"That you are among one of the serious students on campus. Seeing how you work so hard shows you are a responsible person, a model students everyone on campus should emulate," Mr Aidan replied.
Although he just complimented her, Joanna didn't feel uncomfortable with him or his words.
She is a witness to how to mean the man standing in front of her was so she couldn't help but find him weird.
Outside the cafe, a lady in black shiny leather trousers smirked, her eyes focused on the man and woman who were talking while looking at each other.
[Now I have set the stage, I can't wait to see how the fat fool takes it up from here]
The lady's grinned darker as she stuck her hand into her matching black leather jacket.
She turned and strolled away in the same mysterious manner she came there.
Meanwhile, as this was happening, outside the front of Audrey's apartment building, she came to stop and instantly go into hiding when she saw a man standing there gazing at the tall building.
Shielded by the white statue, Audrey monitored the man in a black hoodie who was still fearlessly looking at a particular side of the building.
Wanting to know what the person was up to Audrey did everything to make sure that she didn't give her presence away.
She even resorts to holding her breath.
[Why is he here again? And how come he is acting sneakily here? Is he perhaps looking for Anna]
Audrey thought she was well-hidden as she watched the man's every movement. She was still trying to figure out what he was up to when the man in the black outfit turned in a flash and looked at the statue.
"Who is there?" He demanded sternly. He waited for the person to show himself but when that didn't happen he started walking towards the statue.
Audrey stepped away from the statue with her head held high.
"Audrey!" Chris shouted with widened eyes and dropped jaw.
"Yeah, it's me but why do you look so astounded like you were caught doing something terrible?" asked Audrey as she walked to where Chris stood.
"What … what are you talking about?" Chris stammered as he avoided her eyes. At that moment he felt like giving a tight slap to his face for acting like a fool.
"Seeing how you are stammering I guess I was right and this leads me to my real question…," Audrey trailed. She moved a little to the right so that she and Chris were standing face to face.
"Why are you lurking around here?" Audrey asked, her eyes fixated on him.
"You don't own this…,"
"Also don't give me the bullshit that this place doesn't belong to me because I won't let you off easily if you don't tell me the reason you are here," Audrey said. Her fierce expression was enough to make Chris believe that Audrey wasn't joking around.
"I will call the police. Apart from me, I am sure other residents saw you lurking around so let's see what you will tell the police?" Audrey said with her chin lifted a bit higher.
"Hey, Audrey!" Chris exclaimed. He looked around when he realised that he talked too loudly.
"Let's see whether you will choose to deal with the police instead of me?" Audrey said as she blinked her eyes.
She waved her cell phone in the air when Chris wouldn't do as she said.
"I had thought that you would find dealing with the police bothersome due to your position… but I will take your silence that you choose to deal with the police more than me," Audrey said.
She lowered her raised hand and started punching numbers into the cell phone.
In a flash, Chris snatched the cell phone from her.
"And what do you think you are doing?" Audrey asked with furrowed eyebrows.
Chris hid the cell phone behind his back seeing Audrey bring her right hand towards his direction.
"I will tell you why I am here but don't call the police," Chris conceded defeat before things got out of hand.
Dealing with her will be much better than dealing with the police.
"Shoot," Audrey ordered as she backed away from him.
[I can't tell her that I came here to check on the King or else I will give his Majesty's identity away. He will not hesitate to slit his throat if he dares ruin the King's plan]
Chris stared blankly as he tried to come up with what to tell Audrey to save himself from her clutches.
"Hey, what are you waiting for?" Audrey waved her hand at his face.
"I came to check up on Miss Joanna following his Majesty's orders…,"
"Didn't the news say that the King had gone to the human world for an important meeting so where did you get the orders from?" Audrey asked, her suspicious glance focused on Chris' face.
"Also, you are his right-hand man so why are you still here? Shouldn't you be with him?" Audrey added. Her piercing glares made Chris uncomfortable.
"He was worried about her, that is why he ordered me to stay behind and look after her… As you know he loves her more than he loves himself," Chris said as he started approaching the entrance of the tall building.
"With me around what could possibly happen to her? Besides, Anna isn't that weak girl we knew in the past. Even without us, she is capable of protecting herself," She replied while following him closely.
"You can never understand the heart of a person who is in love. He can never stop worrying about the one he loves no matter how strong or capable she is…,"
"And why do you act like you are the one who is in love?" Audrey cut in sharply.

HAPPY NEW MONTH!!!
HAPPY SEPTEMBER ????????????
Hello amazing readers, happy new month once again. It's a new month and as you all know, it's also time to set new goals but before we dived into our goals for this month, I have something to tell you guys.
Guess what????
I just received my first review after a long time, yay!!!
And can you guess when I got this review?
Surprise... I got it on the 1st of September. I am so happy right now.
Because of the review, I feel so optimistic about this month. I have this amazing feeling that more surprises are gonna come my way this September 2022 from you guys.
Guys please prove me right and surprise me by completing the goals listed below.
One more thing before I list our goal for September, I just want to say a big thank you to all my readers who supported me exceptionally last month.
Thank you and let's do even better this month. GOALS FOR SEPTEMBER, 2022.
GOAL 1: 1K (1,000) = 6 chapters mass release. As long as we reach 1,000 privileged chapters unlocked this month, this lovely author here is gonna surprise you guys with 6 chapters mass release.
Please, guys, support me to reach this particular goal this month. I promise I will be good to all of you.
Also, you don't have to buy the highest privileged tier if you can't afford it. No matter the tier you purchase as long as you unlock the privileged chapters daily, this author here is gonna be forever grateful to you.
GOAL 2: 50 GOLDEN TICKETS = 2 chapters mass release. Give me all your GOLDEN TICKETS and you won't regret it, everyone, I will make sure of it.
GOAL 3: 100 Power Stones = 3 chapters mass release. Guys, I realised recently that there is a mistake I have been making concerning this particular goal.
The power stone goal is a weekly goal and not a monthly goal. And this is because the power stone ranking gets renewed every month.
Now you know this, then what are you waiting for? Give me all your power stones and stand a chance to get 3 chapters mass release every week.
P.S: Don't forget that there is also a reward attached to SUPER GIFTS so send the gifts coming... (Coughs) I won't reject it if you decide to send me a MAGIC CASTLE or a SPACECRAFT.
Your dearest author loves you all very much ❤️❤️❤️.
Let's hear your confession, do you love me too?
