After taking a spoonful of soup, Natalie shook her head. After a moment's hesitation, she said, “The issue with the fraudsters is solved now. Well, Bandon solved it.” “That's why you look bothered?” Sebastian asked, examining her face.
“I just don’t understand this. Why would a stranger offer help for no reason? | can’t stop thinking about it.” Natalie had made up her mind to ask Brandon why he was helping her.
An unease had settled in her heart.
“It might be a big deal for you. But Brandon is a powerful man. He deals with problems like this every day. It's a piece of cake for him. Stop overanalyzing this.” Seeing that Natalie had finished eating, he stood up and began cleaning up the table.
“No, | don’t think so. Maybe it’s just a casual order to Brandon. But he still had to ask his subordinates to deal with them. I'm just a common designer. Why would he go out of his way to help me? Brandon is a businessman. If he doesn’t have any other motive and is helping me only out of kindness, why would he make a decision that would probably cause him huge losses?” All of a sudden, Natalie stood up and stared at the man who was
cleaning up the table. “Sebastian, are you hiding something from me?” “What could | possibly hide from you?” Sebastian shrugged and continued to put the dishes into the sink.
Although he seemed calm, his heart was racing in his chest.
Natalie was a smart woman, and hiding the truth from her wasn't easy.
Sebastian hoped for her to stop overanalyzing everything and just let him help her.
“I mean, did you go to see Brandon again? Otherwise, why would he help me again?” Natalie frowned and studied his face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSomething seemed fishy.
‘Why would Brandon find the fraud group that had deceived Hannah and eradicate it without Natalie informing him about the details? Natalie didn’t doubt Brandon's capability but was still confused about his intentions. Sebastian took out a can of beer from the fridge, opened it, and gulped it down.
Leaning against the fridge, he cast a sidelong glance at Natalie.
“Brandon is different from us. People like him always have everything planned. We can hardly find out what he is thinking.
Perhaps he thinks you're an asset to the company. That's probably why he is being friendly with you. Helping you might be an investment that could reap a lot of benefits in the future.” Natalie took what he said with a pinch of salt.
Sebastian's expression was unreadable. She couldn't tell if he was telling the truth or hiding something from her. She opened and closed her mouth, not knowing what to say. Sebastian could tell that she still doubted him. He sighed and sat beside her.
‘I think you're overthinking this. Your boss thinks highly of you; | don't think he has any hidden motive. You have to be proud of yourself.” “I just want to know the truth. Sebastian, tell me. | won't be mad at you even if you meet Brandon without telling me.” Natalie held Sebastian's arm and sized him up.
Sebastian had always been a determined man. Garrett always considered him to be a sophisticated man. No one in the business world could read his mind, but his judgment was always right.
Sebastian could tell what Natalie was thinking.
“You are imagining things. It wasn't easy for me to meet him the
last time. After all, he is the president of the Larson Group. | can’t meet him as and when | like.” Sebastian rubbed her back.
Then, he gently slid his hand down and massaged her waist.
“Don’t overthink this.” He leaned closer and whispered in her ear, “This issue is solved. You should be happy. There is no point in worrying about it now. Do you want to rest for a while? I'll go and wash the dishes, babe.” Natalie pursed her lips and fell silent.
Sebastian sounded so gentle and sweet at the moment. Natalie liked the way he treated her now. After all, she was attracted to Sebastian.
“All right. You can go now.” Sebastian breathed a sigh of relief, pecked on the corner of her lips, and went into the kitchen. Natalie was a little tired. She hadn't managed to sleep well ever since she moved to Sebastian's room. She stretched her sore back and glanced at Sebastian, who was busy watching the dishes. An involuntary smile stretched across her lips.
Sebastian was charming and didn't shy away from doing household chores. Anyone would fall in love with him.
The smile on Natalie's face froze as she thought about something.
Sebastian sensed her burning gaze. He smiled to himself without looking up. “Are you supervising if 'm properly washing the dishes or not?” However, there was no response from Natalie. He frowned and looked back. Natalie was standing at the kitchen door, staring at him intently.
“Sebastian!? What's your relationship with Brandon?” Sebastian let out a startled gasp and almost broke the bowl in his hand. He took deep breaths and immediately calmed down.
“I'm just an illegitimate child of the Klein family. How could | have any kind of relationship with the CEO of the Larson Group?” Sebastian cleaned the last bowl, wiped it dry, and placed it on the cabinet above his head.
Then he took the kitchen towel and carefully wiped his slender fingers. Natalie felt uncomfortable as she stared at his handsome face. The doubt in her heart seemed to grow with every passing moment.
The more she thought about it, the more she believed that Brandon and Sebastian were related in some way.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBrandon was a good-looking man, and Sebastian wouldn't lose
anything by being in a relationship with him. Natalie's face reddened.
She rested her hands on her hips and glared at him.
“Are you two hiding something from me?” Brandon was gay, and that was why he didn’t seem interested in her. ‘Then why is he helping me time and again? Is he actually interested in Sebastian? Is he helping me because I'm married to Sebastian?’ “What could possibly happen between us?” Sebastian's eyes darkened as he strode toward her. Natalie involuntarily stepped backward and raised her hand to stop him.
“Don’t come over. | need to sort my thoughts.” She was still racking her brains to figure out what was going on.
Sebastian had told Natalie that he had talked to Brandon. That was how all her doubts started. It seemed suspicious because he should have had no chance to talk to Brandon. Sebastian had not only contacted him, but also learned his sexual orientation.
Natalie couldn't help but wonder if Sebastian and Brandon shared a special relationship. Besides, Sebastian didn't seem like an idler who wasted his time. There was an air of mystique around him. It was understandable for Brandon to have feelings for him.
Natalie felt her guess was likely to be right. B Sebastian's heart was racing in his chest. Natalie eyed him with suspicion. She looked doubtful, confident, disgusted, and ‘sympathetic.
The mixed reaction confused him more. Sebastian lifted Natalie and threw her on his shoulder, ignoring her protests.
“What the hell are you thinking about?” he asked, patting her butt.
Natalie was stunned when he put her down. Sebastian cupped her face and kissed her.
“Drop that look on your face. It turns me on.” Natalie snapped out of her trance and glared at him. Sebastian was domineering and always exuded a majestic aura. Natalie couldn't picture him having an affair with Brandon, yet that seemed like the only possibility. She ignored Sebastian's words and asked, “What do you think of Brandon?” “Hmm... not bad. He is an excellent businessman.” Sebastian scratched his nose and felt that Natalie was acting strange today.
“Don't think you can fool me by pretending to be innocent. | know what you two are up to,” Natalie said, arching an eyebrow His evasiveness irked her.
