Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 409: Sending Meira

Justin was called to the Riverdale estate, but he didn’t go—boldly rejecting the invitation and continuing his work at the office.

But then, at noon, someone arrived at his office. "Mr. Harper, Ms. Meira is here," Noah informed.

Justin was surprised to hear it. But then he could guess it must be another of Aeldric’s tactics to get to him.

"Let her in," Justin ordered.

Soon, Noah led the girl into Justin’s office.

Meira looked at Justin, then her innocent eyes wandered around the lavish office. "Brother, your office is beautiful."

Justin looked at her. "Have a seat."

She nodded and slowly sat in the chair Noah pulled out for her. There was a light smile on her lips as she said, "Brother, it’s the first time I got to see the city and actually come to a place other than the Riverdale estate. I didn’t know what I saw on TV was real. This city is beautiful. I wish I could go out more, but Grandpa..."

"Did he send you here?" Justin asked, keeping his expression unreadable—despite knowing she might not be his sister.

She was taken aback by the question—more like confused. "Umm... how should I put it? Well, Grandpa came to me and asked if I was bored. When I said yes, he asked if I’d like to go out and visit my brother, so I said yes. I’m glad he allowed me to."

Justin didn’t doubt her. It likely happened exactly as she said. This girl wasn’t even aware she might not truly belong to the Riverdale family.

"Since when have you known that he is your grandfather and part of your family?" Justin asked.

Her expression turned confused again, as if she was trying to understand why he was asking. "Don’t all kids know who their families are? I’ve always remembered him as my grandpa... and my only family."

Everything I know is what my nanny told me. Before he brought me to the Riverdale estate, he did tell me that my brother is back and he’s taking me to meet
