The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 305

Marcus stared at his screen, which had now gone dark. Then, amidst the black screen, brilliant fireworks suddenly exploded one after another.

Along with the graphics, there were the sound effects of the fireworks exploding. After the fireworks had finished exploding, the screen turned completely white, displaying several large words that read, "I am your father!!!"

The three large exclamation marks resembled laughing faces, mercilessly mocking him.

Marcus tapped on his keyboard, but the screen remained completely unresponsive. The words "I am your father" then split into countless tiny versions of themselves, spreading rapidly across the entire computer screen.

"Hah!" Marcus let out a laugh out of sheer frustration. He couldn't believe it. When he faced off against King of Hearts two years ago, they weren't this powerful.

Marcus took out a USB drive and inserted it into the computer port. Then, he quickly typed something on the keyboard.

On the screen, the words were now being devoured one by one by a small zombie with a wide-open mouth. After the zombie was done, it spat out foam, cleansing the entire screen of the fireworks and black ink.

Then, finally counterattacking, the little zombie appeared on the opponent's computer, running all over the screen while clucking like a hen and laying eggs.

The opponent seemed determined to clash with Marcus. After the zombie appeared, they sent cartoon Sunflowers and Peashooters to Marcus' screen.

Taking advantage of the distraction, Marcus quickly typed on the keyboard again and quickly pinpointed King of Hearts' current location once more. They were still at Goodwill Pharmacy.

He wanted to continue tracking, but the opponent seemed to have noticed him and suddenly cut off all traces.

Marcus removed the USB drive, grabbed the coat from beside him, and wore it. "Ethan, we're going to Goodwill Pharmacy," he said.

Ethan nodded. "Yes, Mr. Holden."

As Marcus strode out, he called Elijah. "Elijah, monitor Goodwill Pharmacy closely. Don't let a single person leave."

"I understand, Mr. Holden."

Marcus' expression darkened further. Why was King of Hearts looking into his parents?

He didn't know if King of Hearts was a man or a woman, friend or foe. His parents had been away for years, and there was no way to be certain whether they were truly safe.

If King of Hearts found their whereabouts and did something to Wesley and Laura, Marcus would be too far away to do anything about it.

Even though Wesley and Laura weren't great parents, Charles had instilled in Marcus from a young age that they were still his parents. He should listen to them and try to understand their way of thinking.

And even if he couldn't understand them, he couldn't blame them. They would always be family, and family had to stick together.

Ethan reported Marcus' schedule for the day while following him. "Mr. Holden, Ivan Sinclair has scheduled a meeting with you at 3:30 pm. There are still two hours until your appointment with him.

"The Walkers have sent you an invitation to their anniversary celebration. They hastened it to officially introduce Ms. Walker into Walker Group."

Marcus listened while quickly striding forward.

…

Meanwhile, at Goodwill Pharmacy, Natalie closed her laptop, took off her headphones, and put them away in her bag. She had a serious expression on her face, and the usual cold look in her eyes carried a hint of sharpness.

Ace of Spades, whom she had just fought against, had a style very similar to the person who had previously helped her—the one called Code Zero.
