The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 418 Two People Wrapped Tightly from Head to Toe

As cars weren't allowed on Scarlet Avenue, Marcus walked alongside Natalie.

They had arrived during the peak of the scarlet poppies' blooming season. With each passing breeze, petals flew about like a rain of crimson flames.

Natalie reached out, letting the red petals land in her palm, making her fair skin appear even more delicate.

Marcus also caught a handful of petals and placed them gently into her hand.

"Thank you." She smiled at him. "Let's go!"

"Alright."

"Nat, let me take a few pictures of you."

He then pulled out his phone. In the past, all the photos he had of Natalie were taken in secret. But this time, he could take them openly.

"Sure!" She found a quiet spot and stood beneath the red maple tree. He bent slightly and took several shots of her.

She wore a light gray tracksuit, and her hair was tied into a neat bun. Her figure was slender and graceful, her small, delicate face radiant against her bright smile. Her captivating eyes glimmered with amusement in the photos.

Marcus had long noticed that she didn't favor dresses. Yet, he had still prepared a whole wardrobe of them for her.

One day, she would wear them all-one by one.

She asked, "Are you done? If so, let's go."

He walked up to her. "Aren't you going to take one of me?"

"Oh, right! I'll take a few for you." She had him stand where she had just been, then took out her phone and earnestly snapped several shots.

Through the lens, his tall, well-proportioned frame stood out effortlessly. He had foregone his usual formal attire, opting for a simple T-shirt and casual pants at her request. His hair wasn't meticulously styled, but with a face that striking, he could even pull off a shaved head.

Satisfied with her photography skills, she picked the most handsome shot and set it as her phone's wallpaper. She had secretly glimpsed his phone before and found that his lock screen was a picture of her.

Since they were a couple, using each other's photos as wallpapers felt perfectly natural.
