“Natalie, must you always be so sarcastic?" Sebastian felt an impulse to strangle


    her.


    "I''ve told you, I''ve been good to Joanna, but I have never touched her."


    Natalie nced at him. Not only was he a scumbag, but he was also a coward. "Sebastian, you''re pathetic. A coward who can''t even admit what he''s done."


    He was infuriating her.


    Sebastian pressed his lips together. He thought of the photos and knew Natalie would never believe him.


    Natalie''s phone vibrated. She looked down and saw a message from Luna.


    [The Spencer family is having a banquet tonight. Mr. Spencer sent us an invitation and wants us to go.]


    Natalie typed back: [Okay. I''m free tonight.]


    Sebastian saw her message. So, she was getting close to Marshall.


    Natalie looked at Sean. “Sean, pull over up ahead. I''m getting out.”


    Sebastian refused. "Have lunch with me."


    Natalie shook her head. "I''ve already eaten. Mr. Monroe and I had lunch together.”


    “Besides, Mr. Griffith, I used to wait hours for you to eat with me. I''ve waited long enough. I don''t want to eat with you ever again."


    Sebastian''s lips thinned. He apologized in a low voice, "I''m sorry. I was wrong back then."


    Natalie froze, looking at Sebastian in shock. He actually apologized.


    Was this the same Sebastian she knew?


    She pursed her lips. This Sebastian couldn''t have been possessed, could he?


    That had to be it. The Sebastian she remembered, apart from those two years, was always cold and emotionless, a block of ice.


    But now, looking at his handsome face, she saw a hint of remorse.


    She was stunned. "Sebastian... you apologizing really doesn''t suit you. Don''t do it again. I don''t ept it. My only wish now is to be single and collect handsome men."


    Sean, ever curious, asked, "Ms. Sanders, what do you mean by ''collect handsome men''?"


    Natalie smiled knowingly. “You don''t know? It means surrounding myself with attractive young guys."


    Sean: "..."


    You really have some nerve.


    Sebastian''s anger red, and his hand shot out, closing around her neck.


    Natalie gasped, a sharp pain radiating from her throat. This damn Sebastian, what was wrong with him?


    Sebastian''s eyes were dark and bloodthirsty. “Natalie, are you that desperate for a man?"


    Pain brought tears to her eyes. "Sebastian... let... let me go."


    Seeing the tears welling in her eyes, Sebastian abruptly released his grip.


    Natalie coughed several times, gasping for fresh air.


    That bastard actuallyid a hand on her. Her neck throbbed.


    Sebastian seeing her distress, grew


    wants to hear his wife say things like that."


    Natalie no husband''


    Natalie instinctively retorted, "Husband? How nice of you to say that. You never acknowledged it before, so don''t try to disguste with it now.”


    "Heh..." A low, darkugh escaped Sebastian''s lips.


    Natalie watched him warily.


    Sebastiandooked at her with a meaningful glint in his eyes. “So, you''re saying that if I acknowledge you as my wife, youe back to me?"


    "In your dreams. You''re a madman, go find your crazy girlfriend.”


    "I have to say, you and Joanna are a perfect match. One is crazy, the other is deranged."


    Sebastian: "..."


    This woman managed to infuriate him every time she opened her mouth.


    Just then, Natalie''s phone rang. She picked it up and saw it wasn. She answered.


    "Hello?"


    "My grandma is okay now. Can I treat you to dinner tonight?"


    Natalie replied, “Ian, I can''t tonight. How about tomorrow night? I''m free then.”
