The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 606

At this moment, Marcus and Natalie were inside a bridal boutique. As they browsed through the gowns, they were also on a call with Sheldon.

"Sheldon, you want Noah to be your successor?"

"Yes, Mr. Marcus." Sheldon's voice came through the line. "I've reached retirement age long ago, but I've stayed on all these years to accompany Mr. Holden Senior.

"Now that you and Mrs. Natalie are about to get married, and with Ms. Laura and Mr. Wesley back, there's not much need for me at Holden Residence anymore. I'd like to take some time off and rest.

"But before I step away, I need to settle on a successor. I believe Noah is the most suitable. He grew up alongside you, Mr. Marcus, and knows Holden Residence inside and out. He's capable, sharp, and resourceful—excellent candidate for a butler."

Sheldon chuckled. "I watched Noah grow up, Mr. Marcus. Just give your approval, will you?"

"Alright," Marcus agreed without hesitation. "Keep him close by and gradually hand everything over to him."

"Yes, Mr. Marcus. Then we'll consider it settled."

"Yes, it's settled.

After wrapping up the call with Sheldon, Marcus put his phone away.

He and Natalie had walked a full round through the largest bridal boutique in Dithoria but hadn't found a gown they truly liked.

He had already handed over his own gown sketches to one of the world's top bridal design teams.

"Nat, see anything you like?" Marcus asked in a lowered voice when he saw Natalie pause.

She shook her head. "I've thought it over. I'll wear something I designed myself. Let's go to Nouvella Zara Bridal Boutique."

"Okay."

The two left the boutique and headed straight to Nouvelle Zara's bridal boutique in Dithoria. The store was located in the city center and had two floors. Every gown inside was a dream come true for any bride.

The gown Natalie had worn at her reunion banquet had captivated everyone at first glance—including Marcus. As soon as they entered the store, the supervisor, Thalia Scarrin, came out to greet them.

"Ms. Walker, you're here."

"Yes." Natalie waved her off. "Go on with your work. Don't mind me."

She tugged Marcus along and headed straight to where a particular gown sat inside.

It was a soft pink piece, made of lightweight, flowing fabric. The structured heart-shaped bodice caused the gauzy material to ripple like water and even appeared to look like petals blooming layer by layer.

The strapless, form-fitting design showcased the bride's elegant and fair shoulders and neckline. Sparkling diamonds were embedded into the fabric like stars scattered across the sky.

The train draped naturally, catching the light with every step. It was as if the bride was wearing an entire pink galaxy, looking graceful and ethereal like the most beautiful of fairies.

"This one," Natalie turned to Marcus. "What do you think?"

"Beautiful," Marcus replied without a second thought. "Absolutely beautiful."

He asked, "Nat, is this one of your own designs?"

"Yes." Natalie nodded. "Then, I'll try this one on."

"Okay."

She waved over a shop assistant, had the gown taken down, and headed to the fitting room.

Marcus looked at the gown again and suddenly felt that maybe his own sketches weren't good enough.

Moments later, Natalie emerged in the gown. Her skin was fair, and her figure slim. The dress fit her perfectly. The shop assistant brought over a pair of heels to match, let Natalie's hair down, styled it simply, and even touched up her makeup.

Natalie walked toward Marcus in full attire, and with each step and every smile, he found himself unable to look away. Soon, she stood in front of him. "Do I look good?"
