CHAPTER 25

Throughout that day, joseph and kelly didn't talk much, although kelly tried to make small talks, joseph only gave short replies and she didn't know why. "Maybe he really hated kissing me, or did I do something wrong." She thought.

Meanwhile Joseph was thinking about her words earlier and anytime he remembered it, he felt pain in his chest. "Do I really not have a chance with her, are we going to just stay as friends?" when he thought about the possibility of just staying as friends, it became really hard to breathe.

they stayed silent till they got to Kelly's house and joseph reminded her about shopping and after that they separated.

When Maria heard about what happened in the school hall, she was really angry, she didn't know what went wrong this was not supposed to happen.

" what kind of luck does that bi*** has, this was not supposed to happen I mean, what does joseph see in her. I need to act fast before it is too late." she thought to herself.

after school...

When Maria got home, she went straight to her room, she didn't expect her mother to barge into her room. "mum, what do you think you're doing," she was startled as her mother slapped her really hard that she fell on the bed.

"Is this how I raised you, how hard is it to steal just one man from a naive little girl, is this how you put everything I taught you into practice. Do you know how hard it is to put up with that old man while waiting for my daughter to get rid of one little stumbling block. I gave you just one job and you can't carry it out, seriously what have you been doing." she screamed at her daughter.

"I'm trying my best mother, do you think it is as easy as you think, you only achieved your goal because the old man didn't love his wife and the lady was sick, do you think my situation is similar to yours, besides it is not like you have achieved everything, the old man still hasn't signed the will you provided." she spoke back.

"I'm giving you one last chance, if you don't think you can achieve this one step back let me take the lead." her mother said coldly.

"No, I'm not going to keep living in that girl's shadow, I'm going to achieve all these by myself, so don't think about interfering with my plans." she replied..

"Don't disappoint me again," her mother said before walking out of her room.

"kelly watch your back." she thought to herself.
