The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 105

"I've seen the room, but I won't be staying at the Walker residence for the next three months," Natalie informed them. She took a quick glance around the bedroom on the fifth floor.

Honestly, she couldn't live in such a large room by herself.

Although the room wasn't extravagantly decorated, it exuded warmth and understated luxury with its ambiance.

Once Natalie had confirmed that Grace was safe, she would return to Holden Residence. After all, Charles' illness still required her treatment.

"Even though I'm your daughter, I've told you before that I don't want you to make a big deal out of it. It would be best if no one knows I'm the Walker family's biological daughter."

"Why, Nat?" Charlotte asked, feeling a little saddened. She had planned to host a banquet to introduce her daughter to the entirety of Dithoria State.

"There's no reason. I simply don't want to," Natalie replied indifferently. She also didn't want to explain further to Charlotte.

Although Charlotte was her biological mother, it had taken 20 years for them to know about this. Natalie also wasn't the kind of person who warmed up easily to others.

On the contrary, she was slow to warm up to someone and hard to approach. It took time for her to consider others as part of her true inner circle.

"Grandma, do you want to stay at the Walker residence or come with me?" Natalie turned around and took Grace's hand from Sky's to support her.

Grace glanced at Charlotte, Natalie, then at William and the Walker family's sons.

She liked good-looking people, whether they were men, women, or children. As long as they were beautiful, handsome, or attractive, she liked them all.

During the journey here with Charlotte, Grace was well cared for and treated with respect and thoughtfulness. These were things she had never received from her son, Victor, or her daughter-in-law, Diana.

She was an elderly woman, but because her mental capabilities were not fully matured, she subconsciously relied on whoever treated her well.

While Grace was at Cedar Hill Nursing Home, Natalie could only visit her every few days. She would accompany Grace while talking to her and showering her.

Although Sarah was meticulous in caring for her, Grace still preferred a lively atmosphere and her own freedom.

The small space in the nursing home couldn't compare to the vast estate of the Walker residence.

After a long while, Grace finally said to Natalie, "Nattie, I want to stay here."

Natalie was hesitant about the idea. Leaving Grace here would mean she eventually had to return to the Walkers.

"Don't worry, Nattie. We have already retired and will take good care of Mrs. Langley Senior," Charlotte immediately said when she saw Natalie's hesitation.

"Yeah! Nattie, don't worry. We will definitely take good care of Mrs. Langley Senior," William added.

He spoke up to persuade her. "Didn't you just say you had things to do and won't be staying at home for the next three months? This is perfect, then. We'll help care for Mrs. Langley Senior, and you can focus on your own matters without worries.

"Hector is a doctor, and the medical facilities in Dithoria State are obviously much better than in a small place like Amberton. The residence also has a small infirmary complete with emergency medical equipment.

"Of course, we do not wish any illness to befall Mrs. Langley Senior. We're just saying that the conditions here are definitely better."

Grace then pulled at Natalie's hand and softly begged, "Nattie, I want to stay here. There's a big garden and a swimming pool. It's very beautiful."

"Alright. Grandma, you stay here, and I'll come visit you every few days," Natalie agreed. The Walkers had compensated her, after all, so they wouldn't mistreat Grace either.

Natalie added, "I still have something to do. I'll take my leave first."

"Don't reveal to others that I'm the Walker family's biological daughter, even if our relationship improves." She didn't forget to remind them one more time about this issue.
