âJust tell me if theyâre bothering you too much.â A fond smile appeared on Hannahâs face.
âIâm fine. Donât worry about me. Iâm just a little worried. They can be pretty relentless, and if they keep digging around, they might harm you. Since youâve been taken back to the Whites and married Brandon, a big part of your life has also changed. There are bigger things at stake, so it would be better to leave the past behind.â
Natalie instinctively nodded, even though she knew Hannah couldnât see her.
âDonât Worry. Iâll be careful. You should also take care of yourself. Call me if anything happens. Iâm here, and Iâve grown up too, so donât shoulder everything on your own.â
At that moment, Brandon greeted Hannah as well, âGood evening, Hannah. Please donât worry about Natalie. I promise Iâll take good care of her. Iâll deal with the reporters bothering you too. Just leave everything to me.â
Brandonâs reassurance lifted some of Hannahâs worries.
With a laugh, she said, âThatâs great. You guys keep busy. I wonât disturb you two lovebirds any longer.â
The call had ended, but Natalieâs frown stayed.
âThis is my fault,â she said guiltily.
âI should have thought things through. Now even Hannahâs troubled because of my studio, and I hate it.â
She knew all too well how brazen and relentless those reporters could be.
They were worse than rats when it came to digging up stories.
Hannah didnât say much about it, but Natalie was certain they had been going after her nonstop.
Strong arms wrapped around her in a protective hold.
âDonât worry.â
Brandonâs voice came to her ears.
âIâll take care of this. But...â
There was a momentâs pause before he continued, a mischievous smile curving on his lips, âI think Hannahâs biggest wish would be to see us have a baby of our own.
What do you think? Should we try not to let her down?â
Natalieâs face flamed.
âI guess we should.â
Her cheeks were hot as she wrapped her arms around Brandonâs neck.
âBut I find something a bit strange,â she said.
The slow flames creeping across his body burned at her touch.
Brandon pressed himself more against Natalie, his hands starting to wander.
âWhatâs so strange about it?â As he spoke, one hand had reached between her legs.
A soft gasp escaped Natalie before she answered, âWeâve already tried many times, but there arenât any results yet.â
âThen we just need to work harder,â
Brandon said before swooping down to steal her lips.
He swallowed her moans, and she surrendered, letting him lead her to another realm of pure ecstasy.
Because of what Brandon did the previous night, Natalie was late to work the next morning.
Rubbing her sore waist, she walked into the studio tiredly.
On her way to the studio, she cursed Brandon many times in her heart. Just when she was about to curse him again, she saw Lexi running towards her excitedly.
âBoss! Good news! Good news!â
Natalie took a sip of water and asked slowly, âIs Carly here to see me?â
Lexi blinked in confusion and answered, âNo...â
âAhem.â
Embarrassed, Natalie cleared her throat and continued, âThen whatâs the good news?â
Lexi quickly took out the order details with a smile and said excitedly, âA security company wants us to design and make a new batch of work uniforms for them, and it is a huge order! You wonât have to worry about the studio rent, water, or electricity bills if we do this!â
Surprised, Natalie took the information document from her and saw that the client was a large security firm from another city with hundreds of female bodyguards.
They wanted a custom- made batch of new uniforms for their employees.
However, what surprised Natalie the most was that this company was located in the same city where Laney was now.
Could this order be recommended by Laney? At the thought of her best friend, Natalie reminisced about the days when Laney used to work as a bodyguard and accompany her.
They hadnât contacted each other in such a long time, and Natalie wondered how Laney and her child were doing.
She quickly made a video call to Laney.
Soon, the call was connected, and a chubby cute face appeared on the screen.
She looked just like Laney.
The babyâs face was rubbing against the screen and she was babbling.
Seeing that, Natalieâs heart softened.
All of a sudden, Laneyâs face appeared on the screen.
âNatalie, were you really free enough to call me today?â
Holding the baby in her arms, Laney continued, âI thought you were so busy that you forgot all about me.â
Natalie had indeed been very busy with the studioâs affairs and had no time to contact Laney.
Smiling with guilt, Natalie replied, âIâm sorry, Laney.
The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband ï¤Chapter 773 The studio was just set up, and I was too busy with work till now.
By the way, have you decided on a name for your little girl?â
Laney smiled and said, âI was just about to tell you. The babyâs name is Anya.â
She then turned to her daughter and said, âAnya, say hello to Natalie.â
Anya was still a baby, so she did not quite understand her motherâs words.
However, to their surprise, she opened her mouth and smiled so wide that she began to drool.
Natalie liked her so much and said with excitement, âAnya is so cute! Her name is beautiful! I wish I could fly over and kiss her right now!â
Laney laughed and said, âYou will also have a lovely baby in the future!â
At that moment, Ian also appeared on the screen and greeted Natalie with respect, âGood morning, Mrs. Larson!â
Natalie also greeted him with a smile, and after that, Ian left with Anya in his arms to feed her.
After he left, Natalie thought of the new order from the security company and asked Laney, âHey, I got an order from a security company thatâs located in the same city you live in. Did you recommend me to them?â
Laney nodded with a smile and said, âI didnât expect you to find out about it so soon.
In fact, I didnât recommend you, I just showed your past works to my friend, Teresa, and she immediately made the decision to hire you.â
Natalie was moved by her friendâs support and said, âThank you, Laney.â
Laney shook her head.
âYouâve done a lot for me. Compared to that, this is nothing.â
She was just repaying Natalie for all the kindness she had shown her and for all the help she had offered.
