Meanwhile, at the palace, the uneasy Tiffany and Logan were still chatting with the Queen Mother when Tracy entered the room.

"The Prime Minister is here," Tracy announced.

"Grandpa is here!" Tiffany jumped to her feet in shock. She composed herself and returned to her seat noticing the way the Queen Mother stared at her.

"We the adults have things to discuss. I will leave you and Logan in Tracy's care," Queen Mother Theresa informed. She stood up from the chair and walked gracefully out of the room.

Logan and Tiffany exchanged puzzled glances after the Queen Mother left.

Queen Mother Theresa didn't join her visitor immediately after leaving Tiffany and her cousin but she went to her inner chambers and stayed there.

She stayed in her room for over twenty minutes despite knowing that someone was waiting for her.

At the Queen Mother's reception hall, a man in his official attire was seen groaning as he stared at the entrance.

"Are you sure you informed Her Highness that I was waiting for her?" He questioned in anger.

"Her Highness will soon be with you…,"

"That's exactly what you told me twenty minutes ago but where is she?" He demanded.

After waiting for over twenty minutes unattended, he couldn't control his annoyance anymore.

"If…," footsteps accompanied by a familiar scent made Mr Martinez pause what he wanted to say.

He reluctantly stood up from his chair and faced the entrance where the footsteps were getting closer.

Not long after, the Queen Mother entered the hall accompanied by three guards and two maids.

She strolled to her seat. She pretended not to see the displeasure on the elderly man's face.

"You may have your seat, Prime Minister Martinez," she instructed after she had sat down.

Mr Martinez sat down but with gritted teeth.

"This one that you decided to visit my palace, I hope all is well?" Queen Mother Theresa asked nonchalantly.

Her pretence irked Mr Martinez but he didn't say or do anything about this.

This is the palace, no matter how powerful he was, it's a suicidal attempt to harm the Queen Mother here in the presence of so many people.

"I learned my grandchildren were here so I came to take them home," Mr Martinez replied. He tried so hard not to sound rude.

"Your grandchildren are well taken care of. They are ready to go with you but before that, we have some things to discuss. I am sure you must have gotten my invitation right?" Queen Mother Theresa quizzed.

She was straightforward with what she wanted.

She didn't go through these hassles to beat around the bush with him.

"Is that why Her Highness kidnapped my grandchildren just to get me into the palace….,"

"If you had done like I said I wouldn't have resorted to this. You left me with no other option, Prime Minister. If anyone should be blamed for my decision it's none other than you," Queen Mother Theresa said without any remorse.

"And what if I don't agree…,"

"That means your grandson isn't as important as you wanted everyone to believe," Queen Mother interrupted sternly.

Realising that the Queen Mother was aware of his weakness Mr Martinez clenched his fists and kept quiet.

"Because you are the Prime Minister, I can't lock you up in the palace without any valid reason but that is not the case with your grandchildren. I can keep them here for as long as I want and no one will question me," She said with pride.

No one in the Kingdom except the King could indeed make the Queen Mother change her mind but would a proud man like Mr Martinez who has no good relationship with the King beg His Majesty?

Begging the King to save his grandchildren will hurt his pride and weaken his authority.

The Queen Mother is aware of this and that is why she was this confident.

"I know what you and the other ministers are scheming behind the King's back and I won't intervene. All I want is yours and the other ministers' support in exchange for keeping quiet,'' Queen Mother Theresa was blunt with what she wanted.

"You are not aware of what we are planning. Because I am sure you wouldn't want to partner with us if you do…,"

"And what do you mean by that?" She asked, frowning.

The Prime Minister only smiled devilishly without saying a word.

Back at the hotel, even after an hour of lying down Joanna couldn't fall asleep. She kept tossing around the bed every five minutes.

Tired of tossing around she jumped to her feet and walked about.

"I wonder what he is doing now?" She muttered and stared at her cell phone lying in the bedroom.

She had specifically placed it there so that she won't miss his text message or phone calls.

Ever since he left, her focus has never left her cell phone for more than five minutes.

"Is he so busy that he can't send me texts or call me even once?" She mumbled and continued pacing about the foot of the bed.

"With how things are, I am afraid I won't be able to sleep a wink so why don't I take a walk and receive some fresh air?" She whispered.

Immediately after she finished talking she moved over to where she kept her clothes. She changed from the pyjamas and made her way out of the room.

All her thoughts were that she was gonna take a short walk around the hotel premises but she ended up wandering far away just like her mind.

Before she realised where she was Joanna was amazed to see that she was about five buildings away from the apartment Amos resided in.

"How on Earth did I get here?" Joanna muttered as she stared at her surroundings.

She walked here and yet she could not believe it. How she wasn't aware of how she got there made her wonder whether she was under some evil spell.

"Since I am here already I will just check whether he has returned," Joanna mumbled smiling.

Turning around she started approaching the apartment's direction. She didn't take up to five steps when she came to an abrupt stop.
