Chapter 3 Don't Tell Me What to Do
On the other side...
In Splendid Community.
Sherman was about to contact the Finley family to break off the engagement but was interrupted by a doorbell.
Sherman and Laney got up to open the door.
Gianna also got up and walked over. When a guest came, she had to greet the guest. It was basic courtesy.
It was Alisa outside the door.
Sherman and Laney were stunned for a moment. Even Gianna raised her eyes slightly in shock.
They just came out of the Geller's villa, and Alisa came here so quickly.
"Dad, Mom, I'm here to visit you and Gianna. I also brought her some clothes." Alisa was wearing a light-colored dress with her hair tied up on both sides, showing a sweet smile, which made her look gentle.
When Laney saw the bag Alisa was carrying, she changed her face.
These clothes were bought by Brenna for Alisa. Alisa only wore many of them once and never wore them again.
Laney was speechless.
"Thank you, you're so considerate." Laney took the bag and put it on the cabinet casually.
"Why did you come here all of a sudden?" Sherman also saw the bag in Alisa's hand, and his face darkened immediately.
Alisa changed her look slightly and looked at Sherman with tears in her eyes. She said with an aggrieved look, "I know you just got your biological daughter and want to get along with her more. I know you don't want to see me, but... Grandma asked me to teach Gianna how to behave decently."
Sherman frowned and looked at Alisa impatiently.
He thought, "Again! Every time she came here these years, she kept sobbing as if someone bullied her. She has been looking down upon us since she gained Brenna's favor. Now, how dare she pretend to be poor and innocent in front of us!"
Sherman was angry and snapped, "Nonsense! Gia has good manners, and she doesn't need you to teach her! Besides, she is not going to marry a king, so she doesn't have to learn this!"
Gianna was suddenly amused by Sherman's words, directly laughing out loud.
Gianna thought, "Mr. Geller is quite humorous."
Alisa flushed, lowering her head and biting her lip. She said, "Dad, I didn't mean that. I just..."
"All right, go back to tell Brenna that I will break off the engagement with the Finley family. Since she dislikes Gia, she has no right to educate Gia," said Sherman angrily.
"What? Are you serious?" Alisa almost showed her true colors at the moment. She clutched both edges of her skirt with both hands, and her eyes were full of resentment.
Alisa thought, "So hypocritical! So ridiculous!
Sure enough, the treatment for a biological daughter is different from that for an adopted daughter.
At that time, the Finley family thought it was me who was engaged to Lloyd and asked me to marry him. I secretly showed that I didn't want to marry Lloyd, but what did Sherman say?
He said that he couldn't call the shots in the family and that it was up to Brenna to decide whether to break off the engagement or not.
But what about now?
Gianna has just come back, and Sherman can't wait to break off the engagement. Now why doesn't he say that he can't call the shots in the family?"
"Yes. Gia is only nineteen years old. Besides, I've just got her back, and I won't let her get married." Sherman said with a serious face, "Tell Brenna to stay away from Gia."
Sherman knew Brenna's thoughts.
He thought, "In the past, I used to listen to her in everything, but I won't make any compromise on things about Gia. Whoever dares to have designs on Gia, I will turn against him."
"But..." Alisa bit her lip and said unwillingly, "Gianna has agreed to marry Mr. Finley. If she doesn't marry him, the Finley family will blame us. If we offend them, we won't live at ease."
Alisa looked at Gianna as she said. Then she Alisa softly, "Gianna, you don't want anything to happen to the Geller family, do you? Grandpa worked hard all his life to make our family so successful. If it's because of you..."
Alisa didn't finish her words on purpose.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Hearing Alisa's words, Gianna slightly raised her eyes and said with a faint smile, "You're right. I don't want to marry him. Why don't you marry him?"
Alisa froze with a gloomy look.
She thought, "I don't want to marry that cripple!
I'm the wisest girl in Rheinsville City, and I have made great achievements in various fields. I'm also a top student at Ranson High School. I'm promising! I can't marry a cripple and let him ruin my life!
What does Gianna mean?
Did she deliberately say this to disgust me?"
"You're kidding." Alisa forced herself to smile, which made her face look strange.
Gianna blinked her eyes, tilted her head, and looked at Alisa. Gianna said, "I'm not kidding!"
Alisa was angry.
She almost lost control of herself and almost slapped Gianna!
She thought, "How dare you!"
"But you are the eldest daughter of the Geller family!" Alisa's voice suddenly rose, and something sinister flickered in her eyes.
"Oh." Gianna said indifferently, "So please behave yourself. Don't tell me what to do!"
"You!" Alisa clenched her fists hanging on both sides. Soon, she took a deep breath and said with a smile, "You got me wrong. I'm not telling you what to do. Grandma said that the engagement is very
important. After the engagement, the Finley family will invest a sum of money in our company, so you can't break off the engagement."
Before Gianna could speak, Alisa stood up and continued to say, "Dad, I have to go to the company, so I'm leaving now. Grandma let me tell you that she will never agree with breaking off an engagement. If you insist on it, she will take the house back."
Actually, Brenna didn't say that. Alisa took the liberty of saying these words.
Alisa thought it was not a big deal. After all, she could change Brenna's attitude before Sherman came to find Brenna.
Sherman changed his look. When he was about to say something, Alisa left directly.
