The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 370 A Straightforward Marcus

Lincoln wore a bright smile, but his fists were clenched. He wasn't refraining from punching Marcus out of fear of his status or strength but because he prided

himself on his good manners.

Yes, it was because he was well-mannered.

"Marcus, when did you get so close to my sister?" he asked. "Also, don't you have work?"

"It's still early. I came to pick Nat up," Marcus answered calmly. The way he called her by her nickname sounded like he was close to her.

"Marcus, you're a busy man," Lincoln said with a slight smile. "You don't need to come all the way to pick her up. Besides, I plan to show her around Walker Group today."

"Nat and I already agreed to visit Sophia together," Marcus replied calmly,

handing the document to Lincoln. "Lincoln, please keep this for Nat. I like her, and I want to pursue her. This is my first gesture of sincerity."

"What? What did you say?" Lincoln thought he must have misheard. His eyes went wide, much like Natalie's. "Repeat what you just said!"

"I said I like Nat," Marcus said seriously. "It was my fault to break off the engagement before. Now, I want to pursue her again. I want her to like me, and then I'll propose properly."

Lincoln was stunned. He almost wanted to grab a knife and slice Marcus up.

Marcus was the one who had called off the engagement, and now he said he liked her? Who did he think he was?

"If you're angry, go ahead and hit me," Marcus offered. He could see the polite smile vanish instantly from Lincoln's face, replaced by displeasure.

Marcus already knew he had made the wrong decision in the past. He had rushed to break off the engagement, so winning her back now wouldn't be easy. But he was ready for the challenge.

After kissing Natalie last night, Marcus couldn't sleep. Every time he closed his eyes, he saw her shocked expression, looking like she had no idea how to react.

He admitted he was jealous that she once liked Tyler and Walter, but that was in the past. He hadn't been part of it, so he planned to make sure her future was filled with him.
