Bedding My Vampire Mate

Chapter 593 Are You Planning To Poison Me?

"She is pure evil! Someone like her doesn't deserve to live among others," Laura could only grumble after Joanna was long gone.

As soon as Joanna saw the little boy sitting on one of the couches in the sitting room with his attention fixed on the cartoon playing on the big television, her anger vanished.

"Is the cartoon that interesting huh?" Joanna announced her presence as dramatically as she could.

"Big Sis!" Anthony exclaimed and jumped to his feet as soon as he heard Joanna's voice.

"If the cartoon is that thrilling does that mean that Big Sis is not wanted here? Should I return to where I came from?'' She asked as she walked further into the vast room.

"Never!" Anthony shouted and raced towards her.

By the time he reached her, Joanna was already squatting with her hands spread to welcome his embrace.

Anthony hugged Joanna tightly and refused to let go.

"Big Sis, have you returned for good? You are not going to leave anymore right?" Anthony asked excitedly, his arms still wrapped around Joanna's neck.

"Hmm… I came to take you out to have fun today since I got my day off from work. Does that mean you will turn me down if refuse to return to the house today?" Joanna asked playfully as she lifted Anthony off the floor.

She strolled to the couch while carrying him on her body.

"Hmmm…. No," Anthony shook his head in negation while grinning happily.

"We rarely go out to play for a long time now so I won't say no to that. I can always talk about you coming back next time," Anthony said like the smart boy that he was.

"Hey, I never knew that my Little Rice ball was the calculative type ahh," Joanna teased as she smiled along with him.

"I learned that from you or didn't I?" Anthony replied only to burst out in a peal of deafening laughter following Giavanna's sudden tickle.

He jumped down from her body when he got the slightest opportunity. With Joanna chasing after him, Anthony ran around the sitting room just so he wouldn't fall into her hands.

For three days Joanna couldn't let out a chuckle but surprisingly she saw herself laughing at the top of her lungs as she pursued her little brother around the house.

Maybe this was the break she needed to break free from her problems even though it was just for a while.

After running about the sitting room for a long time Joanna finally caught Anthony.

"Don't struggle, I won't tickle you again," Joanna gave Anthony her word when he wouldn't stop struggling to break free from her hold.

"Today we are gonna do whatever you want, so will you tell Big Sis what you would like us to do for our outing?" Joanna asked. She let go of the boy sitting on her legs after his frantic movements ceased.

"Hmm…" Anthony tapped his head as he tried to come up with the activities he would love him and Joanna to do.

"I have always wanted you, me, Sis Laura, Mum and Dad to go on a picnic or a trip. I know that is not possible so I will leave it out," Anthony started in an excited tone.

"I want us to go to the amusement park and then we will go swimming in the river and… and…" Anthony stammered when he couldn't immediately come up with other ideas.

"It was my wish to go spar with Big Sis just like other kids do with their older sisters. Since I know you can fight now then we will duel today," Anthony relayed. Merely thinking about sparring with Joanna made his eyeballs dance in excitement.

"At the moment I fight with professionals. Are you sure you will be able to handle Big Sis's blows huh?" Joanna questioned in a playful tone as she played with Anthony's cheeks.

"A few days ago, my master complimented me. He said my fighting skills have improved. He even said it's a matter of time before I will be fighting him head-on in a battle," Anthony narrated with his shoulders raised high.

"Is my little rice ball really that good aah?" Joanna teased him.

"I can't wait for us to actually duel," Joanna added, grinning.

"So what else do you want to do with Big Sis apart from the ones you mentioned?" Joanna continued to ask. And excitedly, Anthony went on to list out everything he has always wanted to do with Joanna if they had the opportunity.

If only he knew that was Joanna's parting gift to him then maybe he wouldn't have been so happy about these things.

"Go on and dress up. Big Sis will be waiting for you right here," Joanna said and waved at the boy who was looking down at her from the stairs.

The moment she heard Anthony's door shut with a bang, Joanna turned and looked behind where she felt a presence.

"What?" Joanna asked her eyes fixed on the lady standing not far away with her murderous glares shot at her.

"Don't tell me you are gonna go as low as attacking me from behind huh?" Joanna asked the girl whose piercing eyeballs were as if she was gonna rip out her head any moment from then.

"Do you think you stand a chance if you do that?" Joanna added in a carefree tone.

"Yes, I hate your guts but I have no intentions of making my little brother watch me murder you…"

"And since when did you start caring so much about Little Rice ball?" Joanna snapped.

"Because he loves and cares about you alone, did that make you forget that he has another Big Sister?" Laura grumbled. She approached the stairs afterwards.

"Little Rice Ball and I are going out to have fun. Do you want to come along with us?" Joanna asked before Laura could step on the staircase.

"Why?" Laura demanded. She spun and gazed in Joanna's direction.

"Are you planning to poison me again because you have realised that I am not an easy target?" Laura questioned as if she wasn't the same lady whose ego Joanna badly bruised earlier.

"Even if you have no such intentions the truth is I am not that bored to follow both of you out," Laura concluded. She vanished from the stairs without allowing Joanna to say her piece.

"I have this feeling that she and I would have made the best sisters if only her mother and grandmother didn't poison her mind against me," Joanna mumbled, her gaze fixed on the direction Laura went.
