Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 61: Julia’s Demand

Julia’s eyes widened in realization. "It seems your ’friend’ is a woman—or perhaps your friend has an odd fondness for lip gloss. Or," her voice rose dramatically, "is he a man who swings the other way? Justin, don’t tell me you swing the other way too, and that’s why you keep rejecting all the blind dates I set up!" Her tone was full of mock horror. "Am I really not going to have my own great-grandchildren?!"

Justin ran a hand through his hair, frustration building. The start of this day had already been a disasters, and now this?

Noah, standing off to the side, was visibly struggling to keep from laughing. It was rare to see his normally composed, commanding boss so utterly helpless and frazzled.

"Grandma, stop being so dramatic. You know that’s not the case," Justin sighed, walking into his room and unbuttoning his shirt to change into his usual attire.

But, of course, Julia followed him right in. "If it’s not, then what is it?" she pressed.

"Grandma, I’m not a kid anymore. You really shouldn’t be barging into my room when I’m changing," he remarked, tossing his shirt aside and grabbing a fresh one from the wardrobe.

"I’m your grandma, and you’ll always be a child to me," she shot back, but she did turn around, facing her back at him to give him some privacy. "Now, tell me what’s really going on."

"Nothing is going on, Grandma," Justin repeated, pulling on his clean shirt and hoping she’d drop the subject.

Julia, of course, wasn’t having it. "Fine, then tell me when you’re planning to introduce me to my granddaughter—your sister, Natalie."

Justin froze, his words slipping out before he could stop them. "She’s not my sister."

"Brat! How dare you say that?" Julia snapped, whirling back around, her eyes full of outrage.
