The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 113

Natalie had to focus on treating Charles, so there was no way she could return to Amberton. However, if Victor and Selena were allowed to continue their reckless behavior, Langley Group would collapse from their incompetence, even without outside interference.

Yvonne had been at Langley Group for many years and was someone Grace had personally mentored. She was loyal to both Langley Group and Natalie.

Nonetheless, as Victor's distant cousin, she could not openly challenge his decisions or criticize his actions—even if she disagreed with them. Her only option was to seek help from Natalie or Grace to step in and rein in Victor and Selena.

"Ms. Langley, if Mrs. Langley Senior saw how chaotic things have become at the company, she'd be deeply disappointed and angry," Yvonne said, her voice hushed yet urgent.

She added, "Everyone at the company knows that Mr. Langley forced you out of the Langley family, but many senior staff still respect your leadership. Even if you're not a Langley by blood, you're still the largest shareholder in Langley Group."

She pleaded, "Please come back, Ms. Langley. The company needs you."

Natalie glanced at her watch. "I won't be able to return for the next three months. Make sure that any major decisions Victor tries to make require an online meeting with the shareholders.

"I'll be calling the other shareholders shortly. If he makes another reckless move behind my back, he'll be removed from his position."

She continued decisively, "We'll appoint someone else as chairman. Langley Group is Grandma's legacy, and I won't let it fall apart because of Victor."

Yvonne breathed a small sigh of relief. She hesitated, then asked carefully, "But you really aren't coming back, Ms. Langley?"

Natalie replied firmly, "I'll attend the online meetings. If there's anything urgent at the company, notify me immediately. As for EM Legacy, I'll investigate it myself. I plan to meet with their representative soon."

Natalie suspected that Sky was the one behind EM Legacy, but she needed to confirm it.

"Understood," Yvonne said.

"And one more thing," Natalie continued, her tone as sharp and cold as ever. "I'm not a Langley anymore, so don't call me Ms. Langley. From now on, it's Ms. Walker."

"Yes, Ms. Walker," Yvonne said.

"Go ahead and inform all the shareholders. I want an online meeting in one hour."

"Yes, Ms. Walker," Yvonne agreed before hanging up and hurrying to carry out Natalie's instructions.

With that settled, Natalie prepared to use the next hour to track down Sky. Last night at the Walker residence, she had not stayed long and had only exchanged contact information with Mason. To get in touch with Sky, she would need to ask Mason for his number.

Natalie quickly dialed Mason's number. "Hey, Mason. I need to get in touch with Sky. Could you send me his number?"

"No problem," Mason replied easily. "I'll send it right over. But is there something specific you're looking for? Maybe I can help you out first."

"It's just some business matters," Natalie said, keeping her explanation brief. "Just send me the number, and that'll do."

"Sure!" Mason did not press Natalie when she avoided explaining further. After hanging up, he sent her Sky's number, and unexpectedly, transferred her some money.

Mason texted, "Take it. It's your allowance from me. I only get 2,000 dollars a month as pocket money, so don't think it's too little. I'll give you more once I start working and earning my own money."

Natalie stared at the 2,000 dollars he sent her, feeling a wave of warmth. Mason was still a student, and while the Walker family did not deprive him of material comfort, they did not exactly spoil him with unlimited funds either.

The older siblings who were already working did not receive allowances anymore, so Mason's gesture of giving her everything he had spoke volumes about how much she meant to him. She accepted the transfer and messaged him back, "Thank you, Mason."
