The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Sebastian‘s eyes flashed dangerously. He tightened his grip around Charis‘s neck, which cut off Charis‘s access to oxygen
completely. Just when she thought she was going to die, Sebastian suddenly threw her to the ground and let her go.
“Ahem!” Writhing on the ground, Charis covered her neck with her hands and coughed violently. Regardless of her image,
Catherine squatted on the ground and patted her daughter on the back anxiously. She glared at Sebastian and roared, “Who do
you think you are? Why‘d you do that to Charis?” Sebastian removed the cuff links on his suit, rolled up his sleeves, and looked
down at the two Turner women with a sneer.
“Your daughter has tried to kill my wife on more than one occasion. I thought I went too easy on her just now.” Catherine glanced
at Luke in shock.
“What are you talking about? How could my daughter do such a thing?” Catherine had her own career and didn‘t bother too
much about her daughter‘s. She never had to worry about the capable Charis. All she knew was that Charis had left the Larson
Group a while ago. She had thought that this was a good thing, because now Charis could take over the family business.
Both Catherine and Luke knew that Charis liked Brandon, but they didn‘t know what she had done in order to get him.
“Brandon, I‘m warning you. Although Charis worked under you before, she doesn‘t have to listen to you anymore. I can
understand that there might be sproblems between you two, but that doesn‘t mean you can hurt my daughter!” Sebastian
sneered. He gathered the evidence on the table and looked down at the coughing Charis, “Since you‘re the daughter of the
Turner family, I can‘t hurt you in your own house. However, if you dare try to hurt my wife again, I will not let you go.”
Charis‘s face was full of resentment. She gritted her teeth and glared at Sebastian defiantly.
“I didn‘t do anything wrong. You can‘t blme for being a bit hot–headed!”
“Are you sure?” Sebastian raised his eyebrows and asked in a bone–chillingly cold voice. Looking into his eyes, Charis paused
for a few seconds and suddenly burst into tears.
“We‘ve worked together for years, Sebastian! Why don’t you have feelings for me? You fell in love with someone who cafter
me! Do you really think I‘m not as good as her?”
“Natalie would never do the things you have done,” Sebastian said, his voice void of emotion.
His indifference made Charis cry even harder.She had never cried like this in her entire life.

Since the moment she started working with Sebastian, she had never dared to show too much affection for him.She thought a
man as mature and put together as Sebastian would probably like a woman who was also as decisive and restrained.
“I wouldn‘t have done those things if Natalie never showed up.You leftno choice! Sebastian, do you really think you‘re
faultless?
I‘ve loved you all these years yet you turned a blind eye to it! You could‘ve just toldthat you had no feelings for me, but you
always keptguessing...” Her voice broke as she spoke.
Charis murmured softly, “How could I get you back if I just sat there and did nothing?”
“I thought not showing you any affection in return was clear enough of a message.” Sebastian frowned.
“I used to admire you as a capable business partner, but now I have nothing but disgust for you.”
After saying that, Sebastian turned around to leave.He didn‘t want to have anything to do with this despicable woman anymore.
When he passed by Luke and Catherine, he shot them a cold glance and warned, “Keep your daughter in line, or else she might
end up in a miserable position.”
Then he left.
Catherine had understood what was going on.
Heaving a long sigh, she helped up the crying Charis and shook her head.
“You’ve always been a smart girl, Charis.How could your judgment get so muddy this time? And why are you so hung up on that
man? There are plenty of other fish in the sea.”
Catherine first thought that the reason why Charis went to work in the Larson Group was that she liked Brandon.
However, as the Larson Group developed, she started to believe Charis chose to stay there because she saw potential in the
company, not because she liked Brandon.
As an experienced woman, Catherine knew that any woman who valued love more than her own career and even life would
cto no good end.

Charis burst into tears.She shook her head and cried, “He‘s the only man I‘ve ever loved.I won‘t be happy if I can‘t have him.And
if I can‘t have him, neither can anyone else!”
Catherine sighed and shook her head helplessly.
Words of reason would do no help.
Charis had always been a stubborn girl.She would stop at nothing if she had set her mind to it.
“If that‘s the way it‘s going to be, then you have to at least protect yourself.You know how powerful Brandon is.If he really wants
to hurt you, no one can stop him.I defended you earlier because I was afraid that he would hurt you.But if we really fought
against the Larson Group, both sides would suffer great losses.Your father and I have worked hard all our lives for the Turner
Group.Are you going to throw away our lives‘ work just because you love that man?”
Catherine sighed helplessly and handed her daughter a tissue.She tried to talk ssense into her daughter, hoping the latter
would see the light.
Charis still had a bright future ahead of her.It wasn‘t worth it to ruin her life over a man.
What‘s more, the way Brandon looked at her just now–his eyes were simply full of disgust.
It was the stupidest thing in the world to try to win the heart of a man who hated you.
Charis fell silent and wiped away her tears.
No one knew what she was thinking at that moment.
After confronting the Turners, Sebastian returned to Barnes.He reported to the police that Charis had pulled sstrings to get
Jeff out of jail, and had even sent them all the evidence to prove it.
But since there was no evidence tying Charis to all her other crimes, there was nothing Sebastian could do.
Because Charis had paid for Jeff‘s bail, the matter wasn‘t too serious.It didn‘t take much effort for the Turner family to get Charis
out of this mess.
When everything was settled, Luke spoke to Charis seriously.

“Don‘t go near Barnes again and just stay at home.”
He didn‘t want the company‘s interests to be affected because of his daughter‘s selfish acts.
Although he loved his daughter very much, he knew what was more important.
Charis‘s bare, haggard face was pale and tired.She leaned back against the sofa and waved her hand dismissively.
“I know.Now that Sebastian has figured it all out, I can‘t do anything anymore.”
Sebastian could make trouble for the Turner family with a snap of his fingers.
Charis knew that she had to be careful.
Luke nodded.
“It‘s good that you‘ve cto your senses.You‘re a Turner; you shouldn‘t degrade yourself for a man.”
Charis forced a smile but didn‘t say anything.
There was another, more important reason why she couldn‘t act rashly.
Now that Sebastian had found out about her vicious side, if she was caught again, he would definitely destroy not just the Turner
family, but her as well.
Seeing her so depressed, Luke stopped scolding her.He thought for a while and said, “Why not cto work for me? It‘s easy
for people to overthink things when they‘re idly.If you busy yourself with work, you might find a sense of fulfillment.Soon, you‘ll
forget all about this fiasco.”
