Chapter 240 Audrey's Confrontation

"Audrey, you hit me quite hard. I almost thought I did something wrong and that is why you were mad at me," Amos, who was pushed about five steps away, said.

He rubbed his right side where Audrey had landed the punch at.

"Be more gentle next time or I am afraid you might break my ribs…,"

"And I can't promise that it will end with just breaking your ribs the next time I see you close to my best friend again," Audrey said bellowed. She reached out her hand and yanked Joanna to her side.

Joanna, who didn't know what was happening, frowned at her best friend's words.

She pulled closer and whispered," Drey, I know I didn't disagree when you said you were going to assess him tonight but let me make it clear that you are going too far with your assessment".

She moved backwards and faked a smile seeing the way Amos stared at them.

"Yeah, I am afraid that with how furious I am, I will forget his identity and do something terrible to him so let's go," Audrey said.

She tried to pull Joanna along but Amos extended his hand and grabbed Joanna's left hand.

Audrey glanced behind when Joanna didn't budge. Her frown deepened on seeing that Amos was the cause.

"Although I don't know why you are suddenly acting this way, I won't let you take her away. We were in the middle of a conversation if you may know," Amos said firmly.

Not even Audrey's murderous glares could make him release Joanna's hand.

"How dare you act so proud after what you did?" Audrey, who only wanted to take Joanna away, lost her cool at that instance.

"Drey…,"

"You didn't only lie to us but you dared to deceive me and Anna with a fake identity. Haven't you had enough fun pretending to be who you are not?" Audrey shouted.

Her angry voice attracted the attention of others who were busy minding their businesses.

Audrey's angry words echoed in Joanna's head a few seconds after she finished talking.

Her mouth dropped open when realisation dawned on her.

[Don't tell me she knows that he is Kayden… But how did she discover this?]

Joanna's eyes widened as she stared at her fuming best friend's face.

"I lied and deceived her? What are you talking about?" Amos asked, still not getting the point Audrey was trying to make.

"Quit pretending because your cover has been blown," Audrey snapped. She used his momentary distraction and pulled Joanna to herself.

Audrey turned to look at her speechless best friend. "Anna, he not only lied and deceived you but he also cheated you big time so you need to stay far away from him starting from this minute. He is not to be trusted…,"

"Audrey, I can tolerate your harshness because I can see you are upset but one thing I won't tolerate is you slandering my name," Amos cut in sharply.

"Also, I respect the fact that you are her best friend; someone very special to her but you can't tell me what to do. Whether I want to be with her or stay away from her is left for me to decide. You have no right to order me around…,"

"And I can't believe this is coming out from the mouth of a double identity man like you. I would have fallen for that bullshit had I not discovered the truth today but unfortunately, you have failed," Audrey said.

Noticing that things were going to get out of hand if she didn't interfere, Joana tried to pull Audrey away but she didn't move an inch.

"Joan, do you want to know what other identity he has?" Audrey asked, diverting her gaze to Joanna's face.

[She can't possibly want to reveal the truth that Amos is Kayden in front of all these people right]

Joanna's gaze moved from one curious onlooker's face to the other. Surrounding them were over twenty people.

The news will spread like wildfire if Audrey dared to reveal that the one standing in their midst was the King.

[Drey, please don't do it]

Joanna shook her head in disapproval seeing Audrey open her mouth to speak.

"The truth is that he had been deceiving us. His real name and identity are Kay…," Joanna lifted her hand and covered Audrey's mouth out of desperation.

"Don't do it," Joanna mumbled as she shook her head in disapproval.

Audrey was taken aback by her best friend's actions. It didn't take her up to a minute to connect the loose ends.

No matter how good his disguise was, how could Joanna who is always by his side not discover the truth about his real identity?

"You knew about this?" Audrey asked in disbelief even after already guessing the answer.

"You were in this together. How could you do that to me, Anna?" Audrey asked. She pushed Joanna's hands away before she could cover her mouth once again.

"Drey, let me….," Audrey staggered backwards before Joanna could hold her hand.

"You are the first person I thought about when I discovered the truth. I was in pain when I imagined how heartbroken you were but I guess my worries were not needed in the first place. You were in cohort with them. You joined hands with them and deceived me…,"

"Drey, it's not as you think so let me explain…,"

"I said don't touch me," Audrey spat out the words not allowing Joanna's hand to touch her.

She turned and disappeared into the crowd before Joanna could get the chance to explain.

"Don't just stand there. Help me out," Joanna turned and addressed the astonished Amos.

He believed he had hidden the truth well. He was extra cautious so that none would know about his double identity.

He was in shock as to how Audrey found out the truth.

"What are you still looking at huh?" Joanna shouted angrily. How she wished she didn't lose her teleportation ability.

All she would have done was disappear and appear in front of her.

Amos didn't allow her to talk for the third time. He grabbed her right hand and together they vanished into the dark.

With Amos having to cater for Joanna, it wasn't quite easy for him to catch up to Audrey as he would have done if it was only him.

"Drey, stop acting like you are the only one hurt here and give me the chance to explain ok," Joanna yelled seeing that the furious lady was about to escape again.

"Did you just say I am acting?" Audrey asked, turning to gaze at her.
