The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 136

Victor's angry shouting grew louder and more intense. "My mother treated you so well in the past, and instead of repaying her, you've caused her to get into two car accidents, one after another. How many lives does she have to give for your disasters?

"You're a bad omen, a disaster! The Langley family's misfortune is all because of you."

"Victor, shut up." William's expression had darkened completely by then.

Mason quickly covered Natalie's ears. "Nat, don't listen to him."

Charlotte was trembling with rage. She couldn't control herself and rushed forward, slapping Victor across the face several times.

"Hit him." After she slapped Victor, she issued the cold, terrifying order.

She had always been elegant and composed, never getting pushed to such an extreme after all these years.

"Don't touch my husband!"

"Don't hit my father!"

Diana and Selena rushed forward, shielding Victor with their bodies, but the bodyguards didn't stop their strikes.

"Stop it." Natalie's face was pale as she spoke. She took a deep breath and dug her nails into her palm.

"It's my fault. It's my fault that Grandma got into two accidents."

The first accident happened when Grace was injured trying to save her, and her mental faculties were reduced to that of a six-year-old child.

The second accident was this one.

If Natalie hadn't wanted to exchange shares for Grace's guardianship rights, Grace wouldn't have been triggered and run out, leading to this.

Natalie closed her eyes, and the image of Grace being hit by a car and thrown several feet away with blood spreading across the ground flashed in her mind.

She was really scared.

If Marcus hadn't been there to handle everything quickly, she might have been thrown out and hit.

"Stop it," Natalie said again, her voice much calmer this time.

"Nat is instructing you all to stop." Charlotte quickly spoke up, and the bodyguards immediately halted.

"Remember this from now on—Natalie is the true heiress of the Walker family. Her orders are our orders," Charlotte commanded the bodyguards. "Emma is no longer the heiress of the Walker family. If both Emma and Natalie give orders, Natalie's orders take precedence.

"There's no need to listen to Emma."

"Yes, Mrs. Walker."

One of the bodyguards in charge snapped a photo of Natalie and immediately sent it to their group chat to inform everyone.

Natalie stepped forward. "Father, Mother, Mason, I want to speak with the Langleys alone."

Her gaze was calm as she looked at Victor and his family. The ties between them had always been complicated because of the shares, and now, due to Grace's sudden car accident, things escalated again.

Victor dropped his pretenses, and Diana and Selena had never hidden their hostility toward her from the start.

Given the sudden arrival of Victor's family, when Natalie called out "Father and Mother", William and Charlotte couldn't hide their surprise.

They exchanged a glance, and both saw tears in each other's eyes.

Natalie had finally acknowledged them as her parents!
