The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 712

Garrett gently escorted a woman into the room, his gaze upon her brimming with affection. “Apologies for our tardiness,” Garrett said. “My wife is expecting, and the bumpy ride was too much for her, so we took our time.”

“Is it wise for Mrs. Harding to be out and about so close to her due date?”

“The doctor recommended she stay active for the baby’s well-being.” Garrett then introduced Laney to the room. “This is my wife, Laney. She’s about to give birth. We’ll be sure to invite you all to our child’s baptism ceremony.” Laney blushed and shyly nodded.

“Nice to meet you all.”

Kailee seethed with rage, clenching her teeth, but she refused to admit defeat.

The banquet commenced, with mouthwatering dishes and fine wines served in abundance. Pretending all was well, Kailee sat beside Garrett, reminiscing about their school days, attempting to rekindle his memories.

To her dismay, Garrett s focus remained solely on Laney. He would occasionally interject before resuming his whispered conversation with his wife.

Kailee’s eyes smoldered with fury, but she managed to keep her composure.

Her meticulously planned reunion had been derailed by Laney’s presence, and she was determined to exact revenge.

As Kailee rose from her seat, she feigned clumsiness, knocking over a glass of wine that drenched Garrett.

“Oh, I’m so sorry’” she cried out, reaching for a napkin to help clean up the mess. But Garrett stopped her.
