Natalie took a deep breath before slowly speaking. "Maxwell, in the beginning, Joanna's target wasn't you. It was Marshall."
"You saw what happened at that banquet. I broke both of Marshall's hands to prove my innocence, and in the end, he believed me."
"Marshall also learned about Joanna's scheme. She deliberately set up the old Mrs. Spencer to have an accident in the swimming pool, then used the pretense of 'saving' her to try and win her favor."
"Later, when she failed to win the old madam's favor, she turned to you and the Wilson family. According to her timeline, after the Wilson family was taken care of, your family was next."
"If you don't believe me, I can act out a scene with you to show you her true colors."
She didn't really have to do any of this. Other people's lives were none of her business.
But she didn't want another enemy. Gaining an ally was always a good thing.
Of course, she and Maxwell could never actually be friends.
She just wanted to ruin Joanna's plan.
Maxwell's gaze turned cold. "What's the plan?"
Natalie replied, "Call her right now. Tell her you've successfully killed me, and see how she reacts."
Maxwell was silent for a moment.
But it was a good idea.
Maxwell knew what had happened at the banquet.
Natalie had broken Marshall's hands on the spot, then set them right after.
Marshall and Natalie had cooperated, and it was a win-win for both of them.
Natalie had also publicly exposed Joanna for falsely taking credit for saving someone's life.
At the time, he hadn't thought Joanna was that bad. Instead, he had gotten lost in the grand promises she'd made.
Joanna's voice was full of glee. "Maxwell, you have to destroy the evidence. That's the only way you'll get away with it. I'll help you. Once you've disposed of her body, call me, and I'll tell you what to do next."
"Maxwell, I know you're under a lot of psychological pressure right now, but the satisfaction you feel after getting revenge is a rush you've never experienced before."
"Enjoy that feeling."
As he listened to her cheerful voice, Maxwell felt for the first time that her voice was coming straight from hell.
Natalie sneered, her eyes filled with a deep, murderous rage.
This was Joanna, an expert at manipulation.
"But... but I can't move her by myself. Joanna, I'm so scared. Can you come help me? Please?"
"I only came to kill Natalie because I listened to you."
Joanna's tone on the other end of the line suddenly became incredibly sharp. "Maxwell, what nonsense are you spouting? When did I ever tell you to kill Natalie? I wasn't the mastermind behind this. It was all your idea."
