The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 732

“Brilliant idea! I never considered that before!” Vera cried out, her hands clapping together in elation at Kailee’s inspired plan.

Vera’s spirits soared, and her admiration for Kailee swelled.

Vera couldn’t resist praising Kailee, saying, “You’re so clever and kind-hearted. Whichever fortunate young man marries you will be truly blessed.”

Kailee smiled demurely but remained silent. During their conversation, the car had reached the entrance of the Harding family’s opulent abode.

Vera enticed Kailee inside to peruse the photographs of Garrett’s youth, and Kailee graciously acquiesced.

Together they sat in the lavishly appointed living room, poring over images of Garrett’s innocent days, their laughter and chatter filling the air with a warm, convivial atmosphere. “Behold, here’s Garrett slumbering. He was so adorable back then.”

“And here he is, accepting his first accolade. He was far more disciplined in his younger days than he is now.”

Vera gestured to the photos, a wistful sigh escaping her lips as her eyes brimmed with nostalgia.

Garrett was such an exemplary child/ Kailee agreed with a smile, feigning interest in the images.

Vera failed to notice Kailee’s polite disinterest, and seeing Kailee’s radiant smile, she lamented, “If only I had fostered a stronger bond between you and Garrett, we might have avoided this dreadful situation.” Following the distressing events at the hospital, Vera’s discontent with Laney intensified. She frequently rued consenting to Garrett’s marriage to Laney.

It was all due to Laney that their family faced such upheaval and a tarnished reputation. Now, with the virtuous Kailee as a shining example, Vera’s resentment toward Laney reached a boiling point.

Seizing an unguarded moment, she surreptitiously slipped a “gift” she had prepared for Laney into the parcel. The servant, unsuspecting, refrained from inspecting the package again and promptly dispatched it to the hospital. Vera’s letter, placed atop the photo album, imbued the delivery with an air of
