Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 789

Sebastian was afraid she would run off. He knew she was only tolerating him because she was considerate of his grandparents' feelings.

Wayne was a capable man. He might not be able to solve the pressure Sebastian was applying immediately, but he would eventually.

Wayne's ventures overseas were more successful than his own.

And this time, Sebastian admitted to himself, he had done it on purpose. He just didn't want Natalie to leave him.

He lowered his head and ate his dumplings. After finishing, he offered Natalie a black card.

Natalie looked at him, surprised. "What's this card for?"

"Living expenses," Sebastian said.

Natalie raised an eyebrow. Had he finally gotten a clue? Not that she needed it. Perhaps a real wife could accept it without a second thought, but she didn't want it. "No, thanks. I can afford my own living expenses. Besides, if Joanna found out this card was in my hands, she'd probably throw a fit."

What did being the legal wife matter?

Sebastian's favoritism had always been reserved for Joanna.

Sebastian frowned at her. "Why bring her up? This has nothing to do with her."

"How does it not have anything to do with her? Don't you remember? Joanna once asked why you were buying me so many clothes, saying I was just a housewife who wouldn't have anywhere nice to wear them. After that, didn't you stop buying a single thing for your so-called wife?"

"You worship the ground she walks on. You should probably take this money and go buy her something nice."

The memory of past events made Natalie's anger flare.

She pushed Sebastian's hand away. Under his stunned gaze, she went upstairs to pack her things. She was going to see Zenobia and the baby.

She was taking the opportunity to get away for three days. Being around Sebastian was suffocating.

Now that she no longer loved him, she found everything about him irritating.

Sebastian watched her retreating back, his expression heavy. He thought that, at this rate, they might never be able to go back to how things were.

She finished packing her suitcase, went outside, and got into her car. She drove to a department store and bought a lot of baby clothes. When she went to the main checkout counter to pay, she unexpectedly ran into Wendy, who was also there to buy clothes for a baby.

Natalie's first thought was that they were for Joanna.

But Joanna had already terminated the pregnancy.

In any case, it didn't matter to her who Wendy was buying them for.

"Natalie, you..."

Wendy was surprised to see her buying infant clothes, and her eyes immediately darted to Natalie's stomach.

Natalie instantly understood what she was thinking.

She thought she was pregnant.

She let out a sarcastic laugh. "Relax, it's not for me. Remember when you arranged for me to marry Sebastian? Remember that high-and-mighty warning you gave me? You said Sebastian belonged to Joanna and that I shouldn't even dream of having his child. Well, rest assured, I will never get pregnant with his child again. You can save that hope for your precious Joanna, can't you?"
