The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 413 The Jealous Marcus

Natalie's lips curved into a smile as she picked up a shrimp Marcus had just peeled and held it to his lips. "Open your mouth."

"I'm not eating. I peeled them for you."

"Hmm?" The slight drop in her tone made Marcus immediately comply and open his mouth.

"That's more like it." Natalie was instantly satisfied.

"After dinner, let's go watch a movie." She had looked up some dating guides online-eating, shopping, and watching a movie were the standard essentials for couples.

They had already eaten, next was shopping, and then a movie to wrap up their date. Once they got back, she'd pack her bags and inform her family about her trip so they wouldn't worry.

Tomorrow morning, they would head straight to Amberton.

Walter was initially supposed to come to Dithoria after finishing up the Langley Group matters, but since she was going back to investigate the truth behind the baby switch, she had told him to wait for her in Amberton instead.

Thinking of Walter, Natalie couldn't help but glance at Marcus.

The first time Marcus had kissed her, it was because she had said she liked Walter and Tyler.

They hadn't even been in a relationship back then, yet his jealousy was already that intense. If he saw Walter in Amberton, wouldn't he drown in his own jealousy?

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Marcus caught her gaze and smirked. "Is there something on my face?"

"Yeah." Natalie nodded seriously. "Good looks."

Marcus smirked. Lowering his gaze, he feigned indifference as he picked up another plate of shrimp, put on gloves, and started peeling again.

"Marcus, doesn't your restaurant offer shrimp-peeling services?"

"This is a Helianese restaurant, not a seafood joint. Of course not."

"Well, you should start offering it." Natalie scooted closer, took the shrimp from his hands, and smiled. "I can't bear to see your hands peeling shrimp."

"I'm happy to peel them for you."

"But I'm not happy about it." Natalie seriously studied his hands. His long well- defined fingers, his clean and fair skin. Every movement of his was elegant.

"We have money. Why should we do things ourselves?"

She pressed the call button in the private dining room. Within a moment, the restaurant manager entered.

"Mr. Holden, Ms. Walker."
