The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 604 Their Love Remained Even After the Divorce

Marcus glanced at Wesley, who was holding a basket of freshly cut flowers. These were the flowers Laura had just chosen and picked. Wesley intended to help Laura arrange them once they were back inside, but since Laura had spoken, Wesley didn't dare to refuse.

"Yes, of course," Wesley said with a loving smile. "Marcus, tell me what you need."

Marcus smiled slightly and said, "Dad, I need you to take my place at the company for the next few days. Nat and I are going to choose wedding dresses today, then take wedding photos. After that, we'll need to make wedding arrangements."

He paused before adding, "Dad, Mom, as you know, Grandpa left a will for me. He didn't want me to mourn him. He wanted me to focus on not disappointing Nat. While he was alive, I couldn't give him the satisfaction of seeing me married with children. As a grandson, I failed him."

As Marcus spoke, his eyes reddened, but he quickly controlled his emotions and steered the conversation back on track. "Dad, can you step in at the company for a while?"

Laura's eyes also became teary. She had a soft spot for such emotional moments and couldn't hold back her tears.

She gently punched Wesley's arm. "You should agree to it!"

Wesley immediately nodded. "Alright, Marcus. I'll help you at the company."

"Thank you, Dad," Marcus said, pulling out his phone. "Ethan will assist you."

Marcus called Ethan right away. "Ethan, my father will be taking over my duties at the company. Please cooperate with him fully."

"Yes, Mr. Marcus," Ethan replied.

"I'll send you my father's contact information shortly," Marcus added.

"Understood," Ethan responded.

After ending the call, Marcus sent Wesley's contact information to Ethan. He then turned to his father and said, "Dad, I really appreciate your help during this time."
