The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 189



What with Natalie’s fiasco, the media was having a field day.

In the span of just twenty-four hours, the reputation of Klein Silk Fabric was destroyed and its stock price plummeted.

“There’s nothing we can do to refute the evidence that Natalie posted online. What we can do now is to try our best to keep the news from spreading.Mr.Klein, it was your idea to bring in more reporters there...”

the secretary reminded Ritchie in a trembling voice, picking up the documents Ritchie had thrown on the ground.

Ritchie glared at him, speechless.

He picked up another stack of papers from the table and threw them at the secretary’s face.

“I’m not an idiot. You don’t need to remind me what I said.”

Things didn’t end there.

Brandon sent people from the Larson Group’s legal department to help Natalie file a lawsuit against Klein Silk Fabric.

The second they got the notice of the lawsuit, Klein Silk Fabric responded quickly and held a press conference in the afternoon.

Luna expressionlessly read a script in front of countless reporters, her face pale as a ghost under the limelight.

“I admit that I peeked at Natalie Quinn’s work before the show started.Then I bribed an employee to tamper with the upload date on the database.I falsely accused her of plagiarizing my work, and I did all this to gain fame and attention.1 am responsible for all of this. My actions have nothing to do with Klein Silk Fabric.”

In the Larson Group, Natalie stopped the video on her phone and sighed.

“No class! Klein Silk Fabric made an ordinary employee take the fall!”

Gerda clicked her tongue unhappily.

“Everyone knows they’re using Luna as a scapegoat.She’s just an ordinary employee.How on earth could she manage to do all of this? Klein Silk Fabric is really heartless.”

The other designers had also seen the video circulating the Internet.They began to discuss in hushed voices, but the general consensus was that Klein Silk Fabric was a cold blooded company.

Natalie pulled her chair and sat down.

There was no point in dwelling on it now that things had been settled.

“I can’t say I’m surprised. Now that Luna has taken the blame, we can’t do anything to Klein Silk Fabric.”

“And what about those designs? Are they really not gonna put them back on the show?”

Gerda puffed out her chest indignantly Natalie smiled at her colleague gently.

“It doesn’t matter.Look on the bright side.I have gained considerable fame because of everything that’s happened.Now, all eyes are on my work.”

In the end, Luna was put behind bars.

And Natalie had become an online celebrity.

Many people now knew her name and saw her designs.

Some even paid for it.

When the dust settled, Natalie poured all her energy into her work.

She had been so busy with this matter the past few days, so now she could finally focus on other things.

“By the way, Quinn, I’ve been meaning to ask you something.How’d you get the evidence?”

Gerda was talking about the videos that Natalie had posted on the Internet, which had amassed more than a million views.

Natalie froze.

After a few seconds, she broke into a smile and waved her hand dismissively.

“A very capable friend helped me get them.”

Gerda nudged her arm and asked curiously, “What friend? A boyfriend perhaps?”

Natalie’s eyes twinkled.“It’s a secret.Gerda, is it just me or do you have a lot of time on your hands? Have you finished your design for this month? Don’t come running to me again when the deadline approaches.”

“Ah! My God! I still have thirty-four drawings to finish!”

Gerda scratched her head and hurried back to her desk.

Natalie couldn’t help but chuckle.

Suddenly, she thought of the tall and straight back of Brandon.

Now that she thought about it, she realized that Klein Silk Fabric had gone through all this trouble just to set her up.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

It must have cost Brandon a lot to get his hands on the evidence.

Natalie couldn’t help but feel a little strange.

Brandon had helped her countless times, but she hadn’t really ever met him in person.She owed Brandon too much and she doubted she could ever repay him.

After thinking about it for a long time, Natalie finally plucked up the courage to send a message to Brandon.

“Mr.Larson, would you be willing to let me treat you to dinner? You’ve helped me a lot and I’d like to express my gratitude somehow.”

After hitting send, Natalie put down her phone and wrung her hands nervously.

The chairman of the Larson Group had probably tasted all the splendid dishes this world had to offer.

But it was a token of her appreciation.

At the CEO’s office of the Larson Group.

The Larson Group’s stock price had fluctuated over the past few days.

Now that the situation was favorable for the Larson Group and its stock price had more than recovered, Sebastian decided to seize the opportunity to put more pressure on the Klein Silk Fabric.Garrett hadn’t slept properly in the past three days, dealing with the bad press: He was yawning sleepily when Sebastian’s phone pinged.

“Someone texted you.”

When he saw the name on Sebastian’s phone’s screen, Garrett snickered.

“It seems your wife’s missing you.”

Sebastian smacked Garrett on the back of the head and grabbed the phone.

Instantly, his expression darkened when he read the text.

“What is it? Why’s your face like that?”

Garrett asked seriously, the smile wiped from his face.

“Natalie’s asking Brandon out for dinner.” Sebastian put his phone down and sighed.

“If I refuse, she’ll be very disappointed.”

Garrett leaned back with his hands clasped behind his head.

“Yeah. You can’t have dinner with Natalie without her seeing your face.Last time, when you and Natalie went to the company’s masquerade ball, you almost exposed yourself.lt’d be unwise to take such a risk again.It’s not good for my heart either,” he sighed.

Sebastian frowned and started typing out a brisk reply.

“Thank you, but there’s no need for you to treat me to dinner. You’re an employee of the Larson Group.I helped you to protect the reputation of the company.”

Natalie read his message and quickly replied, “But Mr.Larson, you could’ve just dismissed me.”

“If I dismiss any employee when something like this comes up, how will we keep the talented ones? Keep up the good work.That’s thanks enough, Miss Quinn,”

Sebastian replied politely, keeping things professional.He had deliberately distanced Brandon from her ever since what happened last time.He didn’t want her to suspect him of anything Reading his reply, Natalie had no choice but to give up.

Sebastian put down his phone, kicked the sofa Garrett was lying down on, and said, “I want you to relocate the one who had tried to force Natalie to resign. Transfer her to a subsidiary company.Then, bring Charis here.”

Garrett was just about to take a nap.

Hearing Sebastian’s orders, he helplessly peeled his eyes open and stood up from the sofa.

He muttered under his breath, “This job will definitely be the death of me.”

Charis had expected that Sebastian would want to have a talk with her, but when she received the notice, her heart still skipped a beat.

“Why did you want to dismiss Natalie?” Sebastian asked in a low voice.

He shoved his hands into the pocket of his slacks, and the light from the window elongated his shadow on the floor.

“I just wanted to protect the company name,” Charis answered defensively.
