Chapter 240 Make an Appointment

Once Natalie entered the kitchen, Olivia followed her inside. "Nat, did you notice Emma's look when she saw Marcus and Sophia?"

Natalie nodded. "I saw it. That's why I'm giving her the opportunity."

Her nonchalant tone confirmed to Olivia that she had no interest in Marcus.

"Fair enough." Olivia wrapped her arm around Natalie's, and they stopped talking

as they entered the kitchen, where the chef and helpers were present.

In the living room, Emma smiled. "Mr. Holden, Ms. Sinclair, have a seat."

"Jaelynn, make some tea, slice some fruit, and bring some snacks," she instructed.

"Alright, Ms. Emma."

Jaelynn's attitude toward Emma remained respectful, but her title changed from "Ms. Walker" to "Ms. Emma"-a simple change that distinguished her from Natalie.

After all, Emma had only managed to stay by throwing tantrums and making a scene. The household staff couldn't express their disdain openly but secretly looked down on her.

They simply didn't dare to say it out loud. After all, offending an heiress of her status was not an option.

Emma gestured for Marcus and Sophia to sit down. Her gaze first landed on Marcus' face, and the sight of the man she longed for yet couldn't have made her heartache.

"Mr. Holden, Sophia, are you looking for Sky?"

Neither Marcus nor Sophia responded, so Emma spoke up again.

"Yes, I'm here to see Sky," Sophia finally replied. "Is he home?"
