Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 81: Shocked Mia

"Cookie for you." Natalie smiled awkwardly and hugged her friend tightly.

While Justin walked towards Albert, blocking his view of the two women.

Just as in sync with Justin’s action, Natalie whispered to Mia, "Say another word and I will choke your throat," and released her friend from her grasp. who had her mouth stuffed, her senses shocked.

"That’s such a great surprise, Mia. How I missed you," Natalie offered her sweetest smile, but Mia could see it was a fake one.

Cough! Cough!

Mia finally could not take it and coughed a cookie. Natalie held her hand and dragged her to the kitchen, "I will get you water."

By that time Justin had already taken seat next to Albert, feeling relieved that Natalie’s friend didn’t spill the beans. He had seen Mia with Natalie during the Masquerade party and could see these two were as tight as two peas in pods.

Albert chuckled as he watched the two heading to the kitchen, "She is Natalie’s best friend, more like a sister."

Justin simply hummed while he thought, ’A friend who knows the password of her home lock while I don’t despite staying here for a few days now.’

In the kitchen, Natalie dragged Mia into a corner and handed her a glass of water, giving her a look that clearly said, keep quiet.

Mia, still recovering from her near-choking experience, glared at Natalie. "Are you trying to kill me with your cookies?"

Natalie gave her an apologetic smile and whispered, "I’m sorry, okay? But I had to stop you. You were about to call him by his real name!"
