The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

In a daze, Laney squatted beside the bathtub and hugged herself, burying her face in her knees.

Listening to her beating heart, an indescribable fear began to take over her. She didn’t know how long

she had squatted there, but her legs and feet started to feel numb.

Then she staggered and stood up with the help of the edge of the bathtub. Her first instinct was to

check the Internet for answers.

Sure enough, it said that sometimes pregnancy tests were inaccurate, although it was a small

possibility.

Laney thought that maybe it was a fluke, so she went to the hospital to have herself checked.

The hospital was full of foreigners, which scared Laney a little.

This was even scarier than the first time she was sent to a hospital after she was injured in a mission.

After coming out of the examination room, she sat on a bench and waited for the results in a trance.

Thirty minutes later, a woman in a lab coat came out to confirm her worst fears: she was in fact

pregnant.

All of a sudden, Laney felt that her whole world was overturned.

“Miss, are you okay?” The doctor asked worriedly when she saw that Laney was shaking.

“Yes, yes.Thank you.” But Laney was so shocked that she couldn’t even force a smile.

She sat down on the bench, not even daring to think about what she should do next.

The only thought in her mind at the moment was to abort the baby. She didn’t want to be tied to Garrett.

Moreover, she wasn’t ready to be a mother! In fact, she had never even thought about becoming a

mother before.

Moreover, Laney‘s parents had died when she was very young.

How could she become a good mother if she never had one herself? She wandered around the

hospital aimlessly before finally deciding to grab something to eat.

However, before she even knew it, she subconsciously considered only food that was suitable for

pregnant women, avoiding that which wasn‘t.

When she finally realized what she was doing, she ran her fingers through her hair in distress.

She really wanted to abort the child, but she found that she didn’t have the heart to do it.

A new life was growing inside her body.

She didn’t want to kill it with her own hands.

But if the baby was born, it would be fatherless…

“This is your own fault.You shouldn’t have had sex with him in the first place!” She scolded herself

ruthlessly.

What should she do? Lost in thought, she didn’t even notice the man standing behind her.

The young man was Corey Finch, a new member of Pole Shadow.

Quite recently, when he was on his first mission, the enemy captured him and held him hostage in a

club. It was Laney who had rescued him.

He wanted to thank her in person, but Laney left the day after he was saved.

It seemed that they were destined to meet again.

He was on a mission here, and by sheer coincidence, he ran into Laney again.

Corey was pleasantly surprised to see Laney.

When he was about to go up to her to say hello, he remembered that this was the OB–GYN

Department.

Was she pregnant? Corey‘s eyebrows shot up in surprise. He quickly ducked his head and deliberately

avoided Laney, wondering who the father of the child was.

To be honest, although Laney was a beautiful woman, she was one hell of a fighter.

No man in Pole Shadow dared to flirt with Her..

There was only Garrett who managed to stick around Laney.

So was the child his? Garrett was the one who recruited Corey into Pole Shadow.

Thus, he was steadfastly loyal to Garrett and the two men were close.

He guessed that since Laney had come to the hospital alone in a foreign country for a pregnancy test,

it was very likely that Garrett didn’t know about her pregnancy.

Therefore, Corey promptly called Garrett and told him about this.

Garrett was stunned when he received the phone call.

Afraid that he might‘ve heard it wrong, he clarified in a trembling voice, “Did you say that Laney‘s pre g

nant?” Hearing Corey‘s affirmative answer, Garrett was so ecstatic that he nearly pumped his fist in the

air.

He was absolutely sure that the baby was his.

He was going to be a father! It took Garrett a long time to calm down.

Now he absolutely had to see Laney.

She was pregnant with his child, none the less.

He couldn‘t let her live alone in a foreign country.

After getting the details from Corey, he flew to Europe at once.

Thanks to his subordinates‘ due diligence, he soon found out where Laney was staying.

Laney had racked her brains all day long but she still hadn‘t come up with a solution.

On the contrary, she only felt more conflicted and frustrated.

While she didn‘t have the heart to abort the child, she couldn‘t let the child be born into an incomplete

family.

Laney was an orphan.

She knew how hard it was to have no family.

She never considered having a child of her own before, but now that she was pregnant, she felt the

need for her child to have complete family—which meant having a father.

Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.

All Laney could think about was the baby.

In a daze, she went to open the door.

When she saw Garrett standing outside, she was completely stunned.

Garrett had on the biggest grin and he held up a bag of tonics.

“Let me in first.” Before Laney could come to her senses and shut the door, Garrett had already

squeezed past her.

He put the tonics on the table and shrugged off his coat as though he owned the place.

Rubbing his hands vigorously, he whined, “It‘s freezing out! Europe is nowhere near as good as home.

Let‘s go back.

I‘ll book a flight for tomorrow morning.” Laney was speechless.

Rage and fury pumped through her veins.

“Why the hell are you here? And how‘d you know where I was?” Garrett was the last person Laney

wanted to see right now.

Garrett clicked his tongue and made Laney sit down on the edge of the bed.

“You can‘t get too emotional.

You‘re pregnant after all.

That‘s why I came, by the way.

It‘s my child, isn‘t

st?” Laney was stunned.

“How did you know I’m pregnant?” She didn‘t even tell Natalie that she was in Europe.

In fact, she deliberately told Natalie that she was going to America to throw Garrett off her trail.

And she only found out that she was pregnant yesterday.

She hadn‘t told a soul, yet Garrett somehow heard about it and found her here.

How was this even possible? Garrett squatted in front of her, held her hand, and said gently but firmly,

“I‘ll tell you everything later.

Now answer me this one, were you planning to tell me that you were pregnant?” Laney pulled her hand

out of his and shrugged helplessly.

“Even if I told you, what could you do? It wouldn‘t have solved the problem.

In fact, it‘d only make things worse.” Garrett almost laughed in exasperation.

“So you were planning to solve this all by yourself? Well then, what were you going to do?”

We’re Going Home! Laney lowered her head, shrinking under his intense gaze.

Smiling gently, Garrett straightened up and sat down next to her.

He stroked her back and murmured, “Haven’t you made up your mind? Take your time.

If you can’t figure it out on your own, you can share the burden with me.

It’ll be easier for two people to solve a problem than one.” Laney wondered how he could still be so

calm.

She looked at him and voiced her thoughts.

“You don’t seem to be bothered at all.” “That’s because | already know what | have to do,” Garrett

answered simply.

“Obviously, you haven’t made up your mind.

But | know that you’re too soft to abort the baby.” Laney glared at him.
