The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 184 She Was The One Who Called Off the Engagement

Diana wanted to keep arguing with Victor, but after hearing Selena's words and glazing around, her gaze landed on Charlotte's scornful and disdainful expression. She immediately fell silent.

This was the same Charlotte who had slapped them back in Amberton. The way Natalie slapped them now was practically identical to Charlotte's.

At that moment, Diana felt the sting on her cheeks all over again.

Charlotte walked forward, making Diana instinctively shrink back in fear.

"Ha!" Charlotte let out a mocking laugh. This wretched woman-wasn't she so bold when she was draining Natalie's blood? So aggressive when she was bullying Natalie? But now, she cowered at the mere sight of her.

Charlotte stopped a few steps away from Diana, saying nothing, only looking down at the Langley family's trio with a cold, piercing gaze. Though she didn't utter a word, her expression seemed to say everything.

Diana no longer dared to cause a scene. Grabbing Selena's arm and holding on to Victor's hand, she scrambled to her feet. Without so much as a glance at the Walkers, the three of them slinked out of the hotel, defeated and humiliated.

"Honey." William approached Charlotte. "Natalie has finally seen the true colors of the Langley family. She won't feel any attachment to Grace anymore. Should we move on to the next step of our plan?"

"Of course," Charlotte said with a smile. "Natalie is too kind and soft-hearted. As her parents, it's up to us to seek justice for her! But there's no need to rush. After all, cornered dogs can be dangerous. We'll take our time and enjoy this."

William chuckled indulgently. "Alright, I'll do whatever you say."

Charlotte glanced at her phone. "Mason took Nat out shopping. Let's not bother her with minor things. We're retired parents now, aren't we? Since we have the time, we should keep ourselves active. It's better than sitting around and risking dementia, don't you think?"

"You're absolutely right, Honey," William said with a gentle smile.

If Natalie had grown up surrounded by love, she would be cheerful, lively, and full of warmth someone who wouldn't hesitate to wear bright, colorful clothes.
