon.

Elizabeth noticed she was preoccupied and hesitantly asked, “Did you and Brandon fight? Usually, you two seem to have a good relationship.For you to have run away from home, something big must have happened.”

Natalie was seated on the sofa, feeling depressed.

Elizabeth couldn’t tell what was going through Natalie’s mind, but a tinge of sadness was visible on her beautiful profile.

Once someone who loved to talk and laugh, Natalie was now unusually quiet and withdrawn.

“It’s not that big of a deal.”

Natalie didn’t want to discuss it any further.

As Natalie withdrew from the conversation, Elizabeth’s expression grew increasingly solemn.She had a sinking feeling that something terrible had happened to her friend.

Worried, Elizabeth asked hastily, “Please tell me the truth, Natalie.Is it bad? What did Brandon do to you? Did…Did he assault you?”

Natalie shook her head with a faint smile, deciding she shouldn’t disclose to others that Brandon had once suffered from amnesia.She didn’t delve into the details but replied, “No, he didn’t physically hurt me.Don’t worry too much.However, he hid something significant from me.Everyone around him was aware, and I was the only one left in the dark for a long time, like an idiot.That’s why I’m mad.”

Elizabeth furrowed her brows and said firmly, “I’m on your side.As a couple, Brandon shouldn’t have kept anything from you.”

When she finished speaking, Elizabeth looked somewhat concerned.

“But then again, running away from home isn’t a solution.You could have just had a heated argument with him at home instead of leaving with such a heavy suitcase.”

“I couldn’t bear to stay at home and see his stupid face!” Natalie replied, her voice filled with sadness.

“Were your parents aware of it? Maybe you can stay at your parents ‘ house before you and Brandon sort things out.”

Elizabeth was concerned that Natalie might not wish to remain here any longer and she couldn’t really make her stay in that case.

Therefore she believed it would be preferable to encourage Natalie to stay with her parents.

At least they could keep her safe.

When Johanna and Beal were mentioned, Natalie’s facial expression became more intricate.She clarified, “I cannot go back to them either.They aided Brandon in concealing it from me.”
