The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 62

Sebastian felt dejected. How could she deprive him of the right to kiss her?

He had just leaned on Natalie’s shoulder but didn’t do anything to offend her.

They had made out countless times in the past, and she had never resisted it. ‘What’s with the sudden change in her attitude?’

He couldn’t figure out what was on her mind.

Natalie came out of her room during dinner. A faint smile graced her face, but it was not as genuine as a few days ago.

Sebastian felt upset and confused. The growing distance made him uncomfortable.

Later that night, he called Garrett. The phone rang several times before it got connected.

“I’m busy right now. What’s the matter? Can’t you check the time before calling me?” Garrett grunted in frustration. He could hear the wind from the other end of the line and assumed Sebastian was standing on the balcony.

“I have something to ask you. After that, you can carry on with whatever you’re busy doing.” Sebastian was standing on the balcony with a bottle of beer. His dark eyes stared into the distance.

The apartment was near the beach. The salty air filled his nostrils. It was refreshing, yet the confusion seemed to gnaw his heart.

“Fine. Go ahead. You just got married, and it’s making all of us restless. Gosh, it’s annoying.” Garrett scratched his hair as his desire to have sex died in an instant. He patted the woman on his bed and listened to what Sebastian had to say.

After listening to the entire story, Garrett burst out laughing.

“Congratulations! Your wife cares about you too.”

The frown on Sebastian’s face deepened. He became even more confused.

“I don’t quite get it. Explain what you mean clearly.” He took a sip of the beer and stared blankly at the sea of lights in a distance.

Garrett shook his head and narrowed his eyes. “I think you deserve it. You are married, but you still behave like a bachelor. It’s appalling that you don’t even understand a woman’s behavior. Listen to me. Your wife just told you that some men are making advances at her. A normal husband would get jealous and ask questions about these men, but you just waved it off. You didn’t show care. What do you expect her to think? She’s unhappy because of your nonchalance. She thinks you don’t care about her. Doesn’t her unhappiness show that she cares about you and how you feel about her? Dude, you need to learn how to interpret the signals women give!”

Everything dawned on Sebastian at this moment. He leaned against the railing and smiled brightly. His side profile was so handsome.

It gladdened his heart to know that this was why she was displeased.

“I just hope that she can ask Brandon for help when necessary. That means they have to become close first. What should I do now?”

After pondering for a while, Garrett replied, “Well, you can’t possibly get jealous of yourself. In the end, you would at least prove to your wife that you genuinely love her. I’m sure she would be happy when her feelings are reciprocated. I’m not supposed to be teaching you this. Your relationship with her is hopeless if you can’t do it without any help. Man up!”

In a low voice, he continued, “You have turned me into your marriage counselor. I’m helping you build your marriage for free, but you will reap all the benefits in the end.”

Garrett knew Sebastian well. He saw him as an opportunist right from their high school days.

Sebastian chuckled and waved his hand playfully. “What are friends for? Anyway, I will give it a try.”
