The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 198



But what he didn’t expect was that the Klein family would start picking on Sebastian, which had dragged Natalie into their mess.

Sebastian could’ve exposed his identity as Brandon to Natalie, but he was already stuck in his woven web of lies.He couldn’t bear to imagine what Natalie would say when she found out that he had been lying to her from the beginning.

Sebastian closed his eyes and sighed bitterly.

There was no going back now.He had no choice but to continue living a lie.

Natalie looked at him firmly.

“I’m just trying to be careful.You can’t just take this situation lightly.’m worried about you. The Klein family is so powerful. What if Ritchie tries to make things difficult for you again?”

Sebastian was taken aback by her worried gaze.

He was Brandon Larson, known to everyone as invulnerable.

Perhaps Natalie was the only one in this world who worried about him.

Sebastian reached out to stroke her cheek softly.

Then, he suddenly leaned closer to nibble on her lower up.

Natalie smiled at him sweetly and shook her head.

Cupping his face in her hands, she kissed him back.

Laney was finally about to be discharged from the hospital.lt was late winter by now and the first heavy snow fell in Seacisco Early that morning, Natalie took Sebastian to the hospital to pick Laney up.

The ground was covered with a thick layer of snow.

People sank into the snow with every step.

“How about you stay in the hospital for a few more days? Your wound’s still wrapped in gauze.” Natalie glanced at Laney’s injury worriedly.She had many misgivings as she packed up Laney’s things.She was a petite girl after all.

What if she got hurt again? Although Laney’s wound hadn’t completely healed, this didn’t stop her from going about her daily activities.

Perhaps it was because she practiced martial arts all year round that her body recovered faster than that of ordinary people.

Laney stretched her legs and shook her head firmly.

“I’ve been on leave for a whole week! if I stay any longer, I’ll lose all of this month’s salary.”

She could go back and clock in.

After all, her job was to protect Natalie.

While they were chatting, they heard a commotion outside the ward.

“It seems I’m the last one to arrive!”

Garrett loudly knocked on the door to the ward two times before pushing it open.He was dressed in a black overcoat, with a few clumps of snow clinging to his broad shoulders.

Pushing a pair of silver-rimmed glasses up the bridge of his nose, he looked elegant yet gentle.

Natalie looked at him in surprise.

“Mr.Harding, what brings you here?”

Upon taking a closer look at Garrett, she felt that he looked a little different today, but she couldn’t tell how.

Garrett’s eyes landed on the gauze on Laney’s arm.

“This is my capable secretary.It’s only right that I come pick her up from the hospital!”

“Are all the leaders of the Larson Group so concerned with their subordinates? Is this part of their corporate culture?” Natalie wondered with a click of her tongue.

Unexpectedly, Laney turned her head aside and snorted coldly.Natalie thought, “Garrett’s the boss.If he came here in person to pick Laney up, it might be impolite of me to refuse his offer”

out loud, she said, “Mr.Harding, thank you in advance for taking Laney home.”

Natalie linked arms with Sebastian and smiled playfully.

“I suppose we’ll get going.”

After the couple left, Garrett asked his assistant to bring the car around.

Then he gathered Laney’s luggage and led the way out of the ward.

Of course, Garrett wanted to act gallantly.

But Laney gave him the cold shoulder the whole time and didn’t let him get close to her.

Laney reluctantly followed Garrett out of the hospital and waited for the car.

Glancing at the woman who was pretending to be fine, Garrett asked with concer, “How’s your wound?”

Laney shrugged nonchalantly.

“It’s no big deal.But, for the sake of Natalie’s safety, I’ll wait until ‘ve completely recovered before I resume my duties as her bodyguard.”

“Don’t worry.Sebastian would never let his wife get into any sort of danger.While you were in the hospital, he already made arrangements for another bodyguard to secretly protect Natalie.”

As he spoke, Garrett looked at Laney’s delicate face.

Then, he added, “But we all think that your ability is outstanding.It’d be best if you be the one to continue protecting Natalie.Sebastian said that after you recover, you will continue to be Natalie’s bodyguard.”

“Of course.I’m better than most male bodyguards.”

Laney was pleased to hear such words of praise and she couldn’t help but smile slightly.But as soon as she finished speaking, her expression suddenly changed as she whipped her head and stared at somewhere intently.

Confused by her strange behavior, Garrett followed her gaze curiously and asked, “What’s wrong? Laney eyed the wide-view mirror in the parking lot and murmured, “I just heard something. It sounded like it was behind us.”Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Carrett looked around the empty basement parking lot and saw nothing unusual, other than the neatly parked cars. Moreover, he hadn’t heard anything.

“Laney, it’s not funny. Don’t joke like that.” Garrett’s eyes darted all over the place and he took two steps closer to Laney. Laney didn’t want to waste her breath talking to him. While keenly observing her surroundings, she dragged him to an empty parking space.

Although Garrett didn’t see anything strange, he obediently followed Laney and allowed her to pull him to the rear.

“I don’t have time to joke around. We’d better leave as soon as possible. Maybe it’s the Klein family’s thugs.” Laney had been a professional bodyguard since she was sixteen years old. She had grown sensitive to her surroundings. Nothing could escape her. While she was talking with Garrett just now, she caught a glimpse of a furtive figure in the reflection of the wide-angle mirror.

If it really was someone sent by the Klein family, then she doubted he was alone. She had just been discharged from the hospital and hadn’t fully recovered yet. It would be difficult for her to fight off more than one person.

Thinking of this, Laney told Garrett, “Cail your assistant and tell him that we’ll wait for him outside the parking lot.”

However, as soon as she finished speaking, a woman in a hospital gown suddenly jumped out from behind a car. With a fruit knife in her hand, she hysterically rushed towards Garrett.

“You fucking bastard! I’m going to hell and you’re coming with me!” she screamed like a rabid dog and swung the knife madly towards Garrett.
