BXBX NOVEL Chapter 445 Joanna Left Her Father Dumbfounded
He choked the words back into her throat not letting her expose him in front of his wife.
"I just said shut the hell up Joanna Anderson. Don\'t make me do something we\'ll both regret," He muttered.
His bloodshot eyes focused on the face of the lady who was giggling instead of begging for mercy.
"Honey, what do you think you are doing?" From where she stood at the top of the stairs, Adhara shouted the instant she saw Mr Anderson choking Joanna.
She disappeared and resurfaced beside where her husband stood.
"Let go already," Adhara commanded and pulled Mr Anderson away from Joanna.
"Are you alright...,"
"Save your hypocrisy to yourself, stepmother because I don\'t need it," the angry Joanna shoved Adhara\'s hand away before it could touch her neck.
She tilted her head and peered at her father\'s face after she had put Adhara in her rightful place.
"A man who would not hesitate to strangle his daughter to death just to save his skin doesn\'t deserve to be called a father by such a child," Joanna muttered, her fist clasped.
"If you are looking for a daughter to do every of your bidding she is lying just upstairs and is not far away....," Joanna trailed off and chuckled while holding her bruised neck.
"Because you are so wrong if you think I will dance to every one of your tones. That is not even possible. If you want me to treat you in the same way she does then I will suggest that you try being a better father in your next life....,"
"Hey, how could you speak to your father like that...,"
"I wasn\'t talking to you so mind your business except you want to lose the ability to speak for a month," Joanna threatened and stomped away from the sitting room.
"What demon has possessed her?" The dumbfounded Mr Anderson asked, his eyes still settled on Joanna\'s moving back.
"Do we need to bring her to see a psychiatrist or an exorcist for an exorcism?" He mumbled.
"That is not a bad option so calm down a bit hmm," Adhara coaxed. She held his hand and led him to the couch.
After she sat him down she squatted beside him and gazed at his face.
"I waited for you to return until I ended up falling asleep on the couch so do you mind telling me why you didn\'t come up to our room?" Adhara asked in a soft tone.
"Is there a problem at the office...,"
"Yes, we might have lost investors who were ready to invest billions of dollars in our company but I am more worried about what our home is turning into than the problems at the office," Mr Anderson expressed.
Adhara raised an eyebrow, confused at what her husband was trying to convey. She stood up and sat beside him.
"What do you mean?" She asked in confusion.
He turned and sat in a way that he was gazing at Adhara\'s face.
"Our family was a harmonious one. Danger was always far away from us in the past but recently things have been happening that are making me worried about what on Earth is going on," Mr Anderson expressed.
"It first started with Joanna\'s presume death, then her ghost and near rape incident...," He trailed and look away from her face.
"That is not all but our porch got blown up by some unknown people the police can\'t find until today. Laura became the subject of ridicule after the incident in the taxi. The three of you got hospitalized for three days but after so many tests were carried the cause of the poisoning was not found. And just yesterday, Tony almost died because of....,"
"What do you mean by Tony almost got killed yesterday?" Adhara jumped to her feet.
Adhara waited for Mr Anderson\'s reply but the man didn\'t say a word to her.
"Stop keeping quiet and tell me what exactly happened," Adhara\'s desperation showed in her voice.
"Anderson!" Adhara called him by his name when he continued to keep quiet about her.
Mr Anderson could no longer maintain his silence when his anxious wife kept pressing for answers.
He relayed what happened to Anthony in front of his school to Adhara with video clips to prove his words.
"If not that Joanna came to his rescue, our boy would have been lying in the mortuary now," Mr Anderson muttered, his fists clasped.
"Has the police caught the one responsible for this?" Adhara questioned.
"Investigations have been conducted but no one knows how the mysterious car moved on its own," Mr Anderson replied.
Nothing pained him more than the fact that the one who almost killed his only beloved son was not caught.
He would have rained hell and brimstone on such souls if he knew who it was.
Adhara looked in the direction of Joanna\'s room when she thought about what her husband said.
[Although I hated to admit it, I knew without a doubt that my son will always be safe with her. I owe her this one and I will make sure I repay her in the future]
Adhara looked away.
This would have been the perfect opportunity for Joanna to get rid of the only heir to the family.
But Joanna looked beyond the years of hatred she had shown her and saved her only son. She couldn\'t be more grateful and indebted to her.
As Adhara and her husband returned to sleep, she felt so sentimental that she couldn\'t bring herself to fall asleep.
Because she couldn\'t fall asleep, she went downstairs early and oversaw that the house was cleaned.
Afterwards, she instructed the chef on what to prepare for breakfast. And she watched the lady as she cooked.
For the first time in a long while Adhara oversaw that everywhere was cleaned and that breakfast was prepared before everyone woke up.
The last person to come downstairs after everyone was asked to come to the dining room was Joanna.
About ten minutes after everyone was in the dining, Joanna came downstairs. She made her way towards the exit.
"Where are you going? Weren\'t you informed that breakfast is ready?" a lady\'s familiar voice made Joanna halt.
