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." Garrett's decision was final.
Once the villa was ready, he would move in with Laney immediately. He wouldn't ask for anyone's permission, let alone have them change his mind.
What he didn't know was that someone had overheard his plan. Kelly was about to drop by Garrett's office with some files, and she was shocked to hear his instruction to the assistant.
What villa?
Garrett and Laney were planning to move out?
She wouldn't allow it! If Garrett moved in with Laney, her last glimmer of hope would be shattered.
It must be Laney who convinced Garrett to do this. Otherwise, he wouldn't decide to move out with her so suddenly.
When the male assistant came out of the office, Kelly quickly turned around and hid behind the door.
She decided to follow him for the file in his hand.
It would serve as an evidence she could show to Vera in order to stop Garrett from moving out.
