Chapter 293 That's Just Too Much

Natalie and Marcus left the psychiatric center and returned to Walker Estate.

Natalie hadn't been gone for long. Since she left through the window and used the back paths, no one at the family gathering even noticed she'd stepped away.

When the guests didn't see her, they assumed she had gone to rest. As for Marcus, he wasn't the kind of person one could meet just because they wanted to. His absence didn't strike anyone as strange, either.

That said, people had noticed the interactions between Marcus and Natalie earlier. It was clear there was something different about the two of them. However, it wasn't the typical kind of chemistry one might expect between a man and a woman. It wasn't romantic.

The whole thing felt off. They seemed close, but their eyes gave away none of the warmth or affection that usually came with it. It was more like they were two strangers who knew each other a little too well.

When Marcus and Natalie appeared again, they didn't even get a chance to mingle before Sky showed up and dragged Natalie away.

"Natalie," he started, his voice sharp. "Do you know which hospital they took Emma to?"

Natalie pulled her wrist free from his grip, her voice calm and cutting. "Didn't you watch the news?"

Sky blinked, his expression confused.

"I assumed you'd already seen it," she continued. "Oh, and by the way, Mom told me not to call you my big brother anymore. But that feels a little rude, doesn't it? So how about I just call you Mr. Sky instead?"

Natalie's eyes lingered on Sky's face, which was twisted in frustration and worry. She knew exactly what was going on. He was panicking over Emma.
