[As much as I detest the thought of sending my beloved son to stay with her, I must admit that he will be safe with her. She will take better care of him than the maids would have done in my absence. As much as it pains me to admit it, I know she loves my son way too much to hurt a hair on his body]

Adhara clasped her fist and clenched her teeth.

"Of course, I will," Joanna grinned. She made sure Adhara saw her victorious smile.

"Adhara, is something wrong with you? Why did you agree to let the heir of the Anderson family live with this thing?" She asked and threw Joanna a disgusted look.

[I swear if this old hag is not careful I will make sure she will never be able to behold the light of the day for the rest of her life]

Joanna tried not to do anything nasty after what the elderly woman did.

"Allowing Anthony to stay at home with the maid will only make us worry about him. In fact, he might insist on staying with us at the hospital if he learns about what happened. But all these problems will be lessened if he stays with her for a few days," Mr Anderson, who doesn't love to talk much, said in a bid to defend his wife.

"My wife made the right decision so there is no need to scold her," He concluded sternly.

"You are talking as if I am crazy," Madam Cora hissed.

"Would I have to put up with this daughter of a mistress if you were faithful to my daughter?" She expressed her anger.

Joanna used their distraction to slip out of the ward without being noticed.

She didn't walk far away when she saw Laura coming towards her direction in a wheelchair.

From how immersed her attention was on her cell phone she knew Laura wasn't aware of her presence.

Joanna deliberately walked and stood in front of the wheelchair being pushed by one of their maids.

Feeling the wheelchair abruptly come to a halt, Laura frowned and lifted her head to confirm what happened.

"What the hell are you doing here?" She shouted in anger.

"I know you are furious but lower your voice. Don't forget you are at the hospital," Joanna scolded.

"And who the hell are you to tell me what to do? Are you my mother huh?" She snapped.

"I came to the hospital to check on how you are doing after I saw the clip of what happened to you in the taxi...,"

"I don't want to ever hear you mention the word TAXI around me," Laura raved. She clutched her cell phone until the screen cracked.

"I understand your feelings. I am sure even I would have been more furious than you are if I were in your shoes," Joanna pretended to care while she was laughing within.

[I am sure you must now understand how I felt when you poured stinky water on my uniform. You and your mother forced me to go to school in that terrible state. This is karma in the worst form]

Joanna clenched her fists when she recalled the incident in the past.

She was set and ready to go to school. Just because she stepped on Laura's foot. The same foot she had stuck out for her to fall.

Laura had bathed her from head to toe with stinky water that was kept for days.

As if that wasn't enough punishment she was made to go to school in that state. Because she had an examination, she had no choice but to go to school smelling stinky.

For the entire day and beyond she was the object of ridicule because of that singular act of theirs.

"I wonder if yours, Madam Cora and stepmother's sickness has anything to do with the breakfast you had...,"

"But you prepared the breakfast so how could anything ever go wrong...," Laura paused midway. She gave a second thought to what Joanna had said.

The memory of what happened the last time her mother forced Joanna to prepare breakfast popped into her head.

"I remember she threatened to poison us for real if we don't mind our own business so don't tell me...," Laura's mouth dropped open when reality dawned on her.

Memories of what happened in the morning replayed in her head. Although she was in her room she overheard her Grandmother telling Joanna to prepare breakfast.

Joanna protested but her Grandmother insisted that she must be the one to prepare breakfast for the household.

"D-don't tell me you... you are responsible for this?" Laura asked with trembling lips.

She was scared that her suspicions would be proved right.

"How come you are so smart today hmm?" Joanna grinned devilishly. " I mean it normally takes you some time to connect the knots...," Laura's cell phone fell off her hand, forcing Joanna to pause her sentence.

Still maintaining her evil smirk Joanna bent and picked up Laura's broken phone.

"Take care of your belongings. Don't go around dropping things or you might get into big trouble," Joanna scoffed. She reached out her hand and placed the cell phone on Laura's thighs.

"Actually, you don't have to give me that look. The truth is I won't retaliate as long as none of you provokes me...," Joanna trailed.

"And this is why I will suggest you talk some sense into your old hag, especially whenever she loses her cool. I don't know when I will lose my temper and kill her if she doesn't mind her business," Joanna warned.

Her deadly smile was one Laura has never witnessed before.

"You did...,"

"What are you girls seriously talking about on the pathway?" A voice behind her made Laura look beyond Joanna.

"Dad she is...,"

"I was just telling Laura that I will let her lecturers know about her condition," Joanna cut in. She didn't need to say anything to Laura for her to know what to do. Her murderous glares passed the message.

"You girls were never close enough to discuss things as friends do so what are you talking about?" Mr Anderson demanded. He shot them a doubtful glance.
