The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

However, she couldn’t see past Garrett’s tall figure.

Upon craning her neck slightly, she only saw Brandon’s broad back.

With his head bowed, Brandon was escorted away by a group of men in black suits.

That whole time, she didn’t get even a glimpse of his face.

“What are you looking at, Quinn?”

With a pair of charming eyes, Garrett followed her gaze and sneered cryptically.

“So, you were trying to get a look at Brandon, huh? It’s a pity he left too soon.”

“No, no. You misunderstand.Mr.Harding, please don’t make fun of me.”Riddled with guilt, Natalie quickly averted her gaze.

She didn’t want to talk to him anymore, so she turned around to leave.

“I’ll get going, Mr.Harding.”

With a smile on his face, Garrett took two steps forward and offered kindly, “Let me drive you home. It’s so late.”

Truth be told, someone had tasked him to send her home safely.

Frowning slightly, Natalie didn’t think it was appropriate for him to send her home alone at such a late hour.

“No, thanks.I don’t think it’s a good idea, Mr.Harding.Besides, my home isn’t that far from the company. It’s only a short walk away.”

“You look like you think I’m going to bite you.But okay, be safe, Quinn!”

With an unbothered smile, Garrett turned around and went back into the building leisurely.Since he had promised Sebastian, he wasn’t about to go back on his word.

He quickly found a bodyguard to secretly follow Natalie.He didn’t feel relieved until he heard that she arrived home safely.

It was already half past one when Natalie got home that evening.

Quiet as a mouse, she opened the door and crept inside.Only the sound of the clock ticking on the wall could be heard.

Natalie flicked on the light switch.

To her surprise, the sandwich from breakfast was still sitting on the table where she left it, and there was not a beer bottle in sight.

She walked into the living room in her slippers and looked around in confusion, “Sebastian?”

It was so late, but Sebastian seemed to not have come back yet.

Or was he asleep in his room? Natalie had half a mind to knock on his bedroom door, but decided against it on second thought.

She was afraid she’d just wake him up.

In the end, she quietly opened his door and poked her head in.

To her surprise, the room was empty.

With a slight frown, Natalie decided to wait for Sebastian to come back.She wasn’t sleepy anyway.

After everything that had happened, she was wide awake.She popped the sandwich in the microwave to heat it up.She settled on the sofa and watched TV while eating.

All the while, she kept thinking of what had happened in the elevator.

About twenty minutes later, she heard the sound of the key unlocking the door.

Sebastian stepped inside wearing a simple, clean white T- shirt underneath a black windbreaker.

His prominent nose stuck out more than usual, making him look even more handsome.

Chewing on her sandwich, Natalie looked up at him questioningly.

“Why’Te you so late?”

“Night shift.A colleague was late, so I covered his shift for another half an hour,” Sebastian explained briefly.

As he spoke, he realized he was getting more and more skillful at lying.“Oh, do you have night shifts often? I didn’t know you could stay up this late all the time,” Natalie said, after thinking about it fora while.

Sebastian shrugged off his coat and sat next to her.

“What are you eating? It smells so good.” He craned his neck to get a bite of her sandwich, then he put his arm around her shoulder and pinched it.

Raising his eyebrows slightly, he smiled.

“You always stay up late. Why are you getting so worked up about me staying up late?”

Unable to retort, Natalie kept silent and looked down, feeling a bit sheepish.He was right.

She worked overtime a lot and was often late to go home.

“By the way, something happened today,” she suddenly said, looking up at him with bright eyes.

Then she relayed what had happened in the elevator with Brandon.

On the one hand, she thought it was her responsibility to inform Sebastian about this.

On the other, she was curious to see how he would react to this.

She was under the impression that Sebastian was very tolerant of her boss despite his behavior.So since Brandon had crossed the line today, she wondered if Sebastian would finally get angry.

Otherwise, he was a really abnormal man.

And Natalie wouldn’t be pleased if that was the case.

Sebastian rubbed his eyebrows, his thin lips pursed into a straight line.

When he heard how Natalie had screamed in the elevator, he tossed logic out of the window and just rushed to hug her protectively.

In a situation as dangerous as that, if the elevator plunged to the ground, he still wanted to protect her.But he was Brandon at that time, so it was definitely inappropriate for him to do such a thing.

Sebastian could feel Natalie’s eyes boring into him.

She was obviously waiting for him to react.

Last time, he didn’t show jealousy towards Brandon, which made Natalie unhappy.

If he was still indifferent to the matter this time, Natalie would definitely break up with him.

“Why are you so quiet? Say something!” Seeing that Sebastian didn’t reply to her, Natalie frowned unhappily and tugged at his arm urgently.

Was he a robot? How could he be so poker faced after what she just told him? Moreover, the question that kept hanging over Natalie’s head was eating away at her—did he like her or not?

“Calm down.I’m just thinking about how to deal with Brandon.I can’t just scold him for getting trapped in an elevator with you.!

have to think it through before I do anything.”

Sebastian’s expression darkened, as if he had made up his mind.

Natalie propped herself up and asked anxiously, “What? What do you want to do? I hope you won’t act rashly, Sebastian.Brandon is the CEO of the Larson Group.We can’t afford to offend him.”

Sebastian chuckled lightly.

“Don’t worry.I know what I’m doing.I’ll just talk to him.” Natalie’s eyes widened in surprise.

“How? You can’t just walk into his office! Even I can’t do that.”

Sebastian shrugged and said firmly, “I’ll figure it out.I have a lot of connections.I’m sure I’ll be able to get to him, one way or another.” Although Sebastian was calm and composed as he spoke, Natalie couldn’t help but worry that Sebastian would stir up trouble for her.

Seeing the worried look on the woman’s face, Sebastian gave her a reassuring smile and lowered his head to kiss her lips.

His loose black hair brushed against her face.“Didn’t you want me to do something about it? Yet now that I’ve told you what I’m going to do, you’re worried. You silly girl.Don’t worry.I’ll handle it,” he joked lightly.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

“I just wanted to know whether you care about me or not,” Natalie said shyly, lowering her eyes.

Her delicate lashes quivered slightly. Then she looked up and met his eyes.

“So how are you going to talk to Brandon?”

“It’s a secret.”
