The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 304 She Confessed to Marcus

Natalie's gaze was extremely fierce and sharp. The pressure in her tone was so strong that Sophia couldn't help

but feel awe. She didn't even have tto think- she just nodded automatically.

"I'll remember it," Sophia promised.

"That's good. | still have other matters to take care of, so Helena will look after you. If you need anything, just tell

her directly," Natalie said.

After that, Natalie tucked Sophia in with the blanket and said nothing more before turning around and leaving

the room.

The moment she stepped out, Elijah emerged from the shadows. His heart was pounding heavily.

Oh heavens, what did he just hear? It turned out the person who had saved Marcus as a child wasn't Sophia—it

was Natalie!

For all these years, Sophia had been Marcus’ false lifesaver.

Natalie was truly wronged. She had saved Marcus multiple times, yet in the beginning, Marcus had treated her

with disdain.

This wouldn't do. Elijah had to set the record straight for Natalie!

Elijah immediately pulled out his phone and called Marcus. He knew eavesdropping was wrong, and even if he

got punished for it, he was willing to accept it.

"Hello, Mr. Holden. | have something to tell you."

Elijah lowered his voice and turned to face the wall, saying sneakily, "The person who saved you as a child

wasn't Ms. Sinclair. It was Ms. Walker! | overheard everything just now, and | even recorded it. Should | send it to

you, Mr. Holden?" On the other end of the call, Marcus was shocked. What did this mean? Sophia wasn't his

savior, and it had been Natalie all along?

"Elijah, sendthe recording," Marcus instructed.

"Yes, Mr. Holden."

After Elijah hung up, he immediately sent the recording to Marcus. Once he had done it, he sighed inwardly for

Marcus. Natalie didn't even want Sophia to tell him the truth. She clearly hated Marcus!

Marcus had repaid his gratitude to the wrong person for so many years! Elijah wondered if Marcus' brain was

even functioning properly.

Elijah tilted his head back and gazed at the sky, feeling sorrowful.

Inside the president's office at Holden Group's office building, Marcus held his phone up and listened to the

recording Elijah had sent him.

He listened to every word without missing a single detail. When the recording ended, his expression had

darkened to a terrifying degree.

Sophia had deceived him for so many years, while Natalie had known all along that he had mistaken his savior

but never once mentioned it.

At this moment, Marcus felt like a complete fool.

"Ha!" Marcus was so furious that he actually laughed out loud. He recalled how, back then, when he explained

why he had helped Sophia, Natalie had given him such a strange look.

She had known the truth but never said a word. She really didn't want to get involved with him!

Marcus deleted the recording and called Elijah, saying, "Elijah, act like you don't know anything about this. Don't

say a single thing."

"Yes, Mr. Holden," Elijah quickly responded respectfully. "Mr. Holden, do you still needto stay with Ms.

Sinclair?"

Now that he knew the truth, Elijah no longer viewed Sophia in a good light. Even if she had unavoidable

circumstances, she shouldn't have stolen someone else's credit.

"Stay. Act as if nothing happened, and do what you're supposed to," Marcus ordered, exhaling a heavy breath.

Natalie had completely surprised him. She didn't have any good feelings toward him now, so it was best if he

didn't provoke her unnecessarily.

And anyway, she needed him to play along in this act. They couldn't completely sever their relationship just yet.

Marcus had just ended the call when his phone rang again. He glanced at the screen. The caller ID showed it was

Sophia calling.

He answered with a blank expression, his tone not revealing any change in his emotions. "Hello, Sophia?"

"Marcus, | need to confess

something to you," Sophia's hoarse voice sounded through the phoned am not your savior. | lied to you. You can

take revenge onor punishhowever you want. | know | made a mistake.

"When we were kids, | just took advantage of the situation. Because | coveted your power and wanted someone

to protect me, ensuring. could have an easier tin the Sinclairs, | claimed the credit for saving you.

"Over the years, | have thought countless times about wanting to be honest with you, but | was always too

scared."

As Sophia spoke, she began to choke up. "But now, I'm not afraid anymore, Marcus. I'm not afraid."

Natalie had already said that the help others could give her couldn't compare to the help she could give herself.

So, even if she was afraid, she had to bravely take that step forward. Natalie didn't want her to tell Marcus the

truth, but Sophia couldn't get past this hurdle in her heart. She couldn't repay kindness with ingratitude and

deception.

What belonged to Natalie would be returned to her.

"Marcus, did you hear me? | was not your savior when we were kids. | lied to you. You can punishany way

you want. | know | was wrong, and | admit it now."

"Sophia, tell me, who was the one who actually savedas a child?" Marcus interrupted Sophia. In the

recording Elijah sent to him, Natalie had clearly instructed Sophia to keep up the lie.

"That..." Sophia hesitated for a moment before quickly replying firmly, "I don't know. When | saw you, you were

already lying on the beach. Marcus, | don't know who saved you."

Sophia felt a little guilty, but she had promised Natalie that she wouldn't tell Marcus it was her who saved him.

"Alright." Marcus hung up the phone without hesitation.

"Hah!"

His speechlessness caused him to sneer once more. After knowing Sophia for so long, this was the first the

realized he didn't understand her at all.

Marcus opened a drawer, took out

another phone roped 08bed

To speaific/ébi account, and

saw a message from King of Hearts.

They said, "Find the whereabouts of Wesley and Laura from Holden Group."

Marcus tapped the screen and sent a message to King of Hearts.

"Who are you? Why are you looking into Wesley and Laura?" he asked.

King of Hearts replied, "Because | am your father."

Speechless, Marcus thought the person was rude and lacked manners. He set

the phone aside and then logged into his personal email on the computer. He quickly typed on the keyboard.

Moreover, King of Hearts rarely appeared. When they did, it meant something big was about to happen.

Marcus had gone up against King of Hearts several times, but he had never been able to track them down.

That said, King of Hearts had never been able to trap him either.

He typed quickly on the keyboard, and strings of code flashed across the screen. Soon, he had locked onto the

location of King of Hearts.

Then, immediately after, his gaze darkened. King of Hearts was at... Goodwill

Pharmacy.

The next second, King of Hearts disappeared, and an image of an octopus

popped up on Marcus' screen.

The octopus proceeded to squirt a cloud of ink at his screen.
