Chapter 498 Boss Lady's Time



She kept her gaze glued on the unfazed Tiffany.

"Do you think your secret will be safe by holding her hostage?" Tiffany scoffed, her head held high as she strolled towards where Joanna stood.

"With your help, I was able to gather such a large crowd and there are also cameras around...," Tiffany smirked evilly and pointed at the students who were recording everything.

"What if I disclose the secret I just found out to them and those watching...,"

"You wouldn't dare!" She retorted.

CRACK!

A bone's crack was accompanied by the scream of the lady whose neck Joanna's grip had become firmer due to Tiffany's threat.

"Watch me...,"

"Tiff, is it your plan to use this opportunity to get rid of me?" Nora, who discovered not long ago that she was unable to do anything despite her powers, yelled, desperation clearly visible in her tone.

"Is that why you keep provoking her?" She accused her.

Nora, who has always been scared of losing her immortality at a young age, was certain that any more provocation from her friends would only cause her to suffer more.

She might even end up losing her life.

"If I have annoyed you in any way, I will apologise so please just spare me hmm?" Nora pleaded with Tiffany.

"She won't lay a finger on you. I will make sure of that," Tiffany assured, her neck cocked to the side and her chin held up.

"You think so?" Joanna asked. An evil smirk plastered on her face as she lowered her blazing right hand aiming for Nora's chest.

"W-w-what do you think you are doing?" Sophie stuttered, her eyes wavered. She continuously shook her head in disapproval.

She moved forward to rescue Nora from Joanna's clutches but only for Audrey to jump in and block her path.

"You will have to go through me before you can get to her," Audrey informed, her crimson eyes shot at Sophie.

"Guys, do you want to hear a secret?" Tiffany asked. Her eyes moved from one curious face of the onlookers to the other.

Her words made Joanna pause her right hand which was some inches away from Nora's exposed chest.

"Actually, the King is....," Joanna flung Nora away and appeared in front of Tiffany.

"You asked for this," Joanna growled and swung her right hand towards Tiffany's guts.

Tiffany blocked Joanna's attack with her right hand as if she had seen this coming.

That her first attack was a failure didn't stop Joanna from attacking Tiffany more.

One of the advantages Tiffany had over her friends was the fact that she wore trousers and boots, unlike her friends who wore skirts, and gowns and were in high heels.

"Forget about leaving here alive if you do not say what I want to hear," Joanna yelled. She skillfully manoeuvred her way out of Tiffany's grip and attacked her with her blazing right palm.

ARGGHH!

Tiffany screamed in anguish, her right hand clutching her chest that Joanna hit with the flames.

She moved backwards, almost colliding with Doris.

"Are you alright?" Doris held and made her stabilize herself on the floor.

The others circled her instantly.

"What is wrong?" Sophie demanded. She was forced to remove Tiffany's hand, still tightly clutching her chest.

Her jaw dropped and her eyeballs widened the moment she set eyes on the burnt mark on Tiffany's chest.

"What...," Fear flickered in Nora's eyes. She staggered backwards when she recalled that this would have been her fate had Joanna placed her blazing palm on her chest.

"I won't spare you," Tiffany groaned. She slowly staggered to her feet, her blazing eyeballs shot at Joanna whose expression remained emotionless.

"Get her," She yelled. Sophie and Doris charged towards Joanna.

"What are you waiting for?" Tiffany shouted at Nora.

Furious, she pushed the hesitant lady to where the battle took.

Joanna stood at the same spot with her hands wrapped just below her boobs.

"Anna...," Audrey, whom Joanna told not to intervene, called to her when she saw that Joanna had not taken a stance.

She became anxious when Joanna didn't budge despite the that the furious ladies were about four steps away from her.

eαglesnovel`c,om Just when she made up her mind to defy Joanna's word and interfere in the fight, she saw her best friend soar into the air to the awe of everyone.

Everyone raised their heads as they watched the distance between them and the lady in the air grew wider.

"Wow... Is that really my best friend?" Audrey's eyes sparkled, her eyes glued on the figure floating in the air with her hands folded at her back.

"You have always said you are powerful right...," Joanna trailed, a smug smile plastered on her pretty face.

"How about coming up to catch me... Let's see whether you are as powerful as you have always claimed," Joanna taunted. She didn't give a damn that she was being videoed.

She has held her cool for so long. All her self-control had long been exhausted but she continued to keep her cool whenever she recalled the title of the man she was in love with.

Now that his secret is on the verge of coming to light, she could no longer keep her cool. She will go to any length to protect him in the same way he is doing for her.

"What are you waiting for huh?" Joanna mocked.

"Don't tell me you can't do such an easy thing as this?" Joanna grinned.

"If you can't do such an easy thing then would I be asking for too much if I asked you to do this?" She asked. 

She reached her hand towards where she dropped her red handbag just beside where Sophie stood.

Instantly the red bag flew into Joanna's outstretched hand further throwing everyone into shock.

Meanwhile, as this was taking place Mr Fin whose secretary was making reports paused the instant Mr Fin's cell phone rang.
