The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 789

A flicker of disdain flashed in Megan's eyes when she heard Mila's righteous accusations against Kari. How could someone who had had an affair have the audacity to blame others? But Megan had made up her mind that Nathan was indeed an excellent choice. She wanted to marry Nathan and knew she had to get along with Mila.

"Ma'am, don't get too upset. Ms. Malone might not understand your good intentions right now. In time, she might."

"They're about to get married. We're running out of time."

Mila felt the greatest indignity of her life. Her son, whom she had raised single-handedly, was not only disobedient but also defied her!

Megan rolled her eyes when she heard this. She had researched Kari, and compared to her peers, Kari was truly outstanding. It was a pity that she did not meet the Jarvis family's standards. Apart from being her love rival, Megan bore no malice towards Kari. But sadly, this marriage could not happen.

Perhaps Nathan's warning had worked. Mila had been unusually quiet the past few days. Kari was taken aback.

"Don't take my mom's words to heart. I have no intention of returning to the Jarvis family. You don't need to interact with them much, either. I'm living my life with you."

He had the right to decide with whom he wanted to spend his life.

Hearing this, Kari was reassured. "Nathan, thank you for understanding me."

Indeed, she could not adapt to the high-society lifestyle Mila was accustomed to. She had attended numerous parties with Brittany, and while she could socialize at evening parties, high-society afternoon teas were a real challenge for her.

Nathan comforted Kari and dropped her off at her studio. Over the past five years, Kari had made a name for herself at the studio as the second-in-command and had her own office.

Megan was sitting inside when she pushed open the door.

"Ms. Campbell, what brings you here?" Kari frowned at the sight of Megan in her office. They were not friendly enough for Megan to just walk into her office.

"Sorry for dropping by unannounced, Ms. Malone. I hope you don't mind," Megan said with an insincere apology.

Kari sat down and poured Megan a cup of coffee.
