Chapter 473

“Give me some more time,” he whispered as he hugged her tightly.

For a while, Laney was dumbfounded and unsure of what he meant.

“This is not a big deal,” she reassured him, “so don’t fight your family, or do anything stupid.”

It was true that it had been difficult for her to live in the Harding home with her in-laws, but Garrett had also been under a lot of pressure.

Laney believed it was just fair for her to give up some freedom for them to be together. She felt a lump in her throat, but she held back her tears.

Laney knew that if she broke down in tears in front of him, Garrett’s conflict with his mother would only get worse.

Garrett said, “Don’t worry. I can handle it well. Just act as if you don’t know anything in front of my mother.”

Laney felt better with Garrett’s reassurance. She buried her face in his arms.

Then Garrett got up. He placed an arm on Laney”s shoulders as they headed upstairs. He had made up his mind.

They would move out to their own place once everything was settled.

On the following day, Garrett called his assistant as soon as he arrived at the office.

“Hire some people to clean my villa near the company. My wife will be moving into that house. The Harding family didn’t know that Garrett owned a villa near his company. He used to live in that villa by himself and he would just make do with things. If Laney was to move in with him, he would have to ensure that the place was cozy enough for his pregnant wife.

Garrett handed a file containing information about the villa to his male assistant.

“Got it, Mr. Harding,” the assistant checked the file with an uneasy look.

“But if your mother finds out about this, she will be furious.”

“That’s why you have to do it discreetly without letting my family know.”
