The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 444 The Mentor's Return Marcus had just sent the photos when Natalie immediately called him. As soon as he picked up, her excited voice cthrough.

"Marcus, bring back all the herbs. Mr. Langton is coming back, and your mother can be saved." Her voice trembled with emotion before choking up. "He is far more skilled than I am. With him here, Laura will absolutely recover." This was the first tMarcus had heard Natalie mention her mentor. Without hesitation, he agreed, "Alright, I will let Mr. Remington know right away and bring the medicine back." He then added, "Nat, thank you. And please, thank Mr. Langton as well." "Hurry back," Natalie urged. She could barely contain her excitement. It had been years since she had seen Federrick, and she had missed him dearly.

More importantly, she had never been fully confident in handling this rare and deadly poison. Every step she had taken to treat Laura had been based on Federrick's teachings.

Now that he was returning to oversee the treatment himself, she had nothing to worry about.

Marcus ended the call and was about to speak when Jonathan interrupted him. "I heard everything. Mr. Holden. Say no more. I will pack the medicine for you right away." "Thank you, Mr. Remington. I will never forget this." Marcus' voice wavered slightly, his usual composure shaken by the sheer weight of gratitude he felt.

"Mr. Holden, I'm not doing this for nothing. I need you to look after my daughter when my wife and I are gone." As he spoke, Jonathan swiftly gathered a large wooden case for the herbs.

"I have kept these stored away for years, thinking they would go unused until the day I died. Now that they can save a life, they will finally serve their purpose." Marcus, his emotions still raw, stepped forward and silently helped him pack the herbs. By the tthey had finished, two large wooden crates were filled.

"I will have my driver bring the car around," Jonathan said, pulling out his phone. Within minutes, a sleek black vehicle pulled up in front of the estate.

"Mr. Holden, I won't keep you. You have a mother to save. But once my daughter returns, I want you to oversee the DNA test. I don't trust anyone else. I only trust you." Without hesitation, Marcus nodded. "Of course, I will handle it personally. Mr. Remington, if Sierra isn't your biological daughter, I will keep searching for her." "She is my daughter. She looks exactly the sas when she was a child. Even the birthmark on her collarbone matches. There is no mistake," Jonathan said with certainty. "The test is just to prove to Sierra that I really am her father. Now go. Your mother's life is more important right now." "Mr. Remington, I ask that you keep this matter private. My mother has suffered enough. I don't want her to face scrutiny before she even has a chance to recover," Marcus requested sincerely.

"Don't worry. I am not the type to gossip. Everwood Estate has its own rules. What you are worried about will not happen." "Thank you, Mr. Remington." Marcus thanked him again. Jonathan helped him load the medicine into the car before driving off.

Jonathan stood at the entrance, watching the vehicle disappear into the distance. Only then did he turn back toward the estate, his eyes filled with emotion. He gathered his things and prepared to head to the nursing hto bring the good news to his wife.

Skindness in life cfull circle in the most unexpected ways. He had simply answered Marcus' request for help, yet in return, he had found his long-lost daughter.

When his wife learned of this, she would surely regain her strength.

Marcus arrived at The Herbalist's Sanctuary with the crates of herbs from Jonathan. Hector had been waiting for him. Seeing Marcus and Noah carry in the crates, he immediately walked over.

"Are these the herbs?" "Yes, Mr. Remington gave them to me," Marcus confirmed. He then asked, "Hector, has anyone from my family tried to visit my mother?" "Your father cby a few times, but I turned him away," Hector replied. "Nat said that aside from you, no one from the Holden family can be trusted right now." Lowering his voice, he added, "Marcus, even if your mother was not poisoned by someone close to her, it is likely they covered for the person responsible. Nat was furious. She even confronted Sheldon about it." "I know. I've already asked Ethan to investigate Lucy Maine. I refuse to believe that everyone involved in the incident back then has simply disappeared without a trace," Marcus said, his gaze darkened.

"Neither do I. No cris perfect. If it happened, there would be evidence." Hector agreed.

He continued, "My only concern is that if your mother learns someone she trusted was responsible, she might not be able to bear it." "No, with Nat by her side, my mother will not lose hope. All these years, she fought to stay alive because she loves me." Marcus' voice wavered slightly his eyes unconsciously welling up. "Hector, my mother has always loved me." "Yes, Laura has always loved you," Hector said gently. He could see Marcus' pain and quickly reassured him. "Marcus, you can't break down now. She needs you." "I know. I won't." Marcus took a deep breath, forcing himself to steady his emotions. "Let's bring the medicine to Nat. She said her mentor is returning. Do you know anything about him?" Hector glanced at Joshua in the distance. "I spoke with Mr. Brown. Nat's mentor is an extraordinary man. He was the one who save her when the Langley family was mistreating her. He took herin and nursed her back to health for a long time.

"He taught her everything she knows about medicine. He also gave her Goodwill Pharmacy. Even Connie was assigned to her by him.

"Mr. Brown said that if it weren't for him, Nat wouldn't have survived. The Langley family would have drained her dry." At the mention of the Langleys, Hector's expression darkened. Even though their mother had forced them to kneel and beg for forgiveness, it was still not enough to erase what had been done.

"Nat's mentoris like a second father to her. I've already told my parents that her mentor will be our family's benefactor from now on. I just hope he will be willing to accept that Hector said, his voice filled with emotion.

Chapter 1369 Chapter 1369: Scarlette twisted away gracefully, her body language a silent rebellion against Kenji's advance. Her eyes lingered on his lips, studying them with deliberate intensity. "You're so skilled at kissing and cursing. I bet you excel at everything else too, don't you?" A shadow fell across Kenji's features. The youth had made him proud, perhaps too proud. "Your flattery won't swayto your whim," he replied, his voice sharp as winter frost.

"But in the videos, everyone seems to enjoy it," Scarlette countered.

"It's all an act for the camera." "Why don't you have a try?" Kenji recoiled internally at the mere suggestion. His forehead creased with disapproval. "If you're that eager, find someone else." "My back is killing me," Scarlette whimpered, her lips forming a perfect pout. "I can barely move." "Do you really want it tonight?" "Yes. When I want something, my parents never makewait until morning. I always get what I want, immediately." "I'm sleepy," Kenji declared, shutting his eyes.

But Scarlette wasn't just bold in thought—she was daring in action. Fighting through her back pain, she mounted him swiftly, positioning herself directly over his face.

Kenji's eyes flew open too late. Instinctively, his hands shot to her waist, steadying her.

Threading her fingers through his hair, Scarlette's sweet voice carried a hint of steel. "Pushaway, and you'll live to regret it!" Though muffled, Kenji's voice cut like ice. "What good are those eyes of yours? You're sitting on my nose." Scarlette let out a startled gasp. "Oh, sorry."

Her apology rang sincere, yet she remained unmoved. "Since you excel ΟΠ at everything, you must be fantastic N at holding your breath too. That nose of yours seems quite useful-I could put it to good work."

Kenji was too stifled to speak.

Perhaps desire finally overcom reason. After a brief hesitation, he surrendered to her outrageous demand. He found himself exploring with unexpected dedication. After their Christmas celebration, Kenji needed to return to Banta to rejoin his parents.

Drawn to Banta's vibrant energy, Scarlette decided to accompany him for a few days.

Before departing, Kenji made a point of visiting the Ward family's villa, promising Caden and Alicia that he'd guard Scarlette's wellbeing.

Alicia imagined their relationship was still in its innocent stages, limited to e hand-holding. "Knowing Scarlette is in your care puts my mind at ease. When she's had her fill of adventure, just call us, and her father and I will cto Banta to collect her." "Please don't trouble yourselves," Kenji assured them. "I'll personally escort Scarlette home." "That works too." Hector had heard from Joshua that Federrick was no ordinary man. The things he had given her far surpassed anything the Walker family could offer.

"He's already on his way back. Once he's here, Laura will finally be saved," Hector said.

Marcus nodded. "Yes, once he is here, my mother will recover." With that, the two carried the crates into the medical room.
