The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 236 Recalling a Secret

As the elevator doors shut, Natalie furrowed her brows, cutting off Emma's venomous gaze from view.

Olivia had noticed that look as well, and her expression darkened. "Natalie, that Emma is clearly trouble."

"I know." Natalie relaxed her brows slightly. "That's exactly why she needs to stay. She's lived in the Walker family for 20 years, always carrying the heiress title. Behind the scenes, she's built her own network of connections.

"Emma isn't just obsessive-she's completely unhinged. But most importantly, she's ruthless with herself. And people who are ruthless with themselves are even more ruthless with others."

Olivia nodded. "I see that now. But since you're keeping her around, you must also protect yourself. As for that idiot Sky, I have a feeling Emma is going to be the death of him."

"Well, they are willing to help each other out. All we can do is respect their choices, give them our blessings, and hope they stay tied together."

As they chatted, the elevator reached the fifth floor.

"I like Lincoln. The way he protects you it's seriously attractive." Olivia's eyes sparkled as she spoke. "Nat, I finally get why you had me leave Sky's company and join Lincoln's."

"Lincoln will end up at Walker Group eventually. But having you come to his company was my own selfish decision. After all, it's better if I can keep an eye on you."

Natalie reached out and pinched Olivia's cheek. "I couldn't bear to let you deal with any sleazy industry rules."

"Aw..." Olivia flung her arms around Natalie's waist. "Nat, I love you!"

"Alright. Get off me." Natalie chuckled, pushing her away.

They entered the bedroom, washed their hands, and climbed into bed.
