Chapitre 208: Someone Else Answer The Line

Joanna stared at the restless lady as she walked to and fro the little space around the inner counter.

Seeing her this way made her recall that this was how she was in the past.

In the past, she was always more worried about her little brother who couldn't fall asleep without her by his side than she worried about herself.

It became a habit she couldn't do away with. It got to a point that she forgot that apart from her, Anthony had a mother, father and sister to look after her too.

"I am sure she must be outside waiting for me to return. What will I do if any harm comes to my little sister?" Leah kept on pacing about as she talked in a hushed tone.

"You can go home and be with your sibling, I will handle things here from now on," Joanna said out of the blue. Her words made Leah stop in her tracks.

With hope in her eyes, Leah turned and looked at Joanna. "Are you sure you can handle things here?" Leah asked meekly.
