My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Chapter 1216 I Don’t Believe It
“I really appreciate it, Teresa,” Laney expressed with heartfelt sincerity.
Restoring the recording would have been a near-impossible feat without Teresa’s invaluable assistance.
Teresa’s smile beamed as she replied, “It’s hardly worth mentioning. When did you adopt such formalities?”
Laney’s lips pursed with a tinge of guilt. She hadn’t reached out to Teresa since her wedding. This time, she called upon her for
help, and Teresa obliged without a moment’s hesitation.
Laney was both touched and remorseful. Words of gratitude were all she could muster.
“Having said that,” Teresa suddenly interjected with gravity, “we’ve been swamped lately and could truly use an expert
bodyguard like yourself. If you’re interested, come by and give it a shot.”
Although Teresa extended the offer, she doubted Laney would accept.
After all, the Harding family was distinguished, and they would never permit their daughter-in-law to work as a bodyguard.
To her surprise, Laney’s determined voice rang through the phone, “Alright, I’ll give it serious consideration.”

Since sending the photo album, Kailee eagerly anticipated Laney’s reaction. But time wore on, and Laney never confronted her.
Had Laney not seen the incriminating photo and recording?
Or had she chosen to swallow her pride and humiliation for the Harding family’s wealth, feigning ignorance?
Kailee was convinced Laney wasn’t the type to tolerate her husband’s infidelity for monetary gain. She concealed the photo and
recording within the album, knowing Laney’s unwavering devotion to love.
Furthermore, even if Laney cowered, her best friend Janet wouldn’t stand idly by. She’d avenge Laney by confronting Garrett.
Regardless of the process, Laney and Garrett were destined for a divorce. Kailee had imagined countless scenarios but never
expected silence from Laney. This was far from the only source of Kailee’s frustration.

In recent days, she had tried contacting Garrett multiple times to arrange their last date, but he either ignored her calls or his
assistant claimed he was in a meeting.
In a fit of impulsiveness, Kailee stormed into the company to confront Garrett, only to be thwarted by his assistant each time.
When Garrett was in the hospital, he never left Laney’s side, leaving Kailee no opportunity to approach him.
Anxiety gnawed at her as she rubbed her temples. Kailee refused to wait any longer. If Garrett sought to avoid her, she’d
confront Laney instead.
With a scornful sneer, Kailee grabbed her phone and dialed Laney’s number. Laney answered promptly.
As soon as she received the photo and recording, Laney knew that remaining unresponsive would drive Kailee to take action.
Eyeing the caller ID, Laney smiled and inquired, Miss Gibson, to what do I owe the pleasure?”
Kailee had no reason to hide from Laney. Wearing a devious grin, she bluntly declared, “Laney, have you seen the little surprise I
left for you?”
Feigning ignorance, Laney replied, “What surprise? The allergy-inducing nutritional supplements Lola brought? Or the essential
oils that could cause premature labor in pregnant women?”
“Quit playing dumb!” Kailee snapped impatiently, “I don’t buy that you haven’t seen the photo of Garrett and me at the hotel, or
the recording pen! Garrett’s voice is unmistakable.”
Was Kailee’s composure already crumbling? Laney couldn’t help but smile. With a hint of amusement, she calmly replied, “Yes,
I’ve seen them. What now?”
Kailee couldn’t fathom Laney’s equanimity in the face of such evidence.
She scoffed and sneered, “I thought you were a woman of principle, but it seems you’re nothing special. How canyou stay so
composed knowing that Garrett betrayed you? You must be clinging to the Harding family fortune, right?”
“You claim my husband had an affair?” Laney chuckled. “With whom? You?”
Kailee confidently replied, “Yes, Garrett confessed his deep affection for me.”
Feigning ignorance is futile, Laney. The recording is crystal clear. He married you out of mere sympathy.”

Laney’s tone turned icy. “Kailee, stop sowing discord between us. I refuse to believe your lies. I trust Garrett. If you’re so sure,
have him tell me personally.”
Without waiting for Kailee’s retort, Laney disconnected the call.
On the other end of the line, Kailee couldn’t stifle her laughter. Laney’s feistiness was proof that she cared. Claiming she trusted
Garrett was Laney’s desperate attempt to preserve her dignity as a woman scorned.
