The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 211 An Eye for an Eye, Langleys

Walter congratulated Victor. Yet, for some reason, instead of feeling elated, Victor felt a strange sense of unease.

He quickly reassured himself. After all, every crisis Langley Group faced had been resolved by him. Now that the company was thriving with a bright future ahead, there was nothing to be anxious about.

Kevin, Jack, and the other shareholders were fools who were too blind to see its real potential. If they wanted to leave, they were free to do so.

Victor believed that under his leadership, Langley Group would rise to even greater heights. With that, the Langleys would undoubtedly become Amberton's wealthiest dynasty for generations to come.

With this thought in mind, a grin spread across Victor's face. He patted Walter on the shoulder and said, "Thank you, Mr. Watson. I'll leave the paperwork and following procedures in your hands."

Walter replied with a polite smile, "Of course, Mr. Langley. It's my duty. Here's to continued success."

"That's a given." Victor chuckled confidently. "Rest assured, under my leadership, Langley Group will only get better."

"Absolutely," Walter agreed with a touch of flattery before excusing himself to handle the rest of the formalities.

The moment Walter left the hotel, he called Natalie. "Hey, Nat. Victor has signed the papers. The shares Mr. Zeller and the others held have been transferred."

"Good," Natalie replied before ending the call.

She turned to look at Grace, who lay on the bed, clutching her chest and crying uncontrollably. Since Natalie had confronted her with the truth, Grace either outright denied everything or diverted the conversation to childhood memories.

Natalie had to admit that many of those memories showed moments when Grace had genuinely cared for her, which was why she had unquestioningly given blood transfusions to Diana all these years.

She did not want to hurt Grace and was grateful for her kindness. The truth was, deep down, she had been conditioned to believe that if she kept being obedient, her parents might finally see her worth and love her.

Nonetheless, it turned out to be a lie-everything was a lie. As Natalie listened to Grace recount the past, she felt nothing but disgust and bitterness.
