Marcus remained silent the entire ride to the hospital, while Lincoln joyfully chatted with Natalie.
Upon reaching the hospital, Lincoln's enthusiasm for conversation hadn't waned. "Nat, after we visit Sophia, I'll take you to Walker Group and then to my entertainment company. Your good friend Olivia wants to star in a movie, right?
"I've arranged for someone to select a script for her, and filming is expected to start soon. When it does, we'll attend the launch ceremony together to support her."
"Absolutely!" Natalie responded eagerly.
Since the welcome party, Olivia had returned to work, and with both of them busy, it was hard for them to meet up. However, no matter the circumstances, they would immediately be there for each other with a quick phone call.
True friends don't necessarily interact frequently; they prioritize supporting each other during important times.
Although Natalie wasn't involved in the entertainment industry, she was aware that newcomers often faced challenges from established figures.
Even though Olivia was already a well-known model, there were others in the industry who were wealthier, more influential, and held higher status.
Natalie worried that if Olivia transitioned to film and television without support, she might face difficulties.
By attending the launch ceremony with Lincoln, they could show their backing for Olivia, signaling to the director and others that she had a powerful boss and the daughter of the Walker family supporting her.
"Ms. Walker, let's go," Marcus urged.
As Natalie and Lincoln continued their conversation, Marcus approached them, casting a brief, uninterested glance her way. "Noah just messaged. Sophia has woken up."
"Then let's move quickly. Lincoln, come on." Natalie grabbed Lincoln's arm and hurried toward the inpatient department.
Marcus trailed a step behind, watching them as they walked ahead. Lincoln was about six feet two inches, with broad shoulders and a slim waist, embodying the classic look of appearing lean in clothes yet muscular without a shirt.
Natalie stood around five feet seven inches, with a slender and elegant frame, her long, straight legs accentuating her graceful posture. Her hair was casually tied up, making her back look even more delicate and fragile.
From behind, they appeared to be a perfectly matched and visually pleasing pair. Despite knowing they were siblings, Marcus couldn't help but feel a surge of jealousy.
He longed to pull Lincoln away and have Natalie take his arm instead. However, he knew he couldn't act on this impulse.
Such an action would only earn Natalie and the Walker brothers' disdain. Having made a mistake, all he could do was strive to make amends and win back their approval.
Marcus trailed silently behind the pair. Soon enough, they reached the elevator. The hospital was already bustling with people at this hour.
Lincoln pressed the elevator button, and they waited patiently for it to arrive. When the doors opened, those inside exited first, allowing the waiting crowd to enter.
The elevator quickly filled up. Lincoln drew Natalie close, shielding her, while Marcus moved to her other side, effectively surrounding her with protection.
Both men were striking in stature, looks, and presence. They naturally drew the attention of everyone in the elevator.
Someone recognized Lincoln and eagerly approached him for a picture and autograph. Even as they requested his autograph, their eyes kept flicking to Marcus.

This one gets us readers asking for more! Excellent story, great twists......
Hope Grandpa Charles lives long enough to see Marcus and Nat's children, please. It will make him happy to see life is still worth living and that he didn't fail raising Marcus at least. Let him be happy at least in this aspect. Thanks...
Finished till 538....Waiting for more...
This really hurts. I am confused if Yvette sent a msg saying old love to Charles through Charlene. Why isnt it in her confession. Or did she actually set vivian up into sleeping with that man? And later blackmailed vivian with it till vivian commited suicide? Did Yvetty yhinks Charles would marry her after vivians death but he remained loyal. Hence her anger?...
Hope Nat can cure Marcus' mom. Looking forward to new updates. Thank you...
