Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother - Chapter 111
Chapter 111: Take A Chance And Try Your Luck Chapter 111: Take A Chance And Try Your Luck Not answering her, Justin guided her to the elevator.
Once inside, he pressed the button for the upper floor.
“Why are we going up?” she asked, once again.
“Don’t you think it’s time to rest your mind and follow me quietly?” he commented.
“Give your tired mind some rest.” Natalie kept quiet.
When they reached the floor, a man in a suit was waiting for them.
He bowed and silently led the way.
Natalie, puzzled by what was going on, wanted to ask but decided otherwise, not wanting to hear another one of his sarcastic remarks.
The man opened the door to one of the rooms and said, “This VIP patient suite has been prepared for you.” Justin offered a light nod and entered the suite, holding Natalie’s hand.
“If you need anything, please let me know,” the man said before leaving.
“You booked a patient suite for us?” Natalie asked.
“What if a patient needs it?” “The number of VIP patients who can stay in such suits is low, which is why it’s vacant,” Justin explained.
“Now, stop fussing and think of it as doing some charity for this hospital by paying to use this empty room, rather than staying in a hotel.” “I am not going to pay for this,” she declared.
“Then who else will?” Justin asked as he hung his jacket on the wooden stand.
“Didn’t you here them?
I’m just a poor husband mooching off his rich wife.
So let me experience how does it feel to have a rich wife and enjoying her money.” Natalie didn’t move from her spot, reluctant to use the suite and then end up paying for it.
“Don’t get too much into character, alright?
Just behave as what you are, Justin Harper, a rich man who certainly doesn’t need to live off of his wife.” He turned to face her, his gaze becoming intense.
“I’m used to being in the character of your husband now, Natalie.
Be a good girl and sleep before this husband decides to exert his rights over you.
Though you might enjoy it, I do not wish to hurry and certainly the place like hospital is not suitable for it.
But if you want to…” he stepped further closer, his eyes not leaving hers. Natalie gulped and took a step back.
She glanced at the bed and immediately moved towards it.
Justin wanted to laugh at her but held back.
She was no less than a scared kitten.
‘So easy to intimidate.’ She climbed into bed and lay on one side, turning her back to the other empty side of the queen-size bed.
Justin removed his belt, hung it up, and walked over to the bed.
“I hope you’re not going to ask me to sleep on the couch now?” he commented.
“We share a bed anyway.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
I don’t want to be hypocritical at this moment.” “You sure are smart.” Justin turned off the lights and got into bed, covering them both with the blanket.
Since it wasn’t a very big bed, there wasn’t much space between them.
Natalie tried to sleep, but despite being exhausted and sleep-deprived, she couldn’t drift off.
Although she didn’t move, Justin spoke, “Can’t sleep?” “Maybe it’s because it’s a new place,” she replied, not turning to look at him.
“Or maybe you need some comfort,” he suggested.
“Comfort?” “You can hug me and sleep comfortably.” She frowned.
“Don’t try to take a chance with me.
Don’t push your luck.” “I was letting you take a chance with me instead.
Maybe you’ve stumbled upon good luck tonight.” “I don’t want any chance or luck with you.” “Didn’t you sleep so well last night when I hugged you?” “That was you seeking comfort from me.
I didn’t ask you to hug me.” “Alright, it was all me,” he said and turned toward her, hugging her once more like the previous night.
“Let me try my luck again, then.” His one hand slipped under her neck to circle in front of her shoulders and other circled around her stomach. “What are you doing?” “Seeking comfort.” “Justin€¦” Her words stuck in her throat at this closeness.
Neither could she accept it, nor did she want to reject it.
“Hmm?” That deep, throaty ‘hmm’ made her heart almost jump.
She inhaled deeply to calm herself. “I’m fine.
You can sleep on your side,” she said, her voice low and hesitant.
“Just sleep, Natalie,” his deep voice echoed at the back of her neck, his lips brushing against her skin as he spoke.
“You know you’re feeling comfortable and want to sleep like this.
You won’t feel lonely this way, after your entire family abandoned you in the hospital without even asking what you were going to do.” Natalie’s eyes turned moist.
Even though she didn’t like her family members much, seeing them all planning together and leaving her out of the discussion hurt when she was right there.
Without her grandpa, she felt utterly lonely and emotional.
“Why do you always have to be so blunt?” she mumbled, her voice choked with emotion.
“Can’t you just pretend you don’t know anything?” “I can’t when the person with me is hurting,” he responded and tightened his hold around her.
“Let them go.
I’m here with you.
Once Mr.
Ford is better, we’ll take him with us as well.” “Can we?” “Hmm.” “But€¦” her voice broke as tears rolled down her cheeks, “Grandma said she’ll take him home and won’t allow me to€¦” “I won’t let that happen.
Trust me.” Natalie hummed softly, her voice barely audible.
Justin let her cry for a while and then spoke again, “You know, I wouldn’t mind if you took a chance on me.
If you try your luck, you might truly find yourself fortunate.” Still crying, Natalie didn’t know what to do with this man.
She quietly turned around to face him, buried her face against his chest, and hugged him while continued to sob lightly. Justin wrapped his arms around her once more and let her emotions flow out.
No words needed to be said.
