The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 731

After exchanging sweet nothings, the two found solace in each other’s embrace. Weakened, Laney Garrett gently tucked Laney in, ensuring she was comfortable, and then placed their baby in the crib before silently slipping out of the ward.

The second he stepped out of the room, he found Vera and Leo outside, waiting for him impatiently. Seeing Garrett out of the ward, they immediately approached him.

“Let us come in and see the baby,” Leo demanded, his voice dripping with authority.

Garrett’s eyebrows were knit together, his patience for his overbearing parents running thin. He knew that they didn’t care for Laney, but she was their daughter-in-law and had just given birth to the newest member of the Harding family. Still, they focused solely on the baby. Their cold indifference toward Laney’s fragile state was glaringly obvious.

“Laney and the baby are both asleep right now. If you want to see the baby, you’ll have to come back another time,” Garrett replied, his voice tight with restraint.

As for when that next visit might be, he deliberately left it unsaid.

His perfunctory response lit the fuse on Leo’s temper. “We’re the baby’s grandparents! Why is it so hard for us to see our own granddaughter?” he bellowed, his voice echoing through the hallway. Vera joined the fray, her voice equally indignant. “You drove Lola away without just cause, leaving us in the dark about the baby. Now you’re denying us a simple glimpse of our grandchild? Your insolence grows by the day.”

“Lola conspired to bring about Laney’s premature delivery. She got exactly what she deserved,” Garrett retorted, refusing to back down. “And as for seeing the baby…” The look on his face grew even colder. “Laney brought her into this world through immense pain and sacrifice. You never once showed concern for her well-being. What gives you the right to see her baby?”

Leo’s fury erupted like a volcano. “Garrett Harding!Mind your tongue! How dare you speak to your parents like this?” he roared, face red with anger.Garrett’s lips curled into a cold, defiant smile. “This is where I stand. If you continue to harass us, l won’t think twice about severing our relationship. I’ll wash my hands of the Harding Group and go back to working with Brandon’ he declared,standing his ground, immovable as a mountain.

“Garrett Harding! How dare you talk to me like that?”
