Sebastian was sitting on the sofa beside her.

The dim light from the TV cast sharp shadows on his face, making his features look sharper.He was leaning comfortably against the sofa, sending messages on his phone.

“Why didn’t you wake me up?” Natalie rubbed her eyes.

A gray blanket slipped down from her shoulders.

“I thought you would wake up any time.” Sebastian smiled and handed a glass of warm milk to her.

“Drink this and go to your room.It would be more comfortable for you to sleep there.”.Natalie took the milk and drank it obediently.

The room fell silent again.

“By the way, thank you for helping me last night.Did your hand get hurt when you smashed the wine bottle?”

She had been busy worrying about Hannah that she almost forgot what happened in the Quinn family house.

Holding the glass, she studied Sebastian’s face.

His expression remained the same throughout.He put down his phone and took a sip of beer.

“It’s okay.We are husband and wife,”he said, his eyes still fixed on the TV.

“You don’t have to thank me.” Natalie pulled the blanket closer in her arms and looked at him.

The light from the TV brightened her face.

She drew circles on the rim of the glass, carefully choosing her words.

“Now that you know I wasn’t the one you had planned to marry, do you still want to be in a serious relationship with me as my husband?” Sebastian stopped drinking beer and turned his head.

His eyes narrowed as he looked at her.

“Why do you ask? Who else do you want to marry?” Natalie’s hair stood on end when she heard the threat in his tone.She looked away and shook her head.

“No.1 didn’t mean that.”

Sebastian was an excellent man, and she had no reason to stay away from him.
