The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 590

Elizabeth kicked Derek from behind and said, “Will you please talk? Why did you book a suite?”

Derek threw up his hands in surrender and protested his innocence. “I swear it has nothing to do with

me. Although I have feelings for you, I would never stoop to such underhanded tactics.”

He also took the opportunity to exp**ss his love, “If I care about someone, I’ll only pursue them openly

and honestly.”

Natalie found Derek’s words to be somehow logical. She reasoned that, although Derek was stubborn

and didn’t listen to others’ advice, he wasn’t a complete scumbag.

“Then who could have done that?” Natalie’s mind was racing. She wondered if the person who had

harmed her before might have taken action again.

Derek sat back in the car and said, “Let’s head back to the restaurant and get to the bottom of this.

We’ll find out who’s responsible as long as we do some digging.”

He then turned to Brandon, who was standing behind Natalie, and asked, “Mr. Larson, should I drive

you there? But given your suspicious nature, you might probably accuse me of bribing the waitress to

lie. Mr. Larson, as a couple, you need to have faith in each other. If you don’t trust Natalie, then I’ll

gladly take her. I’ll have unwavering trust in her.”

Brandon held Natalie close and replied, “My wife has already explained everything to me. I believe

everything she said.”

“Damn!” Derek sneered and felt a twinge of pain in his heart as he watched Natalie clinging tightly to

Brandon.

He looked away unhappily and was about to speak when his phone rang. It was Wilder.

As soon as Derek answered the call, Wilder shouted, “Did you go see Natalie again?! The Larson

Group called me! Didn’t I tell you to wait for me at the filming site? Huh?! The director and the camera

crew are all here, waiting for you!”

Wilder was so worked up that he could feel a migraine coming on. He hadn’t had a moment’s peace

since he started working with Derek.

“Alright, alright. I’ll be right back,” Derek said, not wanting to put Wilder in a difficult position. After all, it

was Wilder who had gotten him this job.

Derek glanced at Brandon as he got off the phone and stated, “I must now go for the shoot. The

restaurant is conveniently close by. You can go there on foot on your own.”

Elizabeth hopped in the car, bundling her coat around her b*ody. “Give me a lift, will you?” She wanted

to give Natalie and Brandon some privacy. She waved goodbye to Natalie and declared, “I’m heading

home now. You two have all the time you need to talk.”

Derek started the engine and grumbled, “You’re such a pain. Don’t you have a boyfriend now? Why

don’t you call him to chauffeur you home?”

“Watch your mouth! And just do your job. Drive!” Elizabeth gave Derek’s shoulder two firm pats.

It wasn’t until the luxurious vehicle had gone for a long distance that Natalie snapped out of it and

grinned.

“Shall we go home?” After his outburst, Brandon regained his gentle demeanor.

“I think the scene the Larson Group employees just witnessed would make anyone want to curl up and

die! If we just sweep it under the rug, we’ll probably be the subject of gossip for a long time. I want to

return to the restaurant and meet with the new Larson Group employees alongside you.” Natalie also

wanted to confirm whether it was Derek who had booked the hotel room or not.

If it turned out it was indeed Derek, she would never associate with this two-faced scum again.

Brandon knew Natalie well and understood that she desired to clear the air and nip any future potential

dangers in the bud.

“They’re all new around. I really should have a meal with them.” And so, Brandon returned to the

restaurant with Natalie.

Before the party concluded, people began to speculate about Natalie’s situation after noticing that

Brandon and Natalie had left.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen Mr. Larson lose his cool. He’s really a boss. Even when he was angry, he

was so commanding. He just turned on his heel and left.”

“Didn’t you see the timid and frightened exp**ssion on Natalie’s face when she scampered after him?

She must have crossed the line!”

“By the way, Natalie is so ungrateful. Mr. Larson has been nothing but kind to her. Why is she still so

amorous?”

At this point, Vivian emerged from the bathroom and returned to her seat. Seeing that the table not far

away was empty, she smugly smiled.

Seeing that everyone was in a heated discussion, Vivian joined them and pretended to be clueless.

“Did I miss something?”

Just as one of the women was about to explain, the person beside her suddenly nudged her shoulder.

“Hush! Mr. Larson is coming.”

The other woman promptly shut her mouth and plopped back on her seat. Vivian turned in the direction

of the door and saw Brandon and Natalie walking towards them, hand in hand.

Vivian was taken aback by the sight. How could they make up so soon? And why were they back,

anyway?

Everyone quieted down as the couple approached. They greeted Brandon and Natalie as usual, as

though nothing had happened.

Being the cold and stoic guy that he was, Brandon simply nodded and said nothing. Natalie, on the

other hand, chatted with the staff with much enthusiasm.

“I was dining here just now! You must have seen me, right? I was busy with work, so I didn’t get the

chance to come over and say hello.” She glanced at the several bottles of wine on the table and waved

a waitress over. “Please get these people two more bottles of Domaine de La Romanee-Conti and put

it on my tab.”

The waitress was quite familiar with Natalie. She and her friends had just ordered a Chateau Lafite-

Rothschild, after all. “Of course, ma’am. I’ll bring them over right away.”
