BXBX NOVEL Chapter 460 The Showdown
"It\'s exactly because I am not insane that is why I didn\'t coat my hands with poison," Joanna said.
"And why would I poison my hands and put my loved ones in danger just because I want to teach you a lesson when I have 1001 ways to do that?" She smirked and diverted her attention to the two women by Laura\'s side.
"Madam Cora, I know that even though anyone else were to reject my offer, you of all people would not do that...," Joanna trailed.
"I know you must be hungry so apart from the cup of Jasmine tea, I will prepare your favourite dish...,"
"You are taunting us because of that lousy power of yours, right? You must feel like you are powerful and can touch the sky hmm?".
"Well, let me tell you the truth that everyone knows about you...," Grandma Cora paused to catch her breath.
"You are nothing but a weakling. A useless scum whose father and slutty mother\'s bloodline doesn\'t run in her veins," Grandma Cora downgraded Joanna just to make her feel like trash.
"Also, you are a bastard who became the laughingstock of the entire Kingdom after her failed transformation on her 18th birthday... You think using those cheap tricks will make you stand out or that people will accord you a bit of importance?" Grandma Cora scoffed.
"Never!" She exclaimed confidently.
"These things will always be a stain on your reputation and there is nothing you can do to change that fact," She concluded.
Instead of losing her temper, the woman\'s words sounded like a comedy to Joanna and this made her chuckle.
"Are you done?" Joanna chuckled.
She bent and dropped the teacups on the table and walked two steps backwards.
"Yes, I am taunting you because I am powerful; powerful enough to defeat three of you in a three-to-one battle, why?" She taunted with her chin held up and her neck cocked to one side.
"This is what the weak always experience and I experienced this shit and so many more ever since I was born so why are you all upset huh?" She smirked devilishly.
Joanna walked two steps to her right so she was standing in front of Grandma Cora.
"Hey, are you trying to say we are weak...,"
"Isn\'t that exactly what all of you are when I am around?" Joanna cut Laura short instantly. Her murderous glares were enough to momentarily keep the annoyed lady in check.
"And Madam whoever told you that my powers are lousy or that I used cheap tricks huh?" Joanna quizzed and raised her right hand in the air.
"Watch and see whether there are any tricks as sophisticated as this. I bet you will never assume I am using cheap tricks after this," She snapped her finger and instantly the lights in the entire Anderson building ceased as if there was a blackout.
Joanna smirked devilishly when she saw their dumbfounded expressions.
The instant she snapped her fingers again the lights came on. It wasn\'t a minute late.
"Maybe you might still have doubts in your mind if this is real or a trick so let me show you something more fascinating," Joanna didn\'t forget to maintain a sweet smile as she did this.
"Bacon, come out of your hiding place now. Your master needs your attention over here," Joanna talked as if she was speaking to a person and not a bird.
It wasn\'t up to two minutes after she finished talking that Bacon flew into the sitting room. It paused right in front of Joanna.
The manner it flapped its wings was as if it was telling Joanna that it was ready to take the centre stage.
"Bacon, I want you to replay the scene of Madam Cora\'s phone call yesterday afternoon with her man. Don\'t forget to make the video clear ok," Joanna caressed Bacon\'s head and moved two steps away.
Bacon\'s eyes glowed blue after she finished giving the orders and almost immediately a holographic screen appeared on the wall where Bacon\'s eyeballs were focused on.
The video of Madam Cora ordering her men over the phone to kill Joanna was displayed on the wall.
The shocked expression on Madam Cora\'s face after the scene finished playing was like something you have never seen.
"B-but.... h-how...," Madam Cora was too dumbfounded to utter a word.
"As you can see, everyone\'s secret in this household is always at my fingertips. I can do whatever I want with it depending on my mood and your actions…," Joanna trailed, her gaze darted from one face to the other.
"If you don\'t want me to display how rotten this family is then all of you will stay clear of my business and mind the way you treat me in this house. Because whether or not you like it I am above every single one of you in terms of power," Joanna threatened.
She turned to walk away but only to pause after she had taken less than five steps from her previous spot.
Joanna spun and gazed in Madam Cora\'s direction.
"One more thing....," She let her words linger to get their attention.
"I indeed wanted to become a full-blood werewolf and transform like my mates because I believed that was the only way to gain my father\'s recognition....," Joanna trailed.
The memory of her secretly trying to shift flowed into her memory.
She shook her head thinking how pathetic she was to look forward to the impossible.
She doubts her father would ever recognise her in this lifetime.
"But heck! Why would I need that right now when I have something which is a hundred times better than his bloodline flowing inside of me?" Joanna beamed and didn\'t forget to cock her head to the side.
Joanna flips her hair and swagerliciously walked to the stairs with a triumphant smile lingering on her beautiful face.
"Oh damn, I forgot something," Joanna halted in the middle of the stairs. She slowly turned and looked at the three ladies still glued to their seats in the sitting room.
As they stared at her, the three ladies wondered what the daredevil girl was up to.
