The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 304 She Confessed to Marcus

Natalie's gaze was extremely fierce and sharp. The pressure in her tone was so strong that Sophia couldn't help but feel awe. She didn't even have time to think- she just nodded automatically.

"I'll remember it," Sophia promised.

"That's good. I still have other matters to take care of, so Helena will look after you. If you need anything, just tell her directly," Natalie said.

After that, Natalie tucked Sophia in with the blanket and said nothing more before turning around and leaving the room.

The moment she stepped out, Elijah emerged from the shadows. His heart was pounding heavily.

Oh heavens, what did he just hear? It turned out the person who had saved Marcus as a child wasn't Sophia—it was Natalie!

For all these years, Sophia had been Marcus' false lifesaver.

Natalie was truly wronged. She had saved Marcus multiple times, yet in the beginning, Marcus had treated her with disdain.

This wouldn't do. Elijah had to set the record straight for Natalie!

Elijah immediately pulled out his phone and called Marcus. He knew eavesdropping was wrong, and even if he got punished for it, he was willing to accept it.

"Hello, Mr. Holden. I have something to tell you."

Elijah lowered his voice and turned to face the wall, saying sneakily, "The person who saved you as a child wasn't Ms. Sinclair. It was Ms. Walker! I overheard everything just now, and I even recorded it. Should I send it to you, Mr. Holden?" On the other end of the call, Marcus was shocked. What did this mean? Sophia wasn't his savior, and it had been Natalie all along?

"Elijah, send me the recording," Marcus instructed.

"Yes, Mr. Holden."

After Elijah hung up, he immediately sent the recording to Marcus. Once he had done it, he sighed inwardly for Marcus. Natalie didn't even want Sophia to tell him the truth. She clearly hated Marcus!

Marcus had repaid his gratitude to the wrong person for so many years! Elijah wondered if Marcus' brain was even functioning properly.
