The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 145 Natalie Does Not Want the Shares Suddenly, Grace burst into tears, and she seemed very overwhelmed.

Just then, the heart monitor beside her beeped loudly. Natalie panicked and comforted her.

"Calm down, Grandma. It's not that I don't want or trust you. I just hope that you'll get better. Once you recover, you'll be able to protect me. I won't be bullied anymore.

"Selena keeps bullying me. Grandma, don't you want to get better so you can protect me?" Though Natalie patted Grace's back to comfort her, the latter was very agitated. She pushed Natalie's hand away and glared at her with misty eyes.

"Nattie, do you wantto die? You'll only believe inafter I die, right?" "No!" Natalie felt her heart sink.

She didn't move as Grace gripped her hands tightly. Soon, red marks appeared on her pale wrist.

"You know that's not what I meant, Grandma. Why do you misunderstand me?" Just then, Grace fainted.

The doctors and nurses rushed in once Natalie pressed the call button. Breaking free from Grace's grasp, she walked out of the hospital room grimly.

Charlotte, William, and Mason were standing outside the hospital room. When they saw Natalie, they immediately approached her.

"Nat, what did Mrs. Langley Senior say to you? Did she emotionally blackmail you?" Charlotte looked at Natalie sympathetically. "You don't owe the Langleys anything, Nat. You also don't owe Mrs. Langley Senior anything." "I need stto think by myself." Natalie sucked in a deep breath and continued, "Still, I'm very sure that I don't want Langley Group's shares anymore. I won't take it, even if it goes against Grandma's wishes." "That's the right thing to do." Though William felt bad for Natalie, he admired her straightforward attitude. She made up her mind without hesitation.

Yet, she was a little too loyal.

"Don't worry, Nat. We'll help you take care of Mrs. Langley Senior. When her condition improves, we'll send her to Hector's hospital." William patted Natalie's head and added, "Mrs. Langley Senior will live the rest of her days in happiness with Hector's help." "Thank you, Father." "Nat, do you want to work in our company? If you're not willing to do so, we can give you a company so that you can work and pass the time." Natalie not only held sshares in Langley Group but also held an important position there. After realizing this, Charlotte knew she was a capable person who deeply cared about her career.

It seemed that Natalie wouldn't be happy if she played every day. So, Charlotte decided to give her a company- she wouldn't care much about Langley Group then.

"Please agree to it." Just then, Mason tugged Natalie's hand. "Our parents weren't willing to givea company to practice my skills. If you agree to it, I'll be able to work at your company once I graduate.

"Natalie, I'll have to depend on you in the future." After that, he winked at her mischievously.

However, Natalie shook her head after thinking about it deeply. "It's fine. I'll consider it after settling the issue with Langley Group's shares." "But Selena kicked up a fuss in the company you interned at previously! Now, you won't have an opportunity to intern at Amberton." As Mason spoke, he becangrier. "How dare she cup with tricks like that? Just wait. I'll get revenge for you." "Okay." Hearing that, Natalie couldn't help but smile. She waved Mason over, and the latter instantly leaned in. Though both of them reunited a short while ago, he knew what Natalie wanted him to do at a glance. "Please speak, Natalie." Natalie whispered something to Mason. The moment the latter heard that, he burst into laughter. "That's a great idea. You're so mean, Natalie! Yet, I like your attitude!" "Don't laugh so perversely." On the other hand, Charlotte smacked Mason. "Nat, you've never whispered tobefore. I want to hear your secret too!" Looking at Natalie pitifully, Charlotte wondered why her daughter was closer to Mason than she was to her. Natalie sensed Charlotte's jealousy.

"Nat....." Charlotte begged. Her gaze was filled with anticipation.

Natalie fell silent. She didn't know what to tell Charlotte about the bad things she was planning to do.

The first person she becclose to in the Walker family was Mason. As such, she trusted him more.

"Let's make this quick, Mr. Langley!" Avoiding Charlotte's gaze, Natalie looked at Victor, who was staring at her venomously.

She declared, "I'm giving Langley Group's shares to Selena." "Aren't you afraid that Mrs. Langley Senior will blyou for it once she wakes up?" Victor looked a little uneasy. He added, "She treats you better than me, her biological son.

"She wanted to give all her shares to you no matter how many times begged for it. Selena is her biological granddaughter, but she wasn't willing to give them to her. Aren't you afraid she will blyou once she wakes up?" Upon hearing that, Natalie smiled thinly at him. "Just tellwhether you want the shares or not."

After a brief pause, Victor silently looked at Grace's hospital roomalle te had previously quarreled fiercely over the shares, but he hesitated when Natalie agreed to give them to him. "Mr. Langley, why did you hesitate once I agreed to give you the shares? Are you afraid to receive them because it's problematic?" Mockery was evident in Natalie's tone. "Mr. Langley, I'll keep the shares if you don't want them. I don't have enough tto play around with you. Just tellwhat you want.

"You have one chance. Think wisely before you answer.' "1 Then, she stared at Victor, who was looking around shiftily. Although he evaded her gaze for a moment, his reaction confirmed her suspicions.

At that moment, she becextremely disheartened.

However, Natalie was still rather hopeful. Perhaps things weren't as they seemed.

"Well..." Victor hesitated and struggled to reply.

"Forget it. I'll wait for Mom to wake up first. I'll take them if she agrees to it."

Exhaling deeply, Victor seemed to make a difficult decision. "After all, you're her beloved granddaughter. If she knew that I forced you to give your shares to Selena while she was unconscious, she'd fight us. "Ultimately, she's my biological mother. I can't make her mad."
