Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 312: Mocking Ivan Brown-III

"Nat, you are being deceived by these men and their fake affection," Ivan said.

Natalie looked at him, her expression haughty as she wrapped one hand around Justin’s neck while the other moved along his chest. "I am used to being deceived by fake affection. Nothing new to me. But the good thing is, all these men are way better than you. They are so pleasing to my eyes that I don’t mind anything they do."

Ivan found it unbelievable that Natalie had turned out like this. "I don’t believe you can be like this. You’re just doing this to show me, right?"

"So how do you expect me to be?" Natalie asked, making herself comfortable in Justin’s embrace. "The same naive girl who would be deceived by whatever you say?" She chuckled mockingly. "Get over yourself, Ivan Brown. Just know that you are nobody. If not for me coming to your rescue back then, you and your family would have been begging on the streets after bankruptcy. What kind of audacity do you have to say that you can protect and support me?"

"Nat, your mother is back. Does she know how you’ve turned out like this?" Ivan asked, feeling bitter at her words. It was true, but who would accept it?

"Oh, that reminded me," Justin said, looking back at Natalie. "I just got back from meeting your mother."

"You went alone?" Vincent asked. "I shall pay her a visit as well. I need to thank her on behalf of my sweetheart for exposing that bastard Jay Ford."

"Make sure to take me with you as well," Victor added. "I want to see the great woman who gave birth to my love."

Ivan realized these people were even close to Natalie’s mother. He felt lost for words. His hopes of getting back with Natalie were shattering at this moment.

Natalie stood up from Justin’s lap and walked over to Ivan. "Ivan Brown, if not for the gratitude I felt towards you, thinking you were the one to message me during my years in Xyros, trust me, you never stood a chance to be with me. I admit I was blind—but not anymore."
