The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 442

Brandon reached for Natalie’s hand and squeezed it. He looked into Natalie’s eyes for a few seconds and then broke into a smile. He knew what she meant.

“Take this as a lesson learned and don’t make deals with strangers ever again.”

Seeing that he had driven his point home, Brandon told her the truth.

“The police will return the money to you after the investigation. Don’t worry.”

Natalie’s eyes instantly lit up.

Then she glared at Brandon and asked, “Why’d you lie?”

“So that you wouldn’t make the same mistake again.”

Brandon only hoped that Natalie could learn from this.

This time, she had only lost some money.

The next time, she might not be so lucky.

But Natalie didn’t have the heart to be angry with him now that she knew she could get her money back.

“I can’t believe Allie’s going to get away with this so easily. Going to prison for fraud is such a light punishment.”

“Don’t worry. She’ll get what she deserves,” Brandon said cryptically, implying something deeper.

“What do you mean?”

Natalie looked at him questioningly. She felt that the look in his eye was a bit strange.

“She has committed multiple crimes. If she’s convicted of all of them, she’ll be imprisoned for a good number of years.”

Brandon didn’t want to give too much away, so he didn’t explain himself further. But he knew very well that the evidence of Allie’s crimes were solid enough to jail her for a very long time.

The second she was put behind bars, no one could save her. Even if someone wanted to bail her out, it was futile.

Not under the Larson Group’s watch.

Of course, Allie didn’t know that the Larson Group had eyes in the prison.

Despite having worked there for years, she had no idea just how powerful Brandon’s company was.

Since her case hadn’t gone to trial yet, she was temporarily detained in the police station.

There were all kinds of criminals in the detention room where all criminals were locked up before trials.

Allie didn’t fit in at all.

The leader of her in-mates made her life a living hell.

“Hey, bitch! Come here and massage my feet.”

“Bullshit! I just made a small mistake, that’s all! The Larson Group wouldn’t kill me over something so trivial, would they?”

She almost blurted out the fact that she had a powerful backer.

The second she was released from this place, Vivian would send someone to come pick her up.

Ellen eyed her with disgust and spat out the toothpick in her mouth.

“I don’t give a fuck if you don’t believe me.I’m not the one who’s going to die. Since you’ve been massaging my feet over the past few days, out of the goodness of my heart, I’ll let you in on a secret. You were sent here by the Larson Group and you know how ruthless Brandon Larson can be. Do you really think he’ll let you go so easily?”

Hearing this, Allie was scared out of her wits. She staggered over to the door and cried through the iron railings, “Sir, can you lend me your phone? I need to call someone! It’s urgent!”

The prison guard outside did nothing but glance at her as though she was an annoying fly.

Allie’s lower lip trembled. It had been several days already.

Vivian had to know that she had been arrested.

Why didn’t she send her a sign of some sort? Allie suddenly felt that she might’ve been made scapegoat for Vivian! “I need to see Brandon! I need to talk to him!”

Allie kept yelling.
