The Phantom Heiress Rising From The Shadows

Chapter 1151:

She rolled her eyes, her voice tinged with bitterness. “But it didn’t take long for us to see her real motives. She just wanted to use us. My elderly mother was put to work, too. Rosie had me cozy up to Denis, hoping to use the Wagner family to her advantage. I did as I was told and stayed with Denis for a while. Then, Judy started chasing after him, and Denis dumped me in a heartbeat.” After a pause, she continued, “Rosie figured I could be useful elsewhere. She tried to get me involved with Luka from Summit Cable Company—a man who made my skin crawl. I refused, no matter how much money she offered. So, she stopped working with me.”

Brenna listened closely, unsure if Isabella was telling the whole truth but seeing no clear lies.

“So, how did Judy wind up working for Rosie?” Brenna asked. She had a rough idea but wanted confirmation. She knew that only mutual benefits could turn enemies into allies.

Isabella scoffed, “It’s simple. Rosie had her eyes on controlling Shirie’s underworld. When Jade stepped down, Denis took over the syndicate. But Denis wasn’t clever enough to keep his grip on power. The number two guy staged a coup—he had Denis tied up, and he meant to blow Denis up. Judy’s interest in Denis saved his life.”

She looked at Brenna as she continued, “Rosie had no clue Denis had betrayed her and kept using him until he messed up a job. Then, she set a trap for him—got him drunk and took some scandalous photos with women to threaten him. And Denis had no choice but to confess everything. After that, Denis had to play along with Rosie since she held leverage over him. He introduced her to Judy. Rosie manipulated Judy, and now, Judy follows her command like a puppet. Rosie runs almost all of Shirie’s criminal operations.”
