The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Pretending as though she was surprised, Natalie covered her mouth and glanced at Emani. The latter stood rooted to her spot, dumbstruck.

“But Miss Gomez said that she’s a VIP customer here. She must've told you that she allowed me to take photos here in advance, tight? She’s a celebrity. Is she not allowed to do that?” The shop clerk glanced at Emani and said, “As | recall, Miss Gomez has never even shopped here. How could she be one of our VIP customers?” All of the shop clerks here were smart, and they remembered who their regulars were. Emani was so embarrassed that she just wanted to run away.

As a matter of fact, the shop assistant was telling the truth. She never shopped here even once, and was in fact, not a VIP.

Besides, this was an international luxury jewelry brand, and it had incredibly famous stars endorsing it. None of these people would take her seriously. Emani only said those words earlier to mock Natalie. She didn't expect that Natalie would actually

come in here and take photos Awkwardly, the shop clerk glanced at Emani once more.

‘That said, our store policy dictates that it is prohibited to take photos of our products. Miss Gomez, if you like any jewelry from our selection, you can make a purchase.” “No, it's okay. | have more than enough jewelry at home already,” Emani replied shaking her head. She tried to stay as calm as possible.

All she wanted to do now was to get away from here. She knew that she wouldn't be able to afford any of the jewelry here, considering how all of them were too expensive for her. Her salary was high, but she didn’t have that much savings because of her extravagant lifestyle. Buying even one piece in this store could bankrupt her. On occasion, she would come here just to window-shop, but that was all.

Seeing that Emani didn’t seem like she could afford any of the items here, Natalie put her phone away and nodded. She then looked at Emani while wearing a sardonic smile.

“Oh? In that case, why did you ask me to come in here and take photos? Why'd you have to embarrass yourself like that, Miss Gomez?"

By this point, Emani was too ashamed to speak. She just gritted her teeth, loathing Natalie to her core. This was an eye-opener for Emani. She couldn't tell from Natalie's looks that the latter actually had a sharp tongue. Now that things had come to this, Natalie no longer cared about the way Emani was looking at her.

Just as she was about to leave, she saw that Sebastian had walked into the store. He was standing in front of the showcase, staring at fine ruby necklace.

“Do you like it too? Why are you staring at it?” Natalie asked, holding his hand.

“I think it would look great on you,” Sebastian replied, staring at her affectionately.

‘I don't really want it. With that kind of money, we can buy several houses. Let's go home. I'm done here. Natalie smiled at him.

His words were a delight to hear.

Just before they could leave the store, one of the shop clerks suddenly stopped them.

“Ma'am, hold on.” In utter confusion, Natalie looked back at the shop attendant and asked calmly, “Is there anything else?” A polite smile was on the attendants face at this time.Her attitude towards Natalie had

changed drastically.

Bowing to the two, she replied respectfully, “Miss, you can take as many photos as you want.We also have lots of classics here.

If you want to have a look at them, we will gladly show them to you.” Natalie was taken aback by these words.

Emani, whose blood was boiling, became confused.

Natalie pursed her lips and took a look at Sebastian.

The shop attendant’s sudden change of attitude was not only surprising, but also confusing.She found it hard to believe.

With a frown, she asked, “I thought it wasn’t allowed.Why the sudden change of rules?” “Is this shop attendant trying to land me in trouble? Could it be a new way of hooking people to pay for the goods here?” she pondered.

The shop attendant’s smile widened.

She responded politely, “Exceptions are made for every rule.Since you are a distinguished guest, we can make an exception for you.” This explanation heightened Natalie's confusion.

She thought, “Me? A distinguished guest? When did | become one? Weren't they treating me like a pauper just now? Several doubtful thoughts also filled Emani’'s mind.She didn't believe the attendant’s words one bit.

In her mind, she concluded, “This is probably a joke or a misunderstanding. Natalie is just an ordinary employee of the Larson Group.She can't possibly be a distinguished guest!” “What do you mean by that? Has there been a misunderstanding or what? How did she become your distinguished guest? Are you sure of what you are saying?” Emani blurted out when she couldn't keep calm anymore.

Completely ignoring Emani, the shop attendant walked to Natalie and reverentially motioned for her to come along to the exclusive VIP reception area.

“Welcome to the VIP reception area, Miss Quinn.Please have a seat.After we sort out the best classics for you, you will be served some refreshments.” The other employees immediately went about their duties, paying no heed to Emani no matter what she said.

Some of them put on black gloves and began to take out the

jewelry classics that had been kept in the topmost sections of the glass display shelves.

They carefully displayed them in front of Natalie and Sebastian.

These pieces of jewelry were a sight to behold. They ranged from gold, silver, diamond, sapphires, and a host of others. They were so beautiful that Natalie was speechless.

When Sebastian glanced at Natalie, he saw that she stretched out her hand to touch them, but she drew it back the next second.

He could see that she was amazed by the jewelry but a bit scared to touch them.He found her behavior so lovely and funny.

“Are you sure you can see them clearly from a distance?” In a bid to put Natalie out of her misery, Sebastian picked up the box of jewelry she had been staring at and moved it closer to her.

Natalie leaned close to him and whispered in his ear, “I just secretly checked the prices of these pieces of jewelry. They are so expensive. It's not wise to touch them.What if | accidentally break them?” Alot of worries ran through Natalie's mind.She didn't trust the employees here.She smelled something fishy because of their strange behaviors.

As far as she was concerned, this might be a trap.She felt that they would force her to buy it if she broke anything.

Sebastian lowered his head and snickered.He then leaned against the sofa and threw his head back, laughing.

After having a good laugh, he looked at his wife with warmth in his eyes.

“Don’t worry. If you break anything, | will pay for it."Natalie felt butterflies in her stomach when she saw the warmth in Sebastian's eyes just now.

It made her feel relieved some type of way “Jeez! He's so handsome!”
