Chapter 166: You Will Kill Me?

Adhara kept on looking at Joanna's stern expression. As she stood there the memory of the earlier incident kept on replaying in her memory.

[What if it turned out that she is more powerful than I assumed? Won't I become a laughing stock in my own house if I get defeated by a little girl like her?]

Adhara was lost in thoughts. She was confused about what decision to take.

Even though she didn't see any of the maids or her employees in sight, she knew very well that they were eavesdropping on their conversation.

Whether or not she slapped Joanna right there she knew that they would still gossip about the incidents.

So at last she decided that although it was embarrassing to retrieve her hand, it was the best choice since this will save her from an even bigger embarrassment.

She will be the Kingdom's main topic of gossip if she gets beaten by her stepdaughter whom she always trampled under her feet in the past.
