Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother novel Chapter 419

Chapter 419: Natalie At Riverdale Estate

Justin settled Meira on the bed and checked her ankle. Lana waited to get orders from Justin while Noah stood outside the room.

Her ankle was a little swollen. She must have twisted it when Noah pulled her back with force. Justin applied the ointment on it and taped it securely.

"Does it hurt badly?" Justin asked.

She shook her head. "Only if I move it more."

"Tomorrow we will visit the doctor," Justin assured her. "Now you should sleep."

She hummed and lay in bed while Justin covered her. He looked at her for the last time before he left. "Don’t have any other ideas in your mind. Tomorrow morning, I want to see you at the breakfast table."

She quietly nodded.

"Good night," he said and left, after looking at Lana, who understood to keep watch on Meira even if she looked fine at this moment.

Justin closed the door behind and turned to Noah. "How did you know where she was gone?" Justin asked.

"From the line she wrote in her letter," Noah replied, and explained his conversation with Meira he had at noon. "I was wrong to ignore her words when she said, ’Even if I have to die here someday, I would like to die while watching that night view.’ I should have guessed what she was planning."

Justin didn’t comment and said, "Go back to your room and sleep."

Noah nodded and watched Justin go upstairs to his room. Noah looked at the closed door of Meira’s room. His heart and mind were yet not calm. While working with Justin, he had seen many people dying, and there were also moments when he had to kill people as well.

But it was the first time he was scared to see someone dying. In his mind, that innocent girl, who didn’t know any evil, didn’t deserve to die like this.

Sighing inwardly, he returned to his room anyway.

The next morning, everyone was ready to head to the breakfast table when a security guard informed Aeldric about the arrival of a guest. Aeldric had a smirk on his lips and asked the butler, "Where is Aiden?"

"Young master is in his room. He will head downstairs in a while," the butler replied.

Just then, a guard led the way for the guest into the drawing room. A charismatic woman wearing a stylish business suit entered the room.

She walked towards the grand sofa where Aeldric was waiting for her.

"Ms. Natalie Harper, glad to see you in person," Aeldric said as he stood up to greet her, his lips curving into a pleasant smirk.

Natalie met his gaze squarely, her demeanor confident even when she was facing one of the most dangerous people to deal with. "When Mr. Riverdale went through the trouble of sending me an invite to attend the wedding of my own husband, how could I not come in person to show my gratitude?"

"I thought you are an important person to Aiden, so you should be the first one to get the invitation," Aeldric replied.

In response, she smiled. "I can’t thank you more."

Just then, Noah came out of the guest room and spotted Natalie in the drawing room. He went to her and bowed lightly, "Ms. Natalie."
