Her Cancellation of the Engagement

Chapter 4 I Found It Out

Chapter 4 I Found It Out

After Alisa left, Sherman angrily put the cup heavily on the table and said, "Damn it!"

Laney poured Sherman a glass of water and comforted, "Well, don't be angry. She hasn't cared about us since long ago. It's no use getting angry."

Alisa was adopted by Sherman and Laney eight years ago.

At that time, Sherman was looking for Gianna crazily. After looking for her for a long time, Sherman got no news, and he accidentally met Alisa.

Alisa resembled Gianna. Sherman missed Gianna and felt that Alisa was pitiful, so he adopted Alisa.

Alisa was well-behaved and sensible. She was also honey-tongued and could make people laugh.

Brenna liked Alisa so much just because of her sugared words.

Two years after they adopted Alisa, Brenna took her and raised her personally. In just a few years, Alisa was cultivated into the wisest girl in Rheinsville City, which made many people envious.

However, since Alisa lived with Brenna, Alisa had been looking down upon Sherman and Laney. Although Alisa didn't show it on the surface, her words always broke Sherman and Laney's hearts.

Sherman and Laney were not silly. As time went by, they certainly understood Alisa's thoughts, so they naturally didn't have much contact with Alisa anymore.

"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have adopted her back then!" Sherman was full of remorse.

"You were kind to her at that time." Laney glanced at Gianna and said, "The question now is how to break off the engagement! According to Alisa, Mom is determined to let Gia marry Lloyd. If we don't agree, I'm afraid Mom won't give up."

"I must break off the engagement for Gia. At worst, Mom will take the house back. As an adult, I can definitely support my family!"

Laney sighed and thought, "I'm afraid that Brenna won't let us live at ease in Rheinsville City."

Gianna lowered her head and browsed the information about Lloyd on the smartphone.

Lloyd was famous for his family, so his information was complete.

There was everything about Lloyd on the phone, including his phone number, but without his picture.

"Mr. Geller, don't be so hard on yourself. I can break off the engagement by myself." Gianna raised her head with a smile on her pretty face. She said, "Don't worry about the house. I will buy you one."

Gianna thought, "For the sake of Sherman treating me well, buying him a house can be regarded as fulfilling my filial duty."

"Gia..."

Sherman wanted to say something, but Gianna stood up and dialed a phone number.

"Is that Mr. Finley? This is Ms. Geller." After the phone was answered, Gianna directly said.

On the other end of the phone, Lloyd's fingers paused for a moment. Lloyd raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What's up?"

"I want to break off the engagement." Gianna's voice was very crisp.

Lloyd was stunned. After a while, he said with a smile, "I agree!"

Looking at the mobile phone that had hung up, Gianna was stunned for a moment.

She didn't expect Lloyd to agree so easily.

In a high-end club in Rheinsville City.

Lloyd was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, holding his phone with his slender fingers. He stared at the phone record with his deep eyes and suddenly had a faint smile.

"Is that really Ms. Geller?" Irvin asked in disbelief, holding a wine glass.

"She said she was," Lloyd replied in a deep and brisk voice.

Irvin tutted twice and said, "She is a real personality, and she knocks my socks off." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Although Lloyd had a bad reputation, his family was wealthy and powerful.

Therefore, many girls wanted to marry Lloyd, but Damian had already betrothed the eldest daughter of the Geller family to Lloyd.

Irvin originally thought that the Geller family would not break off the engagement.

Irvin had investigated the Geller family. Its company had been going downhill in recent years and had a serious shortage of funds. With the betrothal with the Finley family, it could get an investment, which was the condition Damian promised.

So Brenna would never agree with breaking off the engagement.

Unexpectedly, the eldest daughter of the Geller family actually broke off the engagement in person.

Irvin thought, "Sure enough, she is the wisest girl in Rheinsville City. Her character and bravery are unmatched by many girls."

Being in a good mood, Lloyd squinted and operated quickly on the phone.

Irvin leaned over and had a look. Then he asked with surprise, "Mr. Finley, why did you save the call recording?"

Lloyd raised his eyes slightly, still operating his phone, and replied, "I must let my grandfather know about such a good thing and make him happy."

"If he knows it, he will probably be angry and have a heart attack." Irvin couldn't imagine what would happen if Damian knew it.

"That's not gonna happen, but he may pretend that he is so pitiful." Damian used to do that.

To make Lloyd marry the eldest daughter of the Geller family, Damian used all methods, which really annoyed Lloyd.

Irvin thought, "Now that Ms. Geller has taken the initiative to break off the engagement, Damian can give up his idea."

Irvin took a sip of wine, looked sideways at Lloyd, and asked in confusion, "Why do you want to break off the engagement? Alisa is beautiful and has excellent grades. It is said that she has some achievements in many fields. With her grades, she may be admitted to Sulley University. It's difficult to meet another girl as excellent as her."

Lloyd put down his mobile phone, picked up his wine glass, and shook it slightly. He said, "Since she is so good, I can't get in her way. After all, I am just a cripple."

Irvin's gaze settled on Lloyd's slender and healthy legs. Then Irvin quietly withdrew his gaze.

In Splendid Community.

As soon as Gianna entered her bedroom, her phone rang.

After looking at the caller ID, Gianna immediately had a solemn look. She got up to the window and answered the phone.

"I found it out." On the other side of the phone, a deep male voice came. "On the day your mother passed away, people from four families in Reland showed up where you lived."

Gianna said with a gloomy look, "Four families?"

"Yes!" The man continued, "They are the Bellamy family, the Kershaw family, the Pyne family, and...the Finley family."

Gianna was stunned and asked, "The Finley family? Is it Lloyd's family?"

"Yes." The man paused for a moment and then said, "There are four major families in Reland. They're the Finley family, the Garcia family, the Geller family, and the Zavala family. The Finley family tops the four families, and it's truly a top wealthy family. Except for the Finley family, the other three families that appeared in your home are secondary families."

The man was silent for a second and then continued to say, "These three secondary families went to your home to find something, but I didn't figure out what they were looking for. And the person sent by the Finley family to your house was Lloyd..."

Gianna raised her eyes and frowned. She asked, "Lloyd? Why did he appear in my home?"

"It seems that he was looking for someone!"

Gianna didn't speak, leaning against the window, slowly tapping on the edge of the window. After a long time, she slowly said, "Keep your investigation. Figure out what the three families were looking for! Don't mind the Finley family. I'll investigate it myself."

"OK."
