Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 221

Chapter 221: Vincent’s Demand

"So, what do you want me to do?" Vincent asked casually.

His words pulled Natalie out of her thoughts. "What do you mean?"

"Do you want me to drag this Aiden Hendrix—or Shaw, whatever he calls himself—to you? Or would you prefer to come with me and personally press a gun to his temple?" His tone was so nonchalant it was as if he were talking about a stroll in the park.

"There’s no need to do anything," Natalie said firmly. "I’ve already found him."

"Found him?" Vincent raised an eyebrow. "Did he come to you on his own?"

"Yes, and we’re together now. So stay out of it. You’ve done enough." Her tone was dismissive, signaling the end of the conversation.

Vincent’s expression darkened, his voice taking on a dangerous edge. "After making me work for you, you dare to dismiss me like this? Are you taking me for granted because I’ve given you some freedom? Do you want me to take you back to Xyros right now?"

Natalie swallowed hard. Despite his usual care and gentleness toward her, she was all too aware of the darker side of Vincent—the one she had no intention of provoking.

"What do you want to do, then?" she asked carefully. "You can stay in this city and... have some fun."

"Oh, I will," Vincent replied with a smirk. "But first, I want to meet your husband in person. Once I see him..." He paused, the smirk widening. "...I’ll be good to him."

Natalie’s heart sank. The idea of Vincent meeting Justin—or Aiden—was alarming. She couldn’t allow that to happen.

"You don’t need to," she said quickly, trying to dissuade him.

"But I want to," Vincent replied, his tone firm. "If I see that the reason I let you go isn’t good enough—that he’s not suitable for you—you’re coming back with me to Xyros. No arguments."

Natalie clenched her fists in frustration, but she knew better than to challenge him outright. She needed to think fast to prevent Vincent from crossing paths with Justin—or worse, Aiden.
