The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 281 Even An Outsider Understands Marcus took a sip from his cup before placing it down slowly. His gaze settled on Sky, and a faint mocking smile appeared on his face.

"Sky, do you know what your dear sister Emma has done?" he asked. "You had my grandpa calland Ms. Walker over. Are you planning to plead for something again?" Sky's heart tightened. Marcus' sharp eyes saw through everything before he even spoke.

"Oh, right. I heard Emma has already been transferred out of Hector's private hospital. Could it be that you can't find her and cto ask us instead?" After Hector sent the recording of Emma to the family group chat, Charlotte immediately arranged for her transfer and had her closely watched, preventing her from taking even a single step outside. Hector had even borrowed men from Marcus.

So, from beginning to end, Marcus had been well aware of everything.

After returning from Amberton, Sky had been ordered to return straight to Walker Estate. However, he had barely helped organize Natalie's welcparty, and he hadn't even shown his face.

Charlotte and William had no interest in dealing with him. After all, aside from him, Natalie had her biological parents and four brothers to support her.

But every bit of Sky's behavior during the welcparty had been noted by William and Charlotte. They were merely waiting for it to end before settling accounts with him.

Now, Sky was likely running out of options, which was why he sought out Charles to arrange a private meeting with both Natalie and Marcus.

But since Marcus had already joined forces with Natalie, why would he ever help Sky? "Sky, I suggest you listen to this first," Marcus said, smirking in disdain as he pulled out his phone and played a recording.

"If you die, Mom and Dad will belong to me, and my brothers will be mine as well. Why did you return, you bitch?" "Natalie, you bitch! Ever since you returned, Mom and Dad have only paid attention to you. I'm the eldest daughter of the Walker family! I'm the true heiress. Why do Lincoln, Hector, and the others dote on you so much? "You shouldn't have returned. If you hadn't, Marcus would still be mine. He wouldn't have broken off the engagement. I hate you! I hate you so much! Die! Just die now! "If you die, Mom and Dad will be mine. My brothers will be mine. You filthy bitch, why did you have to cback?" "You should have remained the Langley family's blood bank forever, drained until you were nothing but a dried- up corpse! You should have been deceived and used by Grace, working yourself to death in the Langley household for the rest of your miserable life!" Sky had already heard this recording once in the family group chat. Now, listening to it again, he turned to Marcus in disbelief.

"You were the one who sent this to Hector?" Marcus let out a scoffing laugh. "Oh? Should I not have? Sky, isn't Natalie your biological sister?" Sky hesitated for a moment before admitting, "Yes." "If that's the case, then after hearing the things Emma said about your sister, don't you have anything to say?" Sky didn't respond to Marcus but instead turned to look at Natalie, who had remained silent throughout.

"Nat," Sky began, "I asked you before if you wanted any compensation. I said I would give you anything. Emma didn't mean what she said, and at the time, you agreed and took Starry Brilliance. You even wore it at today's welcparty.

"You agreed back then, so why did you later have Mother go after Emma? I know what she said was wrong, but she's injured now. She needs people by her side.

"She's all alone in the hospital, while the family is celebrating your return. She's just a pitiful young woman. Why can't you forgive her this once?" "Enough." Natalie placed her cup down. "Sky, do you really think Emma is pitiful?" "She's injured how, and our parents are completely disappointed in her. Mother even made it clear that the Walker family will no longer care for her or provide her with any ver resources." Sky took a deep breath. "Lknow she shouldn't have said those things to you, and will discipline her." He continued, "But she has lived in the Walker family for 20 years, calling them Mom and Dad for 20 years, only to suddenly learn that she's not their real daughter and is being cast out. How could she possibly accept that so easily?" "If you care about her that much, then why don't you take responsibility and support her yourself?" Natalie asked.

She continued leisurely, "As for Mom taking back everything she gave Emma, I see nothing wrong with it. Everything Emma has now, wasn't it given to her by the Walker family? And the mother she calls her own, isn't she my biological mother? "I never intended to becanother Selena, but it seems Emma simply can't tolerate my existence." Natalie's expression turned coldnet.

"Whether she feels fair or not is of my none concern. She insulted me, and I didn't slap her across the face-that's only because I have self-restraint.

"Sky, letmake this very clear to you from now on, there's no place for both of us in the Walker family. It's eitheror her.

"And as for everything the Walker family has given her, she won't take a single thing with her. If you have a problem with that, take it up with our parents. You care about Emma, but they care about me. I'm not afraid of your retaliation. Try, if you dare." Natalie stood up, looking down at Sky. "Honestly, I've never been more grateful that I never accepted those gifts you tried to give me. Otherwise, I'd be in your debt, and it'd be harder to turn you down.

"Sky, with how skilled you are at moral grandstanding, you should go find a throne somewhere. Maybe let a saint step down so you can take their place.

"Natalie Walker-"

Before Sky could finish, Marcus suddenly picked up a cup of coffee and threw it directly in his face, m slamming the empty cup onto the table with a loud thud. Before Sky could react, Marcus grabbed Natalie's unfinished cup and threw that at him too, without hesitation.

"If you're not thinking clearly, then maybe this will wake you up." Marcus' deep, magnetic voice carried an icy edge. "Evenlas an outsider, I can't stand watching this. I never thought you would stoop so low. Forcing your own sister to forgive a malicious fraud. Where do you get the nerve? "Natalie is right. If you're so saintly, why bother being the eldest son of the Walker family? Go sit on the throne of ssaints in Dithoria State instead." "Marcus, this is the Walker family's business!" Sky abruptly stood up. "I chere to talk things through, and yet you both are being completely irrational." "The irrational one here is you."

Marcus also stood up, towing over Sky with an overwhelming presence. "Even an outsider like me. like meunderstands the situation. Your heard every venomous word Emma said, yet you still choose to defend her. It's truly unfortunate for Natalie to have a brother like you." Marcus' voice was cold and unyielding. "Letmake this clear, Sky-no matter how much you try to guilt-trip Natalie into forgiving Emma, I never will." His piercing gaze locked onto Sky, leaving no room for doubt he would personally see to it that justice was served for Natalie.
