The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Sebastian couldn’t help but chuckle.

“All right, all right.Let’s sit over there and catch up.”

It was all the encouragement Curt needed.

He grabbed the younger man’s hand and guided him over to a nearby table.

Ritchie and his goons watched it all unfold, dumbfounded at what they were seeing.

They couldn’t do anything about it, though; they didn’t want to make a fuss and paint themselves in a bad light.

Still, they would pause and stare at Curt and Sebastian every so often.

After all, a good number of the guests had come for a chance opportunity to make Curt’s acquaintance.

Who would have thought that Sebastian was actually good friends with the man?

“What the hell is going on here?” Ritchie asked his assistant through gritted teeth.

“Why would that punk know someone like Curt Benton?”

But his employee was just as clueless as everyone else.

“I know, right? And they seem to be close, too.”

Ritchie whacked him at the back of the head.

“I see that, you idiot.I’m not blind! I’m asking you how it came about!”

Meanwhile, Kaya was still pestering Natalie and was about to say something when she caught sight of Sebastian and Curt chatting jovially to one side.

She gasped, her eyes wide as saucers.

“Your husband knows Mr.Benton?”

“I’m not entirely sure...” Natalie said tentatively.Though she looked calm, she was also confused.

She didn’t really know who Curt Benton was, but judging by everybody’s reaction, she surmised that he must be someone important.

In any case, this was probably for the best.

Surely, with Curt Benton on their side, no one would dare to bully them anymore.

Kaya’s jaw dropped.

She had just mocked Natalie for marrying a loser, yet that exact same man was now speaking with the most prestigious guest at the party.

She flushed with embarrassment and let go of Natalie’s hand like it was a lump of hot coal.

The event officially began shortly after, and the guests were asked to be seated.

One by one, delectable dishes were brought out and served.

Natalie sat next to Sebastian, of course, with Curt on his other side.

The two men were still deep in conversation, though Sebastian made a point of holding Natalie’s hand under the table.

Left with nothing better to do, Natalie began to eat.

Now and then, she would catch words about their discussion, which seemed to revolve around stocks and the stock market.

Once or twice, she heard mention of the Wall Street.

They occasionally switched to French, to Natalie’s utter surprise.

From what she could tell, Sebastian was very fluent at the language.

The rest of their dialogue didn’t concern Natalie, so she decided to focus on her dinner and let them do their thing.

It had been a long time since the last time Curt and Sebastian had seen each other.

They chatted happily at the birthday party, trying to catch up as much as possible.During this time, there was no one who dared to offend Natalie and Sebastian again.

At the end of the birthday party, Curt’s assistant checked his watch and approached the old man.

“Mr.Benton, it’s time to head back to take your medicine. The doctor has instructed me to remind you to take your medicine on time every day,” the assistant said in a low voice next to Curt’s ear.

“The medicine prescribed by those quack doctors is so bitter that it makes me sick to my stomach.I finally met up with Sebastian today and was able to catch up with him.Why do you keep pushing me to go home?”

Curt snorted like he was still a child who was told to go to bed early.

Sebastian became serious once more.He knew of ways to persuade this stubborn old man.

“We’ve already talked for a long time.If you want to chat some more with me, I’ll go out of my way to pay a visit to your house another time.”

Curt said farewell to Sebastian rather reluctantly, “I have no idea when you’ll go to visit me. You’d better keep your promise, Sebastian.”

After that, he turned to look at Natalie and said, “Goodbye.”

Startled, Natalie nodded in a respectful manner and said, “Bye.”

She thought that Curt had not noticed her all this time.

Curt talked with Nora some more before he exited the birthday party.

Sebastian came to attend the party simply to celebrate Nora’s birthday.

Seeing that the party was nearly over, he was about to leave too.

“Do you feel tired? Shall we head back?” Sebastian patted Natalie on her back affectionately.

“There was so much good food here and you seemed to have eaten a lot.How about we go for a walk?” Natalie indeed had eaten her fill.

Though the Klein family’s members were not that nice, the food they had at the party was really delicious.“All right, it’ll be good for digestion.”

While holding her bag in her hand, Natalie got up.

When they were about to head out together, an extremely dignified voice sounded out, “Sebastian, wait a minute.”

They turned their heads and looked back in the direction of the voice.

A middle-aged man in a dark red suit was making his way over and was standing behind them.He looked over the age of fifty.His black hair was intermingled with gray hair.He was both tall and strong, overflowing with health and spirits.He was none other than Patrick, Sebastian’s biological father and the master of the Klein family.

Patrick had watched from the side as Sebastian and Curt talked together for a long time at the party.

He asked in a serious voice, “Tell me, how do you know Curt?”

People who knew famous people like Curt must be very extraordinary in some aspects, but Patrick thought he was missing something.

In his eyes, there was nothing remarkable about his useless son.

“It was sheer luck that we came to know each other,” Sebastian answered.

Patrick took two steps forward toward his son and said in a serious voice, “We’re thinking about collaborating with Curt.”

Sebastian understood what Patrick meant when he said that.

He pretended to be ignorant of his meaning though, and said, “Then I hope you can have a good chat with him about this collaboration. We’re heading back first.”

With a fierce look plastered all over his face, Patrick said in an impatient voice, “Since you and Curt have such a good relationship, you should help us win the collaboration. You’ll also benefit a whole lot from it.”Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
