Just like Laura, Adhara was dumbfounded to see that all the dishes she asked for were present on the dining table.

"If you still do not accept that I cooked the entire meal alone then you can check the kitchen\'s CCTV or wasn\'t that installed to monitor my movement in the kitchen?"

Joanna asked boldly.

She walked to where Adhara stood.

"Stepmother, enjoy your meal. I will be in the sitting room," Joanna said.

The evil smirk on her face as she walked passed Adhara didn\'t escape the angry woman\'s eyes.

"Mum, tell me we didn\'t just lose to that stupid girl. Tell me this is not true," Laura said, running her ten fingers into her well-styled hair.

She lifted her head just in time to see one of the maids staring at her intently.

"And what the hell are you looking at?" Laura took out her piled-up frustration on the innocent maid.

She stood up from where she sat and walked to the maid. "Won\'t you scram or do you want to have a taste of being beaten up to the point you can\'t move any part of your body?" Laura glared at the maid with fury eyes.

"I...I… I will take my leave now," the maid stammered. She took to her heels in fear.

While hurrying to leave she almost bumped her head into the wall.

"Mum, we have already prepared everything. I was looking forward to beating her until she bled so what are we gonna do now? What about all our plans?" Laura complained bitterly.

She was too upset to see that her mother was more furious than her.

The difference between the anger was that she was showing how furious she was while her mother was suppressing it.

"Ever since she came back she has been overcoming the traps we set for her, how are we gonna deal with…,"

"Will you just shut the hell up?" Adhara shouted angrily. She used the whip in her hand and hit the pillar startling Laura in the process.

"Mum…,"

"I said to keep quiet," Adhara glared at her daughter who still wanted to talk despite her warning.

"By being loud, are you planning to announce to her that the two of us have been setting traps for her, eagerly waiting for her to fall into our traps?" Adhara asked.

Adhara left where she stood. She went and sat opposite Laura at the dining table.

"She has been lucky these past days that is why she was able to avoid the traps we set for her…," Adhara trailed with a clasped fist.

Meanwhile, as this was going on, Joanna staying in the sitting room was having a blast listening to her enemies fight among themselves.

"Point of correction stepmother, it\'s not that I am lucky like you want to believe the truth is that I am way above all of you now. And that\'s why you can never win against me," Joanna grinned wickedly.

She stretched her hand, picked up her cell phone laying on the centre table and began playing with it.

As she was playing with her cellphone Joanna lost track of time. She was so immersed in going through the pictures in her gallery and didn\'t see Laura approach where she stood.

Noticing how focused Joanna\'s attention was on her cellphone, Laura became interested to know what Joanna was happily giggling at.

She walked closer to where Joanna sat without making a sound.

Laura was so close to seeing what Joanna was doing when Joanna jumped up to her feet.

"Don\'t you know that it is bad manners for you to peep at other people\'s phones?" Joanna said angrily.

"Are you the one to teach me manners or what?" Laura snapped angrily.

"I just wanted to see what you were looking at that made you smile like a little fool. What is bad about it?" Laura said without any remorse.

On realising that Joanna was distracted Laura extended her hand to snatch the phone from Joanna.

Joanna swiftly lifted the phone in the air like she had seen this coming.

"What were you doing on the phone, were you perhaps chatting with a boy? Give it to me, I want to see it?" The persistent Laura shouted as she jumped to take the phone from Joanna\'s hand.

The two continued fighting over the cell phone.

With Joanna not willing to give her the phone Laura refused to give up. She was hell-bent on going through Joanna\'s cell phone.

In the process of struggling the cell phone slipped from Joanna\'s hands and fell on the centre table.

"Get off me," Joanna pushed Laura off her body. Because she applied a lot of force Laura fell on the couch with a loud thud.

Laura didn\'t take this lightly. She jumped to her feet to retaliate. "How dare you use force on me huh?"

She pushed Joanna on the chest as she talked.

"I said I want to go through your cellphone so who are you to fight with me over that?" Laura pushed Joanna once again.

"I am going to go through your cell phone right now whether or not you like it and you are not gonna stop me," Laura concluded authoritatively.

Instead of fighting with her over the phone, Joanna sat down on the couch with her legs crossed.

"What are you…,"

"Don\'t you want my cellphone?" Joanna asked firmly. "You can take it from there if you are capable of doing that".

Joanna crossed her hands and stared at her stepsister.

Laura looked at the cell phone lying on the table and then shifted her gaze to Joanna.

Seeing how Joanna refused to fight over the phone, she couldn\'t help but suspect that something was wrong.

"Do you think you are powerful now that you have returned?" Laura asked.

"No, you are nothing but still that weak loser girl in the past. You are powerless without that stupid bird…,"

"Bacon isn\'t around now and since you said he is my source of strength how about you try picking up the cellphone. Let\'s see whether you can do it," Joanna said provocatively.

She watched as Laura contemplated whether or not to pick up the phone.

"I won\'t argue with an idiot like you. It\'s nothing but a waste of my precious time," Laura said and hurried upstairs.

"Since she believes she is so powerful then she should have picked up the cellphone and see whether her hand wouldn\'t have been set ablaze immediately," Joanna grinned evilly.

She stretched and picked up the cell phone.

Joanna stayed in the sitting room for five more minutes. She decided to take a stroll when she felt bored.

She strolled on the bustling streets for a long time.

Joanna didn\'t know how it happened but when she became conscious of her environment she was stunned to find herself in the forest.

"Why the hell am I here?" Joanna asked as she looked around the environment she has become very accustomed to.

She was about to turn and leave the forest when she felt the presence of someone on top of the tall she was standing underneath.

Joanna slowly raised her head to see who was sitting on the tree. She was very alert as she did this.
