Chapter 529
After Brandon carry Natalie out of the car, she still felt a bit weak in the knees. But as soon as they got
into their vi, they fell upon each other, hugging and kissing passionately again.
The heat enmed them again, and theynded in a tangle of body parts on the sofa. As Natalie
started to unb**ton Brandon’s belt, however, she suddenly noticed how bright the light was in the
house. That was odd. She’d clearly remembered that, when they’de in, they were busy kissing
each other and no one bothered to turn on the lights.
She looked over to the other side of the sofa only to find Beal and Johanna standing there.
The blood instantly rushed to her brain, and her mind nked. Natalie asked in a trembling voice,
“Dad, Mom, when did you get back?”
Also surprised by the interruption, Brandon jumped up quickly. The CEO of the Larson Group, usually
so dignified and distinguished, had lost all of his cool at that moment.
Natalie quickly fixed her clothes with a blush. She lowered her head as if she had been a child who had
just misbehaved.
Despite the fact that they were all adults, she couldn’t help but feel embarrassed by her parents
intruding on such an intimate moment with her husband.
Johanna coughed pointedly, and, after a few moments, exined, “Your father and I ended our trip to
Europe early.”
Beal stared at Brandon. During their trip, they had been paying close attention to what had been going
on at home. They had heard about the rumors surrounding Natalie and Draco.
Not that they med Natalie. She was still a perfect daughter to them. Even if she had cheated on
Brandon, to them, he was the one to me for what happened, not Natalie.
With a cold look in her eye, Johanna said, “Natalie, let’s have a talk in the other room.”
During the White couple’s trip abroad, Natalie had often called and told them that everything was fine,
but Johanna still wanted to ask her daughter face to face to see if Natalie was telling the truth and not
just trying to make her mother feel better.
After closing the door behind them, Johanna cut right to the chase. “What happened while your father
and I were away? Since Brandon got amnesia, he seems to have changed a great deal. Can your
marriage continue as it is?”

Natalie realized that her parents had been swayed by those rumors. The matter between her and
Draco had worried them.
She replied in as earnest a tone of voice as she could muster, “Mom, you saw us together just now.
Brandon and I are still very much in love. How can you believe those rumors after what you’ve just
seen?”
Johanna saw that the two had indeed been all over each other just now, but she was still confused. “So
you’re really not sleeping with Draco?”
“The fact of the matter is… This is honestly embarrassing. Someone took some photos of me and Mr.
Wesley and then made the whole thing up,” Natalie exined, her voice tinged with difort.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Johanna sighed. “Natalie, don’t lie to me. If you don’t love Brandon
anymore, you can just get a divorce. The White family will support you. You don’t need to carry on in
this marriage for your reputation. You don’t have to f0rce yourself, okay?”
Natalie hadn’t expected Johanna to have been so affected by these rumors. She denied it all
adamantly. “The idea of divorce has never even crossed my mind.”
That was when Brandon’s voice came in from the other side of the door.
“It’s all my fault. An enemy of the Larson group spread this rumor, in order to make people think our
marriage is falling apart.” Brandon entered the room and looked directly into Natalie’s eyes. They both
gazed at each other with the same look of intensity and love. “I believe Natalie with all of my heart, and
I also believe that Draco is a decent gentleman.”
Listening to Brandon’s words, Johanna said nothing more. She looked over at Beal, standing outside
the room, and nagged at him, “Why didn’t you stop him at the door? I wasn’t done speaking to Natalie!”
Beal kept his cool, though, and made his way over to guide Johanna out of the room. “Stop bothering
them. Weren’t you just telling me while we were on our trip that you wished you could have a
grandchild?”
Just now, he saw that Brandon was looking down with worry in his eyes. This moved Beal deeply.
Although Brandon had lost his memory, Beal only had to look at him to tell how much he still loved
Natalie.
Moreover, Beal could tell that Brandon and Natalie’s rtionship was stronger than it ever had been
before, so he decided to let Brandon go over to his wife.
Beal and Johanna smiled knowingly and went downstairs.
At dinner, Beal showed off his impressive skills in the kitchen. Natalie was beside herself with joy. Her
father hadn’t cooked one of his delicious meals for her in ages. As they were chatting, Brandon’s
amnesia came to Beal’s mind again. He asked his son-inw, “How is your condition? Have the doctors
said if they think it will get any worse? Your mother-inw and I met many good doctors in Europe. I
could give them a call to check up on you.”
Brandon turned somber at the change of subject, even as he bristled in his seat.
Frank had told him how the pharmacist had tampered with some patients’ medications and caused
them to suffer serious repercussions from their illnesses. He experienced no symptoms that might point
out to such a scenario, but it remained a possibility nheless.
Brandon looked at Natalie’s worried face and mustered a smile. “Don’t bother. Frank already had me
checked, and he told me that there are no serious side effects. Except for the memory loss, there
should be no problem.”
He spoke in a reassuring tone that brooked no question. Natalie smiled and nodded before turning to
Beal. “Don’t worry about us, Dad. I am well-aware of Brandon’s condition. Besides, we’ve already seen
a lot of doctors, and the results are all the same.”
Johanna nudged Beal and smiled helplessly. “Your father likes to worry about every little thing. Don’t
mind him. But since Brandon is doing better now, you should start trying for a child.”
Perhaps it was because they were getting on in years, but Johanna and Beal were really looking
forward to having grandchildren.
Natalie stole a nce at Brandon, her cheeks turning red.
Brandon took her hand with a grin. “You don’t have to worry about that, Mom. We’re certainly doing our
best.”
Johanna tittered excitedly, all smug as she told her husband, “See? The master was right. I am going to
have a grandchild soon!”
“What master? How would they know about these things?” Natalie asked lightly.
Beal paused his chewing to exin. “We met a fortune-teller when we were in Sri Lanka. He told your
mother that she would soon have grandchildren.”
Natalie couldn’t help but chuckle at that.
After dinner, the chauffeur drove Johanna and Beal back to the White family mansion.
