Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 471: Sad Meira

Natalie and Julia were taking a stroll outside in the evening, enjoying the pleasant weather caused by the rain the previous night.

"Mother has gone to Belvorn, and Dad and Justin are busy helping her in taking care of the enemies," Natalie said. "While I feel bored here. I wish I could go there and see Charlotte’s face when she gets what she knows is the truth."

"I will ask James to record it all. I am sure he will do it for his daughter happily," Julia said.

"Sounds like a good idea," Natalie said, and then looked towards Meira’s residence. "Is she going to be late today as well?"

"You should be wondering how her time with Noah was," Julia said playfully. "I wonder if there’s something cooking—or already cooked—between them, since Noah is especially so caring towards her."

"Grandma, I don’t think Noah is that kind of a person. He knows she is still so young and naive. I am sure he won’t scare her away," Natalie said. "The reason I trust him with Meira so blindly is because I know he is a good man."

Julia hummed, "You are right. I forgot she is still young, but I was carried away by the air of a new love story forming. I have observed Noah for a while now since he has been with Justin. I can tell he is a good man—the kind I would even want to marry off my own daughter to."

Natalie hummed in agreement.

As they were close to Meira’s home, Julia noticed a car parked. "Isn’t that Meira’s car?"

Natalie nodded. "Seems like she has returned early today."

"How about we go ask her... I mean, just to know where those two stand..."

Natalie agreed and went to the residence, where the servant greeted her. "Is Meira home?"

"Yes, Madam," the servant replied politely. "Ms. Meira returned at noon, and she has been in her room since then."

"Noon?" Natalie realised that meant Meira didn’t attend all the classes. "Is she alright?" Natalie asked the servant.

"I am not sure. Ms. Meira didn’t talk much, but she did look a little pale. I brought her snacks, but she didn’t eat."

Natalie and Julia looked at each other, wondering what had happened.

Both of them went to Meira’s room, where they entered after knocking on the door. A delicate figure was sitting in the high-backrest chair with her legs folded up, making her body appear small in that oversized chair. She was seemingly lost while looking ahead toward the view of the mountain, their tops appearing foggy after the rain.

She was so lost that she didn’t even realize the arrival of the two women.

"Meira?" Natalie called her softly.

Meira finally sensed something and looked toward the source of the voice.
