The Queen They Buried (by Wynter Vans) novel Chapter 539

Chapter 539

He couldn’t care less. He inwardly scoffed, ‘Back when Aubree was good to them, none of them gave a damn. Now they’re all tripping over themselves to win her favor. How shameless can they get?‘

“If you’ve got so much time on your hands, why not figure out how to get Aubree to even spare you a glance?” he mocked.

With that, Daxton grabbed Carmen’s hand and turned to leave.

Trevor was sure there was a reason why everyone used to side with Carmen. However, he had no idea why Daxton was so stubborn about siding with Carmon, but he couldn’t believe Aubree was really out of the picture.

“Daxton, you keep sticking up for her now, but don’t come crying when you realize you’ve been raising a snake at your side–and when the time comes, it’ll come for your life,” Trevor sneered.

Out of Daxton’s sight, Carmen stiffened for a second, then quickly relaxed. As long as she kept her mouth shut, there was no way Daxton would ever find out.

As for the whole stalker mess with Trevor back then, other people besides herself and Aubree were aware of it. As such, it wasn’t exactly surprising that Trevor would find out.

As Carmen reflected on everything, she felt a bit more at ease. At that moment, the most important task was to seize the opportunity while Bryan was occupied with cleaning up the mess Trevor had caused and to make a positive impression on the company’s shareholders.

Daxton, for his part, was sure he’d never be as clueless as Trevor. He lowly murmured, “So what? Carmen’s been like a little sister to me since we were kids. No one knows her better than I do.”

He pondered, ‘Besides, a lot of the things Bryan and the others blamed on Carmen were also my doing. None of it was her fault; it was a result of me not thinking things through, and she ended up taking the fall for it.’

On the other hand, Trevor kept his thoughts to himself, waiting for the day Daxton would regret it.

But Daxton was right about one thing. There was no way Aubree would even spare him a second glance now.

Trevor let out a bitter laugh. ‘Isn’t all of this just what I brought on myself?‘ he thought.

As Trevor’s leaked photo scandal finally wound down with Kate’s sentencing, his die–hard fans were clapping and cheering.

Even after all that, Trevor still had nearly a hundred million followers on X.

As he had already mentioned he was retiring from the industry, so whether he meant it or not, Trevor had to keep up the appearances. With Bryan pulling the strings, he held a press conference to officially announce his temporary retirement.

His fans were bawling their eyes out, snot and tears streaming down their faces as they begged him not to leave.

Aubree watched the live stream of his press conference.

there’s a chance I might not get that chance.

course,

The whole “gentleman” persona was shot, but a rich playboy who just lives for fun? That kind of image was still a hit with the public.
