Mr. Wilson''s clouded pupils constricted. "Natalie, you..."


    Natalie cut him off with a smile. "Mr. Wilson, even if you want to lose your temper, you shouldn''t pick on an honest person. Joanna introduced that woman to your son, and now that there''s trouble, you want me to be the scapegoat?"


    "You''re a real artist, aren''t you? You spin the me so well you almost believe it yourself."


    “Besides, given your age and blood pressure, I''d be careful. A tantrum like this might justnd you in the ER with a stroke."


    But the Wilson family would definitely be a prize for Joanna. That rotten enterprise would be a headache for her to take over.


    Natalie watched Mr. Wilson with a beaming smile, her gently tremblingshes hiding an enigmatic emotion.


    Joanna red at Natalie. That bitch, how did she suddenly be so formidable?


    Mr. Wilson''s phone rang. It was his butler. He shot a nce at Natalie before answering. "Hello!"


    "Mr. Wilson, it''s bad!" the butler eximed. "The police are here searching the house! Your daughter-inw also went to the police to report your son for domestic abuse and for coercing actresses at thepany. She reported you as well, for many illegal activities. Mr. Wilson, you need toe back right away!"


    "What?" Mr. Wilson couldn''t believe it. How dare that woman?


    Meanwhile, seeing the color drain from Mr. Wilson''s face, Joanna''s mind raced, calcting how to acquire the Wilson Group.


    His eldest son''s wife had made her move, which meant the time was right.


    Joanna quickly sent a message.


    A few minutester, Nora replied.


    [Miss, we''ve been monitoring the Wilson family. Their stock is falling abnormally. Someone has orchestrated a setup.]


    Joanna frowned. Who could have moved on the Wilson family so quickly, even faster than her?


    No, she had been eyeing the Wilson family for a long time. It had to be hers.


    Joanna: [Find the right moment and acquire his subsidiaries.]


    Nora: [Yes, miss!]


    After sending the message, she saw Mr. Wilson stagger back a few steps.


    "Mr. Wilson," Joanna said, feigning concern. He couldn''t copse now. He had to stay here and back her up until Timothy arrived.


    But Mr. Wilson furiously pped her hand away. "p!"


    He struck Joanna across the face. “Joanna, haven''t I been good to you? If it weren''t for how well you took care of me in bed, I wouldn''t be standing here backing you But your ambitions too great! actually nted someone to get close to my daughter-in-faw, just to dig up dirt and manipte her into calling the cops!"


    "Joanna, is this how you repay me?"


    The crowd froze, speechless.


    Joanna and Mr. Wilson!?


    Maxwell Griffith, however, showed no expression, because the woman involved was someone else.


    Natalie noticed Maxwell Griffith''sck of reaction and felt a strange sensation.


    Normally, he would be furious at Joanna being exposed in such a scandal, but he wasn''t angry at all. Instead, he stood by, impassive.


    She hadn''t revealed the rtionship between Mr. Wilson and Joanna because shecked solid


    proof-only a video of them entering a room and emerging muchter. To prove an affair you need to catch them in the act. Without enough evidence, they could easily turn the tables on her.


    What surprised her was that Mr. Wilson had exposed it himself.


    Just then, Joanna''s red lips curved into a smile. "Mr. Wilson, what are you talking


    Thout? never took care''


    of you. The one who has been with you all this time is Hannah Price."


    "What?" Mr. Wilson was stunned. "Joanna, you set me up? No wonder I always felt groggy when I woke up."


    Joanna shook her head. "Mr. Wilson, I didn''t set you up. You just couldn''t resist the temptation of a young woman. Is that my fault, too?"


    “Joanna, you... you''re shameless! I never thought my life would be ruined by your hands." Mr. Wilson was so furious he looked like he was about to faint.
