The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 51

“Okay. What do you want to do?”

Sebastian pressed his lips against her bare neck then finally pulled away. With a gentle smile, he winked and said, “Figure it out yourself. I know you’re tired. Go to bed.”

Then he turned around and went back to his room to get changed.

The next day, after work, Natalie went to a shopping mall nearby.

It was on the most bustling commercial street in the city. Some kind of a fun activity was going on in the shopping mall. Many children were performing on the stage as people cheered and clapped for them.

When Natalie entered the mall, she was almost knocked down by the crowd. Suddenly, a strong hand gripped her arm and pulled her back.

Natalie turned around and saw Christopher smiling at her. He was wearing a denim blue shirt and matching jeans. “Be careful. Otherwise, they might drag you to the stage to perform.”

“Thank you, Chris.” Natalie smiled sheepishly as she smoothed her bangs. “Why are you here?”

“I went to the grocery store nearby and bought some daily necessities.” Christopher lifted his bags and waved them at her. “What about you?” he asked, arching an eyebrow.

“Well, I came to pick up a gift for my husband.” Natalie looked away as a blush flamed her cheeks.

The smile on Christopher’s face vanished in an instant. His heart sank with dejection. He quickly forced a smile, trying to look normal. “Why didn’t you bring your husband with you? Do you need my advice?”

Christopher seldom got the chance to be with Natalie alone. Therefore, he wanted to stay with her, even though it meant he had to help her pick a gift for her husband.

Afraid that Sebastian might not like her choice of gift, Natalie thought it might be a good idea to get a man’s opinion. After a moment’s thought, she nodded. “Okay. Thank you, Chris.”

The two strolled into an opulent leather product store.

Glancing around, Christopher picked up a reddish-brown leather wallet and handed it to Natalie. “The wallets here are good. What do you think?”

“Yes, I love the color.” Natalie’s eyes lit up. “You have good taste, Chris.”

Christopher smiled bitterly.

The two of them were busy examining the wallet, so they didn’t see Elaine staring at them through the glass door.

Elaine had just come out of a clothing store opposite the leather shop. The blood on her face drained when she saw Natalie and Christopher interacting with such intimacy.
