Kate was on the verge of a meltdown. "I'm so sorry! I didn't know Edward's father was... Ugh, it's all my fault! How could I be so stupid?!" She was so upset that she started banging her head against the wall.
Natalie quickly stepped in to stop her. With a sigh, she said, "Only the core members of Edward's family know about this. I didn't even find out until long after we got married. You're not to blame. After all, every startup dreams of getting investment from Walker Group."
"Ugh!" Kate groaned, now slamming her head against the back of the couch. "So what do we do now?"
Natalie hugged a cushion. "First, try reaching out to Walker Group. Maybe—"
Kate cut her off, looking like she was about to cry. "I've already tried! They wouldn't even take my calls. That's why I came to you."
