The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

When Sebastian realized that Natalie wasn't going to break the silence, he sighed and uttered, “You have to believe me, Natalie.My call with Charis didn’t mean anything else. just wanted to warn her against sowing a seed of discord between us.

That's all.” Hearing these words, Natalie snorted and looked out of the window.

“I don’t and looked out of the window.” “I don't want to hear it, Sebastian. It's your fault that she can't get over you." “I've made it clear to Charis that | can't be with her, but she’s still stubborn.| really wish | can take drastic measures to cut her off.

However, | can’t do anything to her because she’s the daughter of the Turner family and has such a high position in the Larson Group. The only thing | can do is to continue warning her.” Sebastian was telling the truth.His hands were practically tied concerning this matter.

Even with the identity of Brandon, he couldn't do anything to Charis. They had known each other for a long time and even started their own business together.

Thus, he couldn't sever ties with her just like that.

Although Sebastian didn't dare to tell Natalie this, he felt that Charis was a capable and mature woman.He tried to look past the fact that she was into him.

As a businesswoman, she was decisive in dealing with things and always made decisions for the benefit of everyone.She didn’t ‘seem to be a bad person to him.

It wasn't until this moment that Natalie looked back at him.

“Sebastian has a point there. He's only the illegitimate child of his father and has no social status.He doesn't have the power to go against someone that important.Even if he tried, it would cause a great rift between him and his family, she pondered reasonably.

“I understand where you are coming from, but it's just that | feel you aren't honest with me at all.” Natalie looked dispirited.

The feelings she had for Sebastian was getting stronger and stronger by the day.She wanted to get close to him.

But it seemed like every time she tried, he would try his best to drift away from her.

And she didn't like that.

“Natalie, the time is not right. Please wait a little longer. When

everything is settled, I'll gladly tell you whatever you want to know.” Sebastian's face was gloomy, and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed.He seemed to be extremely hesitant, but his tone was also very serious.

Natalie saw that a thousand unsaid things swirled in his eyes.She also knew that he was serious about this promise.She nodded her head and finally looked at him.

With tears welling up in her eyes, she said, “Sebastian, I'll wait.” Now that she was calm, she began to think of the recent happenings.She knew that Charis had deliberately talked about Sebastian to make her jealous.It occurred to her that she would only be fulfilling Charis’ greatest desire if she fell out with Sebastian.

Sebastian leaned over and whispered in her ear, “We're good then, right?” His deep voice made Natalie shiver, and goose bumps rose on her skin.She narrowed her eyes at him.

“Don’t push your luck.” “Well, what more would it take? I've been out in the cold for days, and it's been so long since | last kissed you.”

Sebastian's gaze fixed on her lips as he said this.He braced his arms on either side of her waist, careful not to touch the infusion tube attached to her hand.

Natalie stiffened as he tried to draw closer.If she just let him off after a bout of flirting, he might think she was an easy woman.

“There's something | want to ask you,” she said, her tone chilly.

“Did Charis ever have a boyfriend while she was abroad?” Considering her background, Charis was more than worthy of a match with the most outstanding man any city had to offer.

There was a distinctly huge gap between her social status and Sebastian's, so why was she so devoted to him? This question was burning a hole in the back of Natalie's mind, but she didn’t want to ask Sebastian directly for fear of hurting his self-esteem.

Sebastian blew out a small sigh and pulled back.

It appeared that he wouldn't be able to kiss his wife this time, either.

“We didn't stay in contact after she left, so | never really had a way of knowing.” Natalie seemed to relax at that, but she didn’t seem particularly pleased at all.She glanced at the fruits sitting on the side table

and pouted.

“I'd like to eat some fruit.” Sebastian followed the direction of her gaze and smiled.

“Anything for you, honey.” As he said so, he was already walking towards the table.He picked up an apple and the paring knife that came with the fruits.

Natalie wasn't entirely mollify just yet, and he was more than happy to attend to her needs, no matter how trifling they were.

His deft fingers went to work on the apple.

Soon enough, a long, winding strip of apple peel was dangling from his hands.

Natalie watched him in silence.

This charming man was just so damn good at everything he did.

Sebastian sliced the peeled apples and put them in a plate, carrying it back to the hospital bed.

“You should eat some porridge, too.It should have cooled down to the perfect temperature by now.” A blush crept into Natalie's cheeks.

In a bid to hide it, she huffed and reached for the plate of apple slices, only for Sebastian to pull back and hold it high above her head.

“Won't you call me honey first?” “Forget it, then! You can eat those yourself!” Natalie shot him a glare before scoffing and turning away.

Sebastian's lips stretched into a knowing smile.He placed the plate on her lap, then reached out and squeezed her burning ear lobe.

Before she could tell him off for it, he had already stolen a peck on one of her rosy cheeks.

“I was just teasing. You can't even take a joke, my grumpy little wife. Take your time.I'll be outside, so just holler if you need anything.” And then he was striding across the room and out into the corridor outside, closing the door behind him.

Sebastian was so infuriatingly smooth, and he could always drive her to a loss without much effort, Natalie looked down at the plate on her lap and began to eat.He was treating her so well.

If she had to be honest, she didn’t have the heart to make things more difficult for him.

Luckily, Natalie wasn't seriously ill. Her fever broke on the same day, and she was discharged the next morning, all cleared to return to work.

The moment she was back in the office, she tried to come up with the most ideal way to deal with Kent.

Natalie didn't have to ponder too long, however, because Tiffany soon sent her a notice saying that Perkins Bank had changed their representative.
