His words made Natalie's chest ache with a mixture of anger and disbelief. It was almost laughable.
"Heh..." She let out a bitter laugh, her cold eyes fixed on the shameless man before her. She couldn't stop herself from swearing. "Nathan, are you out of your mind? You want my brother to just hand over his company to you? Take a good look at yourself. What have you ever been worth?"
"I have nothing to do with you anymore, yet you have the audacity to show up here? Both of you, get out. I don't waste my time on people I can't stand, so don't even think about trying your pathetic little tricks on me. They won't work."
Nathan hadn't expected Natalie to be so resolute. His blood pressure spiked, and his lips trembled, struggling to form words. "You wretched girl! I'm your father! Do you think you can be this arrogant just because you have some support now?"
He was shocked that the usually meek Natalie could speak with such force.
"That's right, I am this arrogant. So don't provoke me, and don't come here with your scheme. You've been leeching off women for years, and now you want to reap where you haven't sown? You've truly perfected the art of being shameless."
Natalie was furious. This morning had been full of shameless people.
Why was she even given a second chance at life?
She had endured so much hardship, only to be reborn because she believed this world was worth living in.
She was living for herself now. These parasites would not control her.
Nathan's face turned pale with rage. "Natalie, if it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t even exist. I’m your father—it’s only right that you show me respect."
"That brother of yours who isn't even related by blood? Natalie, you better think carefully. We are your real, blood-related family."
"Pfft..."
His words made her laugh, but there was no joy in it, only a cold amusement where the pain used to be.
