Seeing the hesitation on his face Mr Fin adjusted the way he sat so all his attention was focused on Amos.

"There is no need to keep secrets between us. You can tell me all that has happened and I promise I will keep it a secret if it\'s something that should be," Mr Fin said.

He was clear about his stance and didn\'t dare to make promises.

What if he promised to keep it a secret and later found out that things were beyond their control?

"Say it Kayden," Mr Fin urged him.

With Mr Fin acting this way Amos had no choice but to relay everything to him.

He took his time to tell Mr Fin what they encountered including what Joanna said about being tailed.

"Since she had become their target I can\'t go back to the palace but I need to stay and make sure she is safe at all times...,"

"But your closeness will only endanger her life, won\'t it...,"

"Right now, I doubt the ones targeting her know my identity as the King. I believe they are targeting her to try and lure me out. What they don\'t know is that I have always been beside her. And that\'s one of our greatest advantages," Amos concluded in a serious tone.

As Amos and Mr Fin conversed, Mrs Parker paused what she was doing when she got a glimpse of the lady at the door.

"And what the hell is she doing here instead of spending her day off going on dates with him?" Mrs Parker mumbled.

She looked outside the transparent glass wall expecting to see Amos outside but to her surprise, he wasn\'t there.

Joanna strolled to the counter. She looked around when she got to the counter as if she was searching for someone.

"What about Amelia? Did she go out?" Joanna asked after she had greeted Mrs Parker and also addressed Leah.

"Now that she is certain he is alright she has returned...,"

"What!" Joanna remarked not being able to hide her shock.

"If she had plans of going back then how come she didn\'t tell me when we met up that night?" Joanna muttered.

The disappointment on her face didn\'t escape Mrs Parker\'s notice.

"The two of you met up alone?... When and how?" Mrs Parker quizzed. "I thought you ladies were on bad terms over what happened...,"

"Since Amelia is gone then I will just assist Leah to serve the customers...,"

"But today is your day off," Mrs Parker protested.

"Don\'t worry I won\'t ask you to pay me for the work I will do today...,"

"Even at that I can\'t let you work," Mrs Parker blurted without beating around the bush.

"But...,"

"If you want to sit and relax, that won\'t be a problem but letting you work on your day off is non-negotiable...,"

"I am gonna work for free...,"

"Nothing you say will make me change my mind so save your breath Joanna and go have a seat over there," Mr Parker rejected her offer once again.

She pointed at the empty table not far away from the counter.

"Are you sure you don\'t want me to help out....,"

"Yes, I am so there is no need to give me that look because I won\'t change my mind," Mrs Parker didn\'t waver no matter the method Joanna chose to make her yield.

"If that\'s the case then I will stay in the locker room...,"

"But I just say you can have a seat over there...,"

"Work will be the only thing that occupies my mind if I stay inside the main cafe but since you forbid me from working today. It\'s only right I stay in the locker room," Joanna faked a smile at her.

She hurried into the door beside the counter before Mrs Parker could stop her.

"She and her boyfriend are head over heels for each other and as such, they are always together. Do you think they have a problem, that is why she chose to spend her day off here despite all the places she could have gone to?" Leah inquired, her attention not moving away from the brown door.

"He is not the type that would pick a fight with her. I will have to find out what happened later on," Mrs Parker mumbled.

She shifted her gaze from the brown door to where a customer was calling for their attention.

As Mrs Parker oversaw that the cafe was run properly, all her thought was about the lady waiting inside the locker room.

After about three hours of working Mrs Parker got worried about the lady who hadn\'t stepped outside of the locker room for a minute.

She made up her mind to go check up on what she was doing.

Inside the locker room, Joanna was going through her phone\'s gallery when Mrs Parker entered the medium size room which had five lockers with name tags on them.

Joanna got rid of her phone when she saw the elderly woman.

Mrs Parker didn\'t speak immediately but she took her time to study Joanna first.

"Joan, tell me, were you really here to work on your day off or...,"

"I came because I was hoping to talk to Amelia," Joanna was honest with her reply.

"Are you and him perhaps having problems? Is that why you wanted to talk to Lia?" Mrs Parker made a wild guess.

"If my guess is right then you can talk to me. I bet I am in a better position to advise you than that silly girl who hasn\'t been in a relationship all her life," Mrs Parker joked.

After two minutes of silence, Joanna still didn\'t relate to Mrs Parker what was bothering her.

"If you are worried that I might reveal our conversation here to him then you don\'t have to. I promise that your secrets are safe with me," Mrs Parker gave Joanna the assurance she thought she needed.
