The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 558

Chapter 558

Estella was so enthusiastically interviewing some of Natalie’s former employees. She held Natalie’s hand, wanting to chat with others in the design department.

“We should call it a day, Estella. I think you have taken enough materials.” Following Estella around, they had already talked to the security guards, cleaners, and receptionists in the hall. Natalie’s voice was hoarse by now. The more Estella listened, the more excited she became. She was practically bouncing as she said, “You and Brandon’s love story is so interesting. Everyone sees Brandon as this calm and cold, even ruthless boss. He never mixes up personal feelings when talking about work. But with you, he’s full of love and warmth.”

“This is getting more and more ridiculous.” Natalie felt helpless.

The cleaning lady joined in, sounding serious. “But Mr. Larson always smiles when he sees you. I used to think he probably had a twin brother. How is it that he seems to change into another person whenever he’s with you, Mrs. Larson? Others also thought so too. They had never seen Mr. Larson smile before. After you came, he became much happier. You are like an angel God arranged for Mr. Larson.”

“Wow! Natalie, do you want to write a book and tell us the secret to winning a cold man’s heart?” Estella stood beside Natalie, staring at her with admiration.

Natalie placed a hand on her forehead and tried to explain to the cleaning lady, “You’re wrong. Brandon just doesn’t like to smile. Few things can make him laugh, though. When I was in the Larson Group, I always embarrassed myself. He just thought I was funny.”

“Then why are you blushing?” Estella came close to Natalie, pinched her cheek and said, “Admit it. Brandon only cares about you. Everyone else is irrelevant to him. Deep down I know you’re happy about it.”

Natalie’s face became redder. She looked at Estella, grumbling shyly, “Stop saying that!”

Estella squinted her eyes and smiled. She picked up the small notebook and said, “I will write it down. You are the little angel of Brandon…”

Natalie hurriedly covered Estella’s notebook with her palm. “Estella, don’t write nonsense! All of this is baseless.” 2 But Estella just snorted and closed the notebook. “I’m not going to write nonsense. I promise you’ll be pleased.” Estella, seeing the disbelief on Natalie’s face, continued, “You’ll complain to Brandon if I wrote something ridiculous, right? I’m not that stupid. Please know that he can easily block me from the online novel industry.” “I won’t do such a thing.” Natalie had just caught a glimpse of some foolish words in Estella’s notebook. “Have you written anything else in your notebook?”

Estella immediately hid the notebook behind her, as if it held a secret. “Nothing, but this is my privacy.”

Natalie frowned. She was becoming more intrigued as time passed. She leaned over, bothered that Estella would write something baseless, and said, “I’m not going to tell anyone. Please show me.”

A noise came from outside the glass door as the two were fighting for the notebook.

The speaker most likely used a megaphone, attracting the attention of many passers-by.

Things seemed to be getting more serious.

“Is the Larson Group in debt to them?” Natalie asked the employees around her.

The employee sighed and explained, “The Larson Group is a decent enterprise. How can we fail to pay workers ‘ wages? The Larson Group and the Turner family became rivals as a result of Charis’ death. Mr. Larson cancelled some of the business engagements with the Turner Group, and a factory receiving orders was dissatisfied with the compensation provided by the Larson Group. The people from the factory have been coming to cause trouble recently, and they came twice last week.”

When the employee saw Natalie’s worried expression, he smiled and said, “Just ignore these people. Mr. Larson said that he would not allow them to come in and cause trouble. He has already called the police. Besides, they will leave when they get tired.”

Natalie nodded with a smile. She then noticed a pregnant woman standing in the crowd. The woman had a big belly, which she supported with one hand and her waist with the other. nobody brought her a chair to sit on. She seemed to have been standing for a long time, sweating profusely and looking very exhausted.

“Wait, who is the pregnant lady in front of them?” Natalie asked.

“Think this over carefully,” Estella immediately cautioned. “If anything happens to that woman while she is inside this building, the Larson Group will have to take responsibility. Even if we are not guilty of anything, I’m sure Jethro will kick up a fuss and pin the blame on the company.” ήόνέĻό Although she had never experienced something like this before, she was sharp enough to recognize the risks that the circumstances entailed.

“I will bear the consequences,” Natalie declared, her expression grim. She couldn’t just stand by and watch the pregnant woman suffer.

Dark clouds soon gathered above them. Lightning streaked through the sky just a few seconds before the heavens burst into a heavy downpour.

Without giving it a second thought, Natalie turned to the security guard at the door and said, “Tell the pregnant woman to come in and take shelter from the rain. We’ll send her out when the ambulance is here.”

“But Mr. Larson has ordered that none of Jethro’s people is allowed to step foot into the building.” To his credit, the guard kept to the command that he was given and did act rashly.

As the rain pelted the pavement, Natalie grew more agitated. “Look, I’ll take responsibility, okay? I’ll make sure you won’t get scolded for this. These people have been out there for a long time, and the pregnant woman has already fainted. If the media gets wind of this situation, it will only cause another tide of negative opinion from the public.”

In truth, the security guard was also feeling sorry for the pregnant woman. His wife had just given birth, too, so he was doubly sympathetic. After hearing Natalie’s reassurance, he cast his hesitations away.

He proceeded to gather some of his teammates from security and instructed them to carry the pregnant woman into the building. He was just about to close the door when Jethro suddenly rushed over, trying to squeeze through the gap.
