Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 422: Shocking Revelation From Serena

Justin and Natalie went to Justin’s room, where her bags were already kept. Just as she walked toward her bags, Justin held her hand and pulled her back, pressing her against his body. His hands settled at the small of her waist, not letting her move away from him, while she stood facing him, both hands resting against his chest.

She met his gaze and raised her brow, only to hear him say, "Shouldn’t you continue where you had stopped before? No one’s here now."

"That was my limit of pretending how happy I am for your second marriage," she countered, meeting his intimidating gaze.

"Second marriage?" Justin echoed the words like they were foreign to him. "Since when did a smart woman like you start to believe in such bullshit?"

Her hand resting on his chest caressed it gently—but in a warning way. "You should be thankful that I am smart, or you would have found yourself dead by now."

His hand moved to the back of her neck, caressing her nape in a suggestive way. "Then how about being smarter and a good wife—and continue where we left off?"

"You deserve a punishment for letting that kind of bullshit even exist," she said calmly, though her gaze was cold, revealing the anger simmering beneath. "Now be a good husband and let me freshen up with my own privacy."

As she said it like that, it was indeed his fault for letting her even hear about the nonsense Aeldric was planning.

I deserve it.

He sighed helplessly and let her go.

She smirked at his obedience and went to her bags. She opened one, pulled out her clothes, and headed to the bathroom.

"How about I help you?" he asked anyway.

"Stay there until I return—unless you want to starve for long," she warned, and entered the bathroom. She even locked it from inside.

A light, pleasant smirk painted his lips. He was clearly happy to have her by his side. As for devouring her—it wouldn’t be long till she gives up.

After a while, she returned from the bathroom and went straight to stand in front of the mirror. She could feel Justin’s intense gaze following her as if he couldn’t wait to get her under him, but she showed him no sign of consideration.

Instead, she continued her skincare routine, as Justin had already taken her vanity bag from her luggage and placed it in front of the mirror.

Such a thoughtful husband he had always been. It almost melted her heart, but she controlled herself and asked, "Were you surprised to see me here? I didn’t let Ryan inform you about it, saying it’s a surprise for you."

"Not entirely surprised, as I didn’t doubt the old man’s capabilities and his intentions," Justin replied casually, as if it was not a big deal.
