Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 790

Natalie's words were barbed. To say she didn't hate her would be a lie.

As long as the past wasn't brought up, she could almost manage it. But the moment she saw her mother, the hatred would bubble up uncontrollably.

Wendy was taken aback. She had, in fact, said those things. "Natalie, at the time, I..."

"Don't bother explaining. Whatever your reasons were back then, it has nothing to do with me now. I've already repaid you for giving birth to me. What happened with Nathan was me settling that debt. From now on, when you see me, please act like you don't know me."

"I will never forgive you for the pain you caused me."

Natalie was ruthless. Wendy's words, whenever she recalled them, still felt like a knife to the heart.

Wendy watched her daughter's angry, resentful gaze and swallowed the words she was about to say.

It was true. For that shameless, vicious woman Joanna, she had used the cruelest words in the world to hurt her own biological daughter.

She said through tears, "Natalie, I'm sorry! I didn't know anything back then..."

Natalie laughed coldly, cutting her off. "Does that have anything to do with how horribly you spoke to me, or the fact that you didn't know Joanna was a bad person? Let's be honest, you were just ashamed of me, thinking I wasn't presentable and would embarrass the Don family. Don't use 'I didn't know' as an excuse to cover up what you did. I said I would never forgive you, and I meant it."

Natalie quickly paid for her items and left the store. This morning had been infuriating.

Wendy stood frozen, overwhelmed with pain. Thinking about what she had done to Natalie for Joanna's sake made her want to kill herself.

Back then, she had truly only loved Joanna, the daughter she had raised with her own hands. In her eyes, Joanna had been perfect.

It was also true that she had been afraid Natalie would embarrass her. She was unworthy of being her mother.

Truly unworthy.

But she wasn't Evelyn's mother and couldn't persuade her to change her ways.

Evelyn had gotten very close to Sophia, acting like they were mother and daughter. Wendy had a nagging feeling that Sophia was using Evelyn.

That woman, Sophia, was definitely up to no good. There was no way she genuinely cared for Evelyn.

Feeling anxious, Wendy left the store and saw Natalie's car driving away. On impulse, she quickly got into her own car and followed her.

It was only after Natalie was gone that she realized she knew absolutely nothing about her.

This realization filled her with even more guilt. She knew her daughter's name was Natalie, and that was it.

She had been so busy caring for Joanna that she didn't even know who her own daughter's friends were.
