The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 265

Natalie also never imagined that she wasn't the Langleys' biological daughter. She assumed she had been switched at birth by accident, and there were no other hidden motives.

But now, things seemed far more complicated than she had thought. However, so much time had passed. It wouldn't be easy to start investigating, so there was no rush.

"Come, I'll take you for a treatment," Olivia said, pulling Natalie out of bed. As they were about to leave, they saw Gorge leading a professional team out of the elevator.

"Ms. Natalie, Ms. Thatcher," Gorge greeted with a smile. "Mrs. Walker invited a stylist and her team to the house. From now on, Ms. Natalie will have to prepare for the welcome party."

He added, "Please let me know right away if you need anything in the future, Ms. Natalie."

"Okay. Thank you, Mr. Palmer."

The Walker residence had its own spa room. The stylist had dropped by the villa many times and was quite familiar with the layout. The team ushered Natalie and Olivia inside and immediately began a full-body treatment.

Although the scars on Natalie's body had already faded significantly, they were still visible. In the past, she always wrapped herself up tightly. But now that she was far away from the Langleys, she no longer needed to care.

She wasn't bothered even if there were some faded scars, as they would heal in time. While she was enjoying the arranged spa treatments, Marcus and Noah returned to the Helianese restaurant.

As soon as they arrived at the restaurant, Noah opened the car door and said respectfully, "Mr. Holden, Gabriel is willing to talk. He admitted that someone gave him orders.

"It was the same person who gave him the smoke to spray into Flash's mouth as well, but Gabriel had no idea who it was. He said the person sent it to him via express delivery but didn't see who gave the orders. He also gave me a phone number."

Marcus hummed in response before getting out of the car. "Take me to see him."

"Yes, Mr. Holden."

Noah led Marcus into the Helianese restaurant, but they didn't go upstairs. Instead, they headed for the back room.

He pressed a hidden button on the wall, and a secret door slid open slowly. Marcus stepped through the door first onto a corridor. After a short distance, they arrived at a small secret room.

Marcus entered the secret room, where Gabriel lay weakly on the floor. His face was bloody and battered, making him look unrecognizable.

"Wake him up," Marcus ordered as he took a seat, slowly wiping his hands with a tissue.

"Yes, Mr. Holden." Noah reached for a bucket of cold water before splashing it directly on Gabriel's head.

A shrill scream echoed throughout the secret room. Gabriel sat up on the floor in a hurry immediately.

"You're awake." Marcus' low yet chilly voice caused Gabriel to shiver instantly.

"Mr. Holden, I was wrong. I've made a big mistake." Gabriel glanced at Marcus as he kept begging. "I shouldn't have been so greedy for the money. I never should've let Flash run into your car.

He groveled at Marcus' feet. "I beg you to look the other way and let me off. Please, I beg you. I'm begging you."

"Gabriel, I'm giving you one last chance. Tell me honestly. Who gave you the orders?" Marcus stood up and crouched down to stare at Gabriel.

"It's not like I can't let you go, but I want to hear the truth. Guess what happened to the last person who tried to hurt my woman." Marcus's calm voice sounded magnetic, but he sounded like a demon to Gabriel at that moment.

"Mr. Holden, I'm really sorry. I really have no idea who it was."
