Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 347: Introducing The Family Members

Soon, the banquet ended, and the guests departed. The Queen took this opportunity to introduce Natalie to the royal family members and close relatives.

"Natalie, this is Howard, my elder brother," the Queen began, "his son, Garwin, and his granddaughter, Charlotte."

Natalie offered them a polite nod, to which they responded in kind.

"Good to see you back in the family, Natalie," Howard said. "We’re all glad that my sister was able to find you."

Natalie simply smiled in response as he continued, "My granddaughter, Charlotte, is around your age. I hope you two can get along well."

Natalie and Charlotte exchanged glances.

"I will be a good elder sister to her," Natalie said, making it clear she was the older one.

Howard turned to the Queen. "Sister, it’s truly fortunate that we have Carmen and her daughter back. But I hope you won’t overlook Charlotte. After all, you raised her since she lost her mother at birth."

"Of course, Howard. Charlotte and Natalie are both my granddaughters. I will not ignore either of them," the Queen assured him before turning to another man who bore a resemblance to Howard.

"Natalie, this is Lenard, my younger brother," she said. "His wife, Saira, and their sons, Rhys and Isac."

Natalie knew Lenard was the Queen’s half-brother. Unlike Howard, he preferred to stay away from royal affairs, focusing instead on his business with his two sons. Being much younger than the Queen and Howard, Lenard looked around the same age as his nephew, Garwin.

No wonder his sons, Rhys and Isac, were also relatively young—Rhys being a few years older than Natalie, while Isac was closer to her age.

She greeted Lenard with a polite nod before looking at his two sons. She immediately recognized Rhys as the man who had personally brought her meal, which had been ordered by James Harper.

Both of them exchanged smiles.

"Mr. Rhys," Natalie greeted with a smile, "good to see you again."

"To think of it, you’re my niece now," Rhys said with amusement. "But since I’m not much older than you, you can just call me Rhys like Charlotte does."

"Alright," she agreed.
