Sebastian shot him a cold glare. “Just do it.”
Sean knew he had overstepped. “Yes, sir. I’ll get on it first thing tomorrow.”
Sebastian closed his eyes, thinking of what Luna had said. He grew even angrier. That woman had said Natalie was blind, that he didn't deserve her. An immense frustration washed over him as he tried to rest. No matter how he looked at it, he knew absolutely nothing about Natalie. She had just been a pawn, a piece he’d used to secure control of the company. But he hadn't forgotten the kindness she had shown him.
The more he thought, the more tangled his feelings became.
…
In the car, Natalie leaned against the window, watching the scenery blur past. “Luna, keep an eye on Sebastian,” she said quietly. “I showed my hand a little too much tonight. He’s going to start digging into my background. Don’t let him find out who I am.” She knew Nathan too well. If he discovered the colossal Ceryn Corp. was behind her, he would stop at nothing to take it for himself.
Luna’s eyes were sharp and clear. “Don’t worry, Miss. He won’t find anything.”
Natalie had complete faith in her. She trusted Luna and Keith Jones implicitly.
When she got home, her grandfather was already asleep, so she crept quietly upstairs.
“Natty, you’re back?” Queena called out, her voice muffled by a face mask.
Natalie nodded. “Yeah.” She was tired and just wanted to shower and sleep.
Queena could see her exhaustion. “Did your luck turn around tonight?” she asked with a smile.
