The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Some of them had already stolen glances at them “I'm sorry,” Cassie murmured with her head lowered. As an extremely proud woman, she found it hard to apologize to Natalie But she had to do so because she wanted to keep Natalie here.

“Did someone say something? Oh! | was you.Are you talking to me or yourself?” Natalie raised her eyebrows and stared at her to indicate that she didn’t hear her.She obviously wasn't going to let things slide easily.

“Don’t push it, Natalie!” Cassie flared up.

She badly wished she could tear the arrogant woman in front of her into pieces.

To restrain herself, she clenched her fists until her fingers sunk into her palm Natalie shrugged and opened her hands to feign indifference.

She uttered, “Anyway, it’s up to you. You don't have to force yourself to apologize if you don't want to.Since you think | am pushing you, | had better leave now.” She grabbed her handbag and stood up, as if she really wanted to leave.

“Wait a minute, Natalie. What's the rush? You said you didn’t hear me, so | would repeat my apology.” Cassie had to compromise.

When she saw that her adoptive sister got even more arrogant, she clenched her fists tighter. Her knuckles turned red.

Taking her seat once again, Natalie graciously gestured for her to continue.

“Ahem... Natalie, | have come to realize that we were wrong for hurting you.We shouldn't have done all those things.I'm sorry.Can you forgive me and my mom? Remember that we are family no matter what.” With a displeased sniff, Natalie abruptly turned to look out of the window and said, “Your words are so empty.! don’t feel your sincerity at all. Tell me, do you seriously think that those empty words of yours would make up for the years of physical and emotional torture that | suffered at the hands of you and your parents?” “What's your deal, Natalie? | just said that I'm sorry.What else do you want?” Cassie spat angrily.

“I want a sincere apology, not a perfunctory one!” Natalie responded coldly and her eyes were full of contempt.

Cassie knew that her apology didn't come from her heart.

Now that Natalie had seen through her, she bit her lower lip and forced herself to apologize again.

“I'm sorry, sister.No amount of apology would make up for what we did to you.But | will continue to apologize because | have realized my mistakes...” The apology went on for a long time.

It wasn't until Cassie”s lips were about to go numb that Natalie finally nodded in satisfaction. She folded her arms and uttered with a smile, “It's a good thing that you have realized your mistakes and turned a new leaf.Honestly, I'm happy to see that you are a changed woman.” Stupid bitch! Of course, you are happy.Just wait and see.

‘You will grovel at my feet soon! Cassie cursed Natalie a thousand times in her mind.

Plastering a fake smile, she looked at the cup of coffee on the table and said, “Thanks for forgiving me, Natalie.Let’s drink up the coffee to celebrate our reconciliation.” Natalie didn’t refuse.She flashed her a smile and picked up the cup of coffee.

Before she put it to her lips, she glanced at the neon streetlights in the distance.

“Look, is that your dad? | thought you said he has been busy with work.How come he’s on the street?” “Yes, he left in the afternoon.How could he be here?” Cassie was startled.

Her attention shifted and she craned her neck to look out of the window, terrified.

At this moment, Natalie swiftly exchanged the cups of coffee.

The cups looked exactly the same, so Cassie wouldn't notice a thing Cassie looked out of the window for a few seconds.

However, she saw nothing but darkness and the heavy traffic on the road.

“I don't see him anywhere.Are you sure he’s the one you saw?” She turned around and asked.

After taking a sip of coffee, Natalie responded calmly, “Maybe | mistook someone else for him. The man | saw was just like George.He was also dressed the same way.But he might not be your father. probably made a mistake because of the dim light.” A wicked glint flashed in Cassie's eyes when she saw that Natalie

was drinking her coffee.

Smiling brightly, she raised her cup for a cheer and said, “Let's drink up since we have made up.” A clinking sound rang out as the cups collided.

“Okay. Cheers to reconciliation.” Natalie was sneering on the inside, but she clinked cups with her. She smiled at Cassie with clear eyes, as if she was oblivious to everything, Cassie fixed her eyes on her adoptive sister and took a few sips of her coffee.

Several ideas on what she would do next swirled in her conniving mind.

“Oh, you are almost done drinking your coffee.” When she saw that Natalie had almost finished up her cup of coffee without suspecting anything, her smile became brighter.

“Well, | can't help it. | like the coffee here. No other cafe makes such a perfect cup of coffee.” She supported her jaw with one hand, and circled her index finger on the brim of the cup while looking into the night through the window.

At this moment, a tall and familiar figure wearing a windbreaker quietly passed by the window and blended into the dim street.

This figure had a black cap on. Although his face was covered, his

tall figure was eye-catching under the streetlights.

Natalie was relieved to see him. That tall figure was Sebastian.

Sebastian took glances at the two women who were sitting beside one of the windows of the cafe. He stood beside the newsstand across the street. Afterward, he took out today’s newspaper and leafed through it.

“What did you see, Natalie? Why are you smiling from ear to ear all of a sudden?” Cassie tapped the table with her fingers to call Natalie's attention. She was waiting for the drug to begin to take effect on her. The tap on the table made Natalie come to her senses at once. She pursed her lips to hide her joy and decided to change the topic.

Waving her hand, she said, “It's nothing. I've accepted your apology and was done with the coffee. Do you have anything else to say to me?” “You want to leave now? Not so fast, bitch. | finally got you to drink the coffee. How can | let you leave just like that? You have to pass out in my presence. And then, | will take my revenge!’ Cassie thought devilishly. “Oh, Natalie. | haven't seen you for a long

time. | want to catch up with you. We can talk just like all sisters do.” Cassie called her name dearly as if they were really close.

She even brushed the back of Natalie's hand.

The drug was supposed to take effect in a few minutes. Now, she was only stailing time. The fake smile on Natalie's face vanished at this time. Instead of replying, she folded her arms over her chest and stared straight at her foster sister.

“Gosh! Where did her smile go? Why is she staring at me like that?” Cassie felt uncomfortable under Natalie's stare. She swallowed hard and averted her gaze without moving an inch.
