Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother-Chapter 400: Natalie, Adam Summers And Olive
Chapter 400: Natalie, Adam Summers And Olive
In the Imperial City, Natalie had a meeting with Adam Summers at the headquarters of the Summers Group. The Summers were considered the richest among the four families; the other three came after that.
Just like Justin, Adam Summers rarely showed up in the limelight and stayed away from any controversies. He was among the most successful young businessmen and was sought after by everyone.
Natalie had seen him in person during the Harper Group’s event when she was declared the CEO of Harper Group. She was aware that among the few close friends Justin had, Adam was one of them.
Natalie entered the head office of the Summers Group with her personal assistant Avery and her two bodyguards following them. She was now an influential figure, and everyone present rushed to take a look at this powerful woman.
Adam’s personal assistant, Henry, guided her to Adam’s office through the VIP elevator. Entering the president’s lavish office, she spotted Adam, who was waiting for her. He stood up from his chair behind the work table and came to her.
A tall, handsome man, with a noble aura and irresistibly attractive—just like Justin. She could sense the similar qualities in this man and couldn’t help but wonder, ’If I had a sister, I would have made her marry him. Oh, I have one. Mia. It would be so great if Mia also gets a good husband like me.’
"Glad to see you here, Ms. Harper," Adam welcomed her with a formal handshake.
Though she was his friend Justin’s—or shall he say Aiden Handrix’s—wife, Adam preferred to address her as the daughter of the Harper family, as she was here as the CEO of the Harper Group.
"Thank you, Mr. Summers."
Adam guided her toward his desk, where he sat in his chair and she sat opposite him.
Adam’s assistant Henry stood by Adam’s side, while Avery stood next to Natalie, just a step behind.
Both parties began discussing their partnership project, which lasted for the next half an hour. Once the decisions were made and agreed upon, the discussion turned casual over a cup of coffee, which included the current market stats and various other things.
Just then, the door of the office opened and someone entered. Adam looked at the newcomer, and Natalie turned her head to look at the door as well.
There was a young woman who had entered the office, carrying a lunch box in her hands.
Just then, one more person entered the office—Adam’s secretary, Sara.
"Mr. Adam, I tried to stop Ms. Hunt, but she insisted on entering the office without waiting for me to inform you," Sara said in a hurry.
Natalie looked at the two women. The young woman with the lunch box was calm as she looked at Sara, but said nothing. It looked like nothing could affect her.
’That girl looks interesting,’ Natalie thought as she observed the young woman carrying a lunch box and whom Sara had addressed as Ms. Hunt. ’She looks young. Maybe just a university student.’
Adam dismissed Sara while he looked at the young woman named Ms. Hunt.
She walked towards the center table placed in front of the couch in the office and placed the lunch box on it quietly, then went toward the desk, unbothered by anyone’s presence in the office, as if nothing mattered to her other than what she was doing.
She moved her hands to talk in sign language as she looked at Adam, but then gave up and pulled out her mobile phone from her jeans pocket, typed something on it, and showed it to Adam.
Adam read it and simply hummed.
Natalie deduced that she must be telling Adam about why she was here.
The woman turned to leave, but then her sight fell on Natalie, who was quietly observing her. Finally, there was a change in the calm expression of Ms. Hunt. Her gaze was curious and seemed to have questions in her mind.
"Yes, that’s her," Adam’s voice was heard, as if he understood what was going on in her mind. "Ms. Natalie Harper."
Adam looked at Natalie and said, "My wife, Olive."
Natalie was shocked to hear it, as if she had discovered the most shocking news of this era.
’Adam Summers was married. Since when?’ But then Natalie calmed herself, thinking, ’He is Justin’s friend. I can’t expect him to have an ordinary human life anymore.’
"Glad to meet you, Ms. Olive," Natalie said politely.
The woman moved her hand to say something, but then stopped and once more got hold of her mobile.
"No need to type in the mobile. I can understand sign language," Natalie replied.
She could understand that this woman couldn’t talk, though she could hear fine.
The woman talked through sign language, to which Natalie smiled and replied, "Thank you so much, Ms. Olive... I mean Olive."
Olive smiled lightly, said goodbye, and left the office.
Natalie looked at Adam, unsure what to say. She decided to wrap up things, not willing to probe into his private matters. But the way he introduced her to his wife showed he didn’t mind Natalie knowing about it. Probably, Justin knew it already.
Natalie left the Summers Group in sweet shock. The moment she sat in the car, she made a call.
Justin was busy working when Natalie’s call came through. The moment he received it, he heard her excited voice.
"Justin, did you know Adam Summers is married?" she asked. fгeewebnovёl.com
"Calm down," Justin replied.
"You didn’t tell me," she asked in a complaining tone.
"What’s there to talk about his private life?" Justin asked. "And when you are with me, I only have all my attention on you to even think about someone else."
She sighed, "You flirt. I can’t even blame you for not telling me. Anyways, have you met her?"
"I haven’t," he replied normally, as if he had no interest in seeing someone else’s wife.
Natalie continued on her own, like a gossip queen. Till now, the entire world was gossiping about her, and finally, she got the chance to talk about someone else’s secret.
"She looks really young, like she just entered her university. So beautiful and delicate. But I wonder how Adam Summers married such a young girl," Natalie said.
"As long as she is not a minor, it’s fine," Justin said.
"Umm... how should I put it? They don’t really look close, like a husband and wife. Something’s going on there," Natalie added. "Also, the girl can’t talk, so your friend should start learning sign language. The poor girl has to type everything. Must be hard for her to say whatever’s in her mind. She looks so quiet and..."
"Are you going to worry about other people’s lives now?" Justin interrupted her. "Adam always does everything thoughtfully. He knows well what he’s getting into."
Natalie could only agree. "Well, I can’t deny that. He seems to be a well-sorted person. Alright, I won’t talk about them. Now tell me about you. What are you doing?"
"Working and missing my beautiful wife at the same time."
"Liar!" she chuckled, and asked, "What is the situation with your family?"
"I am invited to Riverdale Estate for dinner," he replied.
"Woh! All the best then."
"You didn’t even ask if I had accepted the invitation," he countered.
"I know what your decision is," she replied confidently. "I know my husband at least that much."
He smiled lightly. "You can never be wrong."
