The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 608 “Ah! Hey! Do you want to killwith that thing?” With a shriek and a moan, Natalie spun around and saw Derek lying on the ground, clutching his belly.

“Why the hell are you here?” Surprised, Natalie put away the taser and squatted down to assist Derek. “I'm sorry.” “Hey, | asked you to cstraight to her and greet her directly, but you said that you wanted to give her a surprise.” Wilder was also alarmed. He and Natalie helped Derek to a corner of the banquet hall.

Derek covered his belly and wailed, “My innards are in so much pain. Am | going to kick the bucket?” Natalie also got anxious. “Don’t make a mountain out of a molehill. My mini taser isn’t that powerful. Hang in there. I'll call the doctor.” “There's no need. Just press it with your hand. That will do it.” Derek placed Natalie's hand on his belly and continued to cry out in pain.

Staring at Derek with a poker face, Natalie arched her eyebrows and grinned. “Does it work? Allowto give you a soothing massage then!” She pinched Derek's stomach firmly.

“Ouch! Natalie! You!” Derek was outraged but he didn’t dare to say anything. Realizing that his little trick had been uncovered, he composed himself and straightened out his suit. “Are you smelling a rat? You even brought a taser with you! If | had been snapped by my fans when | stumbled just now and it trended on the top search, you would be the one taking the heat!” Sitting beside Derek, Natalie felt a bit guilty. “I thought someone was approachingon purpose just now, so | defended myself subconsciously. | didn’t expect you to be here.” Wilder stood in front of the two and said with a smile, “Don’t get him wrong, Mrs. Larson. Derek is here for the activity. Many film and television companies want to invite him to film his first TV series after he transformed to an actor from a model, so he had been socializing just now and hadn't cto greet you.” Derek glared at Wilder unhappily. He grabbed a strawberry from the table and popped it into his mouth. “It’s all because you've been pushingto mingle with those female bosses. Otherwise, | wouldn't have to wait until now.” Just a moment ago, Derek saw that Natalie was about to leave, so he cto her after dealing with those old biddies.

With a look of disappointment, Wilder pointed at Derek with his quivering hands and said, “You brat, don’t you know how good | am to you? You are on the verge of transforming your career, so you have to interact with more producers. They are all producers of hit domestic TV series. If you play ball with them, you can secure your reputation, which will be a feather in your cap in the future.” “Why are you always yammering like an old crow?” Holding his chin, Derek began to bicker with Wilder.

However, Natalie was thinking about something else.

Derek must have seen her going at it with Kathie and wanted to help, but he was dragged away by Wilder all the time. Was this the root of her illusion that she had been under someone's eye? Natalie scanned the area again with raised eyebrows of suspicion. People were constantly entering and exiting the banquet hall. She did not know any of these people and did not recognize any of their faces.

No one else seemed suspicious as she looked around. She then thought she was probably imagining things since she was tired.

Natalie, who was feeling much better now, got to her feet and looked at Derek. “You continue to socialize. | will wait for my b*odyguard by the door.” “To be honest, | would rather leave as well. We should go together.” Derek followed Natalie out. The moment Derek stepped out of the door, a crowd of fans surrounded him.

A fan said, “Derek, can you sign autographs for us?” “We have been waiting for you here for a long time.” Derek took the postcards from his fans. Immediately after putting his signature on two postcards, Wilder interrupted. Wilder apologized, saying, “I apologize to everyone. But Derek still needs to get swork done. He cannot stay here for too long.” Immediately after that, Wilder pulled Derek and said in a low voice, “I'll stop the fans for you. You go first.” At this moment, a luxury convertible car driven by Mesue pulled up at the door. She waved to Natalie and said, “This way.” Natalie opened the car door and got in the car. After that, Mesue turned on the engine. Suddenly, Derek jumped into the car quickly, putting his hands on the door frfor balance, and then leaned back against the seat.

“The convertible is so beautiful. Please givea ride. | appreciate it.” “You are the most cheeky person | have ever met.” Natalie groaned and shook her head in frustration.

Derek did not pay any attention to what Natalie said. He prodded Mesue’s shoulder lightly and smiled. “Miss, if you could kindly drive. Thank you.” Dissatisfied, Mesue looked at Derek and said, “This is not a taxi. Please go out.” “Natalie and | are good friends. Stop treatingso rudely. Also, you can’t go anywhere if you do not drive immediately,” Derek said slowly.

There were so many fans of Derek that Wilder could not stop them all on his own. A lot of them had cover with the banner already.

“Please drive on, Mesue. Let's go to a quiet place and let Derek get out of the car there,” said Natalie hopelessly.

Derek was right. It would be difficult for them to leave if his fans surrounded the car. Natalie was trying to avoid making things worse.

After getting the order, Mesue started driving, and the silver-gray convertible car drove away into the night.

While in the car, Natalie looked at Derek and said, “The coast’s clear. | will ask Mesue to stop the car so you can get out. There are bus stations and subway stations nearby. You can get hby yourself.” Derek stood up straight in shock. “I have never taken a bus or subway in my whole life. Leavinglike this is the sas abandoningin the middle of nowhere.” With a headache, Natalie rubbed between her eyebrows and said, “You also have another choice. Just call Wilder. There is a park not too far away, and there are not many people around this time. Tell Wilder to go there. We can drop you off there.” Derek screamed. There was a brief moment of despair in his eyes as he looked at the cold Natalie next to him.

“Why are you being so repulsive to me? You seem to be in a rush to get rid of me. Remember, we are friends here.” Natalie seemed relaxed. “Please understandif you think ofas your friend. Because of the recent scandals ofand Draco having an affair, | have been the focus of the gossip by the paparazzi. It will only make it look like I am indeed a flirtatious woman if they seewith you.”
