The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

“Mr.Harding, we won’t do anything to hurt her.You can rest assured.”

The head of the Burke family laughed awkwardly.

After getting off the phone with the Burke family, Garrett received another call from his family “I heard that your girlfriend offended the Burke family? Moreover, I heard that this so called ‘girlfriend of yours is a hit woman? Is that true?”

Although they were posed as questions, the woman on the other end of the line sounded resigned.

“I’ll handle it.Don’t worry about me, Mom,” Garrett said lightheartedly.

“How can I not worry about you? You’re my son.” The woman sighed again.

“I promise I’ll handle it, Mom.I can take care of myself.Anyway, I have to get back to work now.”

Just then, the door to the study was pushed open and Laney strode in.

“Mr.Harding, have you heard anything from the Burkes yet?”

Laney poked her head in and asked through the crack of the door.

With a distressed look on his face, Garrett fumbled for an excuse, “We’re still, er, negotiating.The Burke family hasn’t responded yet.Just stay here for a few more days, okay?”

“Okay.Please inform me when you hear from them, Mr.Harding.”

Laney nodded, closed the door, and left.

Garrett had been having a good time with Laney these days and didn’t want her to leave yet, so he hid the truth from her in the meantime.
