Chapter 572 Throw Her In The Dungeon

"Anthony, that is enough hmm," Mrs Parker scolded him. She reached out her hand and tried to pull him down from Raymond's body after she noticed that they were beginning to garner attention.

"But..."

"There is no but little boy. I am afraid that you are gonna keep him and us here all night if I let you have your way," Mrs Parker said unyieldingly. She made him let go of Raymond.

"Also don't forget that your Big Sis left you in my care. With Joanna not around you are to listen to me ok," Mrs Parker reprimanded the boy by her side who was currently throwing a tantrum because she didn't let him have his way.

"Speaking of Joanna, where is she?" Raymond, who was searching for the perfect time to bring up what brought him there, asked.

"Big Sis went to..."

"Joanna left first because she had something else to attend to," Mrs Parker cut in abruptly. She prevented Anthony from saying what he shouldn't.

"She left?" Raymond muttered. His glowing face fell instantly after Mrs Parker's statement.

None spoke for close to two minutes after Raymond's rhetorical question.

"Kyle and I will take our leave now," Audrey informed. She looked away from Raymond's sad face.

If this was the past she would have tried to help him out and that was because back then she wanted Joanna to end up with Raymond rather than Kayden.

Now she knows better. Yes, she likes Raymond. He wasn't only handsome but caring and gentle. None in her right senses would dislike a great guy like him.

However, to her what Joanna wants comes first right now.

Maybe that was just how love was. Its grading was very different from that of the world.

"Get home safely, everyone," Audrey continued. She held Kyle's hand and together they strolled away after he had bid his goodbye.

Meanwhile, inside the black car driving on the bubbling streets, Joanna kept gazing at Kayden's sideline but he wouldn't spare her a glance no matter how deliberate she acted.

He kept staring at the streets and refused to utter a word to her. He behaved as if she was invisible and this hurt her greatly.

She couldn't believe that he was the same guy who went to great lengths to be by her side.

Kayden took pleasure in gazing at her face. He teased her at every slightest opportunity. That was the kind of person she knew him to be and not the one beside her who is doing everything to avoid her.

"Are you still mad at me?" Joanna implored, her eyes fixed on his face even though he was still gazing outside.

She waited for him to talk, however, he continued to remain silent.

"I know you are mad at me and I understand why you are this way because I would have likely acted the same way if I were in your shoes..." Joanna trailed off. She silently wished he would turn and peered at her face.

At least that way she would be able to read his mood even though he continued to ignore her.

"I accept your anger towards me but will you please say something?" Joanna pleaded in a soft tone.

"If you want, you can yell and even curse at me, I will take it all, however, can you speak to me hmm?" Joanna coaxed. She reached out her hand and held his hand but he didn't react.

Joanna tried harder but the result was not different.

[It looks like he is really mad this time around. What am I gonna do or say now to make him feel better?]

Joanna was in deep thought as she gazed at Kayden's handsome face.

An hour later, the car pulled over at the King's parking space where a dozen maids in their blue and white uniforms and guards in black outfits were already waiting for him.

After Kayden came out of the car he turned towards where Josephina and the other maids stood in a row.

"According to the palace rules, she is to first wait at the main hall. I want you and the other maids to escort her there," Kayden ordered.

He turned to leave but Joanna grabbed his hand and pulled him back.

"Kay, wait," Joanna blurted, forgetting that she was in the palace and not in the forest or campus where she was always casual with him.

The way the other guards reacted to her action wasn't funny at all. It was a scene she would remember for a long time.

"What insolence!" The guard who wore a different uniform from the other guards muttered, his deadly glares shot at Joanna who had been seized by three guards.

For a second Josephina and Chris were too shocked to react. They couldn't believe their eyes to be precise.

"Have her thrown into the dungeon immediately," He commanded. His worst mistake was that he didn't look at Kayden as he gave out this order.

If he did then he wouldn't have had the guts to behave the way he did after seeing Kayden's murderous stares which were concentrated on his face.

"What did you say?" Kayden demanded fiercely.

"I asked the guards to throw her in the dungeon," The guard was stupid enough to reply.

"How dare she touch His Majesty's sacred body?" He added angrily.n(.o-)v)(e--l-/b)(1./n

"How dare you disrespect His Majesty's esteemed guest?" Chris reprimanded the guard who still hasn't seen anything wrong with his earlier statement.

lightsnοvεl "She tainted his Majesty's body and as such should be severely punished for this. To be precise, taking her life wouldn't be enough to pay for her crime..."

"Chris, you know what to do with the likes of General Morgan and the three guards right?" Kayden cut in. He shifted his fierce gaze to the guards who still hadn't released Joanna.

"Yes, Your Majesty," Chris replied with his head bowed. He watched as the King strolled off, accompanied by the other guards.

Joanna watched him walk away until she could no longer see him or his shadows.

"Christopher, what did His Majesty mean by his earlier statement?" the guy whom Kayden referred to as General Morgan quizzed in confusion.
