But a fluttering heart was one thing; she didn''t dare love Sebastian again.


    Sebastian changed tactics. "Fine. It''ste, I''ll take you home. It''s hard to get a cab around here."


    Natalie nced around. It was indeed difficult to hail a cab, but she had already called for a car, and it would arrive in a few minutes.


    "No need, I''ve called a car. I can wait. You should go back and take care of Joanna.


    I pped her, she must be feeling very wronged right now."


    Even Sebastian''s patience was wearing thin.


    Natalie was harder to please than Joanna. A new handbag could cate Joanna, but Natalie...


    It suddenly urred to Sebastian that he had never really bought Natalie anything. Her material desires were always low, and she never asked him for anything. She had taken care of him for two years without a singleint.


    At first, he thought he had misjudged her, that she was full of malicious schemes.


    But Natalie had never once schemed against him.


    He had been blinded by Joanna, partly due to his favoritism towards her. These facts were real, and he couldn''t erase them.


    Now, she was living afortable life, had her own career, and even her style of dress hadpletely changed. It was as if she had grown up overnight.


    But he didn''t know that Natalie had only grown up after dying once.


    Soon, the car Natalie had called arrived. She opened the door and got in. Sebastian told her to be careful on the way.


    Natalie ignored him. Bted concern was something no one needed.


    Natalie didn''t dare to be magnanimous. Sebastian''s thoughts ran as deep as the ocean.


    He could be feigningpliance with her while secretly doting on Joanna. Sebastian was perfectly capable of such a thing.


    And Joanna''s resources had changed in this life. She seemed anxious now, but Mr. Wilson''s ambitions were vast. The Spencer family was out of reach for now, Marshall hadn''t been tricked by them this time, and the Scott family''spany was in debt thanks to Wendy''s maneuvering.


    So, who was next?


    It would still be the Spencer family. Their overseas assets were the most tempting prize for Joanna.


    There were fewer rules abroad, and Joanna''s foreign capital far exceeded her domestic resources. Her greatest asset was that man.


    Natalie''s head ached. Luna had been investigating but still had no leads.


    "Sebastian, here''s the invitation. I''m getting married. You have toe." Jared hade to deliver the invitation to Sebastian.


    Sebastian had to attend his wedding for their future coborations to proceed.


    Sebastian took the invitation and looked at it, a strange feeling stirring inside him.


    So, this was a part of getting married.


    He and Natalie had nothing more than two marriage certificates.


    Thinking about it, Sebastian felt he had wronged Natalie deeply.


    He responded faintly, "Okay. I''ll be there."


    Jared smiled, genuinely happy. “Thank you, Sebastian. But Natalie is too arrogant.


    She was the one who came between you and Joanna...”


    "Jared, let me remind you of


    something had married Joanna, I


    would have lost my management rights All of your Scott brothers have


    right with my businesses


    dealings f were reced, you would all be kicked out too. You may want to live under a bridge, but I certainly don''t."


    Sebastian cut him off, then shot a cold nce at Joanna. Her familiar rtionship with his father was quite surprising to him. With an


    inscrutable look, he said, "Joanna, I had no idea you and my father were so close."
