The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

In the end, Sebastian had taken Garrett’s advice.

But now that he had to make an apology, he needed to show his sincerity. He would not do that in a perfunctory way.

“Oh, I see. Anyway, I’m starving. Let’s eat.” Natalie lowered her gaze, unable to meet his. She couldn’t bear to look at the thin scars on Sebastian’s face. It made her remember what had happened last night.

She picked up her chopsticks and began to eat the dumplings in her bowl slowly. A little while later, she put her bowl down, exposing three lone dumplings.

Sebastian raised his hand and took her bowl, pouring her leftover dumplings into his bowl. “We can’t let them go to waste.”

“Sorry, I really can’t eat another,” Natalie said softly, looking down guiltily.

After a pause, Sebastian smiled and asked gently, “What’s the matter? I was just making up some excuse to eat your leftover dumplings.”

“Look, I know I was wrong about the ring. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have doubted you. Don’t think too much. I trust you now.” Sebastian brought up what had happened the other day, scratching his head embarrassedly.

He really wasn’t used to this whole “apology” thing. He hadn’t needed to humble himself in years.
