Chapter 316 Rachel’s Slip

“Juliana. Natalie is my daughter, the mistress of this house, and the future heir to half of Stone Group. This is her home. Are you saying my daughter can’t sit in her own home? For a housekeeper, your question was far too much.”

At once, Juliana’s face shifted.

“Madam…”

“Enough. Apologize to her. If you feel uncomfortable staying here, then return to the old estate. You can arrange the staff there, but when it comes to Natalie and Flynn, you have no authority. They’re my children, not your servants.”

After finishing, Ruby walked over to Natalie, guilt in her voice. “Natalie, it’s my fault for not noticing sooner. I let this upset you. Will you let Juliana apologize?”

Natalie had heard about Juliana from Flynn and Chris–how she had been by Ruby’s side during her darkest years. Because of that, Natalie hadn’t intended to press the matter.

“Alright, Mom. Whatever you say.”

But her words only made Juliana more unsettled.

Still, seeing the expressions on Ruby and Waylon’s faces, she knew that if she didn’t apologize today, she’d likely be sent back to the old estate tomorrow.

Unwillingly, Juliana walked up to Natalie. But before she could speak, disaster struck.
