The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 593 What She Did Was Meaningful

Natalie's voice was calm and gentle, yet there was a quiet strength in it that left no room for doubt. When she said she was doing well, it was her way of telling

Marcus not to pity her for the pain she had once endured.

Everyone has their share of good memories or hardships. The good ones are worth remembering. The painful ones are not something to glorify. If people had a choice, no one would willingly pick suffering over happiness.

"Marcus, I'm fine. Maybe those earlier experiences were difficult, but when I think about it differently, if the Langley family hadn't mistreated me, I never would have met Mr. Langton. And without him, I wouldn't have gained so many skills or found a life with so much meaning."

To Natalie, everything she did felt meaningful. She healed the sick, accepted compensation, and gave back to society.

She designed beautiful clothes that allowed girls to embrace their love for beauty, then used the profits to help those in need.

The Herbalist's Sanctuary grew medicinal herbs, and the Goodwill Pharmacy sold them to heal others. They had built their own self-sustaining system, allowing their charitable work to flourish without end.

Natalie thought it was a good life. In fact, it felt fulfilling. It was busy and sometimes exhausting, but to her, that was still far better than wasting time in idleness.

She stayed in Marcus' arms for a while, then gently pulled away.

"Mr. Langton saw our wedding announcement. He gave me time off so I can focus on preparing for the ceremony. Once the wedding is over, he's even arranged a honeymoon trip for us. And he's also sending you a gift, which Joshua will deliver to Dithoria."

"Mr. Langton still thinks of me. I'm really lucky," he replied.

She nodded. Just the mention of Federrick brought a bright smile to her face. "Once you're in his circle, there will always be more surprises waiting for you. Marcus, meeting Mr. Langton has been the greatest blessing of my life."

"And for me, the greatest blessing has been meeting you," Marcus replied.

The two of them sat together on the couch, chatting as they took turns replying to the flood of messages they were still receiving.

For the next few days, the trending headlines in Dithoria would be dominated by the powerful union between the Holden and Walker families. The special offers and giveaways from both companies would continue for a month. The city was going to be lively for a while.

After a while, Marcus received a phone call. He leaned down and kissed Natalie lightly on the forehead. "Nat, I need to head to the office for a bit."
