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 call me and 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 came to 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 welcome party, 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 welcome party 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 come back?"
"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?"
