Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 469: Meira’s Trouble

That day, once more Meira was late to return home. Julia and Natalie were waiting for her.

"That girl always forgets to charge her cellphone. Let her return and I will teach her a lesson," Julia said worriedly.

Now Natalie felt worried as well and pulled out her cellphone. Meira’s cellphone was truly off.

Justin came out and saw the two worried women. "What’s the matter?"

Natalie told him everything. He got his cellphone and made a call. "Noah, Meira is still not home. Go check at her university," and hung up the call.

Natalie turned to him. "We should keep a bodyguard with her."

"She refused," Justin said. "She said it made her feel different from other students and drew more attention toward her."

Natalie recalled why Lana had to return—because Meira didn’t want a bodyguard and wanted a normal way of life.

"Don’t worry. Noah will handle it," Justin assured.

"It’s good he has a home near her university," Natalie commented, to which Justin simply hummed, "Both of you come inside. The wind is getting harsh."

Both of them listened to him.

Noah reached Meira’s university, in her department. There were barely one or two students left, who were packing to leave as well. Noah watched from the door, where Meira was immersed in her work. The white apron she was wearing had color stains on it. Not just her hands but even her face had a few marks of paint.

Out of the two students who were leaving, one of them went to her. "Meira, you truly are a good artist. Can’t tell you just joined us."

Meira simply looked at him, unsure how to react to praise. "Thank... you..."
