The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 319 Some Kind of Infectious Disease

Charlotte suddenly chuckled.

"Looks like the most pitiful ones in the Sinclair family are still Sophia and

Samantha. But, pity or not, it's a good thing the engagement was called off before any real feelings got involved."

Noah had sent the dossier to all three of them, but since they were sitting

together, they had simply read it on Natalie's phone.

With their heads huddled close, they looked quite harmonious.

Noah stood nearby, maintaining his respectful posture.

Once he saw they had finished reading, he finally spoke again, "Ms. Walker, Mr. Holden called earlier. He said to let him know once you were done as he's waiting to talk to you."

Natalie exhaled lightly and took the phone Noah handed her. The screen showed an ongoing call, 15 minutes and counting.

Marcus had been considerate enough not to interrupt while she was enjoying the gossip.

"Hello, Marcus."

She cleared her throat slightly, her tone as cool and composed as ever.

"Finished reading?"

His deep, magnetic voice flowed into her ears-smooth and rich, like the sound of a cello, a true feast for the senses.

"All done." Natalie's lips curled into a slight smirk. "You're fast."

"As long as it was useful to you." Marcus chuckled. "Sinclair Group isn't a threat. Whatever you need to do to protect your rights, just do it. You don't have to worry about them overpowering Holden Group, whether it's Ivan or anyone else."

He made his message clear-no one could challenge him.

"Natalie, give me a chance to repay my debt. But even if you don't, I'll still do it anyway."

Because when Marcus set his mind on something, not even Natalie's refusal could stop him.

"You gave me this information, which means I can do whatever I want with it, right?" Instead of responding directly to Marcus' words, Natalie changed the topic.
