Chapter 134 Payback TDiana and Selena quickly followed behind Victor. The malicious glee in their eyes was hard to hide.
However, that look of schadenfreude quickly disappeared, especially considering the uncertainty of Grace's condition after the accident. They couldn't afford to look too pleased; that would make them seem ungrateful. "Natalie, you're too reckless. You allowed an outsider to take your grandmother away, and now she has been in an accident here. Even if she wasn't your biological grandmother, she has been kind to you all these years. Is this how you care for her?" Diana spoke with sarcasm. "Your grandmother was already in poor health and had scognitive issues. When she was at the nursing home, you didn't let us visit, but at least we knew she was healthy then." "Exactly," Selena added. "Natalie, I know you resentfor taking Mom and Dad's love away, so you probably feared I might take Grandma from you too, which is why you had someone take her away." Selena stood beside Diana, but her gaze was fixed on Marcus. Since she first met him in Balford, she had been unable to forget him. However, his overwhelming presence had left her too intimidated to approach him directly. "You allowed someone to take Grandma away, but at least you should have taken care of her! She had been fine at the nursing hfor all those years, but the moment someone took her away, she got into an accident. I wonder if there's skind of conspiracy behind this!" She spoke softly, blinking her eyes rapidly before they began reddening. "Mom, Dad, Grandma will be fine, right? I just got home. I didn't have tto repay Grandma's kindness. If something happens to her, I'll be heartbroken." "Shut up." Charlotte took a step forward and exchanged a glance with William. Without hesitation, William stepped up, grabbed Victor, and delivered a heavy slap across his face.
How dare Victor hit Natalie? He clearly showed no respect to William.
"Victor, Diana, and Selena, it seems the lesson I gave you that day was too light. Who gave you the audacity to harm Natalie?" Charlotte's voice was cold and unyielding.
She didn't care much for the Langley family back in Amberton, let alone now that they were in Dithoria State. William glared at Victor with an expression that could kill. "Victor, if you lay another hand on Natalie, I'll chop off your hand." Mason stepped forward and pulled Natalie behind him. He lowered his voice to reassure her. "Nat, don't be afraid. With us here, no one can bully you." He then turned to Selena. "You're Selena, right?" Selena was momentarily stunned when she saw the handsyoung man. She was about to respond shyly, but he slapped her hard across the face before she could.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had considered slapping Victor, but since William had already done so, he decided to deal with Selena- the one who had been bullying Natalie.
Mason slapped Selena again, this twith more force. The sound of the slap echoed loudly, leaving her dazed. When she regained her senses, her face twisted in anger. "How dare you hit me?" Her previously soft voice turned sharp, and her glare toward Mason could have killed him.
"I have no grievances with you. Why did you hit me?" "Why not? Do I need to ask for your permission to slap you?" Mason replied coldly, gazing at Diana and slapping her without hesitation.
The slap sent her head snapping to the side.
His gaze was ice-cold. Diana was the one who had made Natalie endure so many years of hardship.
She might be the one to spoil Selena, but the Walker family cared deeply for Natalie.
They didn't know about Natalie's existence before because they hadn't been around her. Otherwise, they wouldn't have allowed the Langley family to bully her for so long.
They hadn't even gone looking for trouble with the Langley family yet, and now the Langleys had cstraight to them, offering up the perfect opportunity. They couldn't let this chance slip by.
After all, the Langleys had practically presented their faces for them to strike-if they didn't take this opportunity to give them a proper lesson, what would be the point of them coming here? "You hit me! How dare you hit me, you bastard!" Diana, who didn't recognize Mason, immediately screamed in outrage, relying on her status.
"Men! Get in here and kill this bastard!" "Heh!" Mason sneered in disdain. "Do you think you're the only one with bodyguards? Letsee how capable your Langley family's bodyguards really are." He squared up as though about to strike, but despite Diana shouting for a long time, none of the Langley family's bodyguards appeared.
"Where are they? Where did our bodyguards o? Why didn't they follow in?" Diana turned around, looking for the bodyguards they had brought, but none had entered.
Charlotte laughed coldly. This was a hospital owned by the Holden family-there was no way Marcus would allow any bodyguards to cinside.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWilliam thought of this as well and gave a knowing cold laugh of his own.
Seeing that none of the bodyguards showed up after Diana's shouts, Mason slapped her several more times.
The sound of the slaps rang out, making the Walkers feel a bit of satisfaction.
"Natalie, you bitch, why are you standing by and letting them bully the people who raised you?? Diana had taken several slaps, and her anger exploded.
"Natalie, you're the reason Grandma's in this accident. Mom and Dad are Grandma's biological son and M daughter-in-law, and I'm her granddaughter. Not only are you refusing to explain yourself, but you also let them beat us," Selena accused. Selena pulled Diana behind her and faced Mason. She stared at him, but her words were directed at Natalie. "Natalie, aren't you afraid Grandma will never wake up? You killed Grandma, and now you're beating her only family left. Do you have no conscience?" "Marcus, please take Nat and leave for now."
Charlotte glanced at Marcus in the to distance. "It's twe get justice for her. In the past, we weren't around to past, protect her, which is why she suffered so much pain and hardship.
Since we're settling accounts today, let's do it thoroughly. "Today is the perfect day to settle the debt we left unsettled in Amberton." Her voice was as cold as ice, and her usual elegance was replaced by a ruthless sharpness. She rarely showed such a fierce side.
The Langley family had exploited Natalie for years, and that was something that needed to be reckoned with.
