The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 98

Chapter 98 Sending Emma Away If She Doesn’t Like Her 

“Yes, Nattie, we’ve been searching for you ever since we found out about your existence,” Charlotte said, her voice choking up. 

Her eyes once again reddened uncontrollably as she added, “I know I’ve done some things wrong, that I’ve used the wrong approach, but my love for you is real.” “Natalie, why don’t you do a DNA test to see if you’re related to the Walkers?” Emma chimed in again. “Regardless of the results, Mom will be happy.” 

Natalie glanced at Emma with a faint look. The words sounded harmless, but they carried an insinuation, suggesting she might not necessarily be related to the Walkers. Now that she kept refusing, it made her look as if she had something to hide. 

She curved her lips slightly and decisively pulled a few strands of hair from her head. “Ms. Walker, you’re right. I should do a DNA test. The same goes to you. In case I’m not Mrs. Walker’s biological daughter, and you turn out to be one, then this misunderstanding should be resolved properly.” 

She then handed the strands of hair to Charlotte. “Mrs. Walker, here you go.” 

Charlotte hurriedly and carefully took the strands of hair she handed over before turning to look at Emma. “Emma, Nattie is right. You should give me some of your hair as well.” 

Emma nodded. “Okay, Mom.” 

She then pulled a few strands from her own head. 

“But wouldn’t that risk mixing them up?” Emma handed the hair to Charlotte, watching as she held the strands separately in her palms. “Mom, maybe you should hand mine to 

Gorge.” 

“It won’t get mixed up,” Charlotte replied without hesitation. She held onto both sets of hair while looking at Natalie with a loving smile. “Nattie, let me take you to see Grace now.” 

“Emma, you should be feeling down after what happened. Go back to rest first. I’ll call you again after I get the DNA test results.” 

It was obvious that she didn’t want Emma to be there when she took Natalie to see Grace. 

Emma nodded obediently. “Sure, Mom. I’ll go and rest first. Natalie, please just stay here before the result comes out. 

“I have five brothers but no sisters. I’ve always wished for an older or younger sister. Would you please stay here?” 

She pleaded with Natalie, but Natalie just curled her lips slightly and said, “Ms. Walker, your status is 

too distinguished. I wouldn’t dare to overreach.” 

Emma replied with reddened eyes. “Please don’t say that. In fact, I’m not related to the Walkers. I’ll always be grateful and open–minded with whatever the outcome is.” 

“Emma, go and rest,” Charlotte said in a lower voice. The more Emma talked, the longer things would be dragged on. 

Her words didn’t sound right if one were to think deeper. They didn’t tell Emma about the truth before this to avoid her from thinking too much. 

Now that Natalie was here, Charlotte didn’t mention anything about letting Emma stay or leave. However, Emma kept trying to please Natalie. 

Emma looked at Charlotte in disbelief and only regained her senses after a while. She tried to hold back her tears as she sniffed while saying, “Mommy, don’t be angry. I’ll go back to my room right away. 

“I’m sorry for not behaving well today. My words might not be pleasant to hear as I’m still recovering from my heartbreak. Please don’t mind me if I’ve offended you.” 

After that, she nodded at Charlotte and Natalie before saying, “I’ll take my leave now. It’s my fault if I’ve upset you.” 

After that, she turned and hurried upstairs. Yet, her gaze grew completely icy at the brief moment she turned around. Charlotte’s attitude toward her changed as soon as Natalie was back. 

In the past, she had never spoken harshly to her, not even once. But now, she had outright scolded her. 

She dug her nails into her palms. Even if she wasn’t the biological daughter, she wouldn’t let Natalie successfully stay in the Walker residence. Otherwise, she wouldn’t let her live a good life. 

She could pretend to be nice to Natalie since that was what Charlotte wanted to see. 

Charlotte’s expression became better after Emma went upstairs. “Nattie, I’ll take you to Grace’s room now.” 

“Then please lead the way, Mrs. Walker.” 

“No problem.” 

She led Natalie to one of the guest rooms, gently opened the door, and ushered her in. 

The guest room was laid with a thick carpet, and all the furniture was wrapped in protective padding. The walls were painted in bright, cheerful colors that children would like. 

Everywhere in the room was filled with stuffed animals and other toys girls would enjoy, along with some fruits and snacks placed neatly on the table. On the nightstand, a big panda plushie sat on one side. 

“On the way here, I had a long chat with Grace. She told me how she wanted the room set up, so I asked your father to get it ready,” Charlotte said, lowering her voice so as not to wake Grace. 

“Nattie, if you don’t like Emma, we can send her away.” 

Natalie was surprised by the offer but quickly declined. “That’s unnecessary. You’ve taken care of Ms. Walker for 20 years, so you must have deep feelings for her. 

“You’re not like Diana. You don’t need to do such a thing for my sake. I was chased out of the Langley residence, but it doesn’t mean that I want the same thing to happen to Ms. Walker.” 

She thought it was better to make things clear beforehand. “I don’t want your relationship with Ms. Walker to be ruined because of me.”
