Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 553

Horace replied, “Miss, I just arrived to surveil him. I saw his car returning; Sean ordered takeout for him. It looks like he’ll be staying at the office tonight. He hasn’t been back to the villa lately, he’s been living at work.”

“He didn't get the west-side land, so it seems he’s looking for another suitable plot. I heard a rumor that he might be planning to build a hospital.”

“Build a hospital? Doesn’t he already own one? Why would he build another?” Joanna couldn’t understand Sebastian’s motives.

Hospitals were very profitable, she knew that, but why would Sebastian need another one?

Sebastian’s thoughts were always hard to decipher.

“Miss, I’ll investigate these matters. Everything for tomorrow is arranged. Marshall is finished. That punk has been arrogant for far too long. Let’s see if he can still smile tomorrow.”

Horace was more focused on the coming day’s events. He despised rich brats like Marshall who, backed by family money, looked down on everyone. He planned to be glued to the screen tomorrow, watching Marshall's downfall.

Joanna smiled elegantly, her eyes fixed on the window with excitement.

“If Natalie hadn’t ruined my plans back then, we wouldn’t have ended up in this position.”

“It’s all because of Natalie that our plans were delayed until now. Once the raw materials fail inspection, their entire project is ruined. His previous non-compliant projects will have to be demolished and rebuilt, doubling the construction costs. He’ll also face legal liabilities. Even if they split the responsibility 50/50, the Spencer family will bear the brunt of it.”

When one door closes, another opens.

If Marshall couldn’t be of use to her, then he had to be destroyed. She could still make money by collaborating with Yves.

Joanna chatted with Horace for a little longer before hanging up.

She went to check on her father. Wendy wouldn’t be coming tonight; her company's problems had her completely tied down. Tomorrow morning, she'd return the money to Wendy, and the acquisition could proceed quickly.

She was confused. “How did this happen? You were fine last year. Why are you suddenly dealing with all these health issues?”

Her father had to give her mother a happy life; he couldn’t afford to have something happen to him now.

“Sigh.” Nathan didn’t know what was wrong with him either.

This year felt unlucky, with his body constantly failing him.

“By the way, Joanna, your mother… she wronged me,” he said, his eyes cold.

Joanna froze. She had only just found out about it herself.

Her mother was quite capable, managing to attract the attention of Mr. Wilson’s nephew. When she called her mother later, she learned they had been seeing each other for a long time.
