The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 165 Have You Ever Done Anything To Harm Me

As she spoke, Grace walked toward Natalie.

Under the bright crystal chandeliers, Natalie stood there in her black jacket and cargo pants, her hair tied back. Her face looked indifferent, and there was not the slightest hint of a smile or joy in her eyes.

Grace's expression fell. Her eyes reddened, and tears began to fall. "Nattie, why are you looking at me like that?"

"Grandma." Natalie stepped forward, fixing her unwavering gaze on Grace. "I have something to ask you. You must answer me truthfully."

"Nattie, you look so serious. I'm scared." A hint of surprise flickered in Grace's eyes for a second. She lowered her head, wiping away her tears. She avoided meeting Natalie's gaze. "Nattie, did I do something wrong? Why do you look so serious?"

Instead of answering Grace's questions, Natalie spoke in a cold, steady voice. "Grandma, have you ever done anything to harm me? Have you ever lied to me? Please answer me honestly."

Natalie's tone was calm and chilling, her usually pretty, soulful eyes now sharp and probing.
