The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 364

Putting her hand on Brandon‘s shoulder, Charis added worriedly, “The doctor‘s right, Brandon.Just stay in the hospital for a few more days.I can take anything work–related documents to the hospital for you.It‘s not far from the office anyway.Besides, you can always go back to the office during the day if you‘d like.”

Charis had already bribed the doctor.

The longer she could keep Brandon here, the more advantageous it would be for her.

Brandon was a little hesitant.He then pursed his lips and looked at Charis coldly.

“It sounds like you don‘t want me to go back to the company.Why is that?”

For some inexplicable reason, he felt that something was off about her.

Charis put on a hurt expression and said seriously, “Brandon, I don‘t want you to go back –because I‘m worried about your health.I‘m also concerned about your image.You can‘t expose your memory loss to the public.The more you stay in the office, the bigger the possibility that someone will found out about it.Have you ever thought about how dangerous it would be if your enemies found out about it? Although the Larson Group is very prosperous now, its competitors will leap at any opportunity to bring it down.”

Staring at her for a while, Brandon‘s cold expression relaxed somewhat.

“You‘re right.What more can I say?”

Then he stood up and left the doctor‘s office.

Charis ran after him anxiously.

Brandon was acting too willful.He didn‘t listen to her at all which made her feel a little helpless and anxious.

But on second thought, wasn‘t this exactly how he had acted two years ago? He devoted himself to his work and career without any human–like feelings, just like a robot… Everything seemed to have returned to the way they were two years ago, including their relationship Garrett had been in Barnes and only learned about Brandon‘s accident recently.

He tried to call Brandon, but he couldn‘t get through, which was confusing.

Finally, he learned from one of Brandon‘s subordinates that he had suddenly fainted during the search and rescue operation and had been rushed to the hospital by Charis.

Garrett smiled in relief when he heard the news.He had no idea that Brandon and Charis had fallen out with each other, nor did he knew the horrible things she had done.

He thought that although the two had some disagreements, their age–old friendship wouldn‘t fade away Charis followed Brandon back to the ward.She handed the file to him and said, “This contains all the project documents over the past two years.You can study them if you like.”

“Thank you.”

Brandon took the file and was about to open it when he suddenly raised his head and asked, “Why hasn‘t Garrett come back from Barnes yet? I need to talk to him.”

Ever since the establishment of the Larson Group, Garrett had been in charge of domestic businesses whereas Charis headed the oversea businesses.

Naturally, Brandon needed Garrett to reorient him with the company‘s local projects.

After a short pause, Charis put on a smile and said, “If you need him, I can call him now.”

Truth be told, Garrett was her biggest concern right now.

If he spent too much time with Brandon, he would definitely find out that Brandon had lost his memory.

Brandon nodded and proceeded to study the documents in his hands.

However, from the corner of his eye, he noticed that Charis was still staring at him.

“What‘s wrong? Is there anything else?”

Brandon paused and looked up at her irritably.

“Although you‘ve lost your memory, there‘s still something else I have to tell you.A year ago, there was a business deal that went down between the Klein family and the Harding family.In a word, Garrett helped the Klein family.When you found out about it, you were furious and had a huge fight with him.After that, your relationship was severed somewhat.What I‘m saying is you‘d better be careful with him.”

Charis didn‘t say anything more.She just needed Brandon to be on guard against Garrett.

The Klein family was his worst enemy.

Hearing this, Brandon‘s expression darkened.He took what Charis had said seriously.

Both Charis and Garrett were his allies as well as friends when he founded the Larson Group.He had trusted them.

But two years had passed and people could‘ve changed.

All in all, he decided to take what she said with a grain of salt.

Instead of exposing how he really felt about this, he said in a low voice, “Call him.We haven‘t seen each other in a long time.”

*******

Toting several bags of tonics and healthy food, Garrett arrived at the hospital in high spirits.

As soon as he entered the room, he found Brandon lying in the bed with several documents strewn about him.

“I heard that you just caught a cold in the rain?” Garrett frowned.

“But you‘ve been staying in the hospital for so long.What‘s wrong? Is it not just a cold?”

“That’s good.If something bad happens to Brandon, I don’t know what I’ll say to Natalie when she comes back.”

Yes, she firmly believed that her daughter would come back safe and sound.The sky was clear and the sea was calm.They could see the boats and islands in the distance.

The boats sent by the Whites had been searching the waters nearby for a long time, but they still found nothing.

Fortunately, they didn’t find Natalie’s body either, which was a good sign.

Beal and Johanna still had high hopes for their daughter.

However, the more time that passed, the slimmer the chances of finding Natalie alive…

Both Beal and Johanna knew this, so they could not rest.It was almost dusk.

The setting sun reflected on the sea, dying it orange and red.

Clenching her hands, Johanna stared at the sea, her eyes sweeping across the search-and-rescue ships.

Suddenly, she found that something was wrong.

Today’s boats were much fewer than the previous days.

Johanna raised her hand and pushed Beal anxiously.

“Why are there fewer boats out today? Are those the Larson Group’s boats?”

Beal carefully counted the number of boats on the sea and murmured, “All of our boats are there.It should be the boats from the Larson Group whose number has decreased.”

Johanna snorted in dissatisfaction.

“What the hell is that supposed to mean? Has he given up searching for Natalie? Has he lost hope already? I have to call Brandon and ask him!”

Before Beal could stop Johanna, she had taken out her phone and dialed Brandon’s number.However, despite her calling several times, no one came to the phone.

Johanna was even angrier.

“He doesn’t even dare to answer my calls!”
