The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 37 Putting Marcus in a Difficult Position

Charles‘ tone was stern, forcing Marcus to comply.

“I’ll have to trouble you then, Mr. Holden,” Natalie said, knowing that refusing was pointless. She would explain to Marcus later that she didn’t need his help in finding her biological parents.

‘Grandpa Charles, it’s time to take your medicine,” she said as she took the jar from Marcus. She took a small bowl and poured the medicine into it before bringing it slowly to Charles‘ lips.

“Before I came here, Connie specifically told me that you must finish this medicine. After three days of body conditioning and two days of rest, you’ll be ready to undergo the surgery. This medicine is a bit bitter, but you’re brave, right?”

Her voice was soft, and she spoke as if she was coaxing a child. She wasn’t deliberately pretending. Ever since Grace had a car accident while saving her, she had cared for Grace, who had become more mentally frail.

Natalie had patiently attended to her to help her regain some stability. So, when it came to caring for elderly people, her soft approach came naturally.

Charles accepted the medicine. He pinched his nose and quickly drank it all in one go.

“Grandpa Charles, good job!” Natalie praised him generously, then flipped her palm to reveal a mini fruit tart. “Here’s a treat for being so brave.”

Charles burst into laughter. After a moment, he said, “That’s a trick you use on your grandmother, isn’t it?”

She froze, then realized her subconscious actions. Embarrassed, she rubbed her nose and replied, “Yes. I forgot you’re not like her.”

He took the fruit tart and unwrapped it before eating it slowly. He then turned to Marcus and said, “Marc, should learn from her.”
