Sebastian had rescued Hannah from the car.
She was fine, but since the driver had kicked her just now, her arm showed a little bruising “Oh, my God! Are you okay? I'm glad you're safe.| was so worried about you.” Hannah stroked Natalie's hair.
‘When she saw the red marks on Natalie's face, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
“How on earth did this happen?” Natalie averted her gaze.
Biting her lower lip, she couldn't answer.
Then, her eyes wandered over to Sebastian.
She quietly glanced at the dozen men in black suits that surrounded them.
Confused, she tugged Sebastian's sleeve questioningly.
“Why are you dressed like that? And where did all these people come from? They look so scary.” Sebastian was dressed in a formal, elegant suit.His black hair was combed to perfection, revealing his flawless face and accentuating his deep-set eyes that exuded a majestic aura every time he looked at others.
Unlike his usual slovenly self, Sebastian looked mature and noble,
as if he were a whole new person today.
Sebastian stopped for a second, took off his double-buttoned vest, and draped it on his arm.He ruffled his black hair, letting a few strands fall between his thick eyebrows.
“I have to accompany my boss to receive an important client today,” he said nonchalantly.
“So | wore formal clothes. These are my friends. asked them to help me when | received your call.” Sebastian had a meeting with his foreign partners today, so he had dressed extra formally.But since he had come in a hurry to Natalie's rescue, he didn’t have the time to change.
Sebastian's so-called ‘friends’ were all trembling with fear. They nodded and bowed respectfully before Natalie.
“Hello! Nice to meet you!” “Our buddy here always praises you.He thinks the world of you.” Everyone tried to play along.
After all, it was a good opportunity to get a hike.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Hello, everyone. Thank you for helping us.How about | treat you to dinner?” Natalie's face turned red.She felt awkward to meet Sebastian's friends like this.
After all, the slap mark was still visible on her face.She stole a glance at Sebastian, her eyes gleaming with admiration.She didn't expect him to have so many friends and connections.
Sebastian draped his arm around Natalie's shoulder and smiled.
“Well, that's enough.She is shy. You guys better drop Hannah back to her home first and then hire someone to take care of her.” “I don't think it’s a good idea. It will cost a lot of money.” Natalie frowned, tugging at the corner of Sebastian's shirt.
“Well, would you rest assured if Hannah stays in the countryside all by herself?” he asked, cocking his head to the side.
“Besides, it won't cost much to hire a help to do household chores.Let's discuss this further after Hannah recovers.” Natalie had no choice but to agree.
By the time they got home, it was getting dark.
Natalie sat on the sofa, hugging her knees, as she watched the sun sink into the horizon.Her face was coated with ointment, and the swelling had alleviated a bit.
The sound of running water reverberated from the bathroom.
“I have run a bath for you.Go and take a bath first. It will make you feel better.”
Sebastian walked out of the bathroom. His sleeves were rolled up, revealing his strong forearms.
Natalie nodded and got up from the sofa.Her face bore no expression.
“What's wrong?” Sebastian checked her pulse and pressed the back of his hand on her forehead.
“Do you sense any discomfort? You don’t look good.” He sensed something was wrong.
Natalie shook her head.
“Sebastian...” She took a deep breath and cleared her throat, finally summoning the courage to speak.
“Can you accompany me to the bathroom?” she asked in a feeble voice.
The traumatic incident had shaken her up.
Natalie was still frightened.
Sebastian was the only person she trusted; his presence made her feel safe and secure.She wanted him by her side at all times.
Sebastian nodded.
“Sure.”
The bathroom was covered with steam, and a thin layer of mist sat on the glass.
As Natalie removed her dress, the sound of the zipper sliding sounded louder than usual.She cast a sidelong glance at the man beside her.
Sebastian's gaze fell on the closed door.
His towering frame made the bathroom seem small and cramped.
Hearing the spluttering of water as Natalie stepped into the bathtub, Sebastian turned his head and sighed.
Natalie was submerged in the foamy water.
Athick layer of bubbles floated on the surface, revealing nothing but her flawless face.Her rosy cheeks and pitiful eyes somehow made her look more innocent than ever.She managed to effortlessly arouse his desire.
Sebastian's mouth became dry as passion coursed through his veins.He tock deep breaths to control himself.
Natalie had seen him like this before.
Sebastian had the same look on his face every time he kissed her.
“I'll be at the door.Call me if you need anything.” Sebastian smiled and gently patted her cheek before turning around to leave.
Natalie looked sad and miserable, so Sebastian decided to let her go today.
Just as Sebastian tumed out to leave, he felt a feeble grip on his hand.
He turned around and saw Natalie looking at him with expectant eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Don'tgo...” A hint of panic flashed in her eyes.She didn’t want to stay alone in the bathroom.
Natalie was almost in tears, looking aggrieved and helpless.
Sebastian couldn't leave her alone after looking at the pitiful sight of her.
“Are you sure you want me to stay? Well, you know I'm not a gentleman.” Sebastian's Adam's apple bobbed, and his jaw tightened.He lifted her in his arms and pressed her against the cold wall.
Caught off guard, Natalie yelped in shock.She didn’t stand a chance to react.
Although he seemed gentle, the ferocity of his kiss reflected his desire.
He thrust his tongue into her mouth, prying it open.
Then, he massaged his tongue against hers, making Natalie moan with pleasure.
“Hmm... Sebastian, I... | can’t breathe...” Natalie moved her head back, trying to wriggle out of his grip.Her breathing faltered as a subtle blush painted her cheeks.
“Don’t you want it?” Sebastian asked, rubbing his nose against hers.
His dark eyes dazzled with desire.He gulped and gently bit her chin.
“If you are afraid, stop seducing me and behave yourself.” Natalie's face turned a shade pinker.
However, she refused to let go of him.
“My... My period is over...” Sebastian's eyes widened with astonishment.He picked up the towel beside him and wrapped it around Natalie's delicate body.
His breathing came out in short pants.
“No, this isn’t right. You better have your bath.I'll wait outside.” He felt that Natalie's fear had driven her to say something like that.
Sebastian didn’t want to take advantage of her vulnerability.
Just as Sebastian was about to leave, Natalie leaned forward and hugged him from behind.
The bath towel slipped to the floor.
“Please don't go..." She whimpered as tears filled her eyes.
