Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother-Chapter 451: Shocking Revelations

"I did. And now, I’m going to show you exactly what I did, Aeldric Riverdale—but the only difference is, it’ll be your grandson and his wife in your son and his wife’s place."

Aeldric’s grip tightened on his cane, his eyes burning with fury.

"Calm down, old man," Justin said. "It’s not for you to kill him. So stay put."

Aeldric rooted himself in place, deciding to listen to Justin.

Colin looked at Aeldric. "How about I spare your life in exchange for Natalie Harper, your granddaughter-in-law? You could live at least a few more years—though you’re already a step away from your grave."

"We Riverdales are true men. We don’t hide behind the women in the family," Aeldric spat. "Go ahead and kill me."

"Are you looking for me?" Natalie was coming downstairs, her eyes sleepy as she rubbed them with the back of her fingers. "I heard someone say my name."

"Get that woman," Colin instructed the gunmen, smirking at Justin.

Justin ignored him and looked at Natalie. "Come here."

She walked over to Justin, and—as usual—he made her sit in his lap, shamelessly and overly affectionate despite the situation.

"Why did you come downstairs? I told you to sleep and I’d take care of things," Justin said as he caressed her messy hair to fix it.

"I was just curious to see this bastard Colin’s reaction. Didn’t want to miss the fun," she replied like a little girl craving excitement.

"Are you hungry?" he asked.

She nodded.

Justin looked at the butler. "Bring juice and some snacks."

The butler nodded and headed to the kitchen.

Others in the home were used to seeing Justin like this, but Colin was surprised. Shouldn’t they be worried and scared?

Colin looked at the gunmen. "What are you doing? Go get her."

The two gunmen didn’t budge, while Natalie stood up and walked over to them. Without a hint of hesitation, she faced the two directly. "So, you guys are being asked to catch me. Aren’t you going to do that?"

The gunmen immediately fell to their knees and lowered their heads in front of her in submission.

Colin was shocked to see this and stood up, his gaze filled with anger. "What are you two doing?" He looked at the others—nearly ten of them. They were doing the same.

Colin was left entirely baffled. Grace, who was watching all this from one corner of the home, hiding behind a door, was equally shocked and didn’t even dare to make a sound.

Justin stood up and walked to Natalie. "Would they even dare to lay eyes on their boss’s wife and expect to live?"

She looked at Justin, a playful smirk on her lips. "You never disappoint me, do you?"

Justin had never told her, but she had already guessed why he was so relaxed even while facing the Obsidian squad. She was smart enough to figure it out.

"Same goes for you," he replied casually, with a smirk. "As smart as always."

Everyone else heard what Justin said. He had just called himself the boss of the gunmen, who were said to belong to the most dangerous organization.

"What did you just say?" Aeldric asked, while Colin stood frozen in shock.

"Are you the boss of Obsidian?" Aeldric asked again, disbelief written all over his face.

Just a while ago, he thought the Riverdales might really be wiped out, but now...

Justin looked at Aeldric but offered no reply—as if the old man were asking an obvious question.

Instead, he looked at Colin, who appeared completely shaken. "Have something to say, Colin Hartz?"

Colin took a step back, having nothing to say.

"Are you done yet?" a familiar voice came through. A man entered the drawing room—Aaron.

"Not yet," Justin replied to him, while Colin looked shocked all over again.

"This... who is this?" Colin asked.

"Aaron, the one who married your daughter," Justin replied.

Grace, who was still hiding, was utterly shocked. No wonder Aiden always said he had only one wife. Seeing what was happening, she decided to escape secretly from there.

"Take this man away," Justin ordered his people, "Take his daughter away as well," and looked back at Natalie, "Didn’t I say it was the last time you would be seeing her?"

Natalie nodded, not having any mercy for Grace. After dealing with Briena, she was well aware such women could never be good to anyone.

Justin looked at Aaron. "We’ll take him there tomorrow."

Aaron hummed and walked over to Colin, who was now being held by the gunmen. His cold gaze fixed on Colin’s terrified face. "Enjoy the last moments you have until tomorrow. After that, you’ll be begging for a quick death."

A shiver ran down Colin’s spine. "Forgive me. I was out of line. I will—"

The gunmen shut his mouth and dragged him away.

Justin stopped midway on the stairs and instructed his men and servants once more. "Make sure to clean those dead bodies and even the stench of their existence before my wife wakes up."

The gunmen bowed and already marched out, while the servants hurried to carry out the orders.

The butler brought the juice and snacks for Natalie. "Bring it to the room," Justin ordered as he led Natalie back upstairs. freēnovelkiss.com

Aeldric, still stunned, looked at Aaron, who was about to leave the house. "Is Aiden really the boss of Obsidian?"

Aaron stopped and turned to look at the old man. "Yes, he is. But don’t you dare give the credit for that to your bloodline," Aaron warned. "He took after my mother. That’s why he’s so capable and can’t be deceived by anyone—unlike you, who was being deceived by people right under your nose. The best of it is yet to come for you. Just wait till tomorrow."

"Your mother, that ordinary woman. What can she—"

"Shut up," Aaron warned. "Ever heard of the name Wasp from the past?"

"That top assassin from decades back?" Aeldric asked, still conflicted.

"That’s my mother," Aaron replied.

Aeldric was left stunned once more. Serena was Wasp—the assassin that everyone had feared back then. All of a sudden, she had disappeared, and no one knew where she went.

So, all along, she had been with his son Alexander... and had even given birth to two grandsons.

"I didn’t take after you either," Aaron said. "I took after my father, who was nothing like you—which gives me comfort in knowing that I even inherited the blood of someone like you." Aaron left without saying another word.

Aeldric was left standing there, stunned.
