The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

Chapter 776

Kari paused mid-bite, “Regardless, she’s your mother.”

Nathan was reluctant to talk about the past, but Kari was the woman he planned to marry, and it didn’t feel right to hide it from her.

He set down his fork and knife, “My mother was the other woman. When she gave birth to me, the original Mrs. Jarvis was still alive. Later, I was adopted into the Jarvis family.”

Truth be told, the Jarvis family treated him well.

Even the son of the original Mrs. Jarvis, who was the eldest son of the family, Jacob Jarvis, had a special fondness for him.

The kinder they were to him, the more he despised his own origins.

Upon reaching adulthood, he left the Jarvis family.

After graduating from university, he started working with Isaac, and that lasted for almost a decade.

Mila had always hoped for his return, eager for him to compete with Jacob Jarvis, a notion he had no desire to entertain. The disagreement eventually led to a falling out, and they hadn’t made contact for nearly five years.

It wasn’t until Mila softened her stance that he gradually reestablished contact. But things never returned to the way they were. With his upcoming wedding, Nathan had initially planned to only inform the Jarvis family. He hadn’t expected Mila to disapprove, let alone show up in Imperial City.

Kari was surprised to learn of Nathan’s background and put down her cutlery, “So, you and the eldest son of the Jarvis family…”
