The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 312 The Sinclairs Come Begging for Medicine

Natalie escorted Marcus to the door of Goodwill Pharmacy and extended her hand. "Give it to me."

Marcus feigned ignorance. "Give you what?"

"The cup," Natalie said, tilting her chin slightly. "You've finished the water, so hand it over."

"Alright." Marcus reluctantly handed the cup to her. He had wanted to take it with him, but he had not expected Natalie to be so attentive.

"Natalie, remember to call me when you're done with work. I'll treat you to dinner," he added.

"Got it." She was already tired of Marcus's nagging.

Ever since learning she was the one who saved his life, his attitude had completely changed. He seemed ready to camp out at Goodwill Pharmacy just to repay his debt.

"Don't forget to call, okay? Don't lie to me," Marcus emphasized seriously. "My phone's turned on 24/7 and never on silent mode. I'll be waiting for your call."

"Alright, just go already!" Natalie snatched the cup and shoved Marcus out the door. For someone who used to exude that aloof 'mysterious CEO' vibe, Marcus had surely thrown all that dignity away.

Marcus opened his mouth to say more, but Natalie spun around and walked off without a second glance. Her crisp, no-nonsense exit left him standing there.

"Mr. Holden, should we head back now?" Ethan asked cautiously. He could not help but notice that Marcus was acting differently. Perhaps love was finally blooming for him.

"Yes, back to the office," Marcus said, his expression hardening again as he strode toward the car.

He had plenty of time to figure out how to improve his relationship with Natalie. Playing the 'vulnerable' card seemed to be working for now, but he wondered if it might backfire if he overused it.

As Marcus' car pulled away, a white BMW parked nearby opened its door. Ruby stepped out, her movements sneaky and suspicious.

"Ruby, what are you doing?" Julia called out from the car, her voice raspy as she eyed Ruby's strange behavior.
