The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 679

“I returned to keep you company after leaving him with Natalie.” Garrett moved
over and sat down, fondling l.aney’s round belly lovingly. “Did you miss me
tonight, my little angle?”

He was so in love with the baby that he wanted to hold Laney’s belly and kiss it.
“I think your acting skill is continually improving. Have you ever thought of acting
professionally?” Laney bit the strawberry in her hand, expressionless.

Garrett looked al her with a surprised look, smiled, and said, Honey, 1 was about
to explain it to you, but you've already guessed it.” He had planned to tell her tire
whole truth.

With a faint smile, Laney said, “Don’t forget what my job was before. It's easy-
peasy to figure out your ruses. Natalie wouldn't have fallen into your trap tonight
weren't it for her devotion to Brandon.”

Garrett sighed and cradled Laney in his arms. She was about to give birth, but
Garrett still effortlessly lifted her, placed her on his lap, and said, “You are still too
light. You need to eat more. By the way, you didn't see how embarrassed
Brandon was tonight, did you? That was really funny!”

“I'm sure it took him a lot of effort to make Natalie forgive him. I knew he liked her
while 1 was a bodyguard for the Larson Group. And he deserves a second
chance.”

She sighed slightly, thumped Garrett's arm, and flirtatiously said, “You're not
allowed to come back so late in the future. I was really concerned about you.”
“Once I finish my work in a few days, I'll stay with you every single day.”

Garrett suddenly smiled and sighed, his hand on her belly. “You have excellent
anti-reconnaissance skills, and our baby must be extremely intelligent in the
future. It would be preferable if the baby is a girl. She must be beautiful, with big
eyes like yours.”

“We don’t know the gender yet. Do you just assume it's a girl? I believe your
parents are looking forward to having a grandson.” Laney seemed concerned.
Suddenly, she frowned, covered her belly, and breathed deeply. “The baby
seems to be kicking me.”

Garrett jumped to his feet, carried her to the bed, pointed at her belly, and said,
“The baby is strong and likes to kick at night. It's likely a boy.”

Laney lay down on the bed with difficulties. She was still concerned after giving it
some thought. “Please, give me my phone. I'm worried Natalie may call me later.”
Frowning, Garrett said, “Don’t worry about Brandon and Natalie now that you're
so tired Just rest. I'll tell you all about it in the morning.”

The next morning, Brandon turned over to cuddle Natalie beside him, but the
thing he touched was unexpectedly soft. When he opened his eyes, he found
himself holding a pillow.

He hurried downstairs. Natalie was having breakfast. She pointed at the opposite
seat when she saw him.

A spread of delicious breakfast was on the table, with toast, eggs and sausages.
Brandon sat down and took a subconscious look around. This wasn't their own
house, but Malus Bay, the estate belonged to the White family.

“Well, let's eat. What exactly are you looking at?” Natalie look a tissue and wiped
her lips slowly. She said calmly, “I should not have given in to temptation last
night. 1 regretted it when I woke up today. Please eat breakfast and leave, or 1
will find another place to live.”

“But we've reconciled, haven't we?” Brandon paused his eating and asked,
hoarsely, “Or why did we sleep together last night?”

“You can forget about what happened last night. I'm leaving right now. Take your
time, and remember to clean up after breakfast.” Natalie eventually got to her
feet and left the villa.

Brandon placed down the fork and rubbed his hair indignantly. His eyes glowed
with rage.

He had assumed that Natalie had forgiven him after last night's sex.

He picked up his phone and dialed a number after some thought. “Sean, go
investigate which houses are owned by the White family around Malus Bay.”

He would relocate here because Natalie refused to go back. Even though Malus
Bay was quite far from the downtown, it didn’t matter.

Sean soon called back and promptly shared his findings. “The Malus Bay was
initially a development venture of the White family. The government had intended
to construct a subway to connect this neighborhood to the downtown area, but
the project was scrapped due to insufficient funding. Hence only a handful of
villas were sold due to their low investment potential, and the remaining
properties are still up for sale. Mr. Larson, are you considering purchasing a villa
there?”

After hearing that, Brandon drank some water and made a displeased face
toward the milk, He then inquired over the phone, “Tell me more about the design
of the houses there.” Regarding the design of the houses, Sean reported in a
clear voice, “It's said that the villas were all personally designed by Mrs. White
herself, and the houses are close to one another.”

“Sounds good. Purchase the two villas adjacent to

Natalie's current residence. Put my things at the villa next door in the afternoon.
Since my mother-in-law designed the villas, whatever price they ask for, just give
them. Brandon rubbed his eyebrows, indicating the end of the conversation.
Sean addressed a valid concern. “Mr. Larson, money wasn't the problem here.
The thing is, do you think the White family will be willing to sell once they find out
you're the buyer? Both Beal and Johanna are wealthy and may not be motivated
by monetary gain.” “All taken care of, Sean. I have someone to help me,”
Brandon said with a smile before ending the call. Now in the White family. “A bit
harder... Harder... Yes, that's perfect.” Johanna sat on the sofa, curled her toes,
and closed her eyes in pleasure. Beal stood behind Johanna, giving her a
massage, and asked, “How does it feel? Do you think my massaging skills have
improved?” “Yeah, you may work as a masseur to support Natalie and me if we
ever go bankrupt.” Johanna appeared calm, with a grin on her face.

Just as she was enjoying the massage, Johanna’s phone rang.

“Hello, what is it?”

“We just got a substantial order, Mrs. White.

Brandon Larson desires to purchase some houses in Malus Bay.”

Johanna was taken aback by the news. She blinked and chuckled as she said,
“I'll need time to think about this. I'll let you know my response later.” Johanna
hung up the phone, pushed away Beals hands and sat upright. “Brandon intends
to purchase the houses in Malus Bay. How did he find out that Natalie was
residing there? Did you tell him?”

Beal sat down next to Johanna after chuckling and removing his rolled-up
sleeves. “I am surprised by how quickly he moved. I was only concerned that the
houses in Malus Bay wouldn't sell. We dont have to be concerned about it
anymore. He's come to our rescue.”

“Do you think I require his financial assistance?” Johanna shot Beal an impatient
look, shoved him away, and exclaimed, “Get out! It irritates me to even look at
you right now. Why did you side with

Brandon yet again?”

Beal's eyes softened as he gently pulled at Johanna’s sleeve and said in a
patient tone,

“Would you like to hear my reason?”

Johanna let out a snort and remained silent.

Beal's voice softened as he tried to persuade Johanna. He reminded her when
Brandon had come to apologize to Natalie and had brought Johanna her favorite
snacks. He suggested that this gesture showed Brandon's good intentions and
that perhaps they could forgive him. He pointed out that Johanna had already
eaten most of the ice cream Brandon had bought, and she ought to give him a
chance.
