The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 453

Chapter 453 Trust and Stance

After their conversation, a deep unease settled over Natalie. It wasn't Federrick's uncertainty that troubled her, but the fear of how much Laura would have to suffer.

Laura had endured so much for so long. She had never caused harm, and all she wanted was to be with her child. Yet, fate had been merciless, burdening her with endless suffering.

Natalie knew all too well what Laura looked like in pain. If Federrick feared she might not survive the hallucinations, then that had to be where the true agony and despair lay.

She pondered for a long while before she carefully asked, "Can I let Marcus in, Mr. Langton?

"Laura has held on all this time because the thought of overcoming her illness and reuniting with her child has been her driving force. If Marcus were here with her, I'm sure she'd have even more strength to fight through the hallucinations."

Federrick then observed Laura's condition. Though the pain was evident, her condition remained relatively stable.

Now that the herbal baths were no longer necessary, she looked just like anyone else in her clothes, except for her face which was still worryingly pallid.

At last, Federrick nodded. "Alright. Bring him in to stay with her."

"Okay, Mr. Langton."

As Natalie stepped out of the medical room, she saw Hector by the door, but there was no sign of Marcus.

"Where's Marcus, Hector?"

"He went to find Mr. Holden Senior."

Hector's face was clouded with worry. "I'm scared that Marcus and Mr. Holden Senior might end up in a fight."

"That's not going to happen, Hector. You're overthinking it."

Natalie glanced toward the herb garden nearby, pulled out her phone, and called Marcus. "Marcus? Come now. Mr. Langton and I need you to stay with Laura."

"Alright, I'll be there right away."

Hanging up the call, Marcus gazed intently at Charles. "I'm going to look after my mother, Grandpa. I hope by the time she recovers, you'll have decided where you stand."
