Chapter 31
After all, Natalie didn’t know what would happen to her and Sebastian in the end.
Sebastian’s body froze. He narrowed his eyes and examined her. “Haven’t you had sex with your ex- boyfriends?”
Natalie clutched the cushion tightly and shook her head subconsciously. Then she realized something was off.
She was here as Cassie. Sebastian must have heard that Cassie jumped from one relationship to another. How could Cassie still be a virgin?
Natalie panicked. Staying with him seemed too dangerous.
“Well, I have a deadline coming. I should submit my designs as soon as possible. Let go of me. I need to go back to my room.” Natalie pushed Sebastian away. Her body was hot as if she were having a fever.
Sebastian, too, was hot. The smell of his sweat mingled with the faint minty fragrance made her blush. “At least let me hug you a little longer. I won’t force you,” Sebastian said in a grumpy voice. He frowned unhappily and wrapped his arms around Natalie. He wondered why Natalie wanted to work late at night. ‘Is her client that important?’ Although he was the client, it didn’t make him feel any good. The tightness of his grip made Natalie uncomfortable. She felt a surge of heat travel southward.
As soon as Natalie pressed her lips against his, Sebastian felt a surge of frenzied passion. He picked her up in his arms and put her on the sofa. He wrapped his arms around her and pecked on her lips. “You’re too naive.” He smiled. Natalie was startled. The man pressed her against the sofa and deepened the kiss, swallowing her
screams. The room was silent, except for the ticking of the clock and rustling of clothes. “En… enough… Sebastian!” Natalie grasped Sebastian’s shirt and looked away, intending to escape.
She didn’t expect a small peck to turn into something this wild and passionate. His tongue explored her mouth with aggression as if he was going to devour her.
Sebastian pressed his forehead against Natalie’s and stared into her eyes, gleaming with inexplicable emotions. He cupped the back of her neck with his palm and gently nipped her bottom lip.
Then, he grasped her pert bum and pressed it against his hardness. His body had turned hot and stiff.
All of a sudden, Natalie’s eyes sprang up. She quickly pushed him away, gasping for breath. “No, Sebastian!” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
However, Sebastian was not ready to let go of her. He rested his head on her shoulder and bit her collarbone, peppering soft kisses on her neck. Noticing that Natalie was trembling under him, he pressed his mouth against her ear. “Don’t you want it?” he whispered, his hot breath blowing against her skin. “Or is there any other reason? Are you afraid I won’t be nice to you if we become a real couple?”
Natalie’s mind was a mess. The man’s kisses drove her crazy. If this continued, they might end up having sex.
Before things went out of control, she quickly pulled back and turned her head. “No… Sebastian. I really can’t! Please…”
“Why not? Tell me the reason.” Sebastian asked, his voice thick with lust. He looked up at her, searching for answers. His long legs were casually slung around Natalie, trapping her in place.
“I’m not ready yet.” She picked up a pillow and covered her flushed face to hide her embarrassment.
Moreover, she had married Sebastian in place of Cassie. She wasn’t supposed to get married to him in the first place. If she and Sebastian had sex and became a real couple, she wouldn’t be able to forgive herself for deceiving him.
After all, Natalie didn’t know what would happen to her and Sebastian in the end.
Sebastian’s body froze. He narrowed his eyes and examined her. “Haven’t you had sex with your ex- boyfriends?”

He wondered why Natalie wanted to work late at night. ‘Is her client that important?’ Although he was the client, it didn’t make him feel any good. The tightness of his grip made Natalie uncomfortable. She felt a surge of heat travel southward. She pushed Sebastian away and hurriedly smoothed her dress. “No. I really have to work now.”
Seeing her running back to her room in a fit of panic, Sebastian turned his head and leaned back on the sofa, sighing helplessly.
In the room, Natalie held her pencil for nearly an hour but didn’t know where to begin.
She couldn’t calm down as she couldn’t stop replaying her hot kiss with Sebastian in her mind. He was eager to make love to her.
‘Oh stop it, Natalie!’ She scolded herself silently. She squeezed her eyes shut and blushed again.
She couldn’t concentrate on the design, so she turned on the laptop to contact the wealthy client. She named him “Rich Party A”.
“Sir, I had a really bad stomachache today and had to go to the hospital. Could you extend my deadline by a day?”
She sent the message along with a crying emoji.
Rich Party A responded immediately: “You don’t need to work on the design anymore.”
Thinking the client was unhappy, Natalie quickly sent a message. “I’ll finish the design. I promise. I’ve brought my laptop to the hospital. You don’t have to give me an extra day. I’ll finish it today, I promise.”
Rich Party A replied, “I don’t need it for the time being. Don’t worry. You’ll still get the payment.”
Natalie clapped her hands excitedly as her heart swelled with gratitude. She quickly typed, “I’m grateful and moved. You’re the best client in the world!”
Sebastian turned off his phone and walked into the bathroom, holding his clothes.
A small smile stretched across his lips as he recalled what happened in the living room.
It was Friday, and the weather was relatively hotter and humid. It felt as if the entire city was set ablaze. Everyone was sweating profusely, and the scent of sunscreen wafted in the air.
After work, Natalie took the bus back home. She gazed out the window, listening to music and watching the scenes whizzing past. Suddenly, her ringtone blared, interrupting the music.
She looked at the phone: It was a call from the hospital. Her heart tightened.
“Hello, Miss Quinn. We are speaking from the municipal hospital. Hannah Stone is on the top of the waiting list for liver transplantation now. Please arrange the expenses for the operation as soon as possible. We can perform the surgery as soon as we find a suitable liver for her.”
It was the best news she had heard in a long time. Natalie wanted to scream with joy.
“Okay, okay. Thank you. Thank you so much!” Natalie hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.
