The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 589

“Where is she then?” Brandon looked around and saw that only Natalie and Derek were at the table.

“She is in the bathroom,” Natalie said confidently.

However, Elizabeth hadn’t returned. Because of how Brendan was looking at her, Natalie felt even

guiltier. “Okay. Calm down.”

She then told him to sit down next to her. Sean, on the other hand, sat next to Derek.

“Have a look at the table! There are three sets of tableware, see? I think Elizabeth is coming back

soon, and she’ll prove that I’m telling the truth,” Natalie continued to explain.

Brandon didn’t respond, but he sat down to show that he was willing to sit and wait for Natalie to prove

that she was telling the truth.

Unexpectedly, a waitress came over and gave them the bill. “Ma’am, Sir, here’s the bill. By the way, do

you still want us to keep the suite for the two of you? If you don’t need it, I can cancel it for you,” she

said to Derek.

Confused, Derek glanced at everyone else at the table. He stood up, visibly shocked. “When the hell

did I ask to book a suite?”

Brandon’s face turned grim. “Looks like there’s no need for further explanation.”

Thereafter, he stood up and left.

Natalie glared at Derek and said, “What prank are you trying to pull off here, Derek?”



She stood up and followed Brandon right away. Only then did she notice that there were employees of

the Larson Group gathered in the restaurant near her.

They all stopped smiling when they saw Natalie.

Natalie lowered her head and continued to run after Brandon. She just now understood that she

unintentionally humiliated him in front of his employees.

Those employees from earlier must be enjoying the fact that she had a dispute with Brandon.

Natalie chased Brandon out of the restaurant.

However, the windy dusk and her high heels made it difficult for her to keep up. With long strides,

Brandon was about to cross the zebra crossing.

There, realizing that she couldn’t catch up with him, Natalie suddenly came up with an idea.

She faked a fall, crying out and clutching her ankle. “Oh no! It hurts like crazy. I think I broke my bone!”

Brandon, who had been walking ahead, hesitated before turning back and rushing to Natalie’s side.

“Take off your shoe. I need to see that.” Bending down, he examined her ankle, p**ssing on different

spots and causing her to yelp in pain.

“Stop it. You just sprained your ankle. Are you trying to pull the wool over my eyes now? You’ve learned

to lie?” Brandon saw through Natalie’s pretense instantly. He stood up, his face darkening, and was

about to leave. “Wait, help me up first. Hear me out please!” Natalie pleaded, grabbing his wrist.

She could see Brandon was not that mad now and hoped to take advantage of the opportunity. “What

can I do to make you believe me? Or are you going to storm off in anger without giving me a chance to

explain?”



Then the two of them would definitely have a fight again. Brandon took a deep breath and tried to calm

down. He wanted to solve the problem first. He told himself so, though he was feeling uneasy due to

the fact that the staff of the Larson Group saw Natalie with another man. “What’s going on in your

mind?

Please, tell me.” Natalie felt uneasy as she observed Brandon’s scowl and his need to speak, followed

by his prolonged silence.

Brandon was a really proud man himself. He grabbed her wrist and assisted her in standing up.

Brandon said in an unprecedented serious tone, “I don’t appreciate the employees of the Larson Group

discussing your personal life. You’re a designer at W Marks Studio and also my wife. I understand that

you need to communicate with other men for work, but please be mindful of the circumstances and

avoid awkward situations for both of us,” he said in a serious tone.

Natalie felt the urge to grip his hand. Feeling guilty, she lowered her gaze and apologized, “I didn’t

realize the Larson Group’s employees were there, and Elizabeth had just left for the bathroom. As for

the suite, it might be Derek’s doing. If you don’t buy what I’m saying, you can check the surveillance

video. We only talked about work from start to finish.”

Natalie became incensed at the thought of this. She made a mistake by agreeing to have dinner with

Derek, who was quite proficient at stirring trouble.

Moreover, did something untoward occur with Elizabeth? She went to the bathroom and then never

returned! After having this thought, Natalie decided she needed to go back to the restaurant again to

check if Elizabeth was alright.

“You’re definitely thinking about something. What is it?” Seeing Brandon’s silence, Natalie grew more

anxious. She walked over and hugged him, asking him, “Are you still mad?”



Just then, a familiar Maserati pulled up before the two. . “Hey, stop canoodling in the middle of the

road, will you?” Derek rolled down the window and glanced at the couple

Natalie was about to lash out at Derek when Elizabeth emerged from the car, looking worried. “Hey,

when I came back from the bathroom, you were nowhere to be found. Derek told me you and Brandon

got into a brawl because of me, is it true?”

Both Natalie and Brandon glared daggers at Derek simultaneously. Natalie fumed, “Derek, why do you

always speak gibberish?”

Derek also stepped out of the vehicle, hands in his pockets, and said, “I’m not talking balderdash. It’s

true that Brandon jumped to conclusions and got angry because he didn’t see Elizabeth and thought

that we two were having a date alone.”

Elizabeth quickly explained, “Mr. Larson, be careful about what you think about Natalie. Natalie didn’t

have dinner with Derek alone. I was there with them, but I had to use the bathroom at that time. I didn’t

expect to cause such turmoil bet**en you two. I’m truly sorry.” “It’s okay. I just want a good reason as to

why you went as far as booking a suite.” Natalie cast a sharp glance at Derek.
