Sebastian averted his gaze.

“I rented this car. It’s your first day at work. I wanted to pick you up in this car.”

“Renting a luxury car for even just one day must have been expensive. Sebastian, I know you did it out of kindness, but you don’t have to do this for me. We have to accept the reality and live our lives,”

Natalie stuttered.

She was not the biological daughter of the Quinn family — but a simple girl who was used to living in poverty.

The situation was embarrassing.

She had been working hard to save up money to pay for Hannah’s medical expenses and meet her daily needs.

Even though Sebastian didn’t spend her money, it still broke her heart to see him waste it on unnecessary luxuries.

On second thought, she realized it was perhaps difficult for Sebastian to change his habit because he was used to living a lavish life.She couldn’t push him too hard.

Natalie handed the wallet back to Sebastian.

“Forget it.” She grinned happily.

“Today is my first day at work.I should celebrate it.You better save the money for yourself.I think you would also need money.”

She had married Sebastian as Cassie’s substitute.

Natalie had already deceived him and felt it would be unreasonable to spend his money as well.

“Great!”

She stretched her body and sighed with contentment.

“I have never been in a luxurious Lamborghini before.”

Sebastian sat beside her and looked at his wallet. He remained silent all the way.

The woman was different than he had thought.

The next morning Natalie took a bus to the company.

The long commute had exhausted her.

She had to get up early to reach the company on time.
