The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 469 Revenge

Marcus stayed with Laura for a long while before finally getting up to leave. "Mom, I'll have Elijah send your phone over. I've saved Mrs. Walker's contact information in it for you. You should have a good talk with her."

"Alright." Laura smiled warmly and lovingly. "Marcus, treat Nat well. Don't bully her."

"I know, Mom."

Marcus glanced toward the inner section of the pharmacy, where Natalie was still preparing medicine. His gaze softened subconsciously.

Sensing his eyes on her, Natalie looked up, and their eyes met from across the room. Both of them smiled at the same time, a warmth spreading in the air between them.

Laura quietly observed this, and her lips curled into a gentle smile. She was glad that the engagement she and Charlotte had arranged had finally come to fruition.

After Laura went to rest, Marcus and Natalie left the pharmacy.

"Let me show you around!" Natalie took a deep breath, inhaling the fresh herbal scent. "After Mr. Langton took me in, I spent almost half my time here. Many of the flowers, trees, and plants were planted by me. Do you want to see them?"

"Of course!"

"Let's go."

The Herbalist's Sanctuary was vast and had an elegant layout. The fields of medicinal herbs stretched endlessly, displaying a variety of colors and shapes, a true spectacle of flourishing beauty. The air was thick with the scent of herbs, invigorating with just a single breath.

Natalie held a deep affection for this place. As they walked, she chatted with Marcus. "When I was little, the Langley family took me for blood extractions. One time, I fainted outside. Mr. Langton found me, took me in, and cursed out everyone who had drawn my blood.

"He bathed me in medicinal baths, prepared herbal broths, and treated me with acupuncture. It took a long time to restore my health.

"When he found out I was from the Langley family, he didn't want me to go back. He wanted me to stay with him. But back then, I was foolish.
