My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Chapter 1205 Married Out Of Sympathy
Garrett steadily gazed at Kailee for a few seconds.
After some time, he closed his eyes. His voice was weary as he said, Alright, I promise.
He thought that perhaps this was the only way to completely get rid of Kailee’s entanglement. “Really?” Kailee expectantly
looked up at Garrett. Her face instantly lit up as she let out a joyous smile.
With an expressionless look, Garrett replied, “Only this once, though. After this is over, you must delete the photo and never
mention this to anyone-especially not Laney.”
“Okay.” Kailee nodded.
Now that Garrett agreed to go on a date with her, Kailee’s plan was halfway to success. She didn’t care who would find out about
the photo. She figured that the more people would know about it, the chances of her marrying into the Harding family would be
significantly higher. After getting a positive response from Kailee, Garrett pressed his lips into a thin line. He didn’t want to stay
there for another second. Just when he was about to turn around and leave, Kailee suddenly called out to him.
“Garrett!” Kailee exclaimed, looking a bit forlorn. “Was there a part of you that felt like you married Laney out of sympathy?”
Garrett abruptly stopped in his tracks. He recalled the complex emotions that he felt upon learning about Laney’s pregnancy. He
felt a mix of joy and pity. He pitied Laney for being an orphan and enduring so much during her childhood only to become a
bodyguard. If he didn’t take responsibility, what would happen to her?
As he thought of that, Garrett had to admit that he did, indeed, partly married Laney out of sympathy.
“A little bit,” Garrett candidly acknowledged. Kailee’s eyes instantly lit up when she heard that. She seemed delighted.
It was as she expected She figured that there was no way Garrett could fall in love with a mere bodyguard. That was why she
assumed that he only married her out of sympathy. “However,” Garrett firmly added. “I would never marry a woman just out of
sympathy. What’s important is that I love her.”
Kailee instantly felt a sharp pain in her chest. She couldn’t believe it. “What do you love about her?”
Since Laney was just a bodyguard, she couldn’t understand what Garrett loved about her.

A faint smile appeared on Garrett’s face as he looked into the distance, seemingly lost in thought. Laney is special. She’s kind,
strong...” Suddenly, he snapped out of his thoughts, and his expression turned rigid.
“But I have no reason to tell you this. Just remember our agreement. After everything is done, delete the photo. I want nothing
else to do with you.”
After that, he paid no further attention to Kailee and went out the door without sparing another glance at her.
As Kailee watched him leave, her lips curved into a satisfied smile.
She then took out the recording pen from her bag and watched the red light blink on and off.
She wanted to give Laney another big gift and break their marriage completely.

Meanwhile, when Garrett returned to the ward, Laney was already asleep. The glow of the setting sun shone through the window
as she held their daughter in her arms.
Garrett felt a sense of guilt as he sat by the bed and looked at this warm scene.
He didn’t want to destroy this beautiful moment.
However, since Kailee was backing him into a corner, he had no other choice but to give in to her unreasonable demands.
He thought that perhaps once the date was over, everything would come to an end and their family would return to their
peaceful, happy life.
Garrett tried comforting himself with that thought as he covered Laney’s body with a blanket.
Suddenly, Laney opened her eyes and looked at the man who was tucking her in. “Are you hiding something from me?” she
asked softly.
