Chapter 282 Persistent Joanna

Logan wasn't stupid to just wait around and let his cousin trash him. He duck and disappeared from where he stood beside the ancient relics shelf.

He reappeared in the middle of the centre table.

"Grandpa was enraged when he saw the news. He kept suspecting I was the one behind the incident….," Logan trailed. If he wasn't in a dilemma earlier he wouldn't have sold off his cousin to his Grandpa.

"I had no choice but to tell him the truth when he threatened me," He concluded.

"Even at that, how could you just cheaply sell off your cousin like that…,"

"Do you think you would have acted differently if you were in my shoes huh?" He snapped at Doris.

"No matter what your reason was, I don't care. Just wait and see how I will teach you a lesson you will never forget today," Tiffany threatened. Her eyes turned crimson red as she glared at Logan.

She was about to advance towards where Logan stood but Sniper grabbed her hand.

Tiffany shifted her murderous glares to the hand of the guy holding her tightly.

"Miss Tiffany, I would advise that you quietly follow me to your room like Master had ordered…,"

"How dare you touch me with your filthy hand?" She challenged him. She violently flung his hand and retracted her hand.

"Miss Tiffany, if you know what Master had to lose because of your and your friends' foolish acts then you wouldn't be here throwing tantrums just because he ordered to lock you up…,"

"Are you trying to tell me that I should be grateful that I will get locked up in my room just because of what you said?" Tiffany asked, her piercing glares focused on Sniper's face.

Despite her deadly glares constantly shot at Sniper, the guy remained unmoved. He didn't cower away nor did his blank expression change. And this was the most annoying part of the guy, according to Tiffany.

"Too bad, I don't feel the least grateful so what will you do?" She asserted with her chin raised high.

As she turned to head back to the stairs she deliberately bumped into Sniper. As usual, Sniper didn't say anything. He acted as though it was a cold breeze that whooshed passed him.

"She has lost her mind," Logan muttered as he stared up in the direction of a door that just jammed closed.

Sniper returned downstairs to take the girls to the guest room upstairs.

After concluding his task Sniper was seen standing in front of a black door. He raised his hand to knock but a voice came on before he got to do that.

"Come in," A man's voice ushered him in and immediately he entered the room.

Entering the room Sniper walked into the mini sitting room where a man was seen sitting at the centre table.

"Things are not looking nice at all," Sniper started.

"Because of Mr Aidan's act and the incident at campus no newspaper is mentioning the news on the recent killings in the Kingdom. The hot topic has swept underfoot the news about the recent killings," Sniper reported.

Mr Martinez's grip on the glass of wine in his hand tightened after hearing the report. Due to the pressure he applied to his hand the glass shattered into pieces.

"I can't believe that my great plans got a major setback because of my lack of foresight. And this is done by none other than my stupid granddaughter," Mr Martinez muttered.

As Mr Aidan was mulling over his loss, at Amos' home, Joanna was seen drawing closer to where Amos sat.

She tried to steal a kiss from him but the agile guy held her shoulders and kept her under control.

"Joan, stop being stubborn and let it go. Like I said earlier, I wouldn't want to hurt you for anything in this world. Not even my desires can make me go back on my words" He said unyieldingly. He refused to let go despite how hard she was struggling.

"A King's word is equivalent to his promise, are you going back on your words huh?" She demanded.

Of course, he would love to go all naughty with her just like she wanted but he has her bests interest at heart.

[I can see he is determined to reject me with everything within him. What can I do to get him distracted so that I can have my way?]

As she gazed at him, he wasn't aware of the crazy thoughts that were going through her mind.

"Be good Joan, I promise I will make it up to you when you have gotten better," He coaxed. He was so happy when she stopped to struggle with him.

He released her hand at last when he noticed she was calm.

"Ouch!" She cried out while holding her right leg.

In a flash, he jumped up from the couch and squatted in front of her.

"Where does it hurt?" He demanded while examining her legs.

"It hurts!" She whimpered while refusing to let go of her leg.

Seeing that he was distracted trying to find out what was wrong with her, she seized this opportunity and trapped him by wrapping her hands around his neck.

"See, if you had given me what I wanted or didn't go back on your words I wouldn't have resorted to petty tricks like this," Joanna muttered, grinning.

"Joan…," She smeared her lips against his and snuck her wet tongue into his half-parted lips before he could react.

HAPPY NEW MONTH!!! HAPPY NOVEMBER

First of all, I want to thank all of you for all you did last month. A big shout-out to all the readers who tried their best to make sure that we accomplished last month's goals although we ended up not being able to attain the goals.

I know reaching the goals never worked out and this is what I don't know the cause but I am still thankful to each one of you for at least attempting.

As you all know new month like this always calls for new goals so these are our goals for this month.

GOAL 1: Reach a certain number of privileged buyers = 6 chapters mass release. So instead of the usual 1k privileged chapters unlock I have twisted the goal a bit. As long as we reach a certain number of privileged buyers this November 2022, I will give 6 chapters mass release the following month.

GOAL 2: 100 GOLDEN TICKETS = 2 Chapters Mass release. For every 100 GOLDEN TICKETS we get this month I will give 2 chapters mass release i.e if we get 200 GOLDEN TICKETS this month I will give 4 chapters mass release. And these 4 chapters are only for the GOLDEN TICKETS goal.

So what are you waiting for instead of casting all your GOLDEN TICKETS to this book?

Let's Try Our Best To Accomplish This Month's Goals. I Am Challenging Myself By Deliberately Giving Giving So Many Chapters For Each Goal So Also Challenge Your And Let's See Which Of Us Will Win.
