YM778.TV Chapter 265 It's Him!
At the entrance, Joanna stood and kept an eye on the people inside the car who kept stealing glances at her as they talked.
She desperately wanted to hear what they were talking about but with her powers gone, her ability to hear from afar was gone too.
"Are they talking about me?" Joanna mumbled as she stared at the two people who were looking at her at the moment.
She reluctantly entered the cafe when she realised that it was a waste of time loitering outside, especially when she couldn\'t hear what they were discussing.
The minute Leah who was attending to a customer saw Joanna, she galloped to go and meet her.
"Thank goodness you are here," Leah gasped as she grabbed Joanna\'s hand. She tried to pull Joanna along with her but Joanna refused to budge.
"What\'s it? Why do you look so flustered, did something happen?" Joanna queried, her gaze centred on the flustered lady\'s face.
"It\'s him!" Leah retorted with her hand pointing at a particular table on her right-hand side.
Joanna\'s eyes followed the direction Leah was pointing at. Her gaze wavered when she set eyes on the guy wearing a yellow shirt which had some white stripes on it.
"He has declined to order without you around. And the annoying girls hovering around him have refused to budge despite all my efforts to get them away from him," Leah said. She rolled her eyes when one of the ladies trying to flirt with the dumb guy turned and shot her a murderous glare.
Joanna peeked at the guy in the yellow shirt who was having trouble fending off the ladies who were trying to flirt with him.
[When I saw ladies ogling at him the first time he came to the cafe, I thought they did this because he is handsome but why does it feel like this is more than meets the eyes?...]
Joanna was lost in thought as she took a careful look at the guy trying to avoid the five ladies\' flirtatious touches.
Because she was in a daze she didn\'t see Leah clenching her fist seeing the lady in a silver shirt placing her hand on his shoulder.
[No matter how handsome he is I am sure the ladies wouldn\'t have gone crazy over him or am I wrong?...]
Leah\'s mild tap brought Joanna out of her daze.
"What are you waiting for, do something," the anxious Leah requested as she shook Joanna\'s hand.
"I am afraid the fearless girls are gonna rape him in front of us if no one stops them," Leah didn\'t hesitate to make her fears known.
"I don\'t think they would do such a thing in public…,"
"You are speaking like this because you don\'t know what desperate ladies are capable of doing," Leah cut in sharply. She gave a slight push to Joanna\'s back when she saw that Joanna was hesitating.
"Go on…," Leah urged her on when Joanna stopped walking.
Slowly, she walked to the guy\'s table which was surrounded by five pretty yet mean-looking ladies.
"If you are here to ask us to leave just know that won\'t happen…,"
"Don\'t get me wrong. I am not here to chase you away," Joanna denied immediately. Her response made the frowning ladies exchange puzzled glances.
Even the guy who was almost suffocated by the ladies gave her a questioning stare.
"If you are not here to chase us away then why are you here?" The lady with curly black hair demanded, her suspicious glares directed at Joanna\'s face.
"Our cafe rule is that every customer must at least purchase something worth $5 before they are allowed to sit at the table…,"
"Since when did cafes start making such rules? And who is the bitch who made such absurd rules?" The lady wearing a red gown questioned, frowning.
Joanna clasped her fist to control her anger. She knew pulling the rude lady\'s hair will be the last thing she will do if she doesn\'t keep her temper in check.
"That person you called a bitch is my boss… are you satisfied now?" Joanna said with gritted teeth. Her smile looked so fake and the ladies didn\'t have a hard time telling that she was annoyed.
Unfortunately, they were not the type to care about others\' feelings.
"You…,"
"I don\'t have problems with you ladies being here but the place we will have problems is when you ladies fail to abide by the rules of the cafe," Joanna said, still maintaining her fake smile.
Even though she was lying, her aura while saying these words didn\'t show that she was lying.
"And who are you to threaten us? Do you know who we are…,"
"You don\'t need to know who I am. And from the moment you stepped foot into the cafe, you are nothing but our customer," Joanna made sure to stress her last sentence.
"You…,"
"There is no need to argue with her," The lady with blonde hair held the hand of the lady that just stood up and pulled her back to the chair.
"Isn\'t it just to buy something?" The lady with golden hair asked with pride.
Joanna smirked devilishly when she saw that the rude ladies had grabbed the bait.
"I am glad to see that we understand each other," Joanna faked a smile and pointed at the menu on the wall.
While the ladies were busy checking out the menu Joanna used their momentary distraction to scribble something on the guy\'s palms.
"Wait here. Your orders will be ready soon," Joanna said. She spun and retreated to the counter.
"Joanna, I told you to chase them away so why did you…,"
"How would we get our complete paycheck if we chased prospective customers away?" Joanna interrupted, not letting Leah chastise her.
"I never knew you to be obsessed with money so what has come over you?" Leah said, not willing to take the issue lightly.
"How could you tread the poor guy\'s wellbeing for money…,"
"Stop being noisy or I will be forced to gag your mouth?" Joanna threatened fiercely. She ambled closer to the lady who was about to say something.
"I know what I am doing so keep quiet and watch," Joanna whispered into Audrey\'s ears.
