Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 421

Robert frowned, his voice cold. "So that's how it is. No wonder she has it out for Joanna."

“Joanna, your parents were too kind, adopting such an ungrateful snake. Don't worry, as long as I'm here, she won't be able to bully you. The next time I see Natalie, I'll teach her a lesson for you.”

Joanna smiled gently and nodded, her big, innocent eyes filled with admiration. "Thank you so much for helping me, Robert. Let's go eat. I don't want my problems to ruin your good mood."

She deliberately put on a soft, sweet smile, looking docile and gentle.

Watching her, Robert's heart pounded. She was so gentle.

"Alright!" His voice softened as well.

A triumphant glint flashed in Joanna's eyes. Robert, from the powerful Warner family, was rich and influential. If she could make him fall for her, she wouldn't have to worry about resources in the future.

The group entered the restaurant, still laughing and talking.

Not far away, Sean, who had come out to buy dinner for Sebastian, had witnessed the entire exchange with perfect clarity.

He was shocked. This was the power of a master manipulator.

Even Mr. Warner was treating her with such gentleness.

Her skills were too advanced; she was someone you didn't want to cross. Sean could already tell Joanna was targeting him. His repeated support for Ms. Sanders had made Joanna want him gone.

Sean headed back to the hotel with the dinner. Sebastian was busy tonight, stuck in meetings in the hotel conference room.

As Natalie and Susan left the restaurant, Susan was so angry she was on the verge of tears. Her eyes were red, but she forced a smile. "Natalie, that Joanna is terrifying. How can no one see through her dirty tricks?"

Natalie chuckled. "She has this halo about her that seems to blind people. And that face of hers is undeniably pitiable—pale, teary-eyed... designed to awaken a man's most primal protective instincts."
