BXBX NOVEL Chapter 435 Grandma Cora's Punishment
Joanna dodged the woman's punch and moved away. If she had wanted to hit the woman she would have landed a blow on her right leg and made her unable to use the leg for at least three minutes.
That she only dodged without attacking wasn't seen as a good thing by Grandma Cora. Instead, her actions infuriated the elderly woman.
"You are nothing but a weak idiot that my daughter took pity on and raised for over 16 years. Let's see for how long you can continue dodging," Grandma Cora seethed and charged towards Joanna one more time.
As this took place those upstairs were not aware of it. And this was all thanks to Joanna's overwhelming powers.
She was able to block off all sounds from reaching upstairs so that none would know what was going on and come to Grandma Cora's rescue.
"I have been really lenient ever since you arrived. I tried my best to keep my temper in check but each time you keep crossing the boundary," Joanna expressed. She stood with her back leaning against the yellow wall.
"I thought you would learn your lesson after spending three days at the hospital. But I forgot that a stubborn woman like you will not change easily...," Joanna trailed. She stood straight and dusted off the collar of her shirt.
"Tonight not only did you try to make me lose one of my eyes but you forced my hands. And today I will show you what I am capable of," She grinned and placed her right hand on the yellow wall.
Instantly, things in the sitting room started shaking. The trembling started slowly but increased as time passed.
"I will show you that I swallowed all your insults these past days because I am not a pushover or SERVANT as you always fondly call me but because I was waiting for the perfect time," She raved. Her eyes turned blue.
Following the transformation of her eyes, the trembling transcended from the walls to the chairs, chandeliers and even the floor they stood on.
Grandma Cora couldn't believe her eyes. At first, she thought she was dreaming so she rubbed her eyes to wake herself up.
Even after she rubbed her eyes twice nothing changed. It was then she realised all that happened wasn't a dream or part of her imagination.
Due to the trembling of the ground, Grandma Cora lost her footing. She staggered backwards.
"Maybe you will learn to stay clear of my path after today," She mumbled.
She raised her right hand and snapped her finger in the air. And immediately the chandelier above where Grandma Cora stood fell.
In the process of running to safety, she rolled on the floor. Joanna was about to go on torturing the mean old woman when she heard the door of her father's room creaking open.
She listened to his footsteps and when she heard that he was coming towards the stairs she let go of the wall.
[I can't let him know anything about my powers. I want it to come as a shock to him too so what should I do now to make sure that he doesn't suspect anything?]
Hearing her father's footsteps draw closer made Joanna's hands become sweaty.
Her lips curled into a devilish smile when she saw the shards of the tea cup Grandma Cora threw at her earlier.
[I know what to do now!]
Joanna smiled and disappeared from the sitting room.
She arrived at the sitting room with a glass of water in her hand exactly the time her father spotted Grandma Cora on the floor.
"Madam Cora, this is the glass of water...," The glass cup fell off her hands when she saw the elderly woman still on the floor.
"W-what happened to you?" She asked and rushed to the woman's side.
Her sudden change almost made Grandma Cora believe that she was daydreaming about everything that happened if not for the destroyed chandelier littering the floor.
"Let me help you up," Joanna offered to help. She tries to hold the woman's hand but the angry Grandma Cora beats her hand away.
"Get your filthy hands off me," She yelled. The fear in her eyes didn't escape Joanna's notice.
[This was how it ought to be from the beginning unfortunately I had to possess my powers late]
Joanna grinned and moved backwards.
"And do you mind telling me why you are smiling?" Mr Anderson asked, his fierce glares directed at Joanna's face.
Joanna composed herself and turned to look in her father's direction, "But I wasn't smiling, Sir," Joanna denied sternly.
"But...,"
"Are you ok?" Joanna asked and drew closer to the elderly one more time. She did this just to escape her father's interrogation.
"Let me help you to the couch...,"
"I just said you shouldn't touch me. Are you deaf or do you have some problems with your ears?" Grandma Cora growled, her piercing gaze shot at Joanna.
"If you don't want her help then let me assist you," Mr Anderson offered to help. He left where he stood and moved towards Grandma Cora.
"I don't need yours and your evil daughter's help," Grandmother Cora shunned him.
It was at this moment that Adhara and Laura were seen racing down the stairs.
"Dad, what is wrong with Grandma?" Laura asked politely when she saw the state Grandma Cora was in.
"I met her on the floor when I got here," Mr Anderson replied.
His gaze moved from the shattered chandelier to the items on the floor.
He couldn't help but wonder how the items fell off from their respective places.
"I was about to ask Joanna what took place here," He added. He turned and peered at Joanna's face.
"What happened here and why was your Grandma on the floor earlier?" He demanded sternly.
Joanna didn't respond immediately. She waited for a minute before she began her narration.
