Chapter 2143: Chapter 2137: She Dared to Find a Reporter to Frame Her

"I’m good with anything. Ashton can’t eat spicy food, so let’s pick a restaurant with lighter flavors."

Jeremy still vividly remembers the first time they took Ashton Heath out for fondue and he ended up throwing up.

"Today, I’ll be joining you two. Don’t worry about me, choose whatever you guys like."

In the end, they found a cuisine restaurant with lighter flavors.

After lunch, they sent Jeremy back to school.

On the way back...

Joanna’s phone received an automatic news push notification from Blog.

Top News: Shocking! Joanna’s stepmother cries out, claiming that she and her daughter were kicked out of their home by Joanna, now homeless and in a miserable situation!

It took Joanna a few seconds to process the news notification when she first saw it.

After carefully reading it again, making sure that she had not misread it, she clicked on the link to read the full news.

The news must have just been recently reported.

As Joanna clicked on it, it showed that the news was published 10 minutes ago.

The news article contained a video, and the thumbnail was of Rose Liall being interviewed by a journalist.

First, Joanna read the news content.

The article reported that Rose found a journalist and tearfully complained that she and her daughter were kicked out of their home by Joanna. The two were now homeless and had no place to go. Not only that, but Joanna had also framed her daughter Annie, ruining her reputation and severely affecting her career.

Joanna hadn’t watched the interview video yet.

However, she could already imagine how Rose must be crying with grief and accusing her in the video.

Just as Joanna finished reading the news, Linda called her.

Joanna answered, "Hello, Linda."

"Joanna, did you see the news? Your stepmother told reporters that you kicked her and Annie out of the house and that they’re homeless now."

"Yeah, I just saw it."

"What’s going on?"

"They did indeed leave the Lawrence family, but it wasn’t me who kicked them out."

Joanna found it ridiculous.

Was Rose not afraid that she would expose all the dirty secrets in public?

Yet she dared to falsely accuse her in front of a journalist.

"So, this situation..."

"Linda, I’ll take care of this myself. Don’t worry, I can handle it."

"Alright. I’m just worried that they might do something drastic out of desperation. Since the scandal surrounding Annie broke, her previous endorsement deals have been cancelled, and she’s probably going to pay a lot in breach penalties."

"She must be very resentful of you right now. But you have President Ashton protecting you and the support of the White family, so she won’t be able to do anything to you no matter how much she hates you." Linda hung up the call.

"What happened?" Ashton asked worriedly after hearing her conversation with Linda.

Joanna just handed him her phone.

As Ashton glanced at the screen with a puzzled expression and looked at it for a while, Joanna saw his brows furrow.

"I don’t know where Rose got her guts," Joanna said, unable to understand. "She even has the nerve to put herself as the victim."

"She probably thinks you won’t expose her misdeeds. After all, airing one’s dirty laundry usually brings ridicule to the family."

"If anyone’s going to be ridiculed, it’s her. She’s the one who did wrong, not my dad," Joanna said angrily, thinking of the words she’d just read. "Since she believes I won’t expose her dirty deeds, I will do it just to spite her."
