Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 310

"Apologize to her? Why should I apologize for something I didn't do? Go on, ask her. Does she dare to call the police?"

"What do you mean? Why wouldn't she call the police? She's the victim!" Jared's voice was laced with a venomous hatred, as if he wanted to devour her whole.

For a moment, Natalie truly envied Joanna. Her brothers genuinely adored her, willing to do anything for her, even rush headlong into danger.

Natalie's voice, however, remained calm. "Jared, go tell Joanna to file a police report. See if she has the guts. She drove someone to their death. Do you really think she wants the police looking into her?"

With that, Natalie hung up and blocked Jared's number.

She got out of bed and went to soak in a hot bath. She was still covered in a cold sweat, her emotions raw and unstable.

After the call, Jared stormed back to Joanna's hospital room. She had put some ointment on her face last night, but this morning it was even more swollen, forcing her to seek medical attention. Her face was almost ruined, and her first priority was to heal it before she dealt with those two thugs.

She had subtly suggested to Jared that Natalie might be behind the attack, and just as she'd planned, he had immediately gone to confront her.

As Jared walked in, Joanna was already picturing Natalie's downfall. "Joanna, Natalie denies everything."

Joanna gently touched her swollen cheek, her voice trembling with manufactured vulnerability. "Maybe it really wasn't her. But besides Natalie, I can't think of anyone else I've offended."

She lowered her head and began to sob, her cries pitiful.

Jared's heart ached. He sat on the edge of her bed, his voice filled with affection. "Don't cry, Joanna. We only have one sister, and that's you. I will never accept Natalie. She's too evil."

Hatred filled Jared's eyes. If only his father had never found Natalie, their family would still be happy. What did blood matter? Besides a biological connection, she was nothing to them.

"It's a shame we can't call the police on Natalie," he muttered. "She's getting off way too easily."
