Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 241

He wracked his brain but couldn’t recall anyone touching his phone. It had been on him the entire time, so how could the photos have been deleted?

Dammit. Being falsely accused felt awful.

Who could have touched his phone?

Jerome thought long and hard, finally concluding that he must have accidentally deleted the photos himself.

What a shame. Those designs were truly brilliant.

But how did they suddenly end up as designs for Sebastian’s company?

Jerome froze, his mind flashing back to Joanna’s party. The kidnapping she had staged, which led to Natalie getting hit by Sebastian, then by their father…

Dammit, she was a vicious woman to begin with. What was wrong with a few slaps? It wasn’t Joanna’s fault.

Frustrated, Jerome went back to inspecting the car.

...

In the car, Natalie closed her eyes, her heart aching.

Luna, who was driving, glanced at Natalie’s pained expression and seethed with anger. “Don’t be sad, Natalie. It’s just a few designs. You’re a fountain of inspiration; you’ll come up with something even better.”

Natalie took a deep breath. She didn’t want to be sad, but she couldn’t stop the ache in her heart.

“No, I can’t let this go,” Natalie declared, her eyes blazing with fury. “Take me to Verna. I’m starting a fight today.”

Luna’s eyes mirrored her anger. “You got it.”

Half an hour later, the car pulled up in front of the Griffith Group’s headquarters.

“We’re here,” Luna said softly.

Natalie opened her beautiful eyes. “Wait for me here.”

Her attitude soured Natalie’s mood. “Fine. Then call him and tell him Natalie is here.”

“I’m sorry, I can’t make that call without an appointment. If you want to see our president, you’ll have to schedule one first,” the receptionist said, her tone dripping with arrogance.

Natalie clenched her fists. A murderous glint flashed in Luna’s eyes, but Natalie held her back.

“Don’t. I’ll just call him myself.”

“Oh, so you have the president’s number?” the receptionist sneered. “You really think someone like you can see him? Get lost before you dirty the place.”

Natalie said nothing, swallowing her anger as she pulled out her phone. Sebastian’s number was still on her block list. She unblocked it and dialed.

The receptionist’s brow furrowed, her eyes cold as she stared at the beautiful woman before her.

“Security! Get over here and throw these two troublemakers out!”
