The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 729

Chapter 729

Still looking ahead of her, Natalie’s sight blurred as tears filled her eyes. “I feel so bad for Laney. She just gave birth to Garrett’s baby. But he… he…”

Natalie trailed off and broke into tears.

She kept thinking of the naive girl who had taken so much in just for Garrett. Laney’s suffering started with Garrett’s parents constantly maltreating her. Then, after she got pregnant, she suffered under Kailee’s plots and games.

And just when they thought things were changing for the better, Garrett had to go and have an affair with the same Kailee.

As these thoughts flooded Natalie’s mind, it overwhelmed her so much that she couldn’t take it anymore.

As she burst into endless tears, Brandon pulled her into his arms and comforted her.

“Maybe it isn’t what we think it is.”

“But the evidence is right before our eyes, Brandon. What more do you want?” Natalie pulled away from Brandon and shook her head frantically. “I have to tell Laney. Right now! We’re not any better than that bastard if we keep her in the dark for much longer,” she said heatedly and rushed towards the car to execute.

Before she took two steps though, Brandon wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her back. “Calm down, Natalie. Calm down!” he said close to her ear.

Natalie freed herself from his hold and turned on him.

“Calm down? How do you want me to do that? How do I stay calm when Garrett was having an affair while Laney was dying? An affair with the one woman that is behind most of Laney’s misfortunes at that? How should I calm down?” Natalie shouted.

The thought of Garrett’s affair disgusted her so much that she felt like throwing up. She wanted to tear that mask off Garrett’s face and expose him. She couldn’t let Laney suffer in ignorance.

Brandon grabbed her and held her in place this time. “Listen, we can’t understand exactly what happened just from what we have. It’s very possible that Kailee made it seem this way. You know how she is.”

When Brandon’s words sunk in, Natalie paused After a short moment, she shook her head in confusion. “But… But what if it’s true? What if we’re not mistaken?”

“Even it is, we can’t tell Laney right now. Think about it. She just gave birth, and is still very weak. How do you think she’s going to take it?”

Brandon placed his hands on Natalie’s shoulders firmly and looked at her tenderly. “If we tell Laney this way, without thinking it through, we’re going to ruin her relationship with Garrett. And if we do that, we’ll be letting Kailee win.”

Natalie took a deep breath and nodded, seemingly calmer now. She looked up at him and asked in a low voice, “So, what do we do?”

Brandon let out a breath of relief. He was scared that he wouldn’t be able to talk some sense into her. “I have already contacted the person who followed Garrett that day, and Garrett’s assistant too. If there’s anyone who can tell us what actually happened that day, they’re the ones,” Brandon said.

“Tell me! What did you do that day?” Garrett spat out angrily through gritted teeth as he dragged Kailee into the hospital’s VIP room, and slammed the door shut with his foot. The loud sound of the door closing resonated throughout the room,

“Start talking! Those pictures? How did you do it?”

Garrett tightened his hold on her hand, his eyes shooting daggers at her as he waited for her to explain.

Garrett’s grip on her shoulder was so tight that it made Kailee wince in pain. Leaning gently against his shoulder, she complained, “Garrett, you’re hurting me.”
