Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 802

Sebastian nodded at Zenobia and Susan.

Then he turned to Natalie. "You're having dinner with your friends, why didn't you tell me? Since they're your friends, it should be our treat, as a couple."

Natalie, Zenobia, and Susan all stared with wide eyes.

For Zenobia and Susan, they had never seen this side of Sebastian. He wasn't the jerk they imagined; he was acting like the devoted, domineering CEO from a romance novel.

For Natalie, it was as if pigs were flying. This was the first time Sebastian had ever acknowledged them as a couple in public.

"What's wrong? Is that not okay?" Sebastian asked, finding her stunned expression somewhat adorable. Her lips were slightly parted, and he felt an urge to kiss her.

Natalie came to her senses, her hands tightening on the table. "Don't you avoid heavily seasoned food? Can you even eat this?"

Sebastian replied, "I can. But you'll have to get me some stomach medicine."

Food like this was hard for him to digest and could trigger his stomach problems.

Natalie thought he was being ridiculous. Why eat something when you know it will cause you pain?

Besides, couldn't he see that they didn't want him here?

"If you can't eat it, don't force yourself. Go eat something else. I didn't bring any stomach medicine with me."

Sebastian was persistent. "It's fine, there's a pharmacy downstairs."

Natalie fell silent.

Sebastian had Sean sit down as well, then gestured for a server to take their order.

Seeing his insistence, Natalie didn't say another word.

Sebastian had made the list of the wealthiest people this year, and his overwhelming fortune commanded a certain respect.

But once the barbecue arrived, Susan livened things up again.

"Oh my god, grilled beef! I haven't had this in forever! Natalie, the last time was with you. I've been practically starving myself for a year trying to lose weight."

Natalie smiled. "If you use the tea I gave you, the weight comes off quickly. After a big meal like this, just brew a cup when you get home. It helps with digestion and keeps your stomach from feeling heavy."

Both Susan and Zenobia had tried Natalie's custom-blended tea. Zenobia asked, "Natalie, have you ever thought about selling that tea blend commercially? It would be a godsend for everyone trying to lose weight."

Susan agreed that the effects were amazing.

Natalie just smiled and shook her head. "No, that wouldn't work. The ingredients are too rare and expensive. The price would be too high, so I'm not sure it would succeed."

She rejected the idea. Making the tea was a hassle. It was fine to make for herself and her friends, but she wasn't brave enough to try selling it. She didn't want the stress.

Sebastian was intrigued. "Natalie, what kind of tea is it?" he asked.
