The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 233 Determined to Stay with the Walker family

Despite Sky repeatedly sending Natalie gifts, she always declined them. However, she happily accepted Mason's crystal ball on the first go.

When Lincoln gave her a car, she happily accepted that as well. Natalie's attitude toward Hector was also warmer and more affectionate than toward Sky.

Sky couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

Emma was a completely different story. She placed all her trust and reliance on him as her eldest brother. She would accept it with pure joy whenever he gave her a gift. She even made snacks and cooked meals, personally delivering them to his office at Walker Group.

On the other hand, Natalie had never done anything like that for him. She didn't even bother to be polite when calling him. Her tone was always distant and cold.

While holding Emma in his arms and watching her snuggle into him so trustingly, Sky felt both heartache and a growing sense that their parents and younger brothers had handled things unfairly.

"Emma, you just got back, cried for so long, and even knelt on the jackfruit shells. Your knees must be hurting. Take a bath and change your clothes. I'll come up later to apply some medicine."

"Sky, I want to see Cindy first." Emma lifted her tear-streaked face from his embrace, her voice choked with emotion. "She's cared for me for so many years -like family. Now, she's being fired and forced to leave the Walker family, the only home she's ever known. Sky, I really don't want her to go."

"I'll arrange for Cindy to stay at the Causeway Bay villa. You can visit her anytime you want."

Sky gently pinched her cheek. "Don't be sad. Cindy has worked for our family for many years. She'll receive her pension, and we've always treated her well.

"She's had free room and board, and her salary plus bonuses over the years should add up to a few million dollars."

Emma sniffled and nodded. "Yes, but that's still not enough to buy a good house.

"Sky, I'm worried that if you arrange for Cindy to stay in Causeway Bay and Lincoln or Natalie finds out, they'll be upset with you. I don't want to cause more arguments between you and them."

"You're too kindhearted, Emma." Sky's heart ached for her. "Even now, you're worrying about me offending others."
