Chapter 372: Adopted Son And Natalie’s Husband

In the evening, Julia arrived at James’ home with Natalie. James was present in the drawing room to welcome them, while Caryn was still inside her room.

Natalie had conflicted emotions in her heart as she met this man as her father—after he had declared it in front of the entire world. She didn’t know how to go about it. How was she supposed to suddenly address this man as father when she still called her mother by name?

James approached them, his gaze settling on Natalie, who offered him a polite nod. Meanwhile, Julia immediately spoke up.

"You finally did something to make your mother proud of you. You married the one you always loved."

Just like always, unaffected by any of her remarks, James said, "Have a seat first."

As they walked toward the sofa, Julia said to Natalie, "You know, your father has always been madly in love with your mother, even after she left him..."

"Mother, do you really have to tell all this to my daughter even before she knows me well enough on her own and gets used to calling me father?" James commented. "Leave her be."

"Are you worried your fake cold and aloof persona will be lifted in front of your daughter if I tell her what you don’t show others?" Julia countered.

"My actions from the past few days are enough to let her know what I feel for her mother. There is no need for you to waste your words," James replied without a tinge of hesitation.

Natalie couldn’t deny this claim. Even at this age this man was bold enough to frisk away his woman in front of entire world, without caring for what others would even say. One could only imagine the depth of his love towards that woman.

"I need something to talk about with my granddaughter, so gossiping about you seems like a good start," Julia countered. "And you can’t stop me."

James sighed and helped his mother settle on the sofa.

Natalie tried her best not to smile at the way these two were bickering. She hadn’t expected James to talk this much.

James looked at Natalie. "Justin?"
