"Hello, Caroline sorry to bother you but is Drey over there?" Joanna asked at the other end. "I have been calling her for hours but she has been ignoring my calls. I had no choice but to call you instead," Joanna lamented. Caroline stared at Audrey to know the next step to take. Understanding the meaning of her stares, Audrey crossed her hands as a signal for her to say no. Caroline hesitated, not knowing whether that was the right thing to do.

"That's why I would advise that you don't look at me so passionately or else…," "Shameless," she spat out the words as she tried to free her hands from his firm hold. But he refused to let go. "You have already called me that so many times that I have lost count of it… also it's not like I will be less shameless if you say so," Amos teased just to get rid of the tension created from their earlier argument with the security guards. "I know that talking to you won't make you stop and that's why I…

"I need to find her and explain things to her…," "And that's exactly what you will do but before that, you need to calm down ok?" Amos said meekly. He let go of her hand, he turned and hold her shoulders instead. "For us to do that you need to be in your right frame of mind because you are the one who is gonna lead us to where you ladies always hang out," He gave a gentle squeeze to her shoulders while staring into her eyeballs.

"What… what.. what the hell are you saying?" Joanna stuttered. "Exactly what you think so…," "I don't peek at others while they bath…," "And how will I know that? I mean I don't stay with you to know what you are capable of right?" Amos asked teasingly. "You… you…," Joanna jerked to her feet with her index finger pointing at the grinning guy.

Joanna frowned at the manner he behaved before she could even finish talking. "Don't you trust me or do you think I am not powerful and skilled enough to help you guys out?" Joanna asked unhappily. Her heavy frown coupled with her displeased tone made Amos pull over at a suitable spot. He diverted his attention to her after he had successfully parked the car. "I trust you Joan but this is not a matter of trust," Amos said softly. "This is a matter of your safety and that's one thing I would never…

Although his sentence was short, it turned out to be the word Joanna needed to feel a bit of inner peace. There was silence in the room after his utterances. "Little rice ball, I don't have a place to spend the night in. You don't mind Big Sister sharing your room with you, right?" Joanna asked. "Of course," Anthony said beaming. Tonight, Joanna had difficulties sleeping but it wasn't as bad as it would have been if she had spent the night alone. The next day Joanna woke up very early. She…

Adhara tried to caution herself also. At that moment concealing the secret Joanna knew was more important than her hatred for her stepdaughter. "You are also a daughter of this household which means you are welcome here anytime," Adhara said with a fake smile. "So don't take whatever she says to heart. She is just furious because her father didn't allow her to hang out with her friends tonight," Adhara tried to appease Joanna despite that everyone in the room knew that her affection was fake. "My…

In front of the tall hotel, Amos was reluctant to leave the moody lady alone especially when he knew what her family were capable of. None will be there to comfort her, instead, they will make her sadder and hurt. "You can go now. I will be fine. It's a promise," Joanna faked a smile as she waved at him to start going. "I will go but I promise I will be waiting for you here very early in the morning," Amos said while waving at her. Looking at his swinging hands and smiling face made Joanna have…

She stared down at her mother. In her eyes, she could see so much curiosity in them. "Go on Audrey, I am listening," Mrs Lopez urged her after seeing her daughter's hesitant look. The angry lady looked away from her mother's curious face. She sat back down on the couch beside her mother. Mrs Lopez adjusted the way she sat so that all her attention was focused on Audrey. "Is the reason you are so furious and went as far as ripping her portraits just because she deceived you…," "Mum, do you…

"I said good for him that he has a big sister who is ready to go to any length for him unlike people like me who don't," Amos replied sadly. His sad expression looked so real that anyone who saw him wouldn't know that he was pretending. "You have over 50 employees working at the palace to attend to every one of your needs so what's there to feel jealous about…," "Indeed I have so many aides at my disposal but unfortunately they are not you. There is only one Joanna Anderson in this world," Amos…
