"That vicious bitch," Maxwell hissed. "Who does she think she is? Ordering a hit on us on New Year's Eve?"
Joanna felt utterly defeated. She had to undergo constant treatments over the next few days, leaving her no time to plot any retaliation against Natalie.
Worse still, she realized she had no idea where Natalie was living. She couldn't even arrange a counterattack.
"Maxwell, don't worry about any of that right now. Just focus on recovering. Once the holidays are over, we have a lot of work to do."
Thinking about the plot of land they bought from the Spencer family, a sudden knot of anxiety formed in Joanna's chest.
Her visions of the future had become disjointed, and she had absolutely zero memory of how that land deal was supposed to play out.
Maxwell gritted his teeth. "Give me my phone. I'm not just going to lie here and take this. Natalie is going to pay for what she did."
"She kept her head down for years, tricking not just you, but Sebastian and Wendy, too."
"She's dangerously competent, but she hid it perfectly."
Joanna handed him his phone, her brow furrowed in worry. "Maxwell, I feel like this is completely spiraling out of our control. Maybe we should try a different approach."
"This was a direct, calculated attack. She's far more dangerous than we thought. I never viewed her as a threat before, but now... we have to treat her as a serious rival."
But Maxwell, fresh off the adrenaline of waking up, was blinded by a toxic, suffocating rage. No one could talk him down.
"Don't worry about it. Let's make sure she can't even get out of bed first. Since she's already in a wheelchair, I don't mind adding a few more fractures to her list."
Seeing his conviction, Joanna didn't argue. She wanted Natalie dead just as much as he did.
