BXBX NOVEL Chapter 757 - JoAnna And Madison (1)
Madison walked toward JoAnna and circled around her. The more she looked at JoAnna, the more she was confident that is the girl from previous day.
She was raging at the thought that this woman had the honor of Aiden placing his arm on her waist… and he leaned lower to… kiss her? And he took her to an event... two of them, together!
At the next moment, sinister smile bloomed on Madison's face. 'What luck! I don't need to wait until tomorrow to get rid of this annoying woman!'
"You…", Madison sneered at JoAnna. "I don't see what is so special about you."
JoAnna raised her eyebrows and looked at Madison wondering who this woman is… and, what does she want?
JoAnna was busy talking with the gardener and didn't notice that Madison caused a commotion earlier, she was too concerned about her ruined garden one day before the wedding, all right? But based on last few seconds, JoAnna suspects that she is facing one of the girls who are after Jeff. Why else would she approach in such a hostile manner by insulting her right from the start?
JoAnna smiled. "Do you care to explain yourself?"
"Why would I explain myself to someone like you?"
"Someone like me?" Even if she is after Jeff, JoAnna didn't expect the woman to be so crude. She sighed, 'Ah! All kinds of women are lusting over my man…'
"Yes. Do you think you are worthy of him? Look at yourself. I don't know what tricks you used to get his attention.", Madison sneered.
"He is a big boy. He can make his own decisions.", JoAnna was confident that they are talking about Jeff, and she has no intention to go into an insulting match with this… scratched up woman.
JoAnna wondered, why is her face full of small cuts? Now that she looks at her, her arms are covered in thin red lines as well. Maybe she has some skin condition that JoAnna didn't hear about. She will look it up, you should never stop learning.
"Give up, before you regret it.", Madison squeezed through her teeth.
"Give up? Listen…" JoAnna took a deep breath to calm down before continuing: "I am future Mrs. White. There is no way I am giving up or regretting anything."
Madison let out a small high-pitched sound before words came out of her mouth: "Future Mrs. White?!! Do you really think that him bringing you as a date means that he will marry you?"
JoAnna paused and blinked few times. "As a date?"
There are many ways to describe how JoAnna is related to Jeff at their own wedding, but 'a date'?
Madison was outraged how this woman dares to pretend. She is confident that JoAnna sees her as a threat and that is why she is denying things. "Don't play innocent! The fact that Aiden is taking you as his date to the wedding does not mean anything!"
JoAnna was stunned for a moment until she realized that this woman mistook her for Sarah. Many people say that they look alike, but this is the first time that someone actually mixed them up.
Receptionist approached Madison. "Miss Turner, my manager is not available at the moment. Do you care to wait for him for filing your complaints about last night?" Receptionist glanced at JoAnna, awaiting some signal if she will see this woman or not.
"Get me your manager's manager then!", Madison squeezed through her teeth.
Hearing receptionist's words, JoAnna got an additional valuable information. She smiled and gave a small nod to the receptionist.
"OK. Let me see what I can do. Please, can you come and be here while we select the best time slot?", receptionist ushered Madison to the reception desk.
JoAnna used this chance when Madison was distracted and took the elevator up.
She felt accomplished seeing that her employees are collaborating with her on this. It seems that for years, her employees are suffering mistreatment by these spoiled heiresses, and they are more than willing to help her teach few of them a lesson they will not forget. JoAnna thought that it's time to give them raises… but she will need to see with financial department first, because if she gives any raises without confirming there is enough money, Jeff will give her a hard time.
She called reception, asked for the details of the noisy woman and what she wants, and told them to let Madison up in her office in ten minutes, and then she made another call…
"Yes?", Aiden answered lazily after few rings from the suite on the fourth floor.
"Who is Madison Turner?", JoAnna didn't want to waste any time, and went straight to the point.
JoAnna's question startled him awake. Aiden glanced at Sarah and was happy that she is still sleeping.
"What did she do now?", he whispered with urgency while scooting out of the bed.
"She has mistaken me for Sarah."
"Great! I mean… good."
"Do you care to explain that outburst just now? And hurry up, she will be in my office in few minutes."
"Just a second…" Aiden went to the bathroom and closed the door. He started the shower to make sure Sarah does not overhear if she wakes up. "She is someone I used to know… and she has her eyes on me. There is nothing more than that. It's just that… after the experience in the cabin in Canada, I am extra careful of any girl who might upset Sarah. I hope you understand."
"I understand.", JoAnna appreciates that Aiden is thinking about not hurting Sarah, but she is not sure if hiding things is the right approach. In any case, they don't have time to talk about it now. "Is there anything else I should know?"
"I told her last night to get lost, and after that Eve took her out. And Sarah knows about that."
"Persistent.", JoAnna is aware that many of these socialite girls have a life mission to marry a rich and powerful husband who can maintain their lifestyle, since on their own they can't sustain it. And because they don't have talents other than spending money and partying, once they find their target, they don't give up easily. What a headache…"How did she get invited?"
"Family invitation due to business relationships. But nothing major that needs to be preserved at any cost."
JoAnna was happy to hear this. "OK. Thanks." JoAnna hanged up and checked time. Bridgette should also arrive any minute.
JoAnna sank in her chair while thinking what the best course of action is. The simplest thing is to remove woman (and her family) from the guestlist for the wedding. However, that is a short term solution, because woman will come back at the next chance she gets. She needs to teach her a lesson. To show her that she is not worthy to think about being matched with her brother-in-law. Depending on how smart and scheming that woman is, there are different approaches that can be taken.
JoAnna reminded herself that she can't deal the final blow. In order for that to be effective, it needs to be delivered by Aiden and Sarah. But that does not mean that JoAnna can't teach this woman a lesson.
JoAnna reached for her phone… she does not have a lot of time…
