The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 495 A Bitter Falling Out

Victor's expression was icy as he looked at Grace, all traces of fear and affection completely gone.

"I already know that I'm not your biological son. All these years, you never had faith in me and always thought I was incapable. When Natalie was in the Langley family, you made us the villains, forcing us to drain her blood while secretly grooming her to take over Langley Group.

"In the past, we had no idea what your real intentions were. Now, everything is crystal clear. Grace, you adopted me but never treated me well. Do you even have a conscience?"

Grace's face turned ashen. She had never imagined that the son she had raised with her own hands would say such things to her.

She gritted her teeth, her gaze locking onto Victor. "So I raised an ungrateful bastard. Is that it? You were abandoned in a trash bin, and it was out of my kindness that I picked you up, fed you, changed your diapers, and raised you. I even arranged your marriage and gave you a position at Langley Group.

"But you are not my flesh and blood. Your intelligence and abilities are lacking. If Langley Group were in your hands, it would only decline. There would be no prosperity to speak of.

"If you were in charge, the Langley family wouldn't be wealthiest in Amberton. It would be the most bankrupt.

"Victor, a wise person should know their own limits, but you don't. Everything you have is because of me.

"You're not my real son. I didn't want you to marry Diana, yet you defied me. You insisted on going against my wishes. Taking away your daughter was my way of punishing you, a warning for your disobedience."

Grace was completely enraged. These words had been suppressed in her heart for too long. Pushed to the edge by Victor, she blurted them out without thinking.

Diana's eyes reddened. "So you admit it now. You really were the one who got rid of my daughter? You old hag, you have such a cruel heart. If you hated me, you could have come after me directly. Why take my newborn daughter and have her sold like a commodity, forcing her to endure so much suffering?"
