The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 245 Marcus' Sincere Apology

"Natalie, I'm sorry," Marcus apologized again solemnly when Natalie did not respond.

Natalie blinked, stunned. His apology threw her off a little.

"I'm sorry about what happened before. I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions without knowing the full truth," Marcus added as Natalie continued blinking at him, perplexed. "I am really sorry."

The first time he came to Amberton, he overheard Natalie and Grace talking through the door. Because of this, he had wrongly perceived Natalie as a vain woman trying to seduce him and use him to get revenge on Selena and Tyler.

His impression of her was terrible from the start, so he disliked her intensely from their very first meeting.

Then, he discovered that she was the famous Elim-the very one who had saved Charles.

He had been grateful to her and reevaluated his opinion of her, until he heard Grace talking about how Natalie should try and pursue him, telling her that she should resort to other means like drugging him if she couldn't manage to win him

over.

Whatever goodwill he had just started to feel toward Natalie vanished instantly at that.

Now, after hearing Zane's firm defense of her and what Natalie had said to him earlier, he realized just how deep his prejudice and misunderstanding of her had been.

He had been wrong, so he should apologize to both Zane and Natalie.

"Natalie, will you forgive me for my past arrogance?" Marcus was clearly struggling to get the words out, but his expression was serious. He wasn't joking.

Instinctively, Natalie reached out and placed her hand against his forehead, feeling for his temperature. "No fever..." she muttered to herself.

Marcus was speechless. What, was it really that shocking that he would apologize for his mistakes?

"I am perfectly healthy, Ms. Walker, and in my right mind," he said. Though exasperated, he still sounded earnest. "I'm not apologizing to you because I'm sick."

Natalie nodded. "Okay then. If that's all you have to say, I'm going to go check on Sophia.
