The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 745 It seemed Garrett had really matured.

Unaware of Brandon's thoughts, Garrett said in a downcast tone, “Please tell Laney that | won't force her. I will give her tto calm down. And | hope she can givean opportunity. | will settle the problems with the Harding family.” Brandon agreed to Garrett's request.

Natalie had been nervously watching him answer the phone call. The moment Brandon hung up the phone, she asked with concern, “How is everything going with Garrett? Is he angry that Laney’s leaving?” A smile broke Brandon's serious expression from seeing the nervous look on Natalie's face. “Don’t worry, Garrett's very calm right now.” “Really?” Natalie couldn’t seem to believe it.

Brandon nodded and sighed. “After what happened this time, Garrett has been more mature. If | were him, | might not be able to be calm enough to simply wait in Barnes.” Natalie angled her head teasingly. “Then what would you do?” Brandon pulled Natalie into his arms and looked into her eyes affectionately. His tone was serious when he said, “I would find you right away and make sure you won't be able to leave my side. You'll have to stay withforever.” With her arms around Brandon's neck, Natalie smiled gently. “You wouldn't even let the whole thing happen, to start with.” Raising his eyebrows, Brandon asked, “You knowso well?” Natalie kissed him. “You're my husband, of course, | know you,” she said against his lips. “But...” A second or two passed before Natalie continued, “I think Laney and Garrett could have a happy ending. No matter how much hardship they have gone through, their love for each other will always make a way for them to eventually be together.” Brandon had a different opinion, however. “If Garrett wants to make up with his wife truly, he’ll only succeed when he reorganizes the Harding family. He needs to get rid of the shackles of the Harding family completely for Laney to be really happy.” Natalie nodded in agreement.

Garrett's next steps would dictate the future of their marriage. Through Natalie's help, Laney managed to go to another city with her baby.

“Mrs. Harding, it’s cold here. You'd better put on a coat,” lan reminded, as considerate as ever.

He opened the suitcase, took out a warm coat, and carefully put it on Laney’s shoulders.

Laney nodded her thanks. She did feel a chill.

As soon as the two of them walked out of the airport, several people surrounded them. The person leading the group gave a courteous nod and said respectfully, “Hello, Mrs. Harding. Mrs. Larson has arranged a residence for you. We are here to pick you up. Please follow me.” Laney bobbed her head as she scanned the airport.

Teresa said she would pick her up, but Laney didn’t see her.

Then suddenly, a surprised voice cfrom somewhere. “Laney! I'm here!” Laney heard the voice and immediately spotted Teresa happily waving at her as she rushed toward their direction.

“I was stuck in a traffic jam just now,” Teresa explained when she reached Laney.

Laney smiled reassuringly, “It doesn’t matter. | just got off the plane.” Teresa's eyes found the baby in Laney’s arms and exclaimed, “Is this your baby? She's so cute! What's her name?” Laney pursed her lips. “With everything that happened recently, | haven't had the tto give her a name.” Her regret oozed out of her bitter tone.

Laney’s haggard expression and exhausted posture was the first thing Teresa noticed when she saw her. It was like her bright personality had flickered. She wasn’t as energetic as before.

Feeling sorry, Teresa said, “You lost so much weight.” Laney teased with a smile, “What can | say? Pregnancy is the best weight loss regimen.” Teresa burst into laughter.

Relief settled in her chest seeing that Laney was still in a mood to joke.

“I'm relieved to see that you're fine.” Teresa didn’t ask what had happened to Laney, but she knew that Laney would tell her someday when she was ready to say it.

Pulling Laney in a gentle hug, Teresa whispered in her ear, “Laney, congratulations on your rebirth.” Hearing this, Laney’s eyes turned red.

Leo’s temper rose when he learned about the ruckus Vera had caused at the hospital.

“Look at you. You're getting more and more reckless!” Leo scolded with rage.

He pointed at Vera and continued, “The Harding family has a reputation to uphold. Yet, how dare you do something as shameful as snatching a child at the hospital?” Vera did not dare say a word as she knew she was in the wrong.

She had been feeling regretful since the moment she found out that Kailee was not a good person.

Why was she so impulsive? Why did she cause a scene at the hospital, creating a distance between her and her son? Now, she had becthe largest laughing stock in Barnes! Vera was utterly embarrassed. She lowered her head and whispered, “What should we do now?” Leo frowned and sighed deeply. “Well. There’s no other choice. We must personally visit and fetch Laney and her child. Considering us to be her elders, Laney should show us srespect and comply,” he replied.

Vera was displeased and grumbled in a small voice, “Laney is our daughter-in-law. Why do we have to plead with her to go home? Moreover, she’s quite disobedient now. She may not be willing to cback.” Leo stared at Vera and sneered, “Although you and Laney don’t get along well, she still treatswith respect.

I'm sure she’ll chif | am to step in.” Vera pursed her lips and remained silent. She felt that Laney would not be as compliant.

Soon, the two of them arrived outside of Laney’s ward. To prevent any clashes between Vera and Laney, Leo whispered to Vera, “This time, stand aside and watch. Don’t say anything unnecessary.” “I got it. Let's hurry in,” Vera urged.

Leo cleared his throat and pushed open the door while looking solemn.
