Chapter 559 Joanna Got Abducted
"I will prove to you and everyone out there that my love is far stronger and superior to any trials out there," She declared as she kept moving along the lonely street.
For two days Joanna and her group members rehearsed as if their life depended on it. Their cooperation and improvements as days went by boosted her confidence and determination to give her best performance on the carnival day.
Joanna was on her way back from getting the refreshments Mrs Parker sent to her group to show her support for them when she ran into Laura.
Despite having seen the frowning lady, Joanna acted as if she didn't. She continued to talk with her partner and walked past her.
"Lia, you told me that your Dad promised to return from his business trip so he could watch our performance. Is he back yet?" Joanna asked and looked away from her stepsister's direction.
"He was supposed to return today but something came up which caused his flight to be delayed but he said he enjoyed watching the video of our rehearsal I sent to him..." Lia couldn't stop beaming while talking.
"He reaffirmed that he wouldn't miss the carnival for anything in this world. He will return unfailingly by tomorrow," Lia said, excitement written all over her face.
"Wow.. that is great," Joanna remarked as she tapped Lia's shoulder with her free hand.
Laura who stood beside a white pillar stared at the back of the two innocent ladies as if they just stepped on her toe.
[Hey bitch, you can try as much as you want, give it your best and even throw your everything into this but bad news to you... with me around, yours and your group's performance will be nothing but total failure]
Laura's grip around her chain handbag tightened as she shot laser beams at the two laughing figures whose distance from her had widened.
"Let's see what will happen to you and your group after I am done carrying out my plans," Laura murmured. She stomped away.
A day before the commencement of the three-day carnival, Joanna was on her way to campus after she paid Mrs Parker a visit at the cafe where she spent her break period.
She was walking on a quiet street when suddenly a car which drove at top speed screeched to a stop beside her.
Had she jumped a second later than she did the black-tinted glass car would have crashed into her.
At first, she had believed it was the handiwork of a drunk driver but that changed when three hefty men got out of the car and stomped towards her.
"And who the hell are these idiots again?" Joanna hissed when she realised that she was the men's target.
[I thought I had put everyone who could stand in my way in their respective places. I don't think Madam Cora, Adhara or the Mean witches would have been foolish enough to challenge me after what I did to them so who the hell would have sent them?]
Joanna quickly adjusted the way she held her handbag. She took her stance ready to defend herself whenever required.
"Let go of me, fool," Joanna yelled. She slapped and pushed away the guy that grabbed her hand.
She was about to teach the three guys a lesson they would forever remember when an idea struck her.
[Since there is someone out there who has refused to learn lessons from what I did to the others why don't I use this opportunity to see this enemy of mine... I bet it will be thrilling to handle yet another idiot out there]
Joanna smirked and pretended as if she didn't sense the presence of the guy who tried to sneak an attack on her from behind.
"Piss off," Joanna shouted and acted as if she was trying to wriggle her way out of the grip of the guy who seized her from behind.
Immediately, they bundled her into their car which the driver had already ignited and zoomed off.
Inside the car, Joanna studied her environment carefully. If this had happened in the past she wouldn't have been so calm to examine her environment.
She was so carefree despite being captured because she knew without a doubt that she was the boss here even though they thought they had succeeded in subduing her.
After about an hour's drive, the car pulled over in front of a tall building surrounded by bushes on all sides.
Yes, the place looked creepy and so was the abandoned building whose front the car had come to a pause but she felt as relaxed as it was a while ago.
"Where are you taking me to?" Joanna shouted and struggled to break free from their hold. She knew that it would look weird if she followed her kidnappers willingly into the dilapidated building without putting on a fight.
"Who sent you to do this to me huh?" She yelled at the men who hadn't said a word ever since she encountered them.
She almost thought they were deaf and dumb until one of them actually said a word.
"Why waste your energy struggling with us when you will meet the ones who gave the orders in less than a minute," The guy with an ugly scar on his right cheek growled and shoved her roughly against the grey pillar in front of them.
"Arrgghh!" Joanna screamed and faked a painful look, her right hand clutching her left shoulder which had collided with the pillar.
[From his words it means that the masterminds are not one. I wonder who...]
Joanna put an end to her thought when her sensitive nose got a whiff of a familiar scent.
She looked ahead of her toward the enormous entrance in front of her which had no door.
"Don't tell me this is her handiwork?" Joanna whispered, her painful expression turning murderous.
The three men dragged her along with them before she thought of a perfect punishment for the masterminds of her abduction.
Two minutes later she was standing in a large hall whose floor was full of litter. A few broken chairs, tables and cupboards could be seen stacked in a corner of the room but she didn't care about any of this.
