The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 585

“Salome said that I’m doing really well. I’m no longer a patient, and I will let go all of the bad memories

that Jorge left me. So…”

Frank turned his gaze back to her. Before he could even react, Elizabeth stood on tiptoe and leaned

closer to him. Soon, her soft lips touched Frank’s.

Astonished by the sudden kiss, Frank clenched his fists, but soon loosened his fingers.

It turned out that Elizabeth liked him back.

Simply knowing this left him ecstatic. Not long after, he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled

her closer. It was just a light peck, but Frank wanted more. The tip of his nose brushed against hers,

and soon, their lips curved into smiles.

Frank cupped Elizabeth’s cheek, kissing her back passionately.

Their kiss lasted until she was out of breath. Only then did Frank relent.

Although it was already autumn, it wasn’t that cold in Barnes. Even so, Frank put Elizabeth’s hand into

the pockets of his coat, fearing that she might catch a cold.

Thereafter, they chatted until they eventually reached a residential building.

“This is my stop. I’m heading upstairs. Aunt Sophia is probably still waiting for me to have dinner with

her.” Elizabeth looked at Frank affectionately, unable to resist the urge to lean closer. Just as they were

about to share another kiss, they heard someone cough from behind them.



“Aunt Sophia!” Elizabeth smiled at her aunt as the latter looked at them while carrying a big grocery

bag.

Frank, on the other hand, cleared his throat and loosened his grip on Elizabeth’s hand. He then offered,

“Looks like you bought a lot of groceries, Mrs. Perry. Allow me to help you!”

While holding back her laughter, Sophia handed the heavy grocery bag to Frank. She inconspicuously

eyed him up and down to evaluate him. Not only was he polite and sensible, but was also good-

looking!

After taking the grocery bag, Frank went upstairs.

Meanwhile, Elizabeth and her aunt walked behind him. Sophia patted her niece’s hand and sighed.

“Gosh, Frank is a bit careless with the bag. Careful or it might break!” Afterwards, she added, “Still, I

can tell that he’s working hard to impress me.”

Upon hearing Sophia’s complaint, Frank lifted the bag higher and ran upstairs quickly. When Elizabeth

saw how he reacted, she chuckled.

Upon arriving at the door, Elizabeth bade him farewell.

Thereafter, Frank looked at Sophia and said, “Mrs. Perry, I’m Elizabeth’s boyfriend now. You have

nothing to worry about because I’ll take good care of her.”

“I may be old, but I’m not blind. You two were so lovey- dovey earlier that I saw it from a mile away!”

Sophia gave them a knowing look.

Elizabeth looked down, visibly embarrassed, while Frank just chuckled at the remark.

“Why don’t you come in and sit with us for a while? Maybe have a cup of tea before leaving, Frank.”

Sophia urged him to go inside.



After glancing at Elizabeth, Frank replied, “Mrs. Perry, it’s getting pretty late. I need to go back to the

hospital because I’m still on duty. I’ll find a better time to visit you some other day.”

“I understand,” said Sophia. She was liking Frank more and more. He was such a decent young man.

Once Frank was gone, Sophia and Elizabeth went inside their home. Sophia immediately held her

niece’s hand and said, “You’re progressing too much with your relationship. I recall that he’s still your

suitor the last time I saw him. Why did he suddenly become your boyfriend? The last time I saw Frank,

I thought he was kind of aloof and distant. I thought it would take some time for you two to get to know

each other well first.”

Elizabeth, herself, didn’t expect that it would happen so soon.

Thanks to Derek’s prank, Frank must’ve thought that she had another suitor. It must be the reason why

he became so nervous.

“Things happen, Auntie. Isn’t that what you always say?” Elizabeth remarked. She then peeled the

orange on the table, divided it into several pieces, and fed some to Sophia.

“Are you using the oranges to shut me up?” Sophia grinned from ear to ear.

In truth, she was happy that Elizabeth had a great new boyfriend.

The next day, in W Marks Studio.

At first, Natalie had no idea that Derek had harassed Elizabeth, but then she later heard about it from

her female colleagues after work yesterday.

The following day, she called Derek over to apologize to Elizabeth.



Truthfully, he didn’t want to come here. He had never apologized to anyone, but Natalie was making

him do it.

Reluctantly, he muttered, “Elizabeth, I… I’m sorry.”

“It’s fine. Actually, I want to thank you. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been with my current

boyfriend so soon!” Elizabeth responded positively. In actuality, Derek had done something good for

once.

Upon hearing that, Natalie brushed past him in excitement. She held Elizabeth’s hand, jumping up and

down. “Did Frank finally say the word? Are you together now?”

Derek immediately became arrogant again after learning that he had somehow enabled their

relationship, i

“Why didn’t you tell me sooner? I apologized already! You two must invite me to dinner to thank me.”

Derek became importunate again, refusing to leave the studio. Natalie frowned and looked at him with

frustration. “How could you have the nerve to say that? You didn’t even mean this for her in the first

place.”

“Even if I didn’t mean it, Elizabeth and her boyfriend started dating because of me! Oh, is he the cold-

faced man from yesterday? You two are a perfect match. You both look so cold and indifferent. It must

have been my excellent acting skills yesterday that brought Elizabeth a new boyfriend,” Derek joked.

Derek was very happy and proud of himself. He imagined he could tell Wilder to book him some gigs

as an actor. He might be able to make a name for himself and become the best actor because of his

natural acting ability.

“Stop daydreaming. We won’t take someone like you to dinner.” Natalie refused. She didn’t want to

dine with Derek because he would surely cause too much trouble. Derek snorted. “Natalie? Why are



you always so hostile to me? I’m going to have dinner with you and discuss the design that Elizabeth

gave yesterday,” he said.
