The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 428 Spending Three Days Together

After Natalie issued the command, everyone fell silent, not even daring to breathe loudly. Once she assumed the persona of Dr. Elim and began her work, her presence became so commanding that no one could defy her.

Eventually, Connie was the first to break the silence. "Yes, I understand," she said.

Sheldon soon snapped out his daze and quickly nodded in agreement. "Rest assured, Elim. We will comply with your instructions precisely."

Marcus then picked up his phone, stating, "I'll send the document to everyone now." He immediately added Wesley and Laura to a group chat and uploaded the document there.

Natalie continued, "I'll be staying in Mrs. Holden's room on the second floor. I need to observe her for three days first, then get the necessary preparations done."

She turned her attention to Connie. "Connie, during these three days, assist Sheldon in calming Mr. Holden's nerves."

"Yes, I understand," Connie replied.

Confident in Connie's capability, Natalie then addressed Laura. "Mrs. Holden, let's head upstairs. You can go first. I want to grab something."

"Alright."

Laura remained tightly bundled up, not wanting Marcus and Charles to see her appearance and fearing she might accidentally infect them.

Laura went upstairs first. After grabbing her backpack from the third floor, Natalie quickly followed and joined her in the windowless room on the second floor. This room was equipped with a bathroom and washroom, allowing them to shower and use the toilet.

They could either have meals delivered or go out to eat together. Laura anticipated that she might suffer an attack of her illness in a day or two, possibly as soon as the next morning.

Once Natalie joined Laura in the room, Wesley knocked on the door, carrying some change of clothes and food-the clothes were for Laura, and the food was for Natalie.

"Elim, I'm counting on you," he said. "During these three days, my wife will be in a lot of pain and discomfort. If she struggles, please call me. I'll be right outside the door."
