The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Feeling disappointed, Johanna shook her head and checked the time.

“Well, it‘s late, I‘m going to bed now. Natalie, you should get some rest as well.”

Natalie proceeded to hug her mother and headed back to her bedroom. On the second day, when Natalie was about to head out, Lila, who was going down the stairs, caught up with her and stopped her from leaving.

Lila stopped Natalie on her way out. She flipped her hair and glared daggers at Natalie angrily, “Why did you rat on me?”

“I didn‘t want to meddle in your affairs, but you‘re a member of this family. What you do will go on to affect the whole family a great deal,” Natalie said indifferently.

“Eric is a married man now. If the two of you get together, you‘ll only go on to disgrace the White family‘s name.” Lila glared at her and it was hard for her not to push her on the shoulder.

“Don‘t act so lofty! You simply hate me because I had stolen what should‘ve been yours for so many years. You still despise me for not telling you the parachute was broken. You simply wanted to get back at me!”

The more she spoke, the louder her voice got. Lila‘s face also reddened out of anger. She kept right on pushing Natalie back.

Natalie grabbed hold of Lila‘s wrist and sneered in utter disbelief.

“Since you know you‘ve owed me that much, you should feel guilty about it.” Natalie shook off Lila‘s hand and was turning around to leave.

However, she turned her head and reminded Lila in a cold voice again, “Eric won‘t divorce his wife. Mom and Dad said all those things for your very own good. I hope you will wake up soon. Even if you‘re not their biological daughter, you can marry a decent man because you‘re still a White. But if you keep right on doing this, everyone will think of you as a shameless home wrecker!”

Lila was being lectured by Natalie right then. Lila became exasperated and said, “Who the hell do you think you are? You‘re really in no position to lecture me! I do what I want to do and there‘s nobody who can stop me!”

She grabbed hold of Natalie‘s arm and shouted out loud hysterically, “This wasn‘t my fault. Why do you hate me so much? You simply can‘t bear to see me happy. Are you trying to destroy my life?”

It never occurred to Lila that she had been wrong and done horrible things. Beal and Johanna were both very kind people. They had always gone out of their way to teach her to be a kind person.Although she was upset about Natalie‘s arrival, she believed all she did was complained to her parents for a while, and that was it!Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Furthermore, she had nothing to do with the skydiving accident for she didn‘t sabotage the parachute! After struggling for a while, Natalie broke free from Lila‘s grip again. Seeing that Lila was way too emotional and unreasonable at the moment, Natalie didn‘t want to speak to her anymore.

“I don‘t want to talk to you right now until you calm down. I have to get to work.”

After that, she turned around and made her way down the stairs. Lila felt frustrated that she couldn‘t vent her anger right then.

What was with Natalie‘s attitude anyway?

She acted all condescending, which went on to make Lila appear like a lunatic who was trying to stir trouble out of nothing. Lila stood completely still and proceeded to stare at Natalie‘s receding back. She was so angry that she shook from head to toe.

When she saw a car coming over down the road, she walked forward and pushed Natalie hard on her back in the direction of the vehicle.

“Go to hell, you bitch!”

Caught off guard by the push, Natalie fell down the stairs. The steps happened to be a little high and there were no handrails on both sides. Just when she was about to bump into the car, a tall figure grabbed her in time. The man stood against the dazzling sunlight and his arm wrapped around her mit shoulder, protecting her.

After a sharp screeching and a woman’s scream of absolute horror, everything went back to silence. Lila had no idea what had happened. Just as she was pushing Natalie in front of the vehicle, she had covered her eyes with her hands and her heart was about to leap out of her chest. Lila thought it was simply some sort of harmless mistake. She only pushed Natalie because anger clouded her judgment and she had lost control of herself just now. Natalie wouldn’t really blame her, right? Lila peeled her hands from her eyes in fear and looked at the road.

The timidity in her eyes was dashed and there was only shock left behind. Lila could make out two figures on the ground. Natalie was curled up in Sebastian’s arms. She was shaking from head to toe out of fear and was sobbing. Sebastian was bending forward with blood splattered on his pants, dripping down from his clothes to the ground. Novel Requests He got close to Natalie’s ear and told her words of comfort in a soft voice. Lila couldn’t hear clearly what the words he was saying to Natalie, but she could see how gentle he was treating her. Seeing that Natalie was safe, Lila turned around and was about to flee the scene.“Stop right there!”

Suddenly, she heard a stern voice call out. She grew frightened as she swallowed a mouthful of saliva and turned around in fear.

“What’s up?” Sebastian studied Lila from where he was. “If you dare to take one more step, don‘t blame me if I make your life miserable.”

Lila was startled to hear that. .

Sebastian didn’t spend the previous night in the White residence, and he felt lucky that he had come early today to wait Natalie outside her home. Just now, when he saw the car heading in Natalie’s direction, he immediately ran over and held her in his arms.

They rolled on the ground and escaped the car by mere inches. Because the car was driving on the road of a residential area, its speed happened to be not very fast. It braked and stopped in time. Still, the wheel grazed Sebastian’s leg, which caused him to bleed.

Feeling shocked, Natalie stayed in Sebastian’s arms for a long time before she finally came to her senses. Her heart was pounding wildly in her chest and she was sweating all over. Tears welled up in her eyes when she saw the man who had come to her rescue. She touched Sebastian’s cheek and looked down at his leg subconsciously. The ground at their feet was covered with his blood.

“You’re hurt, Sebastian. Let me check it out!”

After having said that, she hurried to roll up Sebastian’s pants to check his wounds. Sebastian stopped her. He lifted his hand and caressed her long hair. A smile popped up on his face right then.

“I’m fine.” He stared into Natalie’s eyes and said in a doting voice, “What are you doing holding back your tears? You can cry now.”

After staring into his eyes for a long while, Natalie suddenly threw herself into his arms as tears streamed down her face. She had originally wanted to pretend to act strong, but everything was so horrible that she was still in a relative state of shock.

Sebastian saw through her at a glance and encouraged her to let out her emotions, lest she’s seriously traumatized.

“Everything’s all right. I’m here now.” Natalie had already forgotten that she had been angry with Sebastian. She kept right on crying in his arms.Just now, he had rushed over to save her without any hesitation on his part. When he rolled away with her to dodge the wheels of the car, he shielded her with his own flesh, completely putting aside his own safety.

“How could you be so silly? You put yourself in a lot of danger just now!” Natalie complained in a whisper. Sebastian kissed her hair lovingly and smiled.

“Do you actually expect me to watch you get hurt and do nothing? Sorry, but I just can’t do that.”

Sebastian glanced at his injured leg. His face showed no sign of being fazed, but in reality, he was gritting his teeth from the pain.

When he rushed over here, he didn‘t think his actions through. His knee got hurt when it got scratched on the bumpy asphalt road. The rough rocks must‘ve been the ones to injure his leg.

And then, his leg was also grazed by the wheel. Natalie felt so sorry for Sebastian, and all her attention was now focused on him.

Just seeing her tear–streaked face made Sebastian feel bad for her.

“You‘ve finally stopped ignoring me,” he said.

Natalie had been giving him the cold shoulder for days. And when he finally had the chance to talk to her, he felt like there was a lump in his throat. After wiping her tears away, Natalie held him even tighter.
