Chapter 36 Catching Feelings
Finished
His sharp gaze bore down on her from above. “She’s your biological sister, and you believed the rumors? Things have already come to this, and you’re still assuming?
Jocelyn, I always thought you were virtuous and outstanding, smart and kind. Looks like I was wrong.”
He left those words behind and walked away cold and noble.
Jocelyn sat there stunned on the bed. She had just mentioned Rebecca twice, and Nathan had flown into such a rage!
Rebecca–on top of that, she herself was the one who was injured right now, and Rebecca was just the woman she had painted as someone who’d been ridden by thousands and slept with tens of thousands, so why wasn’t he disgusted with her?
Nathan got into the car, veins bulging from his large hand gripping the steering wheel.
Damn it! He had lost control of his emotions again just now because of Rebecca! What exactly was it about her that was different
Whatever the difference was, deciding to keep his distance was the right choice.
Because he, Nathan, did not need to have his emotions manipulated by a woman.
Rebecca returned to the villa. Over the next few days, she devoted herself fully to taking care of Marcus, guiding him to stay cheerful and optimistic.
As for Nathan, aside from occasionally bumping into him when he came home at night, they had no other interaction. And even then, it was just a simple greeting–she’d head home right after.
Rebecca figured it must be because he felt bad for her sister after seeing she’d been hurt, and knowing the truth about their marriage, was deliberately keeping his distance from her. Or maybe, as a big shot, his mood was like the weather–gentle when he wanted, cold when he pleased. Or perhaps, he really did believe the person in the video was her, and deep down Was repulsed
Whatever the reason, the way things were now was for the best. At least she didn’t have to deal with Jocelyn slapping her, or flirtatious moments that left everyone uncomfortable.
That day, just as Rebecca finished preparing dinner, she received a voice message from Natasha.
“Rebecca, there’s a singles party tonight. That handsome man I’ve been eyeing is gonna be there! Come help me out! I’m going to win him over!”
Rebecca naturally hoped Natasha could find love and agreed. “Alright, I’ll be there.”
Right after sending the voice message, she heard the sound of a car pulling in. She looked over at Marcus. “Marcus, I’ll be going home to be with my siblings, okay? Be good tonight, remember to talk to Daddy more. Tomorrow morning I’ll bring
you a new toy
Marcus probably already knew Rebecca would visit every day. He had developed a sense of security, and he nodded. “Take: me to the amusement park tomorrow”
Ided.
“Alright, pinky swear” Rebecca agreed without hesitation
Nathan and Jocelyn entered the villa side by side. When they saw Rebecca getting along so well with Marcus, Nathan’s face remained cold, his demeanor distant and untouchable.
He had been like this for the past few days.
Rebecca was used to it. She stood up and curved her lips into a slight smile ‘Nathan, Jocelyn, you’re back. I’ll head home now. Goodbye

If Rebecca really didn’t like Nathan, then being with Mr. Sebastian wouldn’t be a bad idea, right?
Yest Gentle and handsome guys were exactly Rebecca’s type. This had potential!
Natasha squinted with a grin and, when she walked by Rebecca, deliberately bumped into her.
“Ah.” Caucht off guard. Rebecca fell forward straight into Sebastian’s lap on the sofa.
Finished
It happened so suddenly that Sebastian instinctively raised his arm and caught Rebecca’s delicate body. Under his palm. everything felt unusually soft. Her pleasant scent filled his nose, and something stirred inside him. His voice turned hoarse.
“Are you hurt
Rebecca was incredibly embarrassed. Falling into a man’s arms like that… it felt like she was throwing herself at him!
Her cheeks turned bright red as she quickly straightened up. “No. I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Sebastian remained a perfect gentleman. “It’s fine.”
Just two calm words–no emotion on the surface. But as he looked at his now–empty arms. his eyes darkened.
Where ther? She had only accidentally fallen–but he actually felt something? Wanted to keep holding her?
And she was still a friend’s wife
