The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

At nine in the evening, Natalie finally returned home with a shopping bag.

She had gone to several men’s clothing shops, hoping to find the perfect outfit for Sebastian.

Unfortunately, she didn’t know his size. Therefore, she ended up buying a belt for him.

Sebastian put away the documents on the table and looked at Natalie. A frown lined his forehead as he

realized she looked exhausted. “What happened? Why are you so late?”

He opened the refrigerator and took a bottle of soda.

“Well, I got caught up with something.” Natalie put the bag on the table and slumped on the sofa. “I’m

thirsty. Grab me a bottle.”

After a moment’s thought, Sebastian frowned and pressed the soda bottle against her cheek. Then, he

sat beside her. “No. Are you on your period?”

“Sebastian! How… how did you know that?” Natalie involuntary cupped her mouth with her palms and

looked at him with wide eyes. She was both embarrassed and shocked.

It looked like the boundaries between them was getting thinner with every passing day.

Sebastian slung his arm around her shoulder and raised his chin toward the bathroom. “You’re very

forgetful. You left the box of sanitary pads on the washbasin this morning. I’ve put them in the cabinet

for you.”

Natalie didn’t know what to say. Sebastian tucked a loose strand of her hair behind her ear and smiled.

“Did someone taunt you? You came home looking upset.”

Natalie sighed and told him everything about what Elaine had done at the shopping mall.

“Why didn’t you call me? I would have taught her a lesson for bullying you.” Sebastian’s face darkened.

He leaned closer and pinched her cheek.

Natalie slapped Sebastian’s hand away and nestled closer to him. “I could handle it myself!” she said,

blinking at him. “Besides, there were surveillance cameras everywhere.”

Sebastian arched an eyebrow in reprimand. “Well, thankfully, there were surveillance cameras this

time. What if there wasn’t any way to prove your innocence?”

Natalie pursed her lips and played with her fingers.

“I didn’t think about it. Even otherwise, I don’t think you’d be able to prove my innocence. It would have

only been unnecessary trouble for you.”

Sebastian looked at her as a small smile tugged at the corners of his lips. “What makes you think I

wouldn’t have been able to help you?”

Dealing with such a problem was a piece of cake for Sebastian. He could buy the entire shopping mall

with the snap of a finger.

Every shop in the mall would belong to him, and his wife could just take anything she liked.

“By the way, I bought you a gift.” Natalie pointed at the bag on the table.

“Miss Quinn, you’ve acted fast. I’m impressed.” Sebastian’s face beamed with joy. He had only casually

mentioned it in their conversation last night.

Sebastian picked up the bag on the table and opened it. Inside was a pure black leather belt. Although

it looked stylish, the texture and quality were average. Sebastian knew that was all Natalie could get for

her budget.

In his unoccupied villa, there were hundreds of belts with excellent workmanship that was a thousand

times better than this one. However, Sebastian loved this belt more than anything else.

“It looks good.” Sebastian’s smile broadened, and his eyes twinkled with delight. He leaned forward

and kissed the top of her head. His heart melted into a puddle at the sweetness of her gesture.

He happily clutched the belt.

Natalie smoothed her bangs and smiled.

She had chosen the belt in a hurry. Part of her had been worrying that Sebastian might not like it, but

she was finally relieved to witness his reaction.

“Don’t try to be brave when you encounter problems like this again. I can always help you. Remember

that.” Sebastian looked into her eyes. Their faces were inches apart; they could feel each other’s

breath.

Natalie’s face turned hot when she met his gaze. His hot breath drove her insane. She curled up in his

arms as countless thoughts exploded in her mind. She couldn’t comprehend her emotions.

Natalie’s mind instantly flitted to the passionate kiss they shared last night.

She quickly withdrew herself from his warm embrace.

“Oh, I… I see. I’m glad you like the gift. Well, it’s getting late. I’m going back to my room.”

Sebastian’s brows furrowed as he saw Natalie sprint into her room. He didn’t bother chasing after her.

Something seemed wrong. Sebastian understood that Natalie didn’t think he was capable enough to

help her, and that was why she didn’t call him for help.

It looked like he had to get close to Natalie as Brandon.

Even if Natalie didn’t ask him for help, she could always resort to Brandon’s aid.

The next day, when Natalie was engrossed in work, her phone chimed.

It was a private message from Brandon.

“The Larson Group is holding a dinner party next week. I want you to attend it on behalf of the design

department.”

Natalie was taken aback.

“No, no, no! I don’t think it’s a good idea,” Natalie muttered to herself, staring at the screen.

She was a new employee of the company. How could she attend such a ceremonious occasion?

Natalie quickly typed her message. “Mr. Larson, why don’t you ask Ms. Fisher to attend the party? I’ve

never been to such opulent parties before. I’m afraid I might end up making a fool of myself and bring

disgrace to the design department.”

Brandon quickly replied, “Fisher isn’t available that night. Many big shots and prestigious people in the

design field will attend the party. You can get to know them and increase your contacts. It will help your

career in the long run.

His words reminded Natalie of what Ike had previously done to her. She was afraid that history might

repeat itself.

A shiver ran down her spine.

Just as she wondered how to refuse, Brandon sent another message.

“Don’t worry. This is a formal dinner party organized by our company. Garrett and other senior

executives will also attend it. Besides, you can bring a date.”

Natalie’s eyes widened. She looked around to see if the CEO was watching her through a secret

camera. He was talking to her as if he had read her mind.

Natalie breathed a sigh of relief after knowing that she could bring someone to accompany her.

She could take Sebastian with her. That way, she would feel safe and protected.

After work, the HR department sent Natalie an invitation to the dinner party. It was an elegant gilded

envelope written in a beautiful font.

The invitation revealed the Larson Group’s power and wealth.

When Natalie arrived home, she was surprised to find that Sebastian was already back.

He walked out of the bathroom in nothing but a towel, water dripping from his hair. His chiseled

muscles flexed with every move.

“Sebastian, why are you not wearing any clothes?” Natalie hurriedly turned her face as a blush flamed

her cheeks.
