The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 730

Sophia held the sticky note that Zachary had left for her, her eyes gradually growing misty. She carefully put the note away, picked up the toothbrush already loaded with toothpaste, and brushed her teeth.

After that, she squeezed out some cleanser and washed her face.

Zachary had said he would take her to meet his parents, so she needed to dress up properly.

After freshening up in the washroom, Sophia did a light and clean makeup look. She chose a lipstick shade that suited her complexion, making her look soft and gentle.

After doing her makeup, she casually pinned up her hair, leaving a few strands to naturally fall over her chest, which made her appear even more delicate and graceful.

Taking a deep breath in front of the mirror, Sophia turned and walked out.

In the dining room, Zachary had already set breakfast on the table, though it was already noon by then.

"Sophia, come eat breakfast."

"Okay."

Sophia walked over and sat at the table.

Waiting for her was a plate of her favorite buttered pasta, a couple of light side salads, and a warm glass of milk.

"Eat a little to fill up. We're going to have a feast at my house a little later."

Zachary, mindful of his strength, gently rubbed Sophia's head, expressing his affection without messing up her hair.

"Alright."

Sophia lowered her head and started eating.

Zachary pulled out a chair and sat across from her, picking up his cutlery to eat as well.

They finished their meal quickly. Zachary told Sophia to rest on the couch while he tidied up before they left.

Sophia sat on the couch, watching Zachary, dressed in a suit and tie, do the housework. The feeling that bubbled up from within her was quite surreal.

Before long, Zachary was done. He walked over, bent down, and kissed Sophia on the forehead.

"Sophia, sit here for a bit. I'm going to see Ms. Blair."

Sophia froze. "You're going next door?"

"Yes. Since I'm taking you home to meet my parents, I need to inform Ms. Blair." Zachary smiled warmly. "I need her permission to bring you home.

"My parents are already prepared. Once you've met them, they'll come visit Ms. Blair too. They've wanted to visit Ms. Blair for a long time but were afraid you'd overthink it, so they've been waiting.

"Sophia, my parents are really nice. You don't need to worry."

Sophia took a deep breath and nodded. "Okay, I'm not worried. Let's go meet my mom together."

"Alright."

Zachary affectionately held Sophia's hand and led her out the door. Since their apartment units were just across from each other, Sophia pressed her fingerprint on the automatic lock, and the door opened.

Inside, Sierra, her parents, and Samantha were eating together. When they saw Sophia and Zachary come inside, Samantha immediately stood up.

"Sophia and Zac are here! Come sit down. I'll get the utensils for both of you."

Just as Samantha was about to fetch the utensils, Zachary quickly spoke up. "Ms. Blair, we've already eaten. I just came to tell you that I'm taking Sophia home today."

"And most importantly, my parents also prepared gifts for you. They're both very nervous, worried you might not like what they picked out. They asked me several times before, and this morning they reached a new peak."

As Zachary spoke, he pulled out his phone and showed Sophia their texts.

Seeing the chat history, Sophia's eyes turned a little misty. She had once been terrified that Zachary's family would look down on her.

But now, these messages immediately soothed her heart and made her feel secure.

Zachary was so good to her. Back then, Zane had been Ruby's boyfriend, but he never listened to Ruby, who constantly bullied Sophia.

From that alone, Sophia could tell that the Holt couple had to be good people.

"Zachary, can I ask you a question?" Sophia wiped her eyes. "Why did your mom agree to let Zane and Ruby date in the first place?"

"Because my mom lost a bet when playing poker. As part of the bet, another lady matched them up."

Zachary's tone was tinged with helplessness.

"She told him that if he dared to get Ruby pregnant, she would break his legs."

Sophia was a little stunned to hear this. "So that's how it happened!"

"Yeah, it's a bit ridiculous, but that's the truth." Zachary flashed a helpless smile. "My mom even said that Zane would be freed once the bet with that lady was over.

"But before the bet even ended, the Sinclair family got into trouble. Zane ended up getting freed early."
