Chapter 135 Don't Make Me Wait Too Long
Aidan and Keith acted. when their collaboration was confirmed, they couldn't wait to start taking action against the Barns family, moving so fast that it didn't give the other side a chance to react.
***
In the Barns family's CEO office.
Natalie stood respectfully in front of the desk, looking at the middle-aged man sitting opposite her. Even though he was reprimanding her, she didn't dare to utter a word of disagreement.
"Natalie, you're my daughter. You should know that I've made you sit in the current position
"Are you aware of the pressure I am under in this position? People below are whispering behind my back that I helped you through the backdoor. You should work harder instead." The middle-aged man speaking was Natalie's father, Francis.
Natalie apologetically said, "I'm sorry, father, for disappointing you."
"I am disappointed," Francis Barns said with a cold face, staring at her for a long time before saying, "but not because of the problems the Barns family is currently facing, it's about your future."
"Dad..." Natalie bit her lip, knowing what he was going to say.
"that young man from the Stanley family looks pretty good, you should give him a try," Francis said.
Natalie lowered her head, not letting the man opposite her see the resentment in her eyes. "Dad, I like someone else."
"Dermot, right? I know," Francis chuckled, then continued, "It's not just me who knows, the whole city of Moris knows."
"But is it useful? Does Dermot like you? For so long, you have wasted too much time on him. Now that the Barns family is facing difficulties, you should know what to do."
Natalie's looked up at her father in disbelief, "Dad, although the Barns family is facing challenges, it shouldn't come to the point of a marriage alliance, right?"
"The Kartland family and that boy, Aidan, are gaining momentum. Although our Barns family is powerful, we still have to be cautious." He looked at his daughter, his face heavy.
Natalie fell silent, and Francis continued, "The Stanley family mentioned that if you marry into their family, they will join us in dealing with those two families. With the help of the Stanley family, the Barns family might even have a chance to swallow up the Kartland family and Aidan."
Natalie understood these reasons, but she still didn't want to accept them.
She was his daughter, a living person, was she just going to be treated as a commodity?
She had always believed that as long as she worked hard, there would be a day when she would be recognized. But now, she realized that she was too naive.
The plan she had been hesitating about whether or not to execute had made up her mind.
"Natalie?" Francis frowned when she didn't speak, looking unhappy.
"Dad, I understand," Natalie said.
Francis was satisfied. This was the daughter he wanted. "It's good that you understand. Pay more attention to the Stanley family."
"What about the company..."
"Company matters don't need your concern. I have asked Kenny to help in the company. You just need to handle the relationship with the Stanley family well recently," he said.
"Can that useless Kenny be of any help?" Natalie found it ridiculous.
she didn't laugh, but lowered her head and said, "Go ahead, don't make me wait too long. The Barns family can't wait too long either," Francis instructed.
Natalie turned and left the office. when she walked out, her face turned cold.
She looked back at the direction of the office, her gaze venomous.
"Kenny, are you free? Your sister has something good to tell you." Holding her phone, she smiled and said to Kenny on the other end of the line.
