Seeing the frown on Natalie’s face, Sebastian followed her gaze and saw his watch. Moments later, he

realized what she was thinking. “This is a knock-off that I borrowed from my friend,” he whispered into

her ear. “I usually wear it to look cool but didn’t expect you’d notice it soon.”

Sebastian removed the watch and put it into his pocket.

“It looks real.” Natalie smiled and stepped back, covering her flaming ears.

Sebastian was leaning closer, and she could feel his breath blowing in her ear as he spoke.

As Natalie thought about it, she realized it was normal for a man like Sebastian to have a street friend

who sold fakes.

She breathed a sigh of relief. For a moment, Natalie had freaked out, thinking Sebastian had done

something illegal to make a fortune.

Sebastian knitted his brows. He had heard that the daughter of the Quinn family had several boyfriends

and hung out with different men all the time. The girl’s shyness seemed to surprise him.

“The bridegroom is here. Why hasn’t the wedding started yet?” asked a sweet voice of a woman.

Cassie grinned and walked forward, holding her boyfriend’s arm. “Since the bridegroom is here, let me

introduce my boyfriend to you,” she said, deliberately raising her voice a decibel higher. “This is Steve

Carter, the eldest son of the Carter family. We are family. Steve and I can help you in the future.”

Steve hurriedly lowered his head. It was almost as though he was too ashamed to meet Natalie’s gaze.

When Natalie saw Steve arrive with Cassie, she felt nothing. So she pretended that it was their first

time to meet and commented lightly, “Nice introduction. But your current boyfriend is different from the

one I saw last week. I wonder if you’re going to be with him or not next week.”

Steve’s feigned smile instantly went stiff.

Smiling embarrassedly, Cassie then shot Natalie a murderous glare and quickly changed the subject.

“Anyway, if you’d like, I can refer Sebastian to the Carter family’s company. I’m sure they’d be willing to

take him in even if he doesn’t know any technical skills. Maybe he can do the chores like mopping the

floor and cleaning the toilet, that kind of thing. After all, it’s better to have a real job than roaming

around idly after getting married.”

Natalie stole a nervous glance at Sebastian. Unexpectedly, he didn’t seem to mind such insulting

words. He simply broke into a warm smile and waved his hand dismissively. “No, thanks. I like roaming

around outside.”

Without getting the reaction she expected, Cassie’s face fell and she returned to her seat sulkily,

dragging Steve along with her.

Soon, the priest arrived and hastily finished the wedding.

Sebastian took Natalie back to a small house in the suburb.

The place was small, old, and shabby, but at least they had a house to return to. The house looked

empty and hoarded only basic necessities. She felt they were recent additions simply for the wedding.

Sebastian was a tall, muscular man; the narrow space somehow looked smaller after he came in.

It seemed obvious that he barely made ends meet.

“This is my home. Make do with it.” Sebastian shrugged casually. He didn’t seem embarrassed in the

slightest.

“Yes, it’s a small house, yet it looks tidy. It can accommodate the two of us.”

Natalie was honest. Although the house looked shabby, Sebastian had maintained it well. The yard

looked neat, and the house looked spotless. However, it didn’t feel like a home — it was too empty;

perhaps because Sebastian seldom stayed there.

Natalie looked around. She saw that Sebastian had taken off his suit jacket and put it on a wooden

chair. He was unbuttoning his white shirt. She trailed her gaze across his body and saw the toned

muscles under his shirt. It looked like he had been working out regularly.

Sensing her gaze, Sebastian turned his head and met Natalie’s anxious eyes. He stopped and walked

toward her. “You’ve been busy all day. Do you want to shower first?” he asked intently.
