The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 48 The Dark Side of Human Nature Victor was really angry. Even if he despised Natalie, Diana and Selena had provoked her first.

They had no reason to smear Natalie's name, so they had it coming when she retaliated.

Even though Natalie had taken away 20 years of Selena's life, she had grown up with them. She had lost so much blood for Diana, and when she left, he gave her 200,000, which wasn't much.

Besides, she didn't even accept it.

If the situation between Diana and Selena weren't handled properly, the Langley family would. quickly fall from its position as the wealthiest family in Amberton.

Victor and Diana were not good at business, but he was more rational. The Langley family was -doing well recently, but many people had their eyes on them.

When Diana and Selena returned hin disgrace, he told them that they had to play along with Natalie even if they didn't feel like it.

They had to get Natalie to delete the surveillance footage and pretend everything was fine. If the Langley family's reputation were ruined because of them, no one would want to cooperate with them in business anymore.

At that point, they might lose their position as the wealthiest family.

Thus, Victor hit Diana hard.

After Diana received the slap and heard his scolding, she was about to explode, but Selena suddenly pulled her hand.

"Mom, Dad is right. We've already promised him we would apologize to Natalie." Selena looked at Natalie as they argued. Natalie quietly sat there, with delicate features, her eyes gentle like a painting. She appeared as though she was completely detached from the conflict, just coldly watching everything unfold.

Selena stood up and walked to Natalie, bowing deeply. "Natalie, I'm sorry. What happened before was my fault." She bent low, her voice reluctant. “Natalie, can you forgive me? When I first returned home, I was jealous of the 20 years you spent in this family. I was petty and strongly jealous, and 1 knew I was wrong.

"Natalie, I swear I won't target you anymore. Please forgive me. On the way back, I realized I should be getting along with you instead of opposing you.

"Having an older sister who lovesis much better than having an enemy. I really know my mistake. Can you forgiveand allowto make up for it?" Clup 48 The Dark Side of Human Nature She raised her head again. The jealousy and unwillingness on her face were replaced with sincerity and pleading. "Natalie, I'm begging you." Natalie looked at her, whose face was full of sincerity, and marveled at how quickly her attitude had changed.

It was said that one shouldn't strike someone who offered a smile. Natalie's main goal wasn't to start a conflict. "Ms. Langley, Mr. Langley and Mrs. Langley only have one daughter, and that's you. I'm just an unknown illegitimate child. I don't deserve to be your sister." She added calmly, "I accept your apology. If Mr. Langley keeps his word and giveswhat my parents left behind, I'll delete all your surveillance footage." "Natalie, what my mother said before was wrong. She was just worried about me, and I apologize on her behalf." Selena's attitude had softened a lot. No longer confrontational, she handed Natalie the milk. " Natalie, have smilk to soothe your throat.

"Honestly, I was upset because Grandma treated you so well. But I've thought it over. If I do well and treat you like family, she won't have to worry so much." Her face was sincere and she sounded just as earnest. "I've decided to stop my petty thoughts instead." and get along well with you "Selena, I'm relieved you're thinking like this," Victor said, breathing a sigh of relief. "Natalie, just give Selena a chance for the sake of the 20 years we spent together." Natalie set the milk down on the coffee table, where August had just placed a bowl of spaghetti. The spaghetti and warm milk had been part of her breakfast every day when Grace was healthy. After Grace landed in trouble for saving Natalie, the older woman no longer had the chance to have that combination for breakfast.

Her heart softened when she heard August say that this breakfast was specifically made according to Grace's wishes.

Grace's kindness shouldn't go to waste, so Natalie picked up her cutleries and elegantly ate the spaghetti, barely making a sound.

After finishing, she drank the milk, one sip at a time.

"Mr. Langley, I'm done with my meal. Now, can you givewhat my parents left for me?" "Nattie, followto the study to get it. I've locked it in the safe.” Natalie stood up and followed Victor to the study Chaper The Dark Side of Human Nature He walked to the safe but didn't hurry to open if Instead, he turned to look at her. "Natalie, delete the footage of Selena first." "Okay." She took out her phone and deleted all the footage of Selena in front of Victor.

"Is it done?" "Yes, it's done." He nodded and turned to open the safe, taking out a white cloth bag. He walked toward her and raised his hand, suddenly causing a white powder to appear in front of her.

His action was too sudden, and she didn't notice in time, inhaling a large amount of the powder.

When she held her breath and swiped away the powder, Victor's face becblurry before her eyes.

"Natalie, don't blme. We owe too much to Selena," he explained, walking closer to her and shaking his hand in hand in front of her. "I know Mom favors you, but she's old, and her mind is failing. She can't protect you forever.

"No matter how good outsiders are, they can't compare to a blood-related granddaughter.can they? Natalie, don't blme. I didn't want this either. It wouldn't have cto this if you didn't force things so much." He murmured as he motioned to the door. Diana and Selena walked in.

With a thud, Natalie fell to the ground.

Selena stepped forward and kicked her in the chest. "Bitch, you wantto apologize? Dream on. Dad, Mom, leave Natalie to me! I'll make her obediently give up the old hag's shares."

"Darling, didn't Mr. Mills say he liked this bitch? Let's send her to him in exchange for the cruise ship deal You're smart, darling. You knew to En. use Mom to lower her guard. The medicine in the spaghetti and milk doesn't work fast, but this powder works in three seconds." The powder Victor had thrown at Natalie worked almost instantly.

Her vision blurred, but the pain from biting her tongue allowed her to hear the conversation of the Langley family clearly.
