The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 108 She Has Her Own Reasons

Before Connie could finish what she was saying, Natalie stopped in her tracks and turned around to stare at her. Her gaze looked so cold that it made Connie inexplicably shiver all over.

She had forgotten that Natalie's personality was actually a cold and aloof one.

"I'm sorry, Nath. I overstepped."

Connie didn't hesitate to apologize, but Natalie remained silent as she emanated an air of displeasure and cold indifference.

She returned to the guest room prepared for her at Holden Residence and took out her phone to call Olivia. The phone rang three times before Olivia answered. "Hey, Natalie."

"How are you, Olivia? I'm sorry for dragging you into trouble back in Amberton."

"We don't need to talk about that. As long as you're fine, that's good enough for me," Olivia replied. She was only relieved after hearing Natalie's calm and gentle voice.

She continued, "I've been worried since I didn't manage to bring you out from the Langleys' grasp, but I'm glad you're okay."

"It was my fault. I burdened you." Natalie paused, then she added, "I found people to deal with the Langleys, you know that."

"I do. The Langleys are busy dealing with their own problems now, but the people who are dealing with them haven't gone all out. It's like they're hesitating about something," Olivia replied.

"Natalie, where are you now? A man claiming to be an assistant to Walker Group's CEO brought me to Dithoria State, bringing even my parents along. They've been so kind to us that it makes me feel uneasy." Olivia spoke with a sense of nervousness. She always believed that there was no such thing as a free lunch. No one would do something good for no reason. If they did, there was definitely an ulterior motive.

Of course, this didn't apply to her and Natalie. They had been close friends since childhood, so their friendship was such that they would sacrifice for each other without hesitation.
