The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 615

Marcus raised his brows slightly. Ever since he and Natalie got their marriage certificate, both had reduced their workload significantly, though they still had work to do.

Now that he had pushed all his responsibilities onto Wesley, Marcus was essentially free. As for Natalie, she only spent a bit of time handling things online each day. Besides that, there wasn't much else.

These days, they were living a relaxed and leisurely life, untouched by anything unpleasant. But now, because of Samuel, Natalie was angry. And if she was angry, Marcus naturally wasn't happy either.

He didn't really want to get involved in Sophia's affairs, but since his wife already had, Marcus had no choice but to get involved too. If Natalie went head-to-head with Samuel, he was worried she might get the short end of the stick.

"Alright. Don't worry, sweetheart. I'll cuss him out later," Marcus agreed without hesitation. Then, he sent Elijah a message that read, "Come here immediately. Right now."

"Yes, sir," Elijah replied.

In less than two minutes, Elijah appeared in front of them.

"Hello Mr. Marcus, Mrs. Holden, Ms. Sinclair, and Mr. Holt." Elijah greeted them respectfully. "Mr. Marcus, you called for me. What would you like me to do?"

Marcus looked behind him. "Samuel's on his way. When he gets here, cuss him out."

As soon as Elijah heard that, he knew this job was meant for him. He nodded like a pecking chicken. "Don't worry, Mr. Marcus. I guarantee I'll get it done."

Natalie was rendered speechless. Sophia and Zachary exchanged a look, both speechless too.

They had expected a stern talk, maybe a few sharp words—but sending Elijah? That was like bringing a flamethrower to a campfire.

This wasn't going to end with just hurt feelings. They might just leave Samuel traumatized. But then again, just imagining that scene was kind of satisfying.

And Elijah, a grown man nodding so earnestly, was unexpectedly kind of cute.

Not long after, Samuel arrived. His eyes swept first over Marcus, then landed on Natalie. Back in Amberton, Marcus had brought Natalie to the Remingtons' reunion banquet, so Samuel recognized her.

But Natalie's expression had been pleasant at the time. Now, it was ice-cold, like someone owed her millions of dollars.

"Marcus, Ms. Walker, hello," Samuel greeted them first, then looked at Zachary. "And this gentleman is?"

" Zachary Holt, formerly Sophia's psychologist. Now, her boyfriend," Zachary replied coolly. "Mr. Sinclair, hello."

Sophia's heart skipped a beat at Zachary's words. She looked at him. His expression was calm. Sensing his gaze, he turned and gave her a gentle smile.

"Don't worry. I'm here." Zachary reached over and ruffled her hair. He said to Samuel, "You are Sophia's brother. Technically, I should address you respectfully. But I'm sorry that I can't. I believe your character and morals are extremely questionable. I can't accept you as a brotherly figure, and neither can Sophia."

Samuel hadn't even opened his mouth before Zachary hit him with a few sharp verbal blows.

Hearing this, Elijah instantly realized that the man before them was Samuel, the target Marcus had assigned him.

"If you were Sophia's psychologist, then you should know that a psychologist is not allowed to fall in love with their patient," Samuel said coldly, eyes narrowing,

"That's why I quit," Zachary replied, equally cold. "And who are you to talk, Mr. Sinclair? A brother who never cared about his sister has no right to judge anyone."

"Exactly," Elijah cut in. "Samuel Sinclair, right? Eldest son of the Sinclair family. Always been a coward. The moment trouble hit home, you tucked your tail and ran off abroad.

"Now, Ms. Sinclair doesn't acknowledge you—and rightly so. If the Sinclair family had to acknowledge someone like you, it'd be doomed."
