The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 182

Chapter 182 She No Longer Knows Mercy


Grace choked on her words, and before she could finish, tears began streaming down her face. She reached out, wanting to hold Natalie's hand, but Natalie quietly moved her hand behind her back.

Grace's face filled with hurt, her tears falling silently. In the past, whenever she reached out, Natalie would immediately grasp her hands.

But now, though Natalie didn't show any outward rejection, her subtle avoidance was far more painful than an outright refusal.

"Mrs. Langley Senior, you can keep lying to yourself if you'd like."

When Grace didn't take the tissue, Natalie tossed it into the trash.

"When the time comes, I expect you to cooperate and hand over my things.

"Also, the losses Langley Group suffered due to Mr. Langley—whatever gaps I've filled, I expect compensation in cash from you."
