The Billionaire Husband’s Betrayal novel Chapter 37

Chapter 22: Charlotte’s POV

I let Leo assist me in the car and text my little henchman to make sure everything is in motion. I saw Leo had written her a note instructing her to use the town car for any and all her commutes today and decide it better to give his driver the day off. I then have my henchman pose as the driver and stay in the car. Leo was preoccupied with me and left without so much as checking in with his driver.

We begin our drive to the German doctor my father bribed to sell the promise of my recovery. It was about an hour drive so I waited patiently for us to arrive or for a text confirmation of my most- wanted deed being done.

After about forty–five minutes, I receive a text. Package received. No signature needed. This was too easy. Claire had already gotten into the car. Today would be a great day.

“Leo, I’m famished. Can we stop for something to eat?” I ask kindly.

“Of course. There’s an Italian deli nearby.” He says as he gets into the turning lane.

“That sounds fantastic. Thank you!”

“Are you excited to finally be able to walk again, Charlotte?” He asks as we turn into the parking lot.

“Yes, I won’t have to depend on everyone anymore.”

“You’ll have the freedom to come and go as you please. No need for Nannie’s or caregivers anymore.”

“You’ll still be there, won’t you?” Is he trying to get rid of me?

“Of course, but maybe once you recover, Claire’s end of the deal can be fulfilled.”
