The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 444 The Mentor's Return

Marcus had just sent the photos when Natalie immediately called him. As soon as he picked up, her excited voice came through.

"Marcus, bring back all the herbs. Mr. Langton is coming back, and your mother can be saved."

Her voice trembled with emotion before choking up. "He is far more skilled than I am. With him here, Laura will absolutely recover."

This was the first time Marcus had heard Natalie mention her mentor. Without hesitation, he agreed, "Alright, I will let Mr. Remington know right away and bring the medicine back."

He then added, "Nat, thank you. And please, thank Mr. Langton as well."

"Hurry back," Natalie urged. She could barely contain her excitement. It had been years since she had seen Federrick, and she had missed him dearly.

More importantly, she had never been fully confident in handling this rare and deadly poison. Every step she had taken to treat Laura had been based on Federrick's teachings.

Now that he was returning to oversee the treatment himself, she had nothing to worry about.

Marcus ended the call and was about to speak when Jonathan interrupted him. "I heard everything. Mr. Holden. Say no more. I will pack the medicine for you right away."

"Thank you, Mr. Remington. I will never forget this." Marcus' voice wavered slightly, his usual composure shaken by the sheer weight of gratitude he felt.

"Mr. Holden, I'm not doing this for nothing. I need you to look after my daughter when my wife and I are gone."

As he spoke, Jonathan swiftly gathered a large wooden case for the herbs.

"I have kept these stored away for years, thinking they would go unused until the day I died. Now that they can save a life, they will finally serve their purpose." Marcus, his emotions still raw, stepped forward and silently helped him pack the herbs. By the time they had finished, two large wooden crates were filled.
