Chapter 872
Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 872:
As Evita walked by, Tatiana subtly moved in to overhear the conversation, only to receive a stern look from the bodyguard.
Masking her disappointment with a smile, Tatiana glanced away and then walked off.
In the hospital room, Marcus asked Evita, âDid you save my life?â
Evita looked confused.
âYes, I did. And you are?â
Marcusâs son watched Evita approvingly, noting her apparent simplicity and lack of pretense.
âThank you for saving my dad. How can I repay you?â
âI didnât help expecting something back.â
âIt was just the right thing to do,â Evita responded with calm assurance.
Impressed, Marcusâs son leaned toward his father, whispering, âIâve researched her a bit. She studied fashion design and has quite the knack, but fell on hard times and is now waiting tables. Dad, youâve been searching for an apprentice, havenât you?â
Marcus remained silent for a moment, internally torn.
He had envisioned great potential in her, but their actual meeting shifted his expectations.

Yet, her action in saving him held weight.
âIâm Marcus Vaughn. Youâve done me a great favor, and Iâm indebted to you. Please, let me know how I can repay you,â Marcus said.
Evita acted surprised briefly before answering, âI might need some time to consider thatâ¦â
Her hesitance showed a thoughtful recognition that Marcus, skilled in discerning sincerity, would not be easily deceived.
âUnderstood.â
Once Evita departed, Marcusâs son couldnât hide his admiration.
âSheâs truly remarkable, Dad!â
Marcus looked thoughtful.
âDad, you seemed so driven to meet your rescuer, yet now you appear troubled,â his son said, confused.
âI just have an indescribable sensation. Letâs leave it at that. I need to rest,â Marcus concluded, visibly disinterested.
As Evita reached the ground floor after leaving the room, she was approached by someone.
As Tatiana made her approach, Evitaâs expression tightened subtly.
âDo you need something from me?â Evita inquired, her tone detached.
