The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Before Natalie could react, Charis dragged her away. Although she didn’t want to go to Charis’s office, part of her wanted to find out about the woman's relationship with Sebastian.

Therefore, she followed her Seeing Natalie walking out in the new outfit, Charis looked her up and down, smiling.

“This color suits you very well. By the way, Sebastian also likes blue.” Natalie was buttoning up the shirt. Her hands stilled when she heard Charis’s comment.

“Are you two close?” Charis looked out of the window and smiled.

“We were classmates in high school and good friends.” After a moment's pause, she added, “I don't know if Sebastian has told you this, but | liked him. | even confessed my love for him a couple of years ago.” Natalie froze. She snapped up her head and looked at Chairs, the shock evident on her face.

Seeing the look on Natalie's face, Charis hurriedly held her hand.

“I'm sorry. | shouldn't have said that. It's all in the past. Oh, God.

Hasn't Sebastian told you?” Licking her pale lips, Natalie forced a smile.

“No. Were you two in a relationship?” Natalie felt the two must

have been together before. Why else would Sebastian hide the truth about Charis? Every time she tried asking about her, he would always try changing the topic or give a perfunctory answer.

Charis shook her head and let go of Natalie's hand.

“It's all in the past. Forget it. It will only ruin your current relationship with him. Besides, | think it would be better for you to hear it from Sebastian himself. Miss Quinn, please don’t take my words to heart.” She smiled wryly.

Charis’s words only piqued Natalie's curiosity.

The ambiguous answer made her wonder about the kind of relationship she shared with Sebastian. A thousand thoughts began to swarm in her mind.

“You said it was in the past, so why don’t you tell me?” Natalie asked, restraining her anger. She couldn't understand why she was angry.

“No. | don’t want to talk about it. | hope you don't mind. Forget about what | said. Let bygones be bygones. Sebastian is married now, and | only wish the best for you both.” Charis smiled.

Although she seemed calm, the sadness was evident in her eyes.

Natalie could tell that Charis still had feelings for Sebastian, and she wouldn't give up.

“No wonder Charis called Sebastian in the middle of the night.

She isn't stupid enough to forget the time difference. She must have done it on purpose” thought Natalie.

“Well, if you don’t want to talk about it, | won't force you.” With that, Natalie stormed out of the office. She always had an inkling that Sebastian was hiding something from her. He had only told her that Charis was just his classmate, but not once did he mention that Charis liked him.

Natalie's suspicion intensified; she strongly believed Sebastian was hiding something from her. A complacent smile emerged on Charis’s face as she watched Natalie walk away, she had told everything she wanted to say and sown the seeds of suspicion in Natalie’s mind. She had managed to stir her peace by giving ambiguous answers to her desperate questions.

Jealousy simmered in Natalie's heart. Her mind was a mess, and she couldn't concentrate on anything. When it was time to leave, Kent called her again.

“We have finalized the design today. | think it deserves a celebration. Would you like to join me for dinner?” Natalie's mind

flitted to the proud, complacent smile on Charis’s face earlier.

“Okay. I'll see you in a bit.” Kent had prepared himself to face another rejection. But excitement bubbled up in her heart when he heard her answer. It looked like all his efforts had finally paid off.

He quickly booked a table in an exquisite restaurant in a five- star hotel with floors of guest rooms just upstairs, so it would be convenient for him to take her up for some after-party after dinner.

Kent picked Natalie from the office and drove her to the hotel. The two got out of the car and walked inside. Meanwhile, Garrett brought his girlfriend to the same hotel. Just as he was about to take a bite of food, his gaze fell on Kent.He stopped and looked intently to see the man’s latest conquest. Garrett's eyes widened in horror when he saw Natalie walking beside him.

Garrett grew nervous. He called Sebastian right away. “Bro, come to the Sandy Hotel right now. You're about to lose your wife!” Sebastian was busy cooking at home. He had been trying his best to improve his relationship with Natalie.

Therefore, Sebastian returned home early every day and cooked a delicious meal for Natalie.

“Kent?” Sebastian took off his apron, picked up his jacket from the sofa, and darted out.

“Keep an eye on them. I'll be there soon.” “You know Kent very well. He has brought Natalie to a hotel. He's definitely up to no good. Something is about to happen tonight.” Garrett fell silent. He couldn't understand why Natalie had agreed to have dinner with Kent in the first place. He knew that Kent had wanted Natalie as the head designer for the project they were working on and also knew Natalie hated Kent.

Therefore, he was confident nothing would go wrong. Sebastian walked out of the apartment and hailed a taxi. “It's all my fault,” he grunted, running a hand through his hair.

“Knowing Natalie, | thought she wouldn't give Kent any chance.

Besides, Kent would never force a woman, so | thought everything would be fine.” Sebastian didn’t think it would be a problem, so he didn't feel the need to mess it up.

After all, he didn’t want to wreck Natalie's first project as the chief designer. It would be a good opportunity to grow and hone her skills.

“You should know that Kent has his way of getting into women’s

pants. Either that or something is wrong with Natalie. That's probably why she has agreed to have dinner with him.” Garrett's heart sank when he followed them into the restaurant.

Natalie and Kent were laughing and chatting happily. The anticipation made him sick.

“Well, I'm on my way.” Sebastian hung up the phone coldly and looked out the window, hoping to reach the hotel soon. The soft lights of the room made the place all the more romantic.

Kent was a little excited tonight. He had dressed into a gorgeous suit and brought his flirting game on, trying to impress her.

Nobody knew what she was thinking.

However, despite all his effort, Natalie seemed absentminded. She propped her chin on the palm of her hand and blankly stared outside. Kent waved his hand before Natalie's face to grab her attention.

“What would you like to eat? The steak here is out of the world.

Miss Quinn, this is the third time I'm asking you this question.” Natalie was lost in thought. She didn't bother paying attention to him.

“Order whatever you like. | don't have anything in mind.” “What are you thinking? Tell me. | can tell something is bothering you.

Maybe | can help you solve your problem.” Kent ordered the food and handed the menu to the waiter.

His heart sank with disappointment. He had thought Natalie's determination had finally wavered when she finally agreed to have dinner with him. However, she had been disinterested ever since she came to the hotel.

“Nothing.”
