Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 465: Husband’s Care

Justin and Natalie returned home, where Justin asked Natalie to rest after she had lunch. He didn’t want her to wander around here and there much.

He brought her back to the room and led her to the bed.

Natalie pulled her hand from his hold and moved back. "This is too much now. I just had a meal, and you want me to rest already."

"You had a short stroll after the meal. Now there is no issue if you sleep," he looked at her with a serious gaze. "Sleeping on the left side will help."

Her face turned angry. "Justin, I am listening to everything you say. That doesn’t mean you dictate every move of mine. I am not even going outside the home—what more do you want me to do?" She raised her voice in frustration. "You make me feel like giving birth to our kids means being in prison. I am not liking this at all. Even when I was a nobody, a weak woman, I didn’t like to be caged."

"I am not caging you. I am just following the doctor’s advice," he said without any hint of emotion.

"That’s it. You and that damn doctor," she spat out angrily. "I’ve had enough. I am leaving this home."

She walked towards the door angrily. But before she could open the door entirely, a hand pushed the door back and stopped her.

Facing the closed door, she gritted her teeth. "Justin, I am warning you..."

Before she could say more, the man behind her turned her around, pressed her against the door, and kissed her. She wanted to protest, but he didn’t let go. Finally giving up, she melted into that kiss.

After being like a cold dictator, he was finally showing her some husbandly affection—intimacy that had been lacking for a while now. It seemed like he always had something else going on in his mind; he felt distant to her.

They kissed for a while, forgetting the argument they had had just a moment before. When he let go, leaving both of them breathless, he whispered against her lips, "Why don’t you listen to me, just this once, just for a few months?"

This time, there was a plea in his cold, breathless voice. His thumbs caressed her cheek softly. "Just listen to me."
