The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 635

Seeing Marcus smile, the corners of Natalie's lips curled up slightly. Marcus was easily jealous but also easy to appease.

"Let's go inside," Natalie said. "Since my brothers are all here, let's not ruin the mood, okay?"

"Sure. I won't ruin the mood." Marcus looked aggrieved. "I'm well-behaved."

"Yes, yes. Mr. Holden, you're the best-behaved person." Natalie reached out, and Marcus immediately lowered his head so she could ruffle his hair.

Shawn, who was standing nearby, watched as Marcus performed that action naturally. He could tell that Natalie must have ruffled his hair quite often.

The intimate actions between them were truly enviable. However, it wasn't something he should long for.

"Alright! Let's go inside!"

"Okay."

Hand in hand, the two of them returned to the club.

Shawn remained standing where he was. When he had stepped outside earlier, he had forgotten his coat. It was already autumn in Dithoria, so the evening breeze carried a chill.

"Achoo!" Shawn suddenly sneezed. His vision blurred. As he wiped his face, he realized his cheeks were wet with tears without himself knowing.

His heart felt as though a piece had been hollowed out.

In the past, he didn't get to confess. And now, there was no chance for him to do so in the future.

This one-sided crush had ultimately come to an end.

Perhaps, Natalie would never find out when he had first met her or when he had fallen for her. To her, he had always been just a stranger.

So, what right did he have to expect her to acknowledge his feelings and respond to them? It was all just his own wishful thinking.

When Natalie and Marcus returned inside, the music had been turned off. Natalie's brothers were all seated together, while Celeste sat alone across from them.

It was clear that an interrogation was going on.

As for Olivia and Connie, they kept their distance, afraid of getting caught in the crossfire.

Natalie raised an eyebrow and walked with Marcus in tow. "Lincoln, Hector, Timothy, Mason, what are you guys doing?"

"Nat, you're here!" Celeste's eyes lit up when she saw Natalie, as if she had handed her a lifeline. "Nat, please save me. I had no idea Shawn liked you."

"Do you really not know, or are you just pretending?" Lincoln asked. "You're Nat's cousin, so you surely knew she had already registered her marriage with Marcus and that their wedding was just around the corner.

"That was why you organized this gathering and invited us here, claiming it was to celebrate her wedding. However, you insisted that Marcus couldn't come. In reality, wasn't it to create an opportunity for Shawn?"

"Lincoln, how could you accuse me like this?" Celeste cried out. "Do you think that I'm morally corrupt?"

Lincoln's tone remained cold and devoid of warmth. "Before, I wasn't sure. But after this gathering, I can confirm that you are."

"That's right. How could you do such a thing? You told us it's a private gathering with family and close friends and that we shouldn't bring Marcus. That's the only reason we agreed," Hector chimed in. "But Celeste, what you did was out of line."

"Celeste, do you really think Shawn is any match for Marcus?" Masson asked. "Do you think he's more handsome? Taller? Or even richer?"

As Marcus' biggest fan, every word that Mason spoke made Marcus feel even better.

Silently, Marcus pulled out his phone and transferred money to him. His way of showing love for Mason was straightforward—by sending money.

Mason continued praising Marcus when he suddenly heard a string of notification pings from his phone. He took it out, glanced at the screen, and his eyes widened in shock.

"Transfer of 10000 dollars received."
