The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Although Johanna still put on airs, Sebastian could tell that she was being sincere. It seemed that they were really ready to accept their son-in-law.

Wondering if this was all an illusion, Sebastian had to close his eyes and gather his bearings. He wouldn’t relax until Natalie came back.

“Dad, Mom, come and have some breakfast. I’ll take care of...”

With a tray of food in her hands, Natalie walked in and looked at Sebastian first even though she was talking to her parents.

When she saw that he was awake, her eyes lit up and she broke into a huge grin.

After Beal and Johanna left, Sebastian narrowed his eyes suspiciously and mused, “Your parents were so mean to me before.

Why are they so kind to me all of a sudden?”

Natalie peeled the lid off of the take-out bowl, and the delicious aroma of chicken soup wafted in the air.

“When you were still unconscious, they found out that you had saved me. My mother looked at you under a new light. It was as if you were her own son,” Natalie added in a half-joking tone. She scooped up a spoonful of soup, blew on it, and guided it to Sebastian’s lips.

“You were knocked out for a whole night. The doctor said that you must eat more to replenish your energy.” With his deep gaze fixed on Natalie, Sebastian’s lips parted slightly to accept the spoonful of soup. Then he patted her thigh and said in a low voice,

“Totally worth it.”

Natalie chuckled and shook her head helplessly. “You’re hurt, , so be careful. My mother’s right outside. If she sees you misbehave, she will get angry again. It wasn’t easy for you to earn their favor, and you’ll have to keep earning it.”

Sebastian coughed and glanced at the door to the ward nervously. Then, he became serious. “The ceiling of the cinema wouldn’t just collapse for no reason. Did they release an official statement regarding the incident?”

Natalie continued to feed him, but the light in her eyes dimmed slightly. “The matter’s still under investigation.

There’s no conclusive results yet. Mom told me that it was newly built, so the ceiling couldn’t have collapsed unless there was a major construction flaw. So it’s all rather suspicious.”“It was no accident,” Sebastian said in a low voice, an imperceptible ruthlessness flashing in his eyes. Somebody had caused the roof to collapse, just like how somebody had started the fire downstairs their apartment before.

The incident was so serious that it caused a sensation.

As long as Sebastian investigated it thoroughly, he would find out who was behind this. In the following days, Sebastian stayed in Barnes for his recuperation. Meanwhile, he tasked Garrett with the investigation of this matter secretly.

“I am not your servant! How could you still order me around while you’re not even in town?” Garrett complained on the phone. He was under the impression that after Sebastian left, one could enjoy a good holiday. However, despite being all the way in Barnes, Sebastian still enslaved him.

Sebastian rubbed the spot between his eyebrows and said seriously, “This accident might have something to do with the Klein family. I’m in Barnes now, plus I’m injured. I can’t do this myself.”

“Fine. I’ll send someone to investigate it now,” Garrett said reluctantly.

After hanging up, Sebastian asked the man standing outside the door to come in.

“Mr. Larson.” The man bowed slightly to show his respect.

“So what happened?” Sebastian cut straight to the chase, his expression darkening.

“Someone did something to compromise the ceiling, so it collapsed.”

“Go on.”

‘I believe that the ‘accident’ was directly aimed at you and Mrs. Larson. At the time, several of my men were stationed in the corner of the cinema. The ceiling collapsed so suddenly that we didn’t have the time to rush in and save you.”

The man glanced at Sebastian with fear in his eyes and swallowed.

“In order to get to you, whoever’s behind this was willing to sacrifice innocent people, which means they’re both powerful and cold-blooded.” Sebastian pressed his fingertips against his temple and sighed.

‘lll ask my people in Seacisco to take care of it.”Soon, Garrett called Sebastian with the investigation report.

“Indeed, it’s the Klein family behind all of this. Klein Silk Fabric was the biggest investor of that cinema.”

After a moment’s hesitation, Garrett couldn’t hold himself back.

“Your family is clearly determined to kill you. They even go as far to destroy a building they invested in and hurt countless other innocent people. How are you going to fight back? You can’t just let them walk all over you! Otherwise, who knows what horrible ideas they will come up with again to get rid of you?”

Truth be told, Sebastian had already guessed that only Elissa would be willing to do such a reckless thing. But trying to kill him in the cinema-and injuring innocent people in the process crossed the line. Elissa had caused a great commotion in an effort to kill him.

She would’ve been fine if her murder attempt was successful. But because Et han had survived, he was determined to make Elissa pay for her crime.

“Elissa’s digging her own grave.” Sebastian narrowed his eyes and sneered coldly.Garrett raised his eyebrow dubiously.

“You’re fighting back, are you? This is more like it! Damn, I’m just excited!” Talk of the collapse of a newly-constructed cinema exploded on the Internet.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

This collapse was different from the fire accident in Seacisco before. The large number of casualties this time had attracted the attention of the relevant departments. Even the local government started investigated the matter. In Seacisco, Garrett had been paying close attention to this case.

“Aren’t you going to make a move?” His eyes flashing dangerously, Sebastian replied, “I just want them to go through hell before I pushed them even deeper down the abyss of despair.”

Later that day, Sebastian made public all the information and evidence he had gathered. As one of the victims, he cooperated with the relevant departments in their investigation. He also joined hands with other victims and their family to call for justice on the Internet.

In the Klein family’s home in Seacisco. Elissa had just smoked two packs of cigarettes and the whole room was filled with smoke. When Ritchie walked into the room, he felt choked by all that smoke.“Mom, it’s dinner time.” He lifted his hand and fanned the smoke away from his face. After that, he could make out that Elissa was sitting on the edge of the bed, smoking yet another cigarette.

“What does the news say? What’s your father’s attitude like?” Elissa’s fingers shook and her face was in the shadows, so there was no way to see the expression on her face.

Ritchie scratched the back of his head and then said, “Several families of those hurt have taken banners to protest under our office building. Dad is still at the company currently. It’s most likely that he has snapped because of this.”
