Chapter 289: James And Natalie

Justin was still occupied with an important meeting where no one dared to disturb him.

Half an hour later, when the meeting concluded and the attendees began to disperse, Noah approached him.

"Mr. Harper, we received a message. Mr. James Harper wants to meet you. He’s heading to your home."

Justin hummed thoughtfully, then paused as realization struck him. He turned to Noah. "Home? My new home?"

"Yes, Mr. Harper."

"Mr. Harper," another voice interrupted. It was John, and his tone suggested he was greeting someone.

"Where is Justin?" James’s unmistakable voice came through the phone.

Justin’s grip on the phone tightened. "My father is there?"

"Yes, Mr. Harper," Ryan confirmed.
