Chapter 368: Be Together Till You Die
"That day, James Harper told me you are his adopted son," Natalie said. "I think now I know the reason. He sure saved me from having a panic attack thinking I was married to my own brother. When he revealed I am his daughter, I was so relieved to already know we are not blood-related."
Justin admired that James had surely made things easier for him.
"He is a thoughtful man. I wouldn’t mind having him as my father. At least he is smart, rational, and a no-drama person," she commented.
"More like he is aware of how much trouble your stubborn mother could be, so he made it easier for himself by solving some issues beforehand. Now he only has to pay attention to his woman while leaving his daughter to me," Justin added.
"He doesn’t have any issues with us being together. That’s such a relief," she said again.
Justin hummed, as he couldn’t deny it either.
Then Natalie laughed at something and said, "He must be the first father in the world who raised his son-in-law himself and was sure that he had raised a perfect man for his daughter. The kind of relief he has—every father in the world can envy him."
She turned to her side and moved closer to Justin, resting her face on his chest as she looked up at him. "But his actions also show his unwavering trust in you."
"That goes both ways," Justin replied.
"I wonder how two men can have such a deep understanding of each other and act in perfect sync without even having a proper conversation, as if you two can predict each other’s actions on your own," Natalie added with amusement. "When I came to attend the annual event of the Royal Family, James Harper was with me, and you were away. But the day he left, you were already by my side. At that time, I didn’t think much, but now I can guess—you two act in perfect sync. You two didn’t let me be here alone and unprotected."
"You’re not wrong," Justin added. "We are just used to each other’s ways and thought processes."
