Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 1142

"And I knew all about your little plans," Wendy continued. "It just so happened my company ran into issues. To protect what little wealth I had left, I had no choice but to sell it. At least now I won't end up on the streets."

Then, a bizarre, chilling smile spread across Wendy's face, and her voice dropped an octave. "Congratulations, Joanna. You're live."

The moment the words left Wendy's mouth, Joanna's pupils dilated in absolute shock.

"What did you say? A live stream?" Joanna asked, her voice trembling with disbelief.

Wendy pointed to a hidden camera discreetly positioned across the room. "That's right. I want everyone who ever supported you to see exactly how vile you truly are."

The confirmation hit Joanna like a physical blow. She stood frozen for a second before erupting into a furious rage.

"Wendy!" she shrieked, her voice cracking. "I was the treasure in the palm of your hand! I was your beloved daughter! Why would you ruin me like this?"

Wendy had expected this hysterical reaction the second the truth dropped.

Her gaze turned glacial. "Why? Because you need to pay the price for your own venom. I need to get justice for my daughter. It's that simple. You schemed against my child, stole her work, and manipulated my four sons into hurting her. You have to pay for all of it. I might not have hard evidence for the police, but I can use this to show the world who you really are. They won't be fooled by you ever again. That's why this stream is happening."

Joanna's frantic energy suddenly evaporated. The color drained from her face, and the burning anger in her eyes was replaced by a deep, pitch-black murderous intent.

She squeezed her eyes shut, desperately wishing this was just a nightmare. She just wanted to wake up to a better reality.

Wendy stood up, her expression turning even colder as she studied Joanna's face. A meaningful smirk played on her lips. "Well, Joanna. I had no idea you harbored dreams of being a business queen."

Was that why she had clawed her way up so desperately?

Right now, Joanna felt her entire world collapsing. It was pathetic. Her whole life had been turned into a joke by Wendy. Her future was completely ruined.

She had no idea what other horrors were waiting for her next.
