The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 367 I'm Your Worst Nightmare

Charlotte suddenly cleared her throat. She took Natalie by the hand and stood. "Sweetie, they're talking business. You're still young, so let's go to the garden and pick some fresh flowers to arrange in a vase. We can have breakfast in the garden. I'll have Gorge bring it out later."

Turning toward William, she said, "Honey, you can chat with our guest. I'll take Natalie to pick flowers."

With that, Charlotte led Natalie out of the dining area.

"Wait, don't leave!" Ivan sprang to his feet, rushing over to block their path. "Natalie, you're so beautiful and kind. You wouldn't just leave me in the lurch, right? Please, help me!"

Natalie was speechless. She had never seen such a shameless man.

Before she could speak, Charlotte drew her behind her and smiled gently. "Ivan, please don't make things hard for my daughter. She just got home and knows nothing about the business world. All the money we gave her is locked away in long-term accounts, so we really can't lend you anything."

Charlotte squeezed Natalie's hand, hinting that she didn't need to say anything at all or worry. Ivan would never walk away with a single cent.

Natalie squeezed Charlotte's hand back. She was grateful for Charlotte's protection, but something like this was no trouble for her to handle on her own.

"Mr. Sinclair, if I remember correctly, we had a bit of a conflict at Goodwill Pharmacy not too long ago," Natalie said coldly. "If your memory isn't great, I'd be happy to remind you. Just because my parents are polite to guests doesn't mean I don't hold grudges."

Natalie stepped out from behind Charlotte and looked at William. "Dad, last time at Goodwill Pharmacy, Mr. Sinclair insulted Mom, saying I was a child she had with another man."

"You little=" Ivan's face reddened. It was true he had said those things. He never expected he would one day come begging the Walker family for help.

Natalie added, "Mr. Sinclair also called me an uppity nobody. He said I shouldn't assume you two love me more. He even claimed that Emma dared to insult me at the welcome party only because the two of you allowed it."

As she spoke, Natalie turned her gaze back to Ivan and said slowly, "If you've forgotten, I can always show you the surveillance footage from the pharmacy again. It'll refresh your memory and remind my dad exactly how you mocked my mom and me."
