Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother novel Chapter 371

Chapter 371: Julia’s Arrival

Julia arrived in the city. Instead of going to James’ home, she went to Justin’s home.

Justin had already told Natalie that Julia was aware of everything between them, so there was nothing for her to worry about.

As soon as Julia arrived, she hugged Natalie, who had come downstairs to welcome her.

"It’s so good to see you after so long," Julia said happily. "And I am so happy that, finally, my granddaughter is back with her real family."

Natalie offered her a gentle smile, while Julia looked at Justin. "You brat, you kept from me that you own NextEra Corp."

"Wasn’t it a good surprise?" he asked, not minding her anger.

"It was indeed good. If you were any poor man, I wouldn’t have let you have my granddaughter," Julia countered.

Natalie didn’t know what to say or how to react to their banter. In her mind, she thought, Just given how handsome he is, I would have kept him even if he was poor. I wouldn’t mind keeping beauty by my side.

Justin looked at her, his gaze scrutinizing her. Natalie immediately looked away, as if he could see the dirt in her mind—her expression like that of a thief being caught.

"You better take good care of my granddaughter," Julia warned him in a strict tone.

"I’m already doing it. You can ask her," Justin replied.

Julia looked back at Natalie and said, "If he bullies you, tell me. I will teach him a lesson for you."

"Yes, Grandma."

"I was going to come here earlier, but then all of you went to Belvorn again, so I had to delay...." Julia continued talking non-stop as the two women settled on the sofa in the drawing room.

Justin didn’t interrupt their conversation.

After a while, Julia asked them, "How are James and Caryn? Are they getting along well?"

Natalie hesitated a little before speaking. "We haven’t met them since they came back from Belvorn."

Julia was surprised. "You haven’t met them? They are your parents. You should be spending some family time with them."

Natalie looked at Justin, who came to her rescue. "Julia, they’ve been together for barely over a day. Let them settle first. It would be better if we don’t disturb them yet."

As Julia looked at Natalie, she nodded in agreement with Justin. "Also, Grandma, due to my mother’s health reasons, she isn’t allowed to be surrounded by too many people."

Julia had to agree with the two.

At James’s Home.

The doctor was there to check on Caryn, along with the latest report he had received.

"Mrs. Harper, the reports are indeed great, and your immunity has improved quite well with the advanced medicines we’ve used since the start," the doctor said. "There are no signs of infection, even after your prolonged exposure outside. But we still have to be careful for a while."

Caryn couldn’t help but notice how the doctor had changed the way he addressed her. He had always called her Ms. Shaw, but now...

James hummed and looked at Caryn, who glared at him as if to say, Don’t even think about it.

In response, James smirked, as if replying, I make the rules here.
