He had been watching her from the window, clearly entertained by the situation.
Charles was thrilled to see his earlier suspicion confirmed Marcus didn''t like women. From the way he was looking at the male version of Natalie, it was obvious.

Although Nathaniel was handsome and appeared refined, his slender, fragile build made it clear that he was no match for her.
Emma clenched her fists and stepped forward a few paces before pausing as Marcus''s gaze shifted toward her.
"Nath, Mr. Langleywill ride with Grandpa. We''ll take the car behind,” Emma said, her tone sharp.
Natalie forced a smile, maintaining the image of a gentle, amodating persona.
“Ms. Emma, I''m sorry, but Grandpa and I have things to discuss. Marcus didn''t even look at Emma as he spoke, i

He admitted that he did it on purpose, but he didn''t expect her to be so harsh about it. He was sure that with his actions, she might even secretly be pleased
He thought she was trying to find an opportunity to seduce him. Now that he had created a chance for them to be alone, she was ghing him the cold shoulder. Mucus lowered his gaze, watching as Natalie wiped the spot on her wrist that he had touched
