Noticing her astounded expression, Joanna grinned and continued with the conversation. "Yes, what is it, Eva? Did something happen to Laura while in your home?" Laura inquired as she signalled Anthony to play with his toys and not to utter a word. "Laura is at my home?" Joanna raised a question and continued speaking in a fake voice. As the phone call progressed Audrey listened in silence. "Who did you say your best friend saw entered a hotel with a man last night? By Laura, you are not referring…-

Audrey smiled. In the past, she has stumbled upon Kayden and his men dealing with some of the people who bullied Joanna. She has also overheard his conversations with his men asking them to protect her in secret but she always pretended not to know it. At times she was happy and at other times scared. She was scared that his excessive care might harm her more instead of keeping her from harm's way. She smiled and raised her hand to stroke Joanna's eyebrows. "I love him," Joanna declared. Her…

"Didn't you realise your feelings for him before I left so what happened now? Did you both get into a fight?" Audrey asked worriedly. "And here I thought you both were gonna be a couple when I returned…," "Yes, I indeed believed I loved him but Amelia's words made me think otherwise?" Joanna said with her head lowered. Audrey turned and grabbed Joanna's shoulders. She made the unhappy lady look her in the eye. "What did she say?" She demanded. "Also, don't you know better that you are not supposed…

Joanna's heart pounded hard as she stood there rooted to the floor. This was not the first or second time she felt as if she was tailed by someone. The most surprising thing is that she always ended up discovering that none was in sight despite all this. She looked around and realised that there was none in sight and at this moment she regretted she came out so late at night. Why did she have to go for a walk when it was past 1:00 am? Slowly, Joanna turned around to see who was standing behind…

Meanwhile, at the palace, the uneasy Tiffany and Logan were still chatting with the Queen Mother when Tracy entered the room. "The Prime Minister is here," Tracy announced. "Grandpa is here!" Tiffany jumped to her feet in shock. She composed herself and returned to her seat noticing the way the Queen Mother stared at her. "We the adults have things to discuss. I will leave you and Logan in Tracy's care," Queen Mother Theresa informed. She stood up from the chair and walked gracefully out of the…

Memories of the video Bacon displayed on the wall that day popped into Laura's head. Slowly she turned and looked at her surroundings. The curious faces of the onlookers made her tremble. The thought of Joanna displaying the video in public as revenge made her legs go weak. She staggered two steps backwards almost losing her balance. "What is it?" Rafael, the guy by Laura's side, demanded, seeing her pale face. "Since you are fond of stating the truth, I am sure you will love what I am going to…

The hope in her eyes was long gone. From then onwards there was quietness in the car. And not only that but the atmosphere became quite awkward for everyone. "Pull over right there. We will come down from there," Joanna informed as she pointed her hand at a suitable spot on her right-hand side. "The hotel is not far from here so why don't I take you there…," "I know the hotel is a short distance from here and that is precisely why we are gonna come down here," Joanna said sternly. "Mr Anderson,…

"I have already said that it's cool if you want to spend time with us but that won't be today. You have agreed so why are you still trying to make things difficult for me?". "But…," Joanna's piercing glare caused Anthony to swallow back his words. He stood up from the couch without being asked to do so. He led the way to the door. Downstairs, Joanna was surprised to see Chris standing beside the car with the backseat door opened. She looked around and when she had confirmed that it was just the…

Because she hardly leaves the palace doesn't mean that her knowledge is restricted to what is happening in the palace alone. "Did I say, stupid girl?" Tiffany muttered and played with the tip of her ebony hair. "As you can see it's just us and I have said that you can speak without any restrictions if it's just us," Queen Mother Theresa said to make the girl feel relaxed again. Only when they were both relaxed can she execute her plans perfectly. Logan took a sip from the glass of blood dangling…

"When the news about him standing up for a girl surfaced I asked you what was his relationship with the girl but what did you say huh?" He yelled at the guy in a brown shirt standing with his head bowed. "You said he couldn't stand seeing a girl getting bullied in front of him…," "Mr Xavier…," "And what about yesterday's incident when his priceless body got hurt defending the same girl, what bullshit did you give me?" Mr Xavier cut in not letting Raymond talk. "You said this was an act of…
