Chapter 298 What Happens If She Goes to Amberton?

After Natalie whispered to William, she turned toward Marcus, who was sitting still. "Mr. Holden, it's time to rest."

"Ms. Walker, I'd like to talk to you for a moment." Marcus stood up. "Let's go to the balcony we were at earlier. The view is nice there, and the air's fresh."

"Alright."

Natalie agreed without hesitation. Their relationship was complicated

neither

fully friends nor entirely strangers. They cooperated well on certain things, though.

They made their way to the small balcony, and Mason seemed like he wanted to follow. However, Marcus turned and gave him a look-sharp and commanding. Mason stopped dead in his tracks.

"Uh... Nat, Marcus, I'm going to rest now. Don't stay up too late talking. It's been a long day."

Mason flashed a wink at Natalie, and she returned a reassuring glance. Only then did he leave.

"Mr. Holden, please sit." Natalie gestured to the chair, and Marcus sat down.

"I'll make some tea," she said, standing up.

Marcus didn't answer right away. Instead, he called out, "Noah."
