Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 503

Sean asked with a smile, "Sir, why are you so interested in my friends?"

Sebastian scoffed, "Because I know you don't have many."

Sean fell silent.

That one stung.

He had spent all these years helping Sebastian build the company, leaving no time to even find a girlfriend.

Sean didn't say another word.

And Sebastian didn't ask again.

Thinking of Natalie's car accident, he said irritably, "Go and check if Natalie really was in a car crash."

Sean was speechless. Who would joke about a car accident? "Sir, you told me not to mention Ms. Sanders in front of you, so I didn't say that the person I was going to visit was her."

"She was hit by Maxwell's car just as she got off the highway. It seemed intentional. If Ms. Sanders hadn't reacted quickly, she'd be dead by now."

Sebastian frowned, slightly surprised. "She wasn't lying. She really was in an accident."

Sean remained silent.

A thick wave of guilt washed over Sebastian. If he hadn't kicked her out of the car, she wouldn't have been hurt.

But her words had infuriated him. She was still his wife, how dare she go looking for other men?

"Go to the hospital," he growled.

Sean hesitated. He wanted to say that Ms. Sanders probably didn't want to see him.

But he didn't dare.

Hospital.

Natalie was on her last IV drip.

Herbert had brought them both a lavish dinner.

He smiled and said, "Natalie, I might as well eat here with you. You're usually so busy, it's hard to even ask you out for a meal."

He then looked at Natalie, teasing her, "Natalie, if the Scott family knew how talented you are, do you think they'd regret kicking you out?"

Natalie smiled serenely. "Do you think people who wish you were dead would feel regret?"

"Tsk, you brat. Didn't you bring that on yourself? If you hadn't fallen head over heels for Sebastian, who could have hurt you?"

Herbert pushed a bowl of lobster bisque in front of her.

Natalie gave a bitter smile. "Well, I've seen the light now, haven't I? I don't love him anymore. Not in this lifetime."

"From now on, I'll just focus on my career."

"That's more like it. With your talent and knowledge, money practically throws itself at you. Wasting three years on a scumbag was just not worth it."

"Yes, yes, you're right about everything."

Natalie chuckled in exasperation.

Ian's gaze dimmed. She had a man she liked? Was it the man who picked her up from the hospital that night?
