The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

After this incident, her impression of Garrett had becslightly marred.
“He is definitely a playboy. He dumped that woman so readily, which must mean he hasn’t taken their relationship seriously. No
wonder he changes girlfriends so fast, like how speople change clothes,” she thought to herself.
After saying goodbye to Natalie, she made her way to Garrett’s office to work. In order not to look suspicious, she had begun to
learn about her job as a secretary. She thought that at least she should look the part of a secretary. As soon as he entered the
office, he saw Laney sorting through the documents and arranging his meeting schedules.
“You don’t have to do all these things. Just leave them to my assistant to attend to,” he said.
Garrett walked to Laney and tried to take the documents from her grasp, but she quickly dodged him with a blank expression on
her face.
Laney left with the documents in her hands and said in an icy tone, “Mr. Harding, this forms part of my job as your secretary.
Besides, please keep a distance fromfrom now on. Thank you.”
She didn’t want to stay in his presence a moment longer, so she turned on her heel and was about to leave.For no reason,
Garrett felt annoyed. Laney’s attitude towards him was now obviously colder and more removed than before.
“Don’t mind what happened yesterday.” Garrett’s voice cfrom behind Laney.
Laney looked sideways and frowned, “Mr. Harding, you don’t need to explain this to me. Your behavior now will only make others
misunderstand the relationship between us.”
She then closed the office door, leaving him standing alone in the room. He didn’t know how to explain the true situation to her,
nor did he know why he actually wanted to explain it to her. She was just there to be Natalie’s bodyguard. Garrett took a seat in
his chair in an irritable mood.
He didn’t even understand why he handled what had happened yesterday the way he did.
Indeed, he liked to date young, energetic and beautiful women. Although he had never fallen in love with any of them, he was
good at buttering women up and charming them.

It was simply a misunderstanding and all he needed to do was to spend stcharming the pants off Tracey, which would
be an easy task for him. With just a few new luxury bags, Tracey would forgive him. Moreover, he and Tracey had only been
together for two months and there hadn’t been many problems.
Even if there were, they would be easy to solve. However, after they had got hand he tried to explain the situation to Tracey,
she still wouldn’t let it go. Somehow, he felt exhausted and soon lost his patience. That was when he really wanted to end things
with her.
Laney had been in a bad mood the entire week after the incident. Natalie knew that she was still blaming herself for the problem
between Garrett and his girlfriend.
Therefore, she planned to go shopping with Laney on Saturday to cheer her up. She bought schicken nuggets from a shop
on the street. It was a cold wintry day; the perfect season to enjoy hot, fried chicken. Natalie put a chicken nugget into Laney’s
mouth.
“Stop sulking! It has been one whole week. Perhaps the misunderstanding between Garrett and his girlfriend is cleared by now.
They might have gotten back together already.” After eating the nugget, Laney let out a weary sigh.
‘I don’t think so. They have really broken up, you know.”
Natalie was taken aback.
“Even so, it’s no big deal,” she comforted Laney.
“It was just a misunderstanding. None of it is your fault. Anyway, Garrett changes girlfriends faster than he changes his clothes.
Perhaps he was just tired of his girlfriend again.”
Laney smiled but didn’t say anything. She understood that Natalie was trying to make her feel better. However, her words didn’t
seem to help. She had to figure this out herself.
After shopping, they went to a scenic spot that had recently opened in Seasisco. Natalie pointed at the lofty mountain and said, “I
heard on the news that the snow would rthe mountain, making it look like a huge ice cream cone.”
She wanted to somehow make Laney feel better, and nothing better could uplift one’s mood than the beauty of nature.

Unexpectedly, a crew was filming there. As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, they saw that people had gathered
around to watch the shoot.
Natalie wasn’t interested in celebrities. But if Laney liked them, she didn’t mind joining her.
“Do you like stars?”
‘I only like action movie stars.” Laney smiled.
It seemed like they were shooting a soap opera. A huge crowd had gathered, and they couldn’t squeeze their way inside.
At last, the two of them found a quiet place by the lake and sat down. Just as Natalie wondered what to say to make Laney feel
better, she heard someone call her name.
“Natalie!” The voice sounded familiar. She turned around and saw a female star greeting her from a distance.
As the woman walked closer, Natalie recognized her. Emani’s contract with the Larson Group had just expired. She was no
longer the spokesperson of the Larson Group’s clothing brand, which meant Emani didn’t have to try being friends with Natalie
anymore.
“You just saw me. Why didn’t you cand talk to me? Luckily, I have good eyesight, so I recognized you from afar.” Emani was
wearing bright lip gloss. She smiled, revealing her pearly teeth that made her look kind and innocent.
However, Natalie was on guard. Emani was acting weird, and weird meant dangerous. The woman had never liked Natalie. Why
would she be so nice to her all of a sudden? Something seemed fishy.
Natalie had no intention of talking to Emani. However, a group of reporters and fans had already gathered around Emani, taking
pictures.
If Natalie were rude or impolite, Emani’s fans would wreck her life.
“There were too many people, so I didn’t want to disturb you.”
Natalie smiled and turned to leave. However, Emani immediately grabbed Natalie’s hand and sat beside her as if they were great
friends.

“We haven’t seen each other for a long time. How have you been? Have you gotten over what happened?” A frown lined
Natalie’s forehead.
“What’s wrong with her? Why is she asking such stupid questions? We don’t even really know each other.”
With a resounding slosh, the lake water splashed in all directions from the impact.
“Emani!”
Natalie was wholly taken aback by the unexpected incident.
The fans and reporters around were all flabbergasted by what they had just witnessed.
“What happened?!”
“Everything was fine a moment ago! What happened?”
Emani screamed and thrashed about in the water as she bellowed for help.
“Help! Somebody help! Please! Help me!”
