The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 116 His Gifts

Natalie's words carried a calm but merciless indifference. After hearing her response, Sky remained silent for a long moment.

When he finally spoke, a helpless smile touched his lips. Letting out a soft sigh, he chose not to press further.

Finally, he said, "Nat, I'll cooperate with you regarding Langley Group. "

"Alright. Thank you in advance, Sky."

As Natalie finished speaking, she turned to leave, but Sky quickly offered, "Let me give you a ride."

"There's no need, Sky. You're busy."

Glancing at her wrist, Natalie checked the time on her classic Patek Philippe women's watch, a gift from Grace for her 15th birthday.

On her 16th birthday, Grace's gift had been saving her life.

After that, Grace's birthday presents to her were always mini fruit tarts.

Grace, with the mind of a six-year-old child, only remembered the tasty and fun things.

To Natalie, no matter how rare or expensive the Walker family's gifts to her were, they could never compare to the love and care Grace had shown her.

Victor and Diana might have treated her poorly, but Grace's kindness far outweighed that. Grace had treated her even better than she did Victor, her biological son.

If the Walker family wanted to take her side by targeting Victor and Diana, Natalie had no objections.

But Langley Group was Grace's life work. And Victor, flawed as he was, was still Grace's only son by blood. For Grace's sake, Natalie couldn't bring herself to destroy Victor and his family completely.

Sky noticed Natalie's subtle movement as she raised her wrist, his eyes immediately catching sight of her watch.

"Nat, do you like Patek Philippe watches?" he asked casually.

Natalie paused for a moment, then smiled faintly, choosing not to answer. "I'm heading out now."

I'll walk you out,"
