The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 709 As soon as Laney got out of the car, several doctors rushed toward her. The balding doctor in front was very courteous. “Are you Mrs. Harding?” “Yes, | am. You...” Laney paused, feeling confused.

“I'm the director of this hospital. My nis Emmitt Watts,” the doctor introduced himself. “Mr. Harding toldyou would visit. We are eager to serve you well. We have been waiting for you to arrive.” Laney was not used to this kind of scene. She waved her hand awkwardly and said, “I didn’t expect an entourage.” Emmitt Watts turned around and ordered the other doctors to leave. He made a gesture of welcto Laney.

“I'm happy to show you around.” Laney nodded and glanced at Natalie before smiling helplessly and following Emmitt inside. Emmitt gave the two ladies the grand tour. When they arrived at the neonatal unit, they gazed through the glass wall at the new- borns inside. The two of them were thrilled. Especially Laney. She was going to be a mother soon. Seeing the tiny babies in their cribs, she was moved to tears.

She imagined her baby would be even cuter. A baby cried, and a nurse entered the room, took the baby’s temperature, checked his diaper, and fed him.

The nurse’s calm and gentle expertise imp**ssed Natalie and Laney, who watched from outside.

Nurses constantly patrolled the rooms and corridors to ensure there were no accidents. Laney was satisfied with the professional management and the nurses’ attitudes.

After a thorough investigation, Natalie had discovered this hospital had received the highest praise on the Internet. According to data, the probability of new mothers getting postpartum dep**ssion after giving birth in this hospital was tiny.

Leo had put his heart into it. After learning this and seeing it all first-hand, Laney was in a far brighter mood. “No wonder Garrett's father chose this hospital. There are no problems with the levels of professionalism or the service here.” Natalie nodded. “Have you made up your mind?” “I have no objection.” Laney nodded, smiling Her heart felt light.

Leo’s past behavior had caused problems, but she knew after visiting the hospital he’d recommended that she was not despised. On the contrary, the Harding family must attach great importance to her and the baby in her belly.

She would not oppose their choice simply to go against the Hardings. After confirming the hospital, Laney sent someone to move her luggage into her ward and inform Lola of her decision.

Lola was restless. After receiving the message, she breathed a sigh of relief and reported the matter to Leo.

However, Lola was unhappy. She kept thinking about the way Laney had left her alone.

Although she was merely an assistant, Leo had appointed her personally. She felt humiliated that Laney allowed Natalie to treat her badly.

While she couldn't afford to offend the noble Natalie, Laney was a softer target. Before Laney got married, she was a bodyguard. Her marriage to Garrett elevated her status, and she becpart of a wealthy and powerful family.

The more Lola thought about it, the more she disliked Laney.

Laney didn’t know how Lola felt. She remained blissfully unaware of her assistant’s resentment. She was leaving the hospital after the tour when she saw Garrett there smiling broadly.

Laney was overjoyed. She started to approach him but stopped when she realized Garrett was not here to meet her.

Laney hadn't been seeing Garrett often ever since he took over the family business. The two of them spent very little ttogether now. As a result, she was surprised to find that he’d be picking her up today.

“You two are so adorable,” Natalie t**sed as she placed a hand on Laney’s shoulder with an affectionate look on her face.

Laney couldn't help but blush like a little girl. As she walked up to Garrett to hold of his hand, he just went right past her and walked straight ahead. He stopped in front of another woman, with a big smile on his face.

Laney was stunned. The look of excitement she previously had gradually faded away. Wasn't Garrett there to pick her up? “Hi, Garrett. Long tno see.” The woman greeted him first. She wore a crisp tailored suit that complemented her tall and slender figure. She had an air of confidence about her, which made her even more captivating.

She seemed like the perfect match for Garrett. Laney unconsciously clenched her fists. As she looked at the handsman and the gorgeous woman standing in front of her, she felt a slight sense of inferiority.

On the other end of things, Garrett hadn't noticed Laney not too far away from where he stood, and continued chatting and laughing with the woman.

He had actually cto pick Laney up today, but hadn't expected to bump into Kailee, his former classmate and first love, there. The two broke up amicably and agreed to stay friends afterwards. Now that they'd unexpectedly met, they naturally had no reason to ignore each other.

“Weren't you abroad?” Garrett raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile. When did you get back?” “I've been back for a few days. I'd planned on inviting everyone out for dinner sometime, but I've been a bit too busy lately,” Kailee said with a helpless look. “I have a lot of business matters to deal with.” Garrett nodded in understanding, and then asked, “What're you doing here, though? If I'm not mistaken, this is a maternity and child hospital. Are you married now?” Waving the documents in her hand, Kailee smiled and replied, “This hospital belongs to my family. I'm here to carry out an inspection.” After speaking, she looked at Garrett up and down and was a little surprised. “I didn’t expect that after so many years, you'd look more mature than ever before.” Garrett took a look at himself and joked, “Really? Aren't | still as handsas ever?” Kailee shook her head with a smile and said, Stop joking. “What are you doing here, by the way?” “I'm here to pick up my wife,” Garrett replied. Natalie couldn't stand watching the two of them talk and laugh anymore. She held Laney’s hand, and they made their way towards them and cut their conversation short.

“What're you doing, Garret? Chelp me,” Natalie called to him in a harsh tone.

Kailee was visibly shocked by this. She looked at the two women from head to toe, and then fixed her eyes on Natalie.

She must be Garrett's wife. Kailee thought to herself.

As for the other pregnant woman, Kailee didn’t pay her any mind. She didn’t imagine that Garrett, the playboy, would have a child while still young, let alone marry an ordinary woman who didn’t look like a buzzing socialite at first glance.

Natalie, on the other hand, looked quite chic and elegant. She seemed more like Garrett's type.

Despite this, she didn’t look like she cfrom a wealthy family, so she might not have matched up to Kailee after all.
