Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 639

She was determined to put them in their place. She couldn't let them think that just because Marie had married into their family, they could throw their weight around in the Ward family or at the Ward Group.

They needed to learn who was boss.

Victoria's expression soured, but she didn't dare say another word. After all, the Cross Group was now defunct, and they had to rely on the Ward Group. So, no matter how upset she was, she couldn't say anything and could only force a smile.

Elaine Ward ignored Victoria and turned to Darren. "Darren, I'm not trying to nag you, but you know how you lost the Cross Group. While it's true that failure is the mother of success, you need to understand that without my daughter, you'd probably have a hard time even finding a job. Don't think you can just sponge off of us. If you do, you won't be enjoying the Ward family's hospitality for very long."

Natalie's comment about them being taken advantage of had clearly struck a nerve with Elaine Ward.

She had no intention of letting the Cross family, those vampires, bleed the Ward family dry.

"Mrs. Ward, don't listen to Natalie trying to stir up trouble. What's all this nonsense about being taken advantage of? The Cross family has never had such thoughts.

We should get Marie to sign the inheritance agreement. Everyone is waiting to congratulate Marie on becoming the president of the Ward Group. When Marie becomes one of the top three wealthiest women in the country, it'll be a victory for all of us women."

"Mom, my mother-in-law is right. Everyone is waiting to see me sign the inheritance agreement and congratulate me. We shouldn't let Natalie ruin the mood. I think Natalie is just jealous!"

Victoria quickly chimed in, "Yes, exactly! Natalie is just jealous, so she's deliberately spouting nonsense. We can't fall for her trap and let her drive a wedge between our two families."

Elaine Ward glanced at Victoria. For her daughter Marie's sake, she decided to let it go.

"Fine, I'll listen to my daughter. Let's proceed with the signing of the inheritance agreement."
