Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 290

“Let’s see how long your love lasts when you have no money,” Wendy said, standing up and holding out her hand, her gaze cold. “Hand them over.”

Jared was furious. “Mom, I’m your son! Why are you doing this to me? Is it because I said Natalie was the Scott family’s adopted daughter?”

“Stop blaming others! I’m cutting you off because of you and that woman downstairs. On behalf of Susan, thank you for not marrying her. Go live your life with your precious Monica. You’re an adult now; I have no obligation to support you any longer. Now give me the cards.” Wendy knew her sons well. The second one adored Joanna and would do anything for her.

“Mom!” Jared stared at his mother’s determined face and realized she was serious. He felt a surge of panic. He couldn’t survive without money. “Mom, I’m getting married. I can’t be broke.” He had already booked an expensive hotel for the wedding.

Wendy didn’t speak. She walked over, took his wallet from his bag, and emptied it of all the cards. “From this moment on, you are no longer my son,” she said, her voice trembling with pain. “If you want to get married, go to your father. I’m done with you. I’ve raised you for over twenty years. The rest of your life is up to you.”

Jared’s eyes narrowed, and a chillingly cold look, identical to Nathan’s, crossed his face. “Mom, are you really going to do this to me?”

Seeing that venomous expression, Wendy took a step back, her hands clenched into fists. “Yes! You heard what happened with your father, didn’t you? After what he did with that woman at Mr. Wilson’s party, I’m divorcing him.”

“Mom, Dad knows he was wrong! Besides, Natalie was the one who set him up that night…”

Jared was at a loss. He figured he’d let her cool down and come back tomorrow. “Mom, don’t be upset. I promise I’ll be happy. When you see how happy I am, you’ll have to accept Monica.”

Wendy slowly got to her feet, a cold smile on her face. “You have a few thousand dollars left in your account. When that runs out and you can’t find a job, let’s see what you’ll use to fuel your romance. You gave her nearly two million dollars this past year. If you weren’t rich, she wouldn’t have given you the time of day. Jared, if you walk out that door today, you are never coming back. And if you see me, don’t call me Mom. I’m not your mother.”

Since he had the money to hire trolls to slander Natalie, she was done with him. His entertainment company was already on shaky ground; she’d see how long he could keep it afloat on his own.

Jared finally understood the root of the problem. Hmph, it’s all because of Natalie again, he thought, turning on his heel in a rage. He was going to find her and settle this once and for all.
