Caesar was dumbfounded by her slap on the spot.
He stared at her and was out of sorts.
She hit him!
This kind of woman who had been educated by the upper class and would only stick to the rules, hit
him in front of everyone!
He looked at her in anger.
She directly shrugged off his hand in the second he was dazed, then turned around and left.
He clenched his fists.
He was still trying to figure out how to make her stay and how to continue their wedding.
Just at that moment…
An old but stern voice suddenly rang out, “Stop!”
Everyone looked towards the old woman, Joanna Richardson who suddenly appeared on the stage.
She was supported by Abbott Morris and she walked to the centre of the stage in a furious manner,
shouting at Gianna.
Gianna paused her movement.
It wasn’t that she was afraid of Joanna; she just felt that she would make her lose face completely
since she wanted to embarrass herself.
She turned back and faced Joanna.
Joanna didn’t show any mercy to her and shouted in front of everyone, “Is marriage a child’s play? You
can’t be so nonsensical!”
Before she could say anything, Joanna reprimanded again, “This marriage was promised by your
grandfather personally. As the saying goes, parents are the matchmakers of the marriage! Now that the
Kennedy family has come to marry you in eight palanquins, do you regard your grandfather and elders
in your eyes if you leave like this? Do you still know family discipline?”
She didn’t expect that the Kennedy family had found helper so quickly.
It was true that the Kennedy family shouldn’t be underestimated as she had been cheated by them
back then.
However, she wasn’t Gianna like last time.
She wasn’t Gianna that could be threatened with a few words and would obey the orders as she was
told.
She looked at Joanna, “Is grandma thinking that as long as the elders have given me an engagement, I
should get married even if the other party is a murderer?”
The sarcastic words caused her face to turn dark instantly.
She said fiercely to her, “You don’t have to argue here! If he is a murderer, I’ll admit it, but he’s not! He
just made a mistake that all men will make. When he is blaming himself and feeling bad, you not only
didn’t stay with him through the difficult time, but left him behind! You’re her wife! The Morris family
don’t have descendant who is ungrateful like you!”
“Ungrateful?” she sneered again, “So in your mind, is it that I’m wrong as he cheated me? Is it that if I
cheat him, he should also forgive me unconditionally?”
“Gianna!” she was so angry that her face turned green, “How dare you say such words!”
“Yes. How dare you say this, grandma!” her voice was getting louder and her temper was getting
stronger, “Marriage is mine and I choose the right path for my happiness. How could you stop me with
your authority as elders?! Is it that it doesn’t matter whether if I’m fine in your mind and I can marry
whoever you think is profitable?”
“Shut up!” Joanna scolded.
Gianna outdid herself, “You’re disrespectful! You’re the one who should shut up!”
“Gianna, are you going to mess around?” she was exasperated.
It was unexpected that Gianna would argue with her even in front of everyone.
Not to mention last time, which they argued at the Morris family as there was no one else.
Now she dared to come at her in this way.
In her impression, Gianna wasn’t like this.
Ever since she was a kid, as long as she was slightly mean to her, Gianna would give in and admit her
mistakes.
Now she wasn’t afraid of her, she even defied her in front of so many people and made her to lose
face!
In the eyes of outsiders, she was the one who couldn’t even control her own granddaughter.
It might even be rumoured that she had no status at all in the Morris family.
Thinking of this, Joanna was even angrier.
Of course…
Gianna didn’t care anymore.
She didn’t intend to be merciful towards her.
She said indifferently, “Now I finally know why grandpa dislikes grandma so much! It turns out that you
didn’t own the right world outlook on life and values!”
“Gianna! What nonsense are you talking about! Do you want me to teach you a lesson for being so
rebellious since I’m your uncle?” Abbott interrupted her and he was trying to suppress her anger.
She turned her eyes to look at him, “I didn’t intend to embarrass the Morris family to such extent
actually and I didn’t even want to pursue this matter too thoroughly. Since you want to do justice for the
Morris family, why don’t we talk about the trigger of this incident? The affair between Caesar and your
daughter, Helen!”
His expression changed instantly.
They had just been asked by the Kennedy family to force Gianna to complete the wedding. Since they
had some dealings with them in private and moreover, Abbott intended to getthe Morris Group back
which he thought that it should belong to him using the power of the other family, so he straight away
agreed to do so.”
However, he neglected the fact that his daughter was the cause of this incident.
He was also embarrassing himself as he came to the stage.
Gianna didn’t give him any face at all and said aggressively, “Uncle, just now Caesar kept saying that it
was Helen who seduced him. Is that true? Do you want to confront her? If it’s true, I might still be able
to forgive him.”
“You!” Abbott was so furious that he wanted to beat her to death.
As soon as Caesar heard that she wanted to forgive her, he hurriedly spoke, “Where’s Helen? I want to
confront her!”
It had all been discovered anyway.
Since it had been revealed, he no longer had to worry that Helen would expose him.
He was simply playing around with Helen. In his opinion, she was inferior to Gianna.
At least Gianna was the authentic princess of the Morris family.
Helen was born to a concubine. It was mercy enough to her as he pampered her.
Abbott looked at Caesar and his face changed abruptly.
He had come to help him out now, yet he was just a bastard who immediately turned against him.
At this moment…
Helen was forced onto the stage by the Kennedy family.
Her starry gown shone brightly under the lights of the banquet hall.
She had thought that she was extremely beautiful. Now she was ashamed of herself due to this sudden
incident.
She was somewhat nervous as she faced everyone on the stage.
At that moment, she looked at him pitifully. Although he had flatly asserted that she had taken the
initiative, but she still comforted herself that he had no choice to do this.”
Until now, she still felt that Caesar could save her and protect her when she was forced to face this
matter.
She acted pitifully.
However, the next second, he said, “Helen, why did you drug me and use such a despicable and
shameless way to make me do something wrong to Gianna?”
