As soon as she walked out of her room, she saw Sebastian standing at the door. He slid a bank card into her bag and said, “This is my payment card. You can use it as you like.”

Natalie looked at him. Then, she took the card from her bag and placed it on the table. “No, thanks. You keep the card for yourself. We’re just a nominal couple that doesn’t get along well with each other. How can I use your money?”

Judging from her tone, it was obvious that her anger hadn’t subsided one bit.

Sebastian’s towering frame blocked her path. Sebastian picked up the card from the table and forcefully pressed it on Natalie’s palm. “Take it,” he said, closing her fingers against it.

Natalie was startled. “Why are you standing here, blocking my way? Won’t you let me go if I don’t take it?”

Looking at her cold face, Sebastian felt she was distant and aloof. He didn’t know what to do.

“I didn’t mean that.” He frowned.

“Such being the case, get out of my way. Or I will be late for work.” Natalie threw the card back to the table, pushed him away with her elbow, and walked out, closing the door behind her.

His face darkened as he slumped on the sofa. Pleasing a woman didn’t seem as simple as Garrett had claimed it to be. Therefore, he called the man right away.

“She refused my money. Think of another solution for me.”

There was a woman nestled in Garrett’s arms. He squinted sleepily and spoke in a voice that didn’t sound completely sober. “You can’t do this to me. It’s seven o’clock in the morning. Even servants should have time to rest.”

“I’m not joking. Hurry up and find a way to help me. I can’t sleep until this problem is solved.” As he spoke, Sebastian sullenly stared at the scenery framed by the window.
