Her gaze shifted to Anthony, worry written all over her face. His tiny chest rose and fell so faintly. A senses of relief washed over her. He's still alive…for now.
"How does it feel?" the woman mocked, her voice dripping with disdain. "To fail. To watch your loved ones' life hung on a thread despite giving your best efforts? It must sting, hmm?"
Joanna's lip curled, immediately moving her attention to where the woman stood. "Who says I've failed?" She retorted, as she slowly released her clasped fist.
"The battle has just begun, so obviously the winner is yet to be determined. You haven't won yet neither have l lost," Joanna muttered refusing to accept such an outcome.
To achieve her aim she is going to fight until the very end. Right now there is nothing she can't do for the two men she loves the most.
No matter what, she will save her Little Rice Ball and also makes sure she return a peaceful Twipera Kingdom to the King, her husband.
