Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 544

“Darren, just forget about Natalie. You’re not in her heart anymore. I’m about to hold a press conference to announce my succession as CEO of the Ward Group, and I’ll announce you as our vice president then.”

“I don’t need to be the vice president of your Ward Group. I’ll find a way to get the Cross Group back on its feet myself.”

Victoria quickly grabbed Darren, shooting him frantic looks.

“Darren, you and Marie are married now. Her company is your company, what’s the difference? So what if you’re vice president? In the office, you’re the VP, but at home, the man is still in charge.”

The Ward Group was much larger than their Cross Group. Once they absorbed it, they could just change the name, and it would belong to the Cross family.

Marie knew exactly what Victoria was thinking. She would make her understand what it truly meant to live under someone else’s roof.

The Lockwood Estate

“What? Marie might not be a Ward?”

Upon hearing this bombshell, Mrs. Lockwood couldn’t sit still.

“She’s not Richard’s daughter? Then was she Elaine’s child with someone else?”

Natalie’s expression was serious. “There’s no direct evidence yet, but I suspect she might not be Elaine’s daughter either. If she were, Marcus wouldn’t have said she wasn’t his sister. The way it happened, it felt more like Marcus was trying to warn Elaine Ward that Marie was not his sister!”

Mrs. Lockwood’s brow furrowed. “What on earth is going on? Marie was raised in the Ward family since she was a baby. Could she have been… switched at birth?”

Terence’s eyes were cold. “I’ve had people look into the hospital where Marie was born, but we haven't found anything unusual so far.”
