The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 660 Such shrewish behavior appalled her.

It felt degrading to beat and scold another adult, but Vivian pushed her to her limit.

“Have you ever seenas your mother?” Catherine cried.

Vivian didn’t know how to answer.

She had planned to leave after exacting her revenge. She hadn't considered Catherine's feelings at all.

If Vivian really cared about Catherine and her feelings, she probably wouldn't have done any of that in the first place.

So the answer was probably no.

But faced with Catherine's distress right now, Vivian felt ashamed.

She used a grieving mother, and that was the fact she could never change.

Catherine pursed her lips and raised a hand to slap Vivian's face.

She broke down and asked bitterly, “Did we teach you to be such a heartless person?” Afraid that the situation would escalate, Natalie was about to step in when the door opened, and Sean entered the room.

“Mrs.Larson, Mrs.White, Mr.Larson askedto inform you that we can just deliver Vivian to the Turners.Vivian used and betrayed the Turner family.Luke Turner will punish her.You don’t have to dirty your hands.” Sean then stepped in front of Catherine and said, “Mrs.Turner, we will return Vivian to you later.You may do whatever you wish with her then.But you should not lose your temper in the Larson Group.” Catherine restrained herself.

She turned to Natalie and Johanna and said, “Thank you for coming all the way to tellabout this.We will deal with Vivian.She won't be able to hurt anyone again.” Johanna nodded.

Natalie seemed slightly dazed.She was certain that Vivian was still hiding something, and this made her uneasy.

But Sean had already asked his men to send Vivian and Catherine back to the Turner family.

“Are you thinking about Vivian? You seem absent-minded,” Johanna asked as she and Natalie left the interrogation room arm in arm.

She was certain something was wrong “It just happened so fast.Before | could react, Vivian was taken away.” As she finished speaking, Natalie spotted Brandon standing nearby.

“Mom, | need to check on Brandon.” Johanna didn’t stop her but looked unhappy.

After bowing his head respectfully to Johanna, Brandon hugged Natalie.

“I was worried about you,” he whispered.

His voice sounded hoarse.

Natalie raised her eyes and started telling him her thoughts.

“I think...” But she was interrupted by Johanna.

“Brandon.” Johanna looked serious.

Thinking that Johanna was worried about the Turner family, Brandon explained, “Luke called.They are sending Vivian to a sanatorium abroad.If necessary, she'll spend the rest of her life there.She won't be able to cause any more problems.There is no need to worry.Luke won't seek revenge on the White family or the Larson Group.” “You handled the matter well,” Johanna said slowly, “but even if Vivian is punished, it won't heal the harm she caused my daughter.” Natalie pursed her lips and stared at Johanna.

She was afraid Johanna might want to punish Brandon as well.

After minutes that felt like hours, Johanna sighed.

“I respect your choice, but Brandon, you must protect my daughter well.” Holding Johanna’s shoulder with gratitude, Natalie said, “You are the best.” Johanna touched the tip of Natalie's nose and shook her head helplessly.

“And you're the smartest.” When Brandon walked out of the Larson Group building with Natalie and Johanna, Beal was waiting outside.

“Why's Dad here?” Natalie sprinted toward the middle-aged man who bore the cold wind admirably.

“Your mother askedto wait here,” Beal smiled bitterly and then opened the car door.

“Get inside where it's warm, my preciouses.” Grinning, Natalie and Brandon got into the car.

“Sure enough, Mom is the head of the family,” Natalie teased.

Holding the steering wheel, Beal smiled.He wasn’t angry.

“Your mother is decisive.She is far better suited to be the head of the family than | am.Since we are all together, shall we have dinner together tonight?” With her eyes closed, Johanna seemed upset.She then opened them to study Brandon in the rear-view mirror.

Johanna remained silent throughout the journey, closely observing Brandon until they finally arrived at the White family estate.

“While your father and | were away, | had speople cin to refurbish the place.You will be staying here tonight.” Johanna said, arm in arm with Natalie as they entered the house.

The original house had a charm due to its antique features.

However, it was now fully equipped with the latest smart furniture and adorned in shades of grey, giving it a more modern and lavish feel.

Behind the ladies, as they led the way, Brandon and Beal conversed about their own company’s business prospects.

When the conversation ended, the topic turned to family matters.

Beal playfully reminded Brandon, “It's about tfor you and Natalie to consider having children, don’t you think?” Natalie's ears turned red upon hearing this conversation, and she looked back at her father before offering, “Dad, | learned snew recipes when Brandon was in the hospital.How about | cook them for you?” “Looks like today is my lucky day.” Beal looked at Johanna with pride as if to say, “See? My daughter is going to cook for me.” “I've already asked a chef to chere today, so you do not have to cook.” Johanna anxiously clung to Natalie's hand.

She wanted to spend more tto bond with Natalie more because her daughter was always too busy to visit.

“But | really want to make dinner for you and dad.” Natalie pleaded, holding Johanna’s arm and leaning against her shoulder like a child.

Johanna couldn't resist her daughter's plea and reluctantly agreed, “Okay, you can cook.” With that, Natalie rolled up her sleeves and headed into the kitchen, pushing Brandon out.

“Go and chat with them.They’re bored and are outside watching TV.” As Natalie disappeared into the kitchen, Brandon reclaimed his seat.

The atmosphere in the living room grew tense.

Johanna and Beal sat there and seemed extremely serious.

Beal sighed continuously.

Puzzled, Brandon asked, “What's going on? What do you wish to say?” Johanna didn’t mince words.

“We know about your condition, Brandon.Natalie caught Vivian and obtained sfiles from her flash drive.l was concerned that Vivian may have other tricks up her sleeve, so | looked through the contents of the files.To our surprise, we found your medical records.” “You need to explain this to us clearly.We were furious when we found out,” Beal added gravely.

Admitting to the authenticity of the reports, Brandon sighed, “It’s true.” “What do you mean by intentionally concealing your illness? Do you want my daughter to beca widow in the near future?” Johanna’s face turned cold.She was about to say more, but Beal held her hand, trying to calm her down.

“Let Brandon explain first.He’s always been considerate and truthful.I’'m sure he has a good reason.” Beal urged, “Brandon, say something.Explain it to us.” With her lips tightly pressed together, Johanna said in a frigid tone, “Had Natalie not been present, | would have confronted you when we left the interrogation room.It appears that Natalie is unaware of your condition.Wasn’t she given the files?” “After Natalie fell asleep, | deleted them.She remains oblivious to my condition.” With a solemn demeanor, Brandon lowered his gaze and rose to his feet, bowing to them respectfully.

“However, | do have a reason, and | would be grateful if you could hearout.”
