[You want to eat breakfast prepared by me right?- No problem, I will give that to you but I will make sure today\'s breakfast is one you will never forget in a hurry]

Joanna slowly stood up.

"I will go get breakfast ready now," Joanna said and left the sitting room.

As this happened, other members of the family were in their respective rooms going about their own stuff.

Two maids approached the kitchen after Joanna left.

"None of you is allowed to help her," She ordered. "If anyone disobeys my order that person will have to deal with me," She threatened.

The two maids returned to their previous positions. They dared not utter a word to the woman whose temper they were well aware of.

"You think you are doing me a bad thing by forbidding them to help me? Hehe... Never in your wildest imagination would you know that you are digging your own grave by doing this," Joanna mumbled.

An evil grin crept onto her face.

As she went about preparing breakfast, none stepped into the kitchen. And this was all the handiwork of the cruel woman who didn\'t trust the workers.

She did everything to make sure that none in the mansion offered Joanna any help.

In Mr Anderson\'s bedroom, Adhara stood in front of the door watching her husband dress up.

"Honey, do you mind asking my mother to take things easy with Joanna?" Adhara asked, her gaze focused on the man standing in front of the dressing mirror.

Mr Anderson paused what he was doing. He turned and peered at the woman standing behind him.

He had thought someone imitated her voice. But turning around he was stunned to see that she was the one.

In the past, if he asked her to take things easy with Joanna she would be furious. Her anger always lasts for a day or days.

He wondered what she was up to this time around.

Was this some kind of test to confirm whether he cared about his illegitimate child?

Adhara moved towards where he stood. "I spoke to her about this but you know how she is. I am sure she might consider it if you were the one to tell her this...,"

"Handling the affairs in our home has always been your responsibility. I won\'t interfere and I have no intention of doing that in the future...,"

"But that vicious girl might harm us if no one stops mum from provoking her," Adhara blurted without thinking.

"Who will harm whom?" Mr Anderson narrowed his eyebrows.

"Your...," Adhara paused what she wanted to say when Joanna\'s threats popped into her head.

[She has warned me not to reveal anything or else she will expose me. The darn girl will ruin everything I have worked so hard to build all these years. I can\'t let this happen no matter what]

Adhara brought her hands to her back. She tried to control her emotions. She lifted her head and looked at his face after she was certain that her emotions were under control.

"I mean that mother might harm her if we don\'t do something about it...,"

"And since when did you or anyone else anyone in the house care about whether or not she got hurt or even killed..,"

"But...,"

"If you have no better thing to discuss with me then I would advise you to go check up on Anthony to make sure he is set for school," He ordered.

He turned his back on her immediately.

His emotionless expression was as if it was someone else\'s daughter he was talking about and not his own flesh and blood.

With her husband not willing to help her, Adhara was lost at what to do.

She left the room without feeling any better.

Some minutes later Adhara was seen descending the stairs. The first place her attention went to as she reached the sitting room was the direction of the kitchen.

"She is preparing our breakfast so there is no need to keep looking," Grandma Cora sneered. She didn\'t take her eyes off the series playing on the television.

"Mother, the chef is there to prepare our meal so why did you...,"

"And since when did the chef start preparing the meals eaten by this family?" Grandma Cora questioned. The way she glared at Adhara was as if she was looking at her enemy.

"Also, what the hell is wrong with you...,"

"Just like Laura, she also has morning classes so why don\'t you let her leave the remaining work...,"

"If you are gonna speak up for that daughter of a slut then I will suggest you don\'t say a word," She said with a tone of finality.

Since childhood, she has always been proud of having a mother who got her back at everything. But for the first time, she wished her mother was flexible like every other mother out there.

That way she would be able to avert whatever evil plan her stepdaughter was scheming.

"I was having a great time before you arrived but only for you to ruin my mood," Grandma Cora retorted. She stood up from the couch.

"I wonder when this spell she used on you will wear off so that I can get my real daughter back," She hissed and tried to stomp away.

Arghh!!

A scream followed by a loud thud made Adhara jump to her feet. Everyone except the guards rushed to the sitting room to see what happened.

Joanna stood in front of the kitchen and watched the commotion taking place in the sitting room.

"Mother, are you ok?" Adhara asked and squatted in front of the woman about to slip off the couch.

Adhara quickly helped the woman who fell on the couch sit well.

"Granny!" Laura stood upstairs, in front of her room screaming.

Soon she, Anthony and her father were standing close to the centre table.

"Mum, what is wrong with Granny?" Laura inquired. She hastened to her mother\'s side and squatted beside her.
