Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 64: Julia Meeting Briena

Meanwhile, at the hotel suite, Justin was buried in work while Julia paced impatiently in front of his desk, constantly interrupting him.

"How much longer do I have to wait to see her? My own granddaughter!" Julia huffed. "When is she going to visit your new home?"

"I’m not sure, Grandma," Justin replied, trying to keep his tone calm. "She doesn’t consult me before making her plans."

Julia sighed dramatically. "At least let me watch her from a distance. The last time I saw her, she was five years old. You have to find a way, or I swear I won’t let you work."

Justin, who had been enduring her complaints for a while, pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration. "Grandma, please, just be patient and find something else to do in the meantime."

Huffing like an upset child, Julia grabbed her phone. "You’re useless! I’ll just go meet Andrew. He said he was going to introduce me to the grandfather of a girl who seems perfect for you."

Justin immediately tensed up. "Grandma, wait!" He quickly called out for his assistant. "Noah, where’s Natalie right now?"

"Ms. Natalie is at her company office, Mr. Harper," Noah responded promptly.

"Take Grandma there," Justin instructed, glancing at Julia. "Let her see her granddaughter from a distance, but make sure she doesn’t get noticed."

"Yes, Mr. Harper," Noah nodded, then turned to Julia with a smile. "Please come with me, Grandma Harper."

Julia beamed, already forgetting her frustration. "Noah, you’re such a good boy," she said, happily following him, leaving Justin to watch in disbelief. It was as if he hadn’t given the order, but Noah was the hero of the hour.

As soon as they left, Justin wasted no time dialing Andrew’s number. When Andrew picked up, Justin spoke quickly. "Grandpa, Grandma wants to meet your friend—Natalie’s grandfather. You need to tell her that the girl is already engaged and unavailable for me, or she’ll never give up on meeting Mr. Ford."

Andrew chuckled on the other end of the line. "Alright, leave it to me."

Justin sighed in relief, knowing this would at least buy him some time to deal with the chaos unfolding around him.

Noah and Julia reached the corporate building where Natalie’s office was located. While Julia settled in the reception area, Noah approached John, Natalie’s assigned bodyguard, to inquire about her whereabouts and when she might be leaving.

"I’m not sure," John replied, looking a bit uncomfortable. "She’s been up on the office floor since she arrived, and she hasn’t let me follow her or ask questions."

"Maybe give her a call? Make up an excuse," Noah suggested.

Though hesitant, John dialed Natalie’s number. After a few rings, a hasty, no-nonsense voice picked up on the other end. "Speak."

"Ms. Natalie, may I know when you’ll be downstairs?" John asked carefully.
