Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother novel Chapter 196

Chapter 196: Sinful Thoughts

Justin returned home a little late, where he rang the bell as usual despite knowing the lock password of the door.

Soon the door was unlocked and a woman wearing an apron, holding a spatula in one hand came into his sight.

"You know the door lock password, but you still disturb me in my work by making me come to open the door," she said, in a little complaining tone and turned to go back to the kitchen.

"And I want to keep disturbing you like this all my life," Justin countered smoothly and entered the home.

She heard him and clearly understood what he meant but didn’t respond.

After putting away his bag and shoes, Justin washed his hands and headed to the kitchen to see what Natalie was up to. He noticed she was preparing several of his favorite dishes.

"Is the feast being prepared for me?" he asked, looking through all the dishes being prepared.

"You could say that," Natalie replied, focused on her cooking.

"Is it a way of thanking me for helping you with your plan?" Justin asked as he stood behind her, leaned a little down, closer to her ear, "Hmm?"

Natalie flinched slightly at the warmth of his breath that bushed her cold skin, but kept her composure. "If it weren’t for you, things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly. So I thought...."

"So I was right. This is a thank-you feast," he murmured, staying close, clearly making her heart race.

"Maybe," she replied softly, doing her best to resist the effect of his closeness.

"You don’t need to thank me for anything," he whispered, brushing his lips against her flushed earlobe, "but if you really want to, there are... better ways you know, the ways that I might find more satisfying." _{freeweɓnovel.cѳm}

Natalie’s breath hitched, fully aware of his intentions. He was trying to seduce her.

"Justin..." she murmured, almost pleading.

"Hmm?"

"Go freshen up. I’m hungry and want to eat early."

Hearing her response, Justin sighed and stepped back. "A man who lets his woman go hungry is no good. I definitely don’t want to be that man," he said, leaving the kitchen.

Natalie let out a small sigh of relief and returned to her cooking.

"I’d appreciate it if you wore clothes instead of wandering around naked," she said, trying to calm her nerves at the sudden surprise. ’Is he trying to seduce me for real? Is he trying to say it’s time for us to move forward? But I am not ready yet.’
