In Bridgedale, Natalie waited in the restaurant for almost half an hour before Violet appeared.
Violet did not mean to be late.
"The traffic was terrible! I forgot to tell you that the restaurant you picked is just so-so. It might look like it's popular, but that's only because it has a good location. Even if you opened a street food stall here, business will be great," Violet said as she took her seat.
"I lived nearby, so I picked this restaurant," said Natalie with a smile. "Violet, Dean is dead. Has Sebastian contacted you yet?"
Violet's expression froze. "Who told you that he is dead? I thought that they hadn't found his body yet. Sebastian has not asked for me. After all, Dad's body hasn't been found yet…"
"Hahaha! Sebastian knows that Dean is dead, and he has known it for a long time," said Natalie, howling with laughter. "Looks like he did not tell you anything."
Violet's expression instantly changed. Anger rose in her. "How do you know that Dad is dead? Also, how do you know that Sebastian knows about it?"
"It's actually quite pointless for me to tell you this, but from how Dean treated you while he was alive, I'm guessing that he won't leave you much." Natalie's words to Violet were a hard blow. "Don't tell me you're still hoping for something?"
"Natalie, you asked me out only to humiliate me?" Violet's face was turning blue.
Natalie looked at Violet. She was in a good mood. "Sis, I'm only telling you a part of the truth, yet you can't take even take this? If it had been a real blow, then you wouldn't you have surely gone mad?"
Violet's chest was heaving quickly. Her breathing turned hot. "Natalie, stop calling me sis. You disgust me!"
"So you don't feel disgusted if Sebastian calls you sis? Dean is dead. Sebastian is the biggest beneficiary. Don't you think that Dean would have left everything to Sebastian? Dean favors boys. Everyone knows this. Don't tell me you don't know this?" Natalie picked up the jug from the table and poured Violet some water. "Drink some water and calm down."
How could Violet not know about her father's favoritism for boys? Of course, she also knew that her father disliked her and might not have left her any inheritance.
