The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Charis had already prepared what to tell Sebastian when he questioned her.She wanted to make it seem like she didn't do anything wrong, and Natalie's shallowness was the reason for their problems.She wanted to shift all the blame on Natalie However, the phone call displeased her.

It seemed that Sebastian truly cared about Natalie.He had called her late at night just to talk about this.

Sebastian didn't think Charis was lying.

After all, she would easily be busted if she really lied about this and he asked Natalie to confront her.He knew Charis well.

She was bold, straightforward, and wouldn't waste her time creating problems in their lives.

But Sebastian couldn't entirely be sure of it.His intuition told him that things weren't as simple as they seemed.

Natalie would never make trouble out of nothing.

If Charis had merely talked about the past and their friendship, Natalie wouldn't be jealous.

“Why don’t you say anything?” Charis knew Sebastian well and understood what he must be thinking.She sighed and said, “Do you want me to talk to Natalie

tomorrow and explain everything clearly to her? I'm really sorry.

didn’t” “No, thanks,” Sebastian said unhappily.

Charis’s heart sank.It looked like Sebastian was suspicious of her.

The cold wind gave him a headache.

Reading women’s minds was an impossible task.

Sebastian felt the only solution to the problem was to keep Natalie away from Charis.It would be better if the two never saw each other again.

However, unlike Christopher, Charis was important to the Larson Group.She was the daughter of the Turner family.

Sebastian, despite being the CEO of the Larson Group, couldn't just kick her out.

“Charis, you better mind your own business,” he said, massaging his throbbing temples.

“Stay out of our personal problems.” At that moment, he heard rustling noises behind him.Sebastian turned around and saw Natalie standing behind him. Her dress.

billowed with the cold wind as she stared at him with tears in her eyes.

An hour ago Natalie had deliberately made noises while moving her things back to her room.Her anger flared up when Sebastian didn’t respond.She slammed the door, making it rattle against the hinges.She had thought Sebastian would stop her and explain everything to her.

Part of her hoped all this was just a misunderstanding, and Charis was nothing more than Sebastian's classmate.

Natalie waited for a long time but didn't hear any sound outside.

Natalie walked to the bed and slumped down.She was mad at herself for not being decisive enough.She had stormed off like she didn’t give a damn.However, she couldn't stop thinking about what was going on in Sebastian’s mind.She fell on the bed and buried her face in the pillow.

It was a quiet night.

As Natalie stirred in her sleep, she felt like someone was standing by her bed.She quickly opened her eyes and turned the light on.

However, there was no one else in her room.

The white blanket was still smooth and fluffy.

Natalie realized no one had been watching her sleep.

Sebastian hadn't whispered sweet things into her ear during her sleep.

Natalie sat up and massaged her temples.

“Why hasn't Sebastian bothered to explain himself? Was my guess right then?” Natalie couldn't stop thinking about the smug look on Charis’s face.

They definitely had a history.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

Finally, unable to take it anymore, she got up from the bed.She knew sitting in the room and wracking her brains was pointless.

The only solution to the problem was to talk to Sebastian about it.

But Natalie was a coward.Her momentum disappeared as soon as she walked out of the bedroom.She trudged across the living room as if nothing had happened, pretending that she only got up to get some water.

However, to her surprise, the living room was empty.

“Where is Sebastian?” She frowned and tiptoed to his room.

However, Sebastian wasn't in his room either.

Natalie was enraged.She couldn't believe Sebastian had left the house without even telling her.

Natalie took a bottle of beer from the fridge and walked to the balcony.

A gust of cold breeze brushed against her as she looked down.Her gaze fell on the man standing in the garden downstairs.

It was Sebastian.He was leaning against the tree, talking over the phone.

Natalie grew suspicious.

“Why does he have to go downstairs to answer the phone? Does he not want me to know who he is talking with?” Natalie quickly ran downstairs and walked toward Sebastian from behind.

The cool night breeze caused the shadows of the trees to dance under the street lamps.

Natalie could clearly hear his voice.He uttered Charis’s name and was asking her not to get involved in their business.

“What does he mean? It looks like the two indeed have a history — an unforgettable past.” Natalie's heart sank.

Countless thoughts and possibilities buzzed in her mind.Her vision grew blurry.She froze and didn’t dare to walk any further It looked like Charis was telling the truth.

And Sebastian didn't care to explain himself probably because he never cared about Natalie.A wave of shame consumed her.She felt stupid for trying to defend Sebastian for a moment.

Natalie wiped her tears, tumed around, and ran back. A pang of jealousy settled in her heart.

All of a sudden, she broke into a cold sweat, and her body began to tremble.

“Natalie!” Sebastian was stunned to see her there. He immediately hung up the phone and ran after her.In that split second he had seen the sad expression on her face.She looked as if she had just suffered a terrible blow out of the blue.

Natalie turned a deaf ear to him.She quickly made her way to the elevator while keeping her head down, so no one would see the tears that were already streaming down her cheeks.

Although Sebastian walked as quickly as he could, he couldn't catch up with the elevator before the doors shut.He pressed the button several times, but the doors didn’t open.

The elevator had already gone up.It was obvious to Sebastian that his wife had misunderstood the whole situation this time.He wanted to speak to her before things got out of hand.

In a haste, he took another elevator and went home.

But when he got in, he saw that Natalie had already locked herself up in her room again.

The entire house was as quiet as a grave.

The dim moonlight fell on the windowsill.It seemed as if nothing had happened.

“Natalie, please open the door. need to talk to you.” Sebastian knocked on the wooden door heavily with his clenched fist.He pressed his ear against the door.

But he didn't hear anything from the other side.

Afterward, he turned the doorknob again, but the door was still locked from the inside.

“Natalie, please believe me.I'm not unfaithful. don't have any relationship with Charis. We only talked about her work on the phone earlier.Open the door so we can talk this through.” The occurrences of the past few days hinted Sebastian that Natalie hated lies.

However, it seemed like a well-intentioned lie was better now than telling the truth.He didn't like to lie to her, but he had no other choice at this moment.
