The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 125 Natalie Threatens Victor After Kevin finished speaking, Natalie, who was on the other end of the phone, chuckled in disbelief. What Kevin had told her earlier really sounded like something Selena would say.

Selena was sold off numerous times. Thus, she was emotionally resilient. She wouldn't dwell on minor issues or exhaust herself over them.

Even if she were the one at fault, she would justify her actions.

It was hard to reason with people like her because she'd act like a jerk; if someone stooped to her level, she'd escalate things to the extreme.

Sometimes, even the brave were afraid of those who had nothing to lose, which was why Kevin didn't know how to act in front of a reckless woman like Selena.

Kevin regretted it so much. Of all the people he could have messed with, why did he choose to mess with such a difficult person like Selena? That little spit really had more consequences than he had expected.

"Please, can you helpthink of a way to get out of this, Ms. Natalie? I should be enjoying my old age with dignity now, not caught up in all this trouble." Kevin uttered with remorse, "Selena is going to ruin Langley Group's reputation by causing a scene like this. Is she not afraid of affecting the company's share prices?" "She has no stake in Langley Group; of course, she's not afraid of it." Feeling troubled, Natalie rubbed her forehead.

"I'll send someone to the company. But before that, I'll have to discuss it with Grandma. Also, I'll call Selena and Mr. Langley to stop her from making a scene for now." "Thank you, Ms. Natalie. I'm counting on you for this." Kevin continued, "With Selena throwing such a huge tantrum here and Victor refusing to letleave, it's honestly pretty frightening. I've never seen such a shrew in my life before." Natalie was a little upset, but she found it amusing at the stime. Hence, she decided not to comment further.

"I'll give Victor a call now." "Okay." As soon as Natalie hung up Kevin's call, she dialed Victor's number immediately. There was a long pause after the call was connected, and then a voice cthrough.

"Hello, Mr. Langley," Natalie said in a cold voice. "You can tell Selena to stop messing around now." "How could you say that, Natalie? Selena was so humiliated that she was on the verge of a mental breakdown. She even wanted to end her life! How could you not be on your family's side, accusing Selena of making a fuss?" Natalie could hear the anger and disgust in Victor's voice as he said, "Even though you were upset at how we asked you to leave the Langleys, you shouldn't go against your sister like this." "We cut ties a long tago, Mr. Langley. I now use 'Walker' instead of 'Langley' as my last name. You're not my father, and Selena isn't my sister either." Natalie went on, "I'm giving you this order as the principal shareholder-control your daughter and put an end to this . Don't try to pull that sympathy act on me, Mr. Langley. I'm giving you an order now, not having a discussion or begging you.

"If you keep letting Selena stir things up, and it impacts the company's stock, I'll tell Grandma about it and reclaim the shares you hold." Victor's expression twisted with anger. "You think you can do that, Natalie?" "You can try and see if I can, Mr. Langley." Natalie's voice grew icier as she spoke. "Selena was the one being rude at first, and Mr. Zeller only taught her a lesson as an elder. What's wrong with that? Can't a company veteran teach a person who bypassed the formal procedures a lesson?" She continued, "You as well, Mr. Langley. I'm not done with you yet. You appointed Selena to a high-level position without following the proper channels. Do you really think the whole company belongs to you? Mr. Langley, don't maketake things too far." Victor was seething with anger upon hearing Natalie's words. Before he could retort, Natalie spoke again. "Forgivefor being frank, Mr. Langley. If you do not wish to let the public know about all the nasty stuff you and Mrs. Langley did, take Selena away now." "You!" Victor gasped. Moments later, he gritted his teeth and replied, "Okay, I'll take Selena away and stop her from messing around. As for the humiliation she received from Kevin, I'm not going to let that slide easily. He must compensate for Selena's emotional harm with the shares in his hand.

"We've raised you for 20 years, Natalie, and is this how you repay us? No matter how you put it, Selena is still your sister. How could you help someone else instead of your sister? Gosh, I raised an ungrateful person." "Quit fooling yourself, Mr. Langley. Repeating those words doesn't make them true," Natalie sneered. "You said you've raisedfor 20 years, really? Wasn't I just a tool to the family? "Do I have to remind you of the times when I almost died while transfusing blood to Diana? In this case, aren't you and Mrs. Langley the ungrateful ones here?" "Natalie, you..." Victor was going to reprimand her, but Natalie hung up the call before he could.

"Oh Natalie, Diana and Selena were right about you-you're just an ungrateful snake and a nasty little thing! You should be proud of being the one who had transfused blood to your mother."

Victor cursed under his breath in frustration. In the end, he was still afraid that Natalie would really make at the things he and Diana did public. Thus, he stepped forward and grabbed Selena, who was still crying and screaming. "Enough, Selena. Quit messing around."

Selena was struggling with all her might. However, out of everyone's sight, she whispered to Viafor, "But Dad how would I get that old man's company shares if I don't cause a scene here? There's no 'next time' if I don't do it now!"

"Natalie called to threaten me." Victor clenched his teeth furiously. "You o can't mess around here anymore, Selena. Nister, you have to act like you've fainted now, and I'll take you to the hospital. Getting her upset will only bring us trouble." Selena was reluctant to give in, but as she caught the faint impatience in Victor's gaze, she obediently feigned unconsciousness.

Shouting Selena's name, Victor carried her in his arms and left the rooftop.

Kevin and Jack, standing aside and watching, exchanged a glance before leaving the rooftop.

Meanwhile, in Dithoria, Natalie knocked on Marcus' door after hanging up the phone.

He opened the door. "Do you need anything from me?" His face was still pale, yet the handprint from the slap was much less visible now. Although Natalie had slapped him, she still showed a hint of care, giving him sointment for it.

Natalie was staring at him. Moments later, she asked hesitantly, "Can you help me, Mr. Holden?" Marcus didn't think that she'd cto him for help. "With what?" Pursing her lips, Natalie replied, "Mr. Holden, I need you to act as my boyfriend to see my grandma."
