The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 631

Natalie took out her phone, ready to make a call, when Samuel shouted once again, "Stop! This is between me and my wife. It's none of your business! Marcus, Natalie, I advise you to stay out of this."

Marcus raised an eyebrow. "Why are you getting so worked up? It seems like you don't actually want a divorce."

Samuel couldn't understand how things had taken such a turn. They had come to Dithoria to attend Marcus and Natalie's wedding, using the trip to also discuss collaborations and facilitate their move here.

But now, Sierra wanted to divorce him. Jonathan had even hit him. Although Melissa didn't hit him or scold him, judging by the way she looked at him, it was clear what she thought of him.

Most important among all was Sierra's sudden shift in attitude. This wasn't how things were between them.

A flicker of panic crossed Samuel's face. He had yet to seize control of Sinclair Group, and he hadn't regained entry into the Sinclair residence.

At that moment, even though he was a part of the Sinclair family, he felt he had become a hated figure.

"Marcus, Natalie, stay out of this." Samuel forced himself to suppress his anger, maintaining a rational tone. "Whether it's between me and Sophia or me and Sierra, neither of you have the standing or right to interfere."

Marcus and Natalie exchanged a glance before nodding in unison.

"You're right," Marcus said. "We shouldn't meddle in your family affairs. Sweetheart, let's go."

With that, he stood and pulled Natalie up with him. He gave a slight nod to the others inside the hospital room.

"Everyone, we'll be taking our leave," Marcus announced. "Mom, let's go."

Laura had come here with them, but she had been standing silently behind them the entire time, trying to keep a low profile.

When Laura heard Marcus calling for her, she quickly caught up with the couple.

Once they left the ward, Laura took Natalie's hand and whispered, "Nat, don't worry. Marcus will never turn into a man like Samuel. If he ever does, I'll be the first to beat him to death."

Natalie laughed. "Thank you, Mom. I trust Marcus."

Laura nodded. "Good, but don't be too trusting. Some men would transfer their assets behind their wives' backs and keep mistresses."

"Mom," Marcus said in a helpless tone. "I'm right here. Do you think it's a good idea to say that about your own son in front of Nat?"

Laura feigned ignorance. "Did I say something? I don't recall saying anything!"

Marcus shook his head in exasperation. But when he saw Laura acting that way, he felt relieved.

He had been worried that she would remain trapped in the shadows of the past, living in pain and sorrow.

But now, seeing her act playfully with even a hint of cuteness, it reassured him.

Laura was slowly returning to who she was before the illness.

"I passed Walter's contact to Sierra," Natalie said, waving her phone. "I think she might need it."

"But didn't Samuel just tell you two to stay out of it?" Laura sounded worried. "He seems to have lost his mind. He refuses to see his own faults and only blames others. People like that can be dangerous and extreme. I'm worried he might take revenge on you two."

"Don't worry. He can't do anything to us." Natalie linked arms with Laura. "Marcus and I know how to protect ourselves."

She continued, "Besides, it's not even certain whether Samuel will be able to stay in Dithoria. We don't need to get involved. Mr. Remington will handle it for sure."

Marcus added, "Not just him, but Zachary will do something as well."
