The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 515

He stood in the aisle between Natalie and Derek’s seats, carefully scrutinizing Derek’s

business card. At last, he threw it back onto Derek’s pizza box.

“If you want to cooperate with Draco Wesley,” he said to Derek coldly, “you should pay a

visit to W Marks in person. It’s insincere if you ask someone else to pass your card along.

Plus, don’t bother my wife.”

Derek pursed his lips and stood up straight. He looked at Brandon with an unfriendly

expression. Brandon, who was half a head taller than Derek, put his hands in his pockets

and looked down at Derek churlishly.

The two men eyeballed one another, and the atmosphere grew tense.

Afraid they might fight, Natalie reached out her hand and pulled Brandon back into his

seat. “The plane is about to land,” she urged. “Don’t just stand there.”

Derek returned to his seat and, for the moment, their battle was adjourned.

The stewardess’ voice soon came over the loudspeaker; the plane had arrived at Barnes’

airspace.

Watching the clouds billowing past the window, Natalie suddenly heard the man

complaining. “You went to a show and brought back an admirer.”

She turned to look in the direction of the complaint. Brandon was casually reading a

magazine, as though nothing had happened. He didn’t even look like he’d just been

speaking.

Natalie was amused. In the past, when Charis had pestered Brandon, Natalie had been

jealous, too. Brandon hadn’t known about that, though.

“I didn’t expect you to be like this,” Natalie said playfully. She turned her head to look at

Brandon, her eyes smiling. Brandon frowned. He didn’t say anything more, but began

flipping the pages of the magazine more aggressively.

Just as the plane was about to land, it jolted suddenly, several times.

The smile on Natalie’s face disappeared, and her chest tightened. She instinctively held

Brandon’s hand.

At first, Brandon didn’t respond. Then, when he saw that Natalie was scared, he

immediately held her hand and said, “Don’t worry. It’s normal for the plane to toss up and

down a bit when it lands.”

Natalie nodded silently, still covering her chest. Gradually, she managed to calm down.

Brandon and Natalie held each other’s hand tightly until the plane came to a stop.

“Let go of me already,” said Natalie, flustered. “I’m going to take my backpack.” Blushing,

she tried to get rid of him. Brandon still held her hand. Graciously, he took the backpack

from Natalie, and they exited the plane together affectionately.

Derek walked behind them, his eyes hidden behind sunglasses, watching their intertwined

hands.

“Stop watching. Let’s go. We have something important to do.” Seeing Derek absent-

minded, Wilder elbowed him to get his attention.

“Wilder, do you think married couples still feel passionate about each other after many

years?” The sudden question startled Wilder, who was still single.

“How should I know? Only married couples know how marriage works.” Afraid that Derek

might really fall in love with Natalie and get himself into trouble, Wilder warned him,

“Whatever it is that you’re thinking, stop it. I’ve heard that Brandon and his wife have a

really strong relationship that no one can destroy. Besides, the Larson Group is not easy to

deal with. Your career is on the rise. Don’t misstep at this moment.”

But Derek didn’t take Wilder’s words seriously.

Love and women were just games for him. He was once involved with a married woman,

and she left her husband for him; but in the end, Derek didn’t choose to be that stupid

woman.

On the other hand, Natalie wasn’t interested in him at all, which caught his attention. He

hadn’t been so excited for a long time.

“Wilder, I know what I’m doing.” Derek put on a mask and took his backpack, walking

forward in a relaxed posture.

Feeling helpless, Wilder patted his forehead and sighed. Even if Derek told him there was

nothing to worry about,

Wilder knew that he was definitely planning something. “Don’t go through the common

exit. I was informed by the company that many fans are waiting for you outside there.” As

he spoke, Wilder pulled Derek towards the VIP exit. “Let’s leave quietly through the VIP

exit. We still have work to do in the afternoon.”

However, the stubborn Derek jerked his hand away. “My fans have been waiting for me for

a long time. How can I let them down? Besides, if I have plans to build my career here, I’ll

need to get along well with them.”

Thanks to his fans, Derek became successful. He knew that, so he didn’t want to

disappoint them.

Unable to change Derek’s mind, Wilder had no choice but to sashay his way through the

common exit behind Derek. Walking out of the airport, Derek immediately caused a

commotion among the people outside. He took off his sunglasses and waved at his fans

who were screaming and raising banners with his name on them. Fans who came to see

him blocked the exit. It was hard for Natalie not to notice Derek as she and Brandon

walked past the exit because his looks really stood out, and many people surrounded him.

In her mind, Natalie said to herself, “Derek is really popular locally and internationally.”

She tore her gaze off him and looked ahead.

It was Sean who came to pick them up. He reached out to take the bags and suitcases

from Brandon.

The first thing that Sean noticed was that the two had been holding hands since they

came out. It was a bit surprising because they rarely showed affection while in public.

It was not until they got into the car that Sean expressed his amusement. “It seems that

your relationship has improved greatly after your trip to Northcliffe.”

Noticing that Sean was looking at her and Brandon’s hands, Natalie tried to unclasp their

hands. The latter knew she was embarrassed, so he let go.

Flustered, Natalie immediately changed the topic. “I’ve brought you a gift, Sean. I hope

you like it.”

Then she handed a small box to him, which had a bottle of perfume inside. The moment

Natalie smelled the scent of this perfume, she thought it would be perfect for Sean. “It’s

the first time I’ve received a gift from a girl in my life. Thank you, Mrs. Larson.” Touched by

her generosity, tears welled up in Sean’s eyes.

However, Brandon frowned, ruining the moment. “Stop pretending, Sean. On your

birthday party last year, you complained that the red underpants your mother gave you

were too small.”

Pursing his lips, Sean put away the gift.

Suddenly, Natalie snickered and said, “Since you have accepted my gift, Sean, I expect

you to help me keep an eye on Brandon from now on. I know Brandon has a lot of secrets

that I don’t know.”

It was actually just a joke. Natalie didn’t feel like Brandon was hiding something.

But when Sean heard her words, his smile froze.

Upon remembering that Brandon asked him to investigate the mysterious pharmacist, he

became hesitant.

Natalie didn’t expect Sean would suddenly turn serious at her joke. She had the vague

sense that something was wrong.
