Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 169

Chapter 169: Another Plan

The next morning, Natalie and Justin started their day as usual. Both prepared the breakfast and enjoyed it together while they discussed Natalie’s next plans related to her company.

As Justin had decided to give her time, he kept his intentions of pursuing her low. Once they finished everything, Justin was ready to leave.

"I have to leave early today," Justin informed getting his laptop bag after putting on the shoes.

Natalie nodded, her eyes lingering on him.

Dressed perfectly, exuding effortless charm, Justin was undoubtedly the most handsome man she had ever seen.

"I’ll head out in about half an hour," she replied. "If you can, stop by to visit Grandpa during lunch."

Justin gave a small nod but arched a brow, as if waiting for something. "That’s it?"

Natalie blinked, puzzled. Before she could respond, Justin stepped closer, his tall frame towering over her. His gaze, intense and focused, locked onto hers.

Her heart began to race, and she suddenly realized what he was waiting for.

Justin leaned in, his face just inches from hers, his voice low and deliberate. "Today, I’ll take the lead. But from now on, you need to remember what to do."

Natalie’s breath hitched. Just this small proximity sent a shiver through her, and she found herself frozen in place, caught in his magnetic gaze.

He tilted his head, drawing even closer, and the world around her seemed to disappear. The air between them grew charged, and her pulse quickened as he slowly closed the tiny gap between them.

But before their lips could meet, the main door opened after the subtle sound of door unlocking.

A loud gasp from the newcomer shattered the stillness.

Natalie jumped back, her heart hammering in her chest, while Justin’s expression shifted into a frown of annoyance. He turned toward the source of the interruption.
