The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 726
Kailee had meticulously crafted contingency plans for every possible scenario,
leaving nothing to chance.
While orch*strating an elaborate scheme to cause Laney’s premature labor,
Kailee had also pinpointed Garrett's location, drugged him, and posed him on the
bed for these scandalous photographs.
This master plan ensured that even if Laney survived the premature delivery,
Kailee could wield these incriminating pictures as a weapon to restore her
reputation and influence.
Laney, prepare yourself for exile!
During Laney’s childbirth, she experienced severe hemorrhaging, and only by a
hair's breadth was she rescued from death's clutches
In the aftermath, Garrett halted his work to devote his full attention to his wife and
child in the hospital.
With Garrett's unwavering support, Laney’s health began to improve
incrementally. Having Garrett's caregiving abilities paled in comparison to lan’s
professional nursing expertise.
Navigating the challenges of looking after Laney and their baby left Garrett
feeling overwhelmed and frustrated. Today was no exception.
“Darling, I've peeled an apple for you.” Garrett beamed, triumphantly presenting
a fruit so severely reduced that almost only an apple core was left. “Give it a try,
it's positively delicious.”
Laney’s "ps quivered as she incredulously inquired, “You call this... an apple?”
“Can't you see?” Garrett scrutinized the fruit in his hand, utterly convinced that he
had done an impeccable job.
Just then, a nurse entered to check Laney’s temperature and courteously offered
Garrett, “Mr. Harding, would you like me to dispose of this apple core for you?”
Laughter erupted from Laney. Offended, Garrett protested, “This isn’t an apple
core! This is the apple I peeled!”
“My apologies,” the nurse chuckled sheepishly. “I assumed it was the remnants of
a consumed apple.”
“Have some of mine,” lan suggested, extending a plate of perfectly sliced apples.
Standing beside Garrett with a courteous smile, he urged, “Mr. Harding, please
help yourself.’ The nurse's eyes sparkled as she commented, “Mr. Lopez, your
apple slices are cut so precisely.”
Garrett's chiseled features darkened, and he scoffed dismissively, It's just an
apple, no need for such fanfare.”
lan softly smiled and thoughtfully positioned the neatly arranged apple slices on a
table beside Laney’s bed. In a gentle tone, he explained, “Mrs. Harding hasn't
fully recuperated, so it’s best to cut food into smaller portions for easier
digestion.”
Clearly imp**ssed, the nurse declared, “Mr. Lopez, you are truly an exceptional
assistant. Your thoughtfulness shines through in every task.”
Garrett grumpily munched on his mangled apple, muttering, “It's nothing
extraordinary “
Laney diffused the tension, laughing as she encouraged, “Regardless of how we
eat the apples, let’s enjoy them together.”
Garrett's mood soured further by lan’s intrusion. His disdain for lan grew with
each passing moment.
Throughout their time at the hospital, lan consistently doted on Laney, charming
not only her but also all the nurses. This only fueled Garrett's resentment. What a
conniving character lan was! How could Garrett feel secure with someone like
that attending to Laney?
The more Garrett pondered, the more he questioned lan’s trustworthiness.
While Laney rested, Garrett pulled lan aside for a discreet discussion in a
secluded corner.
The two of them retreated to the hospital staircase, where a puzzled lan inquired,
“Mr. Harding, is there something on your mind that you'd like to discuss?”
Garrett halted abruptly and declared bluntly, “Laney no longer requires your
services. I'll provide double your salary as compensation, but you need to find
another job.” Unwavering, lan responded instantaneously, “I will not quit, Mr.
Harding.”
Garrett was caught off guard by lan’s blunt refusal, causing him to raise the
stakes as he said, “If you don't think it's sufficient, I can provide an additional six
months’ worth of salary.”
lan remained resolute, shaking his head. “Only when Mrs. Larson personally
terminates my employment or when Mrs. Harding no longer requires my services
will I resign.”
“When Mrs. Harding no longer requires your services?”
Garrett pondered in silence, experiencing an unexplainable pang of jealousy.
Garrett stared at lan, his gaze intense as he tried to read something in his eyes.
“Don't you think that’s a little inappropriate? lan, have you fallen in love with
Laney?”
Despite Garrett's intimidating gaze, lan remained calm and composed. “Sir, I
would never fall in love with my employer. I am a professional” he replied.
“I hope you can live up to your word” Garrett sneered.
lan raised an eyebrow as he spoke. However, “Mr. Harding. On the day of Mrs.
Harding's delivery, you were unreachable by phone and even arrived late. I
anticipate that Mrs. Harding will inquire about this matter, and I suggest that you
provide a clear explanation that won't disappoint her.”
Garrett's exp**ssion became tense as he asked, “What do you mean?”
lan looked at Garrett with a curious exp**ssion- puzzled by his sudden change in
demeanor. “I simply hope that you can make a clear and satisfactory explanation
to Mrs. Harding,” lan said.
Garrett fell silent, appearing troubled by the prospect of explaining the situation to
Laney.
lan went on to add, “In case Mrs. Harding asks about the situation later and your
explanation doesn’t match with Mrs. Larson's, it could potentially distress her,
especially since she is currently in a very delicate state...”
As lan was about to finish his sentence, a sweet and gentle voice interrupted
him, asking, “What are you two talking about?”
“Kailee?”
As soon as Garrett caught sight of the person, his exp**ssion instantly turned icy,
and he spoke with a guarded tone. “What brings you here?”
“I came to the hospital today to attend to some business, and I didn’t expect to
come across you,” Kailee replied calmly.
Kailee walked towards Garrett, wearing a surprised and joyful smile on her face,
giving the imp**ssion that she had truly coincidentally stumbled upon him.
However, it was only Kailee who was privy to the knowledge that Garrett had
been looking after Laney during her stay at the hospital.

Kailee knew that women were most
exhausted right after giving birth, and
in order to make Laney look worse
off, she deliberately dressed up and
came to the hospital to create the
imp**ssion that she coincidentally
ran into Garrett. This was all just a
ruse to make Laney feel worse. The

Feeling confident in her own beauty, Kailee believed that she could easily
outshine Laney, who appeared tired and haggard after giving birth.
lan noticed the subtle look of triumph in Kailee’s eyes and realized that she had
ulterior motives. He spoke in a cold voice. “You must be Miss Gibson. Don’t you
know that interrupting someone’s conversation is considered highly impolite?”
Kailee's perfect smile suddenly froze, and a hint of maliciousness fl**kered in her
eyes.
lan’s actions had repeatedly thwarted Kailee’s plans, and now she felt further
aggrieved that he had the audacity to confront her.
