Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother novel Chapter 375

Chapter 375: Justin’s Declaration

Natalie and Justin entered the event hall after going through the charade of numerous flashes and lenses capturing their every move outside the venue. It was as if they had just crossed a vast ocean of flashing lights.

The couple looked incredibly eye-catching as they walked together, perfectly complementing one another.

Natalie wore a glamorous, floor-length black evening gown with a single-shoulder neckline. The bodice and upper part of the skirt were richly adorned with silver sequins and intricate beading, creating a visually captivating and luxurious effect.

Below the hips, the dress transitioned into a light, flowing tulle skirt that added volume and softness, giving the gown a mermaid-like silhouette. The sheer tulle added a dreamy, airy quality to the design, delicately contrasting with the heavily embellished top.

Light makeup, delicate jewelry, and her hair left open in a slick hairstyle—she looked no less than a model.

Justin wore a black tuxedo that enhanced the charm of his perfectly built physique. His refined and sharp features, paired with the commanding aura he carried, were simply breathtaking.

At that moment, men couldn’t help but follow Natalie with their eyes, while the women had their gazes fixed on Justin.

All of them wondered the girl they all had seen only in bad light and never had a good opinion about due to the scandals surrounding her, was now above them and they couldn’t dare offend her.

Briena and Irene couldn’t help but feel envious—but the thought of possibly meeting Justin Harper and taking their chances with him kept them composed.

James Harper’s family had finally arrived—along with the extended family. On James’s behalf, Julia had already explained the situation regarding Justin being the adopted son and other truths, which were happily accepted by the family members.

Sebastian, who had previously been sulking, thinking Justin had married his half-sister, could finally relax and accept it all.

Other prominent business families in the city were present as well—Rowan, Morris, and this time, even Adam Summers had made an appearance.

"That bastard almost scared me into thinking he married his sister," Rowan muttered. "Thankfully, that wasn’t the case."

"Stop your brain from wandering into more annoying thoughts and let’s enjoy today’s show," Morris said. "These people don’t know they’re in for another surprise. What do you say, Adam?"

"Wouldn’t be wrong to say I’ve been waiting for this day all along—when he would finally reveal himself," Adam replied.

The event began as James Harper took the stage. Yet, to everyone watching, there was still no sign of James Harper’s son.

The most sought-after but notoriously unapproachable businessman was finally going to speak.

"Thank you all for making your presence here on the most important day for the Harper family and the Harper Group," James began. "Today, the Harper Group will be announcing its new Global CEO. But before that, I would like to officially introduce my family to you all—though most of you have probably already heard about them through the news."

James looked at Caryn, who was sitting in a chair.

"You all know my mother, Julia Harper," he said, then shifted his gaze to the woman in the wheelchair. "My wife, Mrs. Caryn Harper. We had been separated for some unfortunate reasons, but I am glad we are back together."

Jay, who was standing in the audience, didn’t know how to react. That woman—Caryn—was back, and not even once had she tried to reach out to him or clear the air. All he had received were legal documents from James Harper, formally declaring the end of their marriage and stating that she was now free to marry someone else.

"My daughter, Natalie," James continued. "I feel fortunate to have her. She is back with a real family—one that will cherish her the way she deserves to be cherished. She is the daughter of the Harper family."
