Sebastian's passionate kisses made her scalp tingle.She didn’t even have the time to turn the light on; Sebastian had trapped her in his tight embrace.
He slowly opened his eyes and rubbed his heaving chest against hers.
“Just lie down.! will do all the work.” His voice was thick with lust.
“It's already late.| have to go to work tomorrow.Now that Hannah's gone, I'll move back to my room.” Natalie turned around and pushed him away.
“How about next time? | really am exhausted now.” Sebastian's relationship with Brandon still bothered Natalie.
She now suspected that Sebastian was gay or at least bisexual, and she just couldn't give herself to him knowing her boyfriend had another boyfriend.
However, Sebastian didn't know what was on Natalie's mind.He just wanted to consummate their relationship by making love to her.He wanted their first time to be special and memorable.
However, Natalie was right.
It was better to save it for another time when both were free and up for it.
Sebastian bit her earlobe and mumbled, “All right.I'll let you go this time, but you better sleep in my room.” Before Natalie could respond, he cupped her cheeks and kissed her passionately. He was desperate to make love to her.
The news about the fraudsters and their arrest became viral on the Internet.
Thereby, all the rumors about Natalie were cleared.
The next moming, when Natalie went to work, she bumped into Christopher in the elevator.
He was holding an enormous box in his hands “Chris, are you quitting?” Natalie asked in surprise.
Christopher shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I'm transferred to our branch in Snape. They've appointed me as the new department director.” It took half a day to take a bullet train from Snape to Seacisco.
Snape was a prominent city that was still under construction, so property prices were much lower than that of Seacisco.In a word, Snape had promise in terms of development.
It'd be good if Christopher worked as a department director of the company in Snape.
Although it meant that he couldn't work in the company headquarters, it was still a promotion.
Natalie sincerely thought this was a good thing.
In her eyes, the Larson Group was giving him a chance to achieve his full potential.
“It's all so sudden. didn’t know it was coming at all. The HR department told me just yesterday that Mr.Larson himself gave the order.” Scratching the back of his head, Christopher looked down at Natalie anxiously.It seemed like he wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
“What? Really?” As soon as Natalie heard that Brandon was behind this, she pricked up her ears.Christopher nodded.
To his surprise, Natalie frowned deeply, as though she was thinking about something.
Natalie wasn't completely certain, but there were just too many coincidences between Sebastian and Brandon.
Otherwise, why else was Christopher suddenly being transferred to a remote office all of a sudden? She knew better than anyone else that Sebastian wanted to put as much distance
between Christopher and her as possible.
Natalie suspected that perhaps Sebastian asked Brandon to do this.
If Sebastian could persuade Brandon to transfer the employee of the Larson Group, what did that say about the relationship between the two men? Could Brandon value Sebastian enough to follow his requests? “Honestly, I'm not too happy about the promotion.I don’t want to move to another city.” Christopher tightened his grip around the carton in his hand.He stared at Natalie for a long time with complicated emotions.When he first learned about his transfer, his knee-jerk reaction was to refuse.But after calming down and weighing the pros and cons, he decided to take the promotion.He figured that it would be better this way.He had no future with Natalie anyway.
If he stayed away from her long enough, maybe one day his infatuation with her would die down.
“Snape isn't that different from Seacisco.t'll take some getting used to, but I'm sure I'll be fine.” Unable to find the words to respond, Natalie pretended to ignore
what he said.
“Chris, let me see you off.” Natalie still kept Sebastian's warning in mind.
Now that she couldn't invite Christopher to dinner, she could only say goodbye to him.She accompanied Christopher until he hailed a taxi.As she walked back to her desk, she mulled over the relationship between Sebastian and Brandon once again.
The more convinced she was of her theory, the more she wanted to find some evidence to prove it.
But even if it turned out to be true, she didn’t know what to do.
When she arrived at her desk, only then did she realize that the entire design department was in a state of chaos.
Everyone was talking about something excitedly.
When Gerda saw her colleague’s questioning look, she excitedly showed Natalie the notice in the chat group.
“Quinn! Look at the notice!” It turned out that the Larson Group was going to hold a masquerade ball as a reward to the employees.
What caught Natalie's attention was that Brandon was also attending the party.
This was the perfect opportunity! If Natalie could take Sebastian
with her to the ball, that'd put the two men in the same room.
That way, she might get a chance to figure out their relationship.
Natalie retumed home and invited Sebastian to join the ball with her.
“A masquerade ball?” Sebastian asked breathlessly.
Sebastian was doing pushups on the balcony.He did a dozen more pushups before standing up.Then, he grabbed a bottle of water, gulped it down, and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“When?” Natalie raked her eyes across the chiseled muscles on his waist.
Ablush flamed her cheeks, so she quickly averted her gaze and looked at the towering buildings in the distance.
“Saturday... Saturday night.” With a pensive look on his face, Sebastian thought for a while.
Then, he threw the empty bottle into the trashcan, walked over to Natalie, and stroked her hair.
“I'm on night shift in the convenience store that day. can pick you up after the party ends though.” That night, Sebastian was going to attend the party as Brandon,
so of course he couldn't go with Natalie as Sebastian.Several veterans and big shots would be attending the party.It would be respectable only if Brandon Larson himself attended the party and received them.
“Can't you trade your shift with someone else? All my colleagues will bring their partners along.” Natalie leaned against the glass door, blocking Sebastian's way.
Sebastian's response seemed to increase her suspicion.
“Then, | won't go either.Everyone at the ball will have a partner. I'll feel left out.” Then Natalie's eyes widened as she turned to look at Sebastian as if she had come up with a great idea.
“Or | can ask if any of my male colleagues can accompany me."A frown lined Sebastian's forehead.He saw Natalie running toward the sofa to grab her phone.
It looked like she was sending a message to someone.
He quickly put on the black T-shirt lying on the sofa and sat beside her.
“I didn’t say | can't ask for leave that day,” he said, taking the phone from her.
“Your expression told me that you don't want to come with me.”
Natalie looked at him with big innocent doe eyes.
Sebastian wiped the sweat off his face and smiled helplessly.
“Well, what can | say? You'll really be the death of me.” He smiled and returned the phone to her.
However, that wasn't the answer Natalie expected to hear.
“Will you be joining me or not?” Sebastian picked up his phone and waved it at her.
“I'm calling the convenience store now to ask for leave.” Going to the ball with Natalie seemed more important to him now.
