The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 309 His Life

Marcus stared at Natalie. At that moment, he wanted to approach her, but Natalie obviously had more patience for Sophia than she did for him.

Natalie avoided his gaze, unsure of how to respond to his question.

Sophia was still crying uncontrollably, while Marcus looked at Natalie with a

burning gaze. This was a situation Natalie hadn't anticipated.

Regardless, she had already started speaking up for Sophia, and if she didn't step in now, things could get worse.

"Sophia," Marcus called out. He looked at Natalie, who was still hesitating, then turned his gaze to the still-sobbing Sophia. "You've deceived me for so many years and gained so many benefits from me. Tell me, how are you going to repay me?"

Sophia, who was still crying, froze up. She looked at Marcus with swollen and reddened eyes. His gaze was deep and sharp, with a glaring threat behind it.

Marcus stared at her, then glanced at Natalie out of the corner of his eye. That was when Sophia quickly came to a realization.

She had known Marcus for many years, and having relied on his protection, she understood him quite a bit.

Sophia immediately started crying again while looking at Natalie pitifully. "Ms. Walker, please. Ask Mr. Holden to let me off! I swear, I will never deceive you all again. I will repay you two. Really.

"I'll be one of Ms. Walker's people from now on, so please just let me go this time!"

Natalie inhaled deeply and glared at Marcus. She didn't think that he would retaliate against Sophia or demand anything from her.

But given their current situation, she had to speak up.

"Then... Marcus, could you please let Ms. Sinclair off for my sake?"

Without hesitation, Marcus responded, "Sure. Natalie, my life is yours. I'll do whatever you ask."
