Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother novel Chapter 366

Chapter 366: The Truth That Shocked Everyone

The entire palace was dead silent after all the crowd was dispersed. All the invited guests had left after the Queen bid them farewell personally.

In the Queen’s residence, the old woman was sitting in the drawing room, looking all exhausted after all the ordeal. Natalie didn’t return home and decided to stay by the Queen’s side to take care of her. She understood why James had told her to stay and take care of things.

At this moment, she had no time to deal with her own shock.

The servants brought calming tea and the medicines for the Queen. Once she looked fine, Natalie asked, "Grandma, are you feeling better now?"

The Queen inhaled deeply and looked at Natalie. "Were you aware James Harper is your father?"

Natalie shook her head as she thought, I was as shocked as you.

The Queen sighed. "I don’t know what to do. All that happened so suddenly. I don’t know what Carmen thinks about it and if she is alright with what happened."

"Grandma, Caryn Shaw is a tough woman. She should be the last person any of us should ever worry about," Natalie said. "And, about James Harper, though I don’t know much, I can assure you she is fine with him."

The Queen could only hum and asked, "You call them by names."

"We are not close enough to act by the relationship they say we have," Natalie replied calmly.

"Things will get better soon and you will have your own parents and family now," the Queen said.

Natalie could only hum to the Queen’s genuine worry, but inside she thought, If it all happened a few years before, I would have jumped with happiness, but now, it doesn’t matter. All that matters is, I have him, Justin.

"Grandma, you should rest," Natalie said and helped her escort to her bedroom. As the Queen settled in her bed, she said, "Natalie, I am happy that at least you don’t call me by my name but acknowledge our relationship."

"I am happy to have a sweet grandmother like you as well," Natalie replied.

In the name of grandmother, all she had was Sephina Ford, who never treated her nicely just because she was not her blood.

The Queen smiled and said, "You should go and rest. One of the royal chambers has already been prepared for you, but you never stayed here."

Natalie wanted to return to the hotel, but at this moment she wished to act according to the Queen’s wishes to make her feel better. Her daughter was frisked away by a man while millions of people around the world were watching, so as a granddaughter, she could at least comfort her by staying here.

"Thank you, Grandma. I am heading to my room then," Natalie said as she left with a servant who guided her to her room.

At the same time, in another residence in the palace.

Howard, Garwin, and Charlotte were sitting silently, probably contemplating what to think now — whether they should be happy that the coronation didn’t succeed or sad that Caryn, their Princess Carmen, had someone like James Harper in her life.

At that, he was even Natalie’s father, which made it even worse, as now they had to think twice before trying to harm them.

"Why... Why is Natalie’s life so good?" Charlotte cried out. "She came here to claim my title of Princess, and now she has such a man as her father. Now, I can’t even think about marrying Justin Harper. She won’t let her brother marry me."
