Bedding My Vampire Mate-Chapter 488 The New Mission
"Forget about us ever becoming friends again if this is how you're gonna behave," she berated and stomped out of there.
"He is forcing himself to stay away from you despite that he is dying to be in your arms all for your sake," Audrey was left with no other choice but to speak.
Joanna halted. She spun and gazed at Audrey's face.
"He did all these for my sake?" Joanna grimaced. "Do you really believe he did all these things for my sake after seeing me in this terrible state?" She demanded, her index finger pointed at her teary eyes.
Joanna plodded to where Audrey stood. 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏｖ𝚎𝚕．𝚌ｏｍ
"Drey...," She called. She lifted her hands and held Audrey's shoulders while she left her eyeballs locked in hers.
"I have this strange feeling that you know why he is being extraordinarily mean to me lately so I want you to tell me all about it. It's only when I know his reason for being this way that I will feel at ease so please tell me what is going on ok?" Joanna pleaded with all sincerity.
Audrey was her last resort. She won't know what to do if she denies her request.
"If you don't want to see me lose my mind then you will do me this favour hmm," She added, seeing the reluctance in Audrey's eyes.
"I will tell you everything I know because I detest seeing you guys hurting each other. It's left for you to choose what to do and which is more important after I told you everything," Audrey gave in at last after a minute of silence.
Audrey went ahead and revealed all she knew about the reason Amos' attitude towards Joanna changed overnight.
"He wants to do everything within his capacity to make sure no harm came to you. He didn't hesitate to hurt himself in the process. Whether or not his efforts would go to waste depends on your decision and that is why I would advise you to choose wisely," Audrey advised like every good friend out there would have done.
Audrey's words brought back the memory of what happened at the flower garden not long ago.
<New Mission Unlocked: Make your mate jealous to the point that he doubts your love for him>

<Deadline: A week>
This was the new mission that popped up on the white screen earlier.
She had vouched not long ago that she would not complete such a mission. But here she is about to be forced by circumstances to do otherwise.
[Now I am more than certain that the entire universe is against my happiness]
Joanna raised her head and gazed at the sky. She fought back the tears that were threatening to fall and make her look like a joke.
[Maybe this is for the better, Joanna. So don't be too sad. You will still have a few days left to spend with him before he returns to the palace if you take the mission seriously]
Joanna tried to encourage herself and boost her morale.
Even after she chanted these words in her head she didn't feel any better.
Audrey continued, "Don't forget that your decision could force him to return to the palace...,"
"Since he is doing this to keep me safe I will pretend not to know anything about it," Joanna muttered.
"What!" Audrey's eyes widened in shock. "Did I hear you say you will play along with what he wants?" Audrey asked, still in disbelief.
Joanna ambled forward and turned her back on her. "Clinging onto him will only push him further away from me so what is the use of fighting a losing battle?" She quizzed.
She continued to stand this way because of her desperation to hide the fact that she wasn't fine from her best friend.
"Besides, clinging onto him will only cause him more pain...,"
"Anna, are you the one saying this?" Audrey demanded. She held Joanna's hand and spun her around.
Audrey studied her best friend's face to make sure this was the same lady who threatened to cut off all ties with her some minutes ago.
