Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 46

"Natalie, now that we have the project plan, you can get lost."

Victoria tried to shoo Natalie away. Darren wanted to stop her.

But Natalie had brought up divorce. He couldn't let her think she had the upper hand; she needed to face reality.

Natalie looked at Hanley. "Hanley, was it all for this project plan? Did you lie to Mommy just now, about wanting me to come to the parent-child day?"

Hanley said with a straight face, "This is a critical moment for the collaboration between the Cross Group and the Fairchild Conglomerate. If Mommy can help, you should continue to do so and realize your value, instead of throwing a tantrum and demanding a divorce from Daddy just because you gained Mr. Fairchild's favor."

Hanley's words were formal and detached, perfectly suited for an heir but not for her son.

"I'm asking about the parent-child day."

"I already promised Auntie I'd take her, so I'm sorry."

Pain shot through Natalie's heart. She gave a resigned smile. "If you wanted this project plan, you could have just told Mommy. You didn't have to eat something you're allergic to and trick me into coming back."

"Auntie said that to achieve great things, you can't be bothered by small details. You have to be resourceful. You must be absolutely certain of success and allow no room for error."

Natalie's brow furrowed in anger. "Marie is misleading you. Don't believe her."

"Auntie isn't misleading me. She's teaching me how to be a proper heir."

Darren spoke up. "Natalie, as long as you stop making trouble, you can be in charge of the Fairchild Conglomerate project."

"What did you say? You're going to put her in charge of the project?"
