The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 230 She Wasn't Going to Let Anyone Disrespect Her Upon hearing this, Lincoln also looked at Natalie. However, his gaze toward her was filled with love and encouragement, unlike the cold look he gave Emma.

Natalie instantly understood the unspoken message in Lincoln's gaze. With him by her side, she had nothing to fear.

She didn't need to worry about offending Emma or anyone else in the family daring to challenge her.

Natalie stood up and looked down at Emma with a small smile. "I'm sorry, but Cindy must go." If she was going to return to her biological family's home, she wasn't going to let anyone disrespect her.

"I'm the recently acknowledged daughter of this family," Natalie continued. "If even a helper can treatlike this, how can I retain any authority as the rightful heiress of the Walker family? Emma, you understand that, don't you?" She then took a step closer to help Emma up, fully aware of the hatred Emma held for her.

She had said she wouldn't becclose like a sister to Emma, but she wouldn't destroy Emma's position in the Walker family-as long as Emma didn't provoke her.

Firing Cindy served as a warning to Emma.

"Yes, you're right, Ms. Natalie. I didn't think it through," Emma said, forcing a smile despite the pain in her knees. "Cindy, you've gone too far. I can't defend you anymore. It would only upset Ms. Natalie." She continued, "You've worked here for years, and the Walker family has treated you well. Now that you're leaving, take care of yourself.

"It's a shame. You should've been able to retire peacefully and watchget married and have children. Yet, you couldn't control your mouth. How dare you raise your voice at Ms. Natalie? If you don't leave, who will put up with you?" Natalie quietly withdrew her hand. Olivia, who had been watching the whole scene, quickly handed her a disinfectant wipe.

"Nat, here," Olivia said.

"Thank you," Natalie replied, taking it from her and slowly wiping her hands. It was clear that Emma's apology was insincere she was only pretending to back down while still holding onto her resentment. The subtle jab at Natalie for forcing Cindy out didn't escape her notice.

"Ms. Emma," Cindy sobbed. "I'll miss you so much." "Stop, Cindy," Emma interrupted, pulling her into a hug as tears streamed down her face. "Pack your things and leave as soon as you can." Her voice cracked as she continued, "I'll miss you too! I really will, but what else can I do? I'm not my parents' real daughter, and I'm not my brothers' real sister. I've always had to rely on others, and I don't know what the future holds. I'm sorry, Cindy. I'm truly sorry." Natalie couldn't help but smirk at the spectacle. Olivia rolled her eyes and then tically pulled Natalie aside. "Nat, my poor Nat. You finally found your birth parents, and yet you're still being bullied! If your parents' family doesn't welcyou, just cwith me! "If even a helper can insult and humiliate you like this, how will you survive in the Walker family?" Olivia wailed, though her cries were nothing more than empty sobs.

She continued, "Poor Nat! You were replaced for the first 20 years, and now that you've finally cback, the person who took your place is still bullying you! "What's the point of living like this? You shouldn't have cback! If you hadn't, everything would've been fine. Now that you're here, the fake daughter is crying so much that even your brothers' hearts are breaking..." Olivia wasn't scared of Emma. She'd go so far as to crash a car into the Langley residence for Natalie, so she wasn't going to let Emma's passive-aggressive comments slide. She wouldn't be a true friend if she didn't stand up for Natalie now. Cóntent belongs to Natalie looked at Olivia in silence, thinking, "If you're going to pretend to cry, at least shed a few real tears." Lincoln, Hector, and Mason looked furious. They stepped forward and immediately called for security.

"Keep an eye on Cindy and make sure she leaves," Lincoln ordered. "Emma, if you think the Walker family isn't treating you well, then you can leave too." "Who dares to make Emma leave?" Sky interrupted as he slowly descended the stairs.

His face was pale, and he looked weak.

Sky opened his arms and caught Emma as she flung herself into his embrace.

"Sky, I heard you were punished. I'm sorry. It's all my fault," Emma said, looking at him with a tear-streaked face. "I shouldn't have gone on that trip. I shouldn't have pleaded for Cindy. I shouldn't have angered Natalie." Sky gently rubbed Emma's head. "It's not your fault. Don't blyourself." "Sky, it's my fault. Please don't let this cause trouble between you and Natalie or with Lincoln," Emma pleaded. "I'm not really your parents' daughter. I shouldn't be in this family." Natalie coldly interjected, "Since you know that, then hurry up and pack your things and leave." "Natalie!" Sky roared. "Do you even realize what you're saying?"

Natalie met Sky's gaze and smirked.

"Of course, I know. Emma said it herself. I didn't forgehen Sie's the ope who has enough self-awareness to leave for the sake of family harmony. Don't you support her decision?" She paused, then added, "Honestly, I didn't want to cback either. Now that I have, as the true heiress of the Walker family, why should I let a fake daughter like her bully me?" With a sly smile, she continued, "Sky, I won't let myself be mistreated. If Emma wants to leave, then let her. It's better for everyone, right?" Lincoln stepped in front of Natalie, shielding her. "What's this, Sky? You've already been punished. Do you want to anger Father and get punished again?"

He turned to Natalie and ruffled her hair gently. "Natalie's right. If Emma wants to leave, we should wave respect her decision. We don't want outsiders to think the Walker family is unreasonable. Don't worry. Nat. I won't let anyone make you suffer." Natalie smiled and whispered, "Well, I'm not scared of Sky either." Lincoln chuckled. "That's my girl. No wonder you're my sister."

Natalie grinned. She wouldn't let Lincoln stand up for her just to turn around and play the forgiving saint e for Emma. If Emma wanted to leave, then they should let her go. Neither she nor Lincoln would fall for Emma's little games. The will be updated first on this website.
