The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 136 Fear of Loss and Self-Blame

Victor's angry shouting grew louder and more intense. "My mother treated you so well in the past, and instead of repaying her, you've caused her to get into two car accidents, one after another. How many lives does she have to give for your disasters?

Mason quickly covered Natalie's ears. "Nat, don't listen to him."

Charlotte was trembling with rage. She couldn't control herself and rushed forward, slapping Victor across the face several times.

"Don't hit my father!"

Diana and Selena rushed forward, shielding Victor with their bodies, but the bodyguards didn't stop their strikes.
