Chapter 254 Interested In What Happened To The Langleys Diana had once told Natalie that if she wanted to confront her, she should bring her own mother to do it.
Finally, Natalie had her parents to cherish her, so she could do just that.
"Victor wasn't too arrogant, but Diana and Selena were downright bold about it," Charlotte said.
Her expression turned noticeably colder as she spoke about what happened in Amberton. But soon after, a slight smile played on her lips.
"Diana threw all kinds of nasty insults. For every vile word she spat, I made Victor slap her. I told him that if he couldn't keep his wife in check, I'd be happy to do it for him. And guess what happened next?" Natalie imagined the scene and tilted her head with a smile. "Victor must have tried to bargain with you, right?" "Exactly. He toldto give Langley Group a major project. Otherwise, no matter how many people I brought with me, he wouldn't be afraid. So I gave him a project." Charlotte sneered. "Victor really is a fool. He assumed I handed him slucrative deal that could rake in tens of millions. After that, he immediately went to give Diana a piece of his mind." Natalie wasn't surprised by this outcome. Victor was incompetent and conceited, always thinking himself quite capable.
Now that he had becthe one in charge of Langley Group, he couldn't wait to prove himself in front of Grace, Kevin, and those old shareholders who sold off their shares. He would latch onto any bait dangled in front of him. "Mom, I'd like to hear more details," Natalie said, curling her lips in a slight smile. She was rather interested in what had happened with the Langleys in Amberton.
"Sure," Charlotte replied. Noticing how curious her daughter was, she beceager to share.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter arriving in Amberton with her people, Charlotte headed straight to the hospital to see Grace.
Grace, who was sitting on the bed, wore reading glasses and was looking at something on a laptop in front of her.
"Hello, Mrs. Langley Senior. We meet again." Charlotte entered the ward, greeting Grace with a polite smile. "You're sick and still working so hard. That can't be easy." Upon hearing this, Grace immediately snapped her laptop shut and handed it to Victor, who stood beside her. She looked at Charlotte with a less-than-pleased expression.
"Mrs. Walker, did you calone?" Grace asked, craning her neck to look behind Charlotte.
"Yes, I'm alone. Don't bother looking for Natalie. She didn't come," Charlotte said. She moved closer and sat down by the bed. "Mrs. Langley Senior, Diana is still bullying Natalie, and I'm here to make things right.
"She openly supports and even encourages Selena's harassment of Natalie. She even said that whatever hardships Selena has faced, Natalie should go through them too. You're aware of Diana's words, aren't you? "Selena has her mother protecting her. Before, I didn't know Natalie was part of your family, but now that I do, I'll do the same. Diana protects her daughter, and I will protect mine.
"I cto the hospital for two reasons. First, to visit you. Second, to inform you I'd rather you not interfere with whatever happens betweenand Diana. Otherwise, I'm afraid you might get hurt by accident." Charlotte smiled gently. Her tone was calm, but anyone who wasn't deaf or dull-witted could detect the threat behind her words.
"In the past, Natalie toldyou were the one who cared for her the most in the Langley family. Since you love her so much, I'm sure you wouldn't have let Diana bully her, right? "You even chose to give your shares to Natalie instead of your own granddaughter. That kind of kindness is really touching.
"Of course, we're not unreasonable. Natalie is thoughtful too. As soon as she found out your real granddaughter had returned, she immediately gave the shares back to Selena. My daughter really is incredibly kind." The more Charlotte spoke, the darker Grace's expression grew. She had given those shares to Natalie, but not so Natalie could simply take them and do nothing.
Now that Selena had them, it felt like handing everything over to an ignorant shrew.
Even at her age and stuck in the hospital, Grace still had to clean up Victor's mess.
She thought back to when Natalie was around. Back then, she lived comfortably in the nursing hNatalie arranged.
The staff looked after her and the bodyguards protected her. She spent her days watching s and pretending to be senile. Life couldn't have been better.
Even if Victor and Diana held a grudge against her, they couldn't bother her because of Natalie's protection.
The more Grace thought about it, the worse she felt. She grew even angrier at Victor for posting Natalie's information on that family search network without asking her first.
What she resented even more was the person who had sent Natalie that video. She couldn't figure out that video who they were or how they had footage of Natalie's blood being drawn as a child, along with a clip of her and Victor talking outside.

And now, Charlotte had cto Amberton again, but she was no longer treating her with the spoliteness and respect as before.
"Mrs. Langley Senior, take care. I just stopped by to see you, but now I'll be heading over to visit Diana," Charlotte said.
"Oh, right. William and I are hosting a welcparty for Natalie, and we'd love to invite your whole family," she added, placing the invitation letter on the table before standing up. "You're Natalie's dearest grandmother; she'd be so happy to see you there." With that, Charlotte ignored the fury that clouded Grace's face. She left the ward with her people.
The moment Charlotte walked out, Grace turned to Victor and said, "Go m after Charlotte. Find out what she's Fote.
up to We need to stand united now that Natalie is no longer part of our family. We can't let outsiders look down on us." "Alright, I'll go right away." Victor quickly followed Charlotte out. As soon as he reached the corridor, he realized she hadn't gone far. Clearly, she was waiting for him.
"Bring Mr. Langley here," Charlotte said coldly, her gaze as icy as winter as she stared at Victor.
Before Victor could even think about running, the private bodyguards closed in. They grabbed him by both arms and hauled him before Charlotte.
"Mrs. Walker." "Mr. Langley, let's head over to your house for a proper chat." "What?" "Of course, this isn't a request. It's an order."
