"What!" Irene shouted disappointedly. "I was hoping to talk to him a bit longer. This is all your fault for interrupting?" Irene accused.

She disconnected the call before Kyle could say a word.

"Hey, Irene, that was my cell phone and not yours so why did you…,"

"I am doing the same thing you have been doing to me anytime I stumbled on your conversation with the King but you refused to let me talk to him," Irene took out her aggression on the innocent Tom.

She stormed out of there immediately.

"What the hell is wrong with her?" Tom muttered as he stared at the cell phone she had dropped on his desk.

Back at their hideout, Amos handed the phone over to Kyle. "Why did you lie to her?" He demanded sternly.

"Aren't you busy or don't tell me you have an entire day to listen to her talk?" Kyle replied without any remorse.

Although his question was simple Amos didn't reply.

"Stop wasting your time and go be with your woman. I won't forgive you if you let anyone steal her away from you…,"

"As if I would need your forgiveness," Amos replied nonchalantly. He turned and walked away without sparing Kyle another glance.

Back at campus, wherever Joanna set foot she became the centre of attention because of the guys following her about.

That didn't change even when they entered the lecture hall. For this same reason, the lecturer couldn't teach properly because of the students' murmurs.

Joanna was too thick-skinned to care about the despicable words said about her.

If there was one thing she wouldn't give her haters that is the pleasure to see her break down because of their insults.

She has grown past that stage.

Joanna was talking and laughing as they descend the stairs in front of the football field. The smile on her face vanished like it never existed when she raised her gaze and saw the man standing at the foot of the stairs with a little boy and a lady by his side.

"What is wrong?" Raymond, who noticed the sudden change in her mood, asked softly.

"Do you feel unwell?" Raymond asked worriedly. He raised his hand to touch her forehead.

"Big Sis!" A boy's tiny little voice filled the air. Raymond paused what he wanted to do and shifted his gaze to where the voice came from.

Just then he saw a boy in white outfit racing up the stairs.

Joanna bent in time before the boy reached where she stood.

The excited Anthony ran into her embrace almost knocking Joanna off balance.

Derrick and Raymond, who were not aware of what was going on, watched the scene with puzzled looks.

"Little rice ball, you are hugging big sister too tightly, can you let go for a minute?" Joanna tapped her brother's right hand as she talked.

"No…," Anthony retorted, shaking his head negatively. "I am afraid you will run away if I let you go," He said, his grip around her neck didn't loosen.

"Stop being naughty and let go except you want to see Big Sister collapse in front of you," Joanna hits his back gently.

Anthony's grip around her neck loosened. He pulled away from her with great reluctance.

"Also, how can I run away when my little bodyguard is here huh?" She said playfully. She lifted her hand and stroked his face affectionately.

"That's what you said last time but didn't you leave without returning for days?" He asked with his lips pouted.

"Big Sister didn't come over to keep you company because she wanted to, so will you stop being angry with me hmm?" Joanna said.

She pouted her lips and blinked repeatedly.

"She is so cute," Derrick muttered. He and Raymond tried not to laugh as she kept on making cute expressions at Anthony.

"When is that brat gonna stop being biased towards her?" Laura standing at the foot of the stairs mumbled with her fists clenched.

If she had the opportunity she wouldn't have hesitated to stab Joanna in the heart at that moment.

"He didn't even smile when he saw me but looked at him laughing like a silly goose. Anyone who witnessed this might think that I am the illegitimate daughter here," Laura said spitefully, seeing how passersby stopped to look at Joanna and Anthony.

"Are you still angry at me?" Joanna asked the little one that wouldn't stop laughing.

"No…," He shook his head negatively.

"That's great," Joanna said. Despite the pains around her legs, Joanna didn't stand up.

If she stood up her brother would have to strain his neck to see her face.

"Ok, so will my little rice ball tell me what he is doing on campus huh?" She asked playfully.

Anthony glanced behind him. He walked two steps closer to where Joanna squatted seeing how intently his father was watching them.

"I was worried about you but Mum and Dad didn't let me leave the hotel so I had to trick Dad into bringing me here by saying I wanted to see what Sister Laura's school looks like," Anthony giggled at the end of his sentence.

"And look at how proud you are to have tricked your father. Who taught you how to be so naughty huh…,"

"It's not my fault that I take after my smart Big Sis…,"

"You…," Joanna was lost in ways to scold the naughty boy.

"Your little brother is so cute. He looks like your little husband instead of your brother," Derrick jokes.

His words made Anthony turn and look at where he stood.

"And who are you?" He demanded fiercely. "Are you one of those people who bully her…,"

"I would never do such a thing so be careful with your words, little man," Derrick denied his accusations immediately.

"I am not little…,"

"Tony, come over here," A man's cold voice made everyone stare at the foot of the stairs where the man stood.

"But Dad…,"

"I said come over here. Don't make me repeat myself," The chilliness in his voice instill fear in Anthony's body but the boy didn't let go of Joanna.
