Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 601

Wendy smiled and said, “Nathan, if I don’t pay off this debt, and your four useless sons can't either, the creditors will have to go after Joanna. She has plenty of assets to her name. We both love her, don't we? Or would you rather see her wealth seized to pay off the debt?”

“Was your affection for her fake? Are you not willing to protect her?”

Nathan was speechless.

Joanna was stunned. Wendy, willing to protect her even now?

She scoffed inwardly. Wendy was just using her as a convenient excuse.

But she had no choice but to suffer in silence. The fact that she was the daughter of a mistress could never be exposed.

Nathan’s face turned ashen. There was a terrifying logic to what Wendy was saying. His four sons were incompetent, and according to the law, the debt would fall to them. The collectors would undoubtedly hound Joanna for the money.

If they dug up his secrets in the process, he would be finished.

“Wendy, you’re a menace! I’m an old man, and now I’m saddled with all this…”

“Nathan, we’re divorced now. The moment my company collapsed, you turned on me and immediately filed for divorce. I was wrong about you all these years.”

“I supported you ingrates for over twenty years, and you never once said thank you, not a single word of gratitude. The moment I went bankrupt, you abandoned me, and now you have the nerve to blame me?”

“Nathan, has it ever occurred to you that what goes around, comes around? Perhaps you committed some terrible sin in the past to deserve this disaster in what should be your golden years.”

The loan was real, and the debt was real. The act had to be convincing, or Joanna would have become suspicious.

Lindsay smiled and reminded her, “Wendy, even though we’ve succeeded, we can't let our guard down. It took us a full ten months to arrange all of it.”

Yeri added, “We need to lay low for a while. We’ll expose their secrets one by one. The mistress needs to be brought to light, and everyone needs to know what a heartless man Nathan is. Only then will you get the justice you deserve.”

Wendy raised an eyebrow, her smile confident and elegant. “I'm going to force Nathan to admit he cheated on me.”

Lindsay added, “Wendy, we've all been working so hard. Come, sit down. Let's have a good meal to celebrate. It's been a long time since I've felt this relaxed.”
