The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 434

Three hours later, Hector arrived at The Herbalist Sanctuary by helicopter. As soon as he landed on the helipad, he called Marcus.

"Hey, Marcus. I'm here."

"I'll come over right away."

Marcus quickly ended the call. He had been standing anxiously outside the medical room, not knowing the situation inside.

Connie had been going in and out to change the water, while Joshua kept entering and leaving to prepare the herbs.

The only person not allowed inside was Marcus.

Aside from waiting anxiously, he had been issuing orders to search for the herbs that the Walkers didn't have.

Thanks to Joshua's prior arrangements, Hector could land inside The Herbalist's Sanctuary smoothly.

Upon hearing that Hector had arrived, Marcus rushed toward the helipad. Soon, both of them met.

"Hector, did you bring the herbs?" Marcus asked.

"Yes. But among the ones you asked for, we only have two. The other two are still missing." Hector handed the box to Marcus.

Then, he asked, "Marcus, what do you need these herbs for?"

"It's to save my mother," Marcus replied gravely. He wasn't planning to hide anything from Hector. After all, the Walkers had better connections and resources for medicinal herbs than the Holdens.

"My mother was poisoned with more than one type of Umbrahex. All these years, she and my father have been seeking treatment everywhere."

"What!" Hector was visibly shocked but quickly calmed down. "So, you've found a way to treat it, right? And these herbs are all you need?"

"You're right." Marcus closed his eyes briefly before opening them. Then, he bowed at Hector. "Hector, I'll never forget the Walker family's kindness. In the future, if your family ever needs anything, I'll do everything I can to help out."

Hector quickly helped him up. "There's no need for that. Let's focus on saving Mrs. Holden first."

Then, Hector's expression shifted as well. "I'll call my mother right away. Your parents should've told us sooner."

"Yes, but they decided not to tell anyone."

Hector held the box tightly. "Let's talk on the way."

"Okay."

Marcus and Hector chatted while walking. Soon, they arrived at the medical room.

"Marcus, where's Natalie? I haven't seen her."

"Nat is treating my mother." Before Hector's arrival, Marcus had asked Natalie if they should reveal her identity as Elim to the Walker family. She had agreed.

Since Hector was here, Natalie believed he could help.

"Hector, Nat is actually Elim."

"Huh?" Hector took a few steps before stopping abruptly. His eyes widened in disbelief. "What did you just say?"

"Nat is Elim," Marcus repeated seriously. "She's treating my mother as we speak."

Hector's eyes widened even more. His sister was Elim! His sister was actually Elim!

From then onward, if he had difficult surgeries that he couldn't handle, did it mean he could ask Natalie for help?

"Hector, snap out of it." Marcus waved his hand in front of Hector and said. "Natalie said she might need your help."

Hector finally returned to his senses. He quickly replied, "Of course, I'll help if I can. However, I thought Umbrahex only exists in movies and novels."

"I didn't expect it either," Marcus said bitterly. "All these years, my parents weren't actually traveling but seeking treatment.
