Chapter 378 Joanna's Plan Got Ruined
Joanna let go of her burning cheeks and stood with her head held high.
"Grandma, I know…," Grandma Cora turned and grabbed Joanna's neck. She choked the words back into Joanna's throat.
"I have told you times without numbers that I don't have a granddaughter like you. And that never in your life should you call me your Grandma," Grandma Cora raved, her grip around Joanna's neck tightened.
Joanna didn't break down in tears or plead for her life even though the angry woman had lifted her off the floor.
[She must think she is so powerful not knowing that I deliberately didn't dodge her attack]
An evil grin plastered on Joanna's face as she stared at the angry woman.
Grandma Cora was too angry to notice this but Joanna's evil smirk didn't escape Adhara's notice.
[I am sure the wicked girl must be up to no good. I need to do something about this before she takes action]
Adhara reached out her hand to stop her mother but she was pulled back from behind.
"Mum, don't tell me you want to stop Granny from punishing her…,"
"Yes. She will harm your Grandma if I don't stop her now…,"
"And what the hell can she do when she is outnumbered?" Laura snapped.
She didn't feel an ounce of sympathy despite seeing Joanna's face turn red due to her Grandmother's strangling.
"If she is planning something she will have to think twice about it with us here," Laura added with pride.
She walked past her mother and stood beside Grandma Cora.
"I clearly stated in the text message that you wanted her back home. I included the punishment in it to instil fear in her but I can't believe she chose to undermine your orders," Laura reported.
Joanna whose breath has gotten irregular glared at her lying stepsister. At that moment she felt the urge to strangle her to death.
"She must have done this because she believed you can't do anything to her just like mum…,"
"I don't know how you bewitched my daughter into treating you nicely but let me make myself clear…," Grandma Cora roared as she looked into Joanna's eyes.
"I am not my daughter and I will never be like her so never get mistaken. I can kill you now and nothing will happen," She stated.
To show Joanna that what she said was not a mere threat she applied more strength to her hand.
[My mother was able to stop me from dealing with you but I swear none will come to your rescue with Granny here. Serves you right!]
A triumphant smile masked Laura's face.
Joanna who was on the brink of losing consciousness stared at the angry woman whose grip around her neck hadn't loosened a bit
[I was planning to take my sweet time dealing with her because I believed her fragile heart wouldn't be able to handle my transformation. I guess I have to change plans now]
Joanna grinned inwardly.
Instantly her right hand glowed red. Adhara, whose attention was on Joanna, got a glimpse of the ball of fire forming on Joanna's hand on time.
Without wasting a minute she pushed Laura out of her path and held her mother's hand.
"Mum, that is enough. She will die if you don't stop now," Adhara pleaded.
She became more terrified of what Joanna will do to her mother when she recalled the explosion that ruined their porch.
"Don't touch me again," Grandma Cora warned and shook off Adhara's hand.
Joanna was about to attack when a tiny voice interrupted her plan.
"Grandma!" A tinny boy's voice filled the room. Joanna who was about to grab Grandma Cora's hand with her glowing hand lowered her hand on sighting Anthony from the stairs.
Anthony raced down the stairs. He was clever enough not to pass where Laura stood.
"Grandma, w-why are you doing this to Big Sis?" Anthony cried. Tears rolled from his eyes.
"Stop crying like…,"
"Let go of her," Anthony ordered. He ignored Laura's deadly glares and reached out his hand.
He held Joanna's hand and tried to pull her down.
Even if Grandma Cora had plans to kill Joanna, with Anthony around she knew she wouldn't be able to achieve her aim.
The only person who would make her change her mind about killing Joanna in the entire building was Anthony and no one else.
Grandma Cora had no other choice but to release Joanna when Anthony kept struggling to rescue her.
She flung Joanna to the floor mercilessly. She didn't care whether Joanna broke her head, hand or leg.
Laid on the floor Joanna held her neck and breathed heavily.
She was trying to let the old hag get a bit of fun before she dealt with her. She couldn't believe that things turned South and she ended up hurt in the process.
Anthony hurried to Joanna's side. He held her and helped her into a sitting position.
"Are you alright Big Sis?" He asked. He extended his hand and stroked her reddened face.
For two minutes Joanna wasn't able to talk. In a rush, she sucked in the air she was deprived of for over five minutes.
"The next time you dare to defy my orders, I promise you, it won't end with strangling alone but I will break your legs. I will make sure you never get to walk again," She roared and stormed out of there.
The grinning Laura stuck out her tongue at Joanna.
"Wait for me, Granny," She shouted and ran after Grandma Cora.
Slowly, Joanna stood up to her feet. She raised her head and peered at Grandma Cora's room upstairs.
"Did you say you are gonna break my legs?" Joanna scoffed.
"The ground is slippery Grandma. Be careful because you might end up breaking your legs before I do," She mumbled and walked away.
"Let's go together," He said and chased after Joanna.
Adhara's gaze followed her stepdaughter's departing back. Joanna's earlier words echoed in her mind.
[Is she trying to say she would deal with my mother before she had the chance to deal a blow at her? Is that what her words meant?]
