[Dammit! This is so fucking irritating. I better get out of here before I join her in puking too]

She squeezed her face and moved backwards.

"I would have loved to help you but as you can see I am dressed and ready for school. I can\'t afford to get a stain on my clothes so you will have to bear with it…,"

"What fucking school are you talking about?" Grandma Cora shouted and tried to stand up. But only for her to fall on top of her vomit.

Joanna almost pukes seeing the vomit splattered on the woman\'s clothes.

"I can\'t stand it anymore," Joanna said and turned her back on the woman.

She ran out of the dining room without spending a second there.

She was almost in the sitting room when she sighted Adhara from afar.

Apart from her paled face, she noticed that her steps were wobbling and that she was clutching her stomach.

[Whoa… she also ate the food despite her suspicions! Is she outright stupid or what? I wonder where Laura is]

Joanna grinned. She looked beyond Adhara hoping to see Laura but she was disappointed.

"Mother," Adhara called out. The ever-agile woman stepped on her feet and almost sprawled on the tiled floor had she not held the decor stand for support.

She was mad beyond control when she set eyes on Joanna whose evil smirk was visible enough for her to see.

"You devil, this is your handiwork, right?" Adhara screamed. She tried to rush forward but her body wouldn\'t listen to her.

Her body was out of control.

"I was right about what I saw. You added something to our drink but how come you are fine?" Adhara challenged.

The pain in her lower abdomen became too severe. She had to squat and squeeze her stomach tightly to elevate the burning pain a bit.

"Yeah, you got it right when you said this was my handiwork but you got one point wrong," Joanna replied.

A sweet smile lingered on her pretty face as she moved to where Adhara squatted.

"I am standing here unaffected because what I put inside the drink was a supplement and this was to mislead you and also clear your doubts…," she trailed and lowered herself into a squatting position.

"But the real harmful substance was in the meal," she revealed to Adhara\'s bewilderment.

"What!" Adhara\'s eyes almost fell out of their sockets.

"You…," Adhara was momentarily at a loss for words to say to the grinning girl in front of her.

…

The Incident Earlier ***

Joanna was seen pacing about the kitchen with a tray whose contents were a jug of orange juice and three glasses.

[After what happened that day I am certain my suspicious stepmother won\'t go anywhere near what I had prepared. What can I do to make her let down her guard and eat today\'s meal?]

Joanna was in deep thought as she moved about the spacious part of the kitchen.

She was still thinking of a solution when she perceived Adhara walking back to the house.

[I have learned after living with all kinds of demons that nothing works better than a diversion plan. And that\'s what I will use on my dear stepmother. Let\'s see whether she will able to avoid it]

Joanna grinned and hastened out of the kitchen.

Without wasting time she moved to the cupboard in the sitting room where supplements for Anthony were normally kept.

She took out a pill of the supplement and left the place unnoticed by anyone.

Joanna waited until Adhara walked in. And that is the moment she puts on her show.

To make Adhara believe that the juice was poisoned she dissolved the supplement inside the juice.

If only Adhara had known then that everything was a part of her cunning stepdaughter\'s scheme then she would have been cautious.

Joanna\'s acting was flawless and as such everything that followed went as she had planned.

…

"You… arrrghh..." Adhara screamed and clutched her stomach tighter than she did. Beads of sweating started forming on her forehead.

"To make sure that none of you would resist taking a bite out of the food I prepared, didn\'t you notice that I made everyone\'s favourite delicacy…,"

"You are evil," Adhara screamed with tears in her eyes.

"Yeah, I am but at least not as evil as you, the woman who didn\'t hesitate to murder her mate to marry another man," Joanna stated and stood up.

"If you compared what you have done all these years to what I have done you will definitely admit that I am the sweetest angel ever to land on Earth…,"

"No matter what, I will make sure you pay dearly for this. I will ensure you are locked up in prison," She threatened amidst the excruciating pain she was feeling.

"You think anyone will believe what you say…,"

"Of course, they will. After the food is tested, the police will obtain evidence of the poisoning and I can assure you that I will make you rot in prison all your life," Adhara said sternly.

Adhara rolled her eyes and bit her lower lips to prevent the sound from coming out. She didn\'t want to look more pathetic than she already was.

"I, rot in prison?" Joanna snickered and brushed her long hair behind her ear.

"That is your conclusion but let me tell you mine," She said and strolled to the couch.

She sat with her legs crossed.

Joanna sat with her body tilted a bit so she had a better view of the woman still crouched at the same spot.

"I am sure you will call the police and will demand them to conduct a food poisoning test. But unfortunately, they will find nothing harmful in the food after the test is carried out…,"

"That is impossible," Adhara shouted and jumped to her feet.

"I know you will not believe the test result and will accuse the result of being forged. If you are not careful, a sanity test might be conducted on you if you keep insisting…,"

"You are…," Her stomach churned. She tried to swallow the substance trying to flow out of her mouth but she had no control over it.

In seconds, her vomit splashed over the white tiles.

"Yuck! That stinks!" Joanna growled and covered her nose.
