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?

"You're a bad omen, a disaster! The Langley family's misfortune is all because of you."

"Victor, shut up." William's expression had darkened completely by then.

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.

"Hit him." After she slapped Victor, she issued the cold, terrifying order.

She had always been elegant and composed, never getting pushed to such an extreme after all these years.

"Don't touch my husband!"

"Don't hit my father!"

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

"Stop it." Natalie's face was pale as she spoke. She took a deep breath and dug her nails into her palm. "It's my fault. It's my fault that Grandma got into two accidents."

The first accident happened when Grace was injured trying to save her, and her mental faculties were reduced to that of a six-year-old child.

The second accident was this one.

If Natalie hadn't wanted to exchange shares for Grace's guardianship rights, Grace wouldn't have been triggered and run out, leading to this.
