The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 545

"Charles deserved to die. He really did. Charlene, now that Charles is dead, you can finally change your name," Yvette said and burst into laughter.

Charlene stepped out from the house, her expression tangled with emotions.

"Screw you." Elijah couldn't hold it any longer. He stormed forward and threw a punch straight at Yvette.

A sharp cry tore through the air.

"Grandma!"

Yvette was knocked to the ground by Elijah's punch. Charlene screamed and rushed to her side in a panic.

"Jessy," Marcus called out quietly.

Jessy immediately stepped forward with a medical kit in hand. "Yes, Mr. Holden."

She was clearly nervous as she approached and began checking Yvette's condition.

Elijah stood nearby, his tall, broad frame towering over them. That punch he threw just now could have killed Yvette if he hadn't held back.

After all, Marcus had said clearly that Yvette couldn't be allowed to die just yet. Letting her die so easily would have been too merciful.

Jessy had been personally brought there by Elijah. She had once impersonated Dr. Elim, but she was indeed a medical student. Letting her treat Yvette was the most fitting punishment.

Before coming, Jessy had already learned the truth. Lucy was her biological mother, and she knew what Lucy had gone through all those years ago.

As Jessy looked down at Yvette while tending to her wounds, she couldn't hold back. Her nails dug deep into Yvette's wrist.

"You old witch. You're the one who killed my mother." She gritted her teeth, lowering her voice to a threatening whisper. "You filthy hag. Just wait."

Only Yvette, Charlene heard her words. After she finished, Jessy quietly packed up the medical kit and stepped aside.

"Mr. Holden, I'm finished."

"Take them away," Marcus ordered as he turned and walked out.

Elijah stepped forward and grabbed both women, one in each hand, giving them no chance to react or resist.

Jessy followed behind them respectfully, carrying her medical kit.

The group walked out of the narrow alley. A car was parked by the side of the road. Marcus got in. Natalie was already inside, holding an urn in her arms.

When Marcus entered, she handed the urn with both hands. He took it in silence, carefully cradling it against his chest.

"Are you alright?" Natalie asked softly.

Just as she finished speaking, Elijah stormed past the window, dragging Yvette and Charlene, fury radiating from every step. Jessy followed at a light jog, trying to keep up.

Marcus spoke calmly. "Drive. To Luminara Park."

"Yes, sir," the driver replied.

The car started and headed toward Luminara Park, the amusement park owned by the Walker family.

Elijah threw Yvette and Charlene into the car behind them. Jessy got in as well.

The Holden family convoy rolled out in unison.

The official obituary for Charles had already been released. The funeral would be held at Luminara Park. The entire park had been cleared and closed at top speed.

A memorial hall had already been set up inside.

Those attending the ceremony passed through security in an orderly fashion, then were led to the hall by designated personnel.

A large black casket stood inside the hall. It held only Charles' clothing. His ashes would later be buried beneath the big maple tree in Holden Residence.
