The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 354

"Marcus, will you continue helping Sophia escape the Sinclair family's control?" Natalie asked, turning to look at him. "Sophia doesn't want me involved because she doesn't want to drag me into this. That's why she chose to ask you for help. Will you help her?"

"Do you want me to help her?" Marcus turned around and met her gaze. "Natalie, if you tell me to help her out, I will."

"Is this your way of repaying me for saving your life?"

"If that's the way you see it, sure."

Natalie smirked when she heard this. "Let's call it that! If you help Sophia escape from the Sinclairs, consider your debt repaid. We'll be even after this."

"That won't do." Marcus rejected it without hesitation. "If helping Sophia erases my debt to you, I won't help her."

"You—" Natalie was at a loss for words. "I'm doing this for your own good. Don't you know that?"

"I do, but I don't accept it."

Marcus stared at her deeply. "A life-saving debt can't be paid off that easily."

"How many times do you plan to repay it?"

"As many times as you need."

Natalie was speechless. She realized that it was impossible to convince Marcus.

"Let's head back."

"Alright."

Just as they were about to enter the hospital, a line of cars pulled up in front of the building. A black Maybach led the way.

The car came to a stop, and the driver got down to open the door. Ivan stepped out of the car, followed by Julia and Ruby.

Behind them, bodyguards from the Sinclair family exited the vehicles as well.

Ivan was in a rush. His clothes were disheveled, and his hair was messy. He was even wearing a pair of sandals.

As for Julia, she was elegantly dressed. However, she was covering her mouth with a handkerchief, seemingly trying to stifle a cough.

Ruby was acting suspiciously and looking around. When she saw Natalie and Marcus, she instinctively shrank back.

Julia couldn't hold it in and let out a few coughs. Wendy quickly handed her a thermal flask.

"Madam, have some warm water."

"Thank you." Julia opened the thermal flask and took a few sips. Finally, she could suppress the cough.

"Let's go," Ivan said as he led the way. As he walked past Marcus and Natalie, he stopped and glared at Natalie.

Natalie ignored him and walked in with Marcus.

Ivan snorted coldly. "Natalie, stop right there. I know you've been hiding my daughter these days. Who gave you the authority to do so?"

Ivan couldn't stand the righteous look on Natalie's face and demanded an explanation.
