Chapter 32 Even an Engagement Can be Broken


    Chapter 32 Even an Engagement Can be Broken


    Sherman stood up abruptly, ring fiercely at Lloyd as if he wanted to break him apart and devour


    him.


    His fists clenched tightly as he angrily said, "Tell me, did you threaten Gia? Let me tell you, while


    others may fear the Finley family, I don''t. If you dare to force my daughter to marry you, even if it


    costs my life, I will fight you to the end."


    Laney nodded in agreement. "Yes, I will fight you too."


    "Ahem!" Gianna pulled Sherman back and whispered, "Mr. Geller, please calm down. It was my


    voluntary decision to get engaged to him."


    Upon hearing this, both Sherman and Laney were stunned, unable to react for a while.


    After a long while, Laney was the first to react, anxiously saying, "Gia, didn''t you say you didn''t want


    to marry him? Howe now... He must have threatened you, right? Don''t be afraid, and tell us.


    Although your father and I don''t have much power, we won''t let you marry someone you don''t want


    to marry."


    After speaking, Laney red at Lloyd. "If he dares to threaten you, we will sue him. I don''t believe


    that the Finley family, no matter how powerful it might be, can surpass thew."


    Sherman didn''t say anything, but his eyes looking at Lloyd were like knives, as if he wanted to stab


    him to death.


    How dare he have thoughts about his daughter, despicable!


    Lloyd was speechless.


    Threaten?


    I didn''t do it and please don''t say nonsense.


    Gianna pinched her forehead. "There was no threat. I just want to get engaged."


    "This..." Sherman didn''t know what to say for a moment.


    Since Gianna wanted to marry on her own, he had no reason to stop her.


    But Lloyd...


    His gaze fell on Lloyd''s legs. With his disability, could he protect Gia?


    The Finley family had many rules and Gia, who grew up in Lancaster Shrine, didn''t understand the


    etiquette and rules of these big families very well. What would happen if she encountered difficulties


    after going to the Finley family?


    Lloyd seemed to understand his concerns and spoke in a gentle tone, "You don''t have to worry. If


    Ms. Geller marries me in the future, I will never let her suffer."


    Moreover, that girl didn''t seem like someone who would be easily mistreated.


    Just her medical skills alone had earned the admiration of many people.


    Sherman didn''t respond instead he looked at Gianna. "Have you really thought it through?"


    Gianna nodded. "Yes, don''t worry. It''s just an engagement, and I can always break it off."


    Lloyd''s mouth twitched unconsciously.


    This girl was already thinking about breaking off the engagement before it was even set.


    Sherman didn''t know what had happened between Gianna and Lloyd, but he assumed that they


    had gotten to know each other quite well these past few days. Otherwise, Gianna wouldn''t have


    treated Lloyd''s sister. So he didn''t say anything further and simply said, "If you''ve made up your


    mind, then I''ll respect your decision."


    But he didn''t know that Gia actually knew medical skills.


    "The engagement party will be ten dayster and we''ll discuss the details after the party." Lloyd


    obviously paid a lot of attention to the matter of getting engaged to Gianna.


    "Well." Although Sherman did not stop Gianna and Lloyd from getting engaged, he was extremely


    ufortable in his heart.


    He had just found his daughter, and within less than a month, she was already getting engaged to


    someone else.


    Half an hourter.


    Alisa returned.


    In her hands were two boxes.


    She had someone bring over all the things that Lloyd had given her. Her expression was not very


    pleasant as she said, "Mr. Finley, everything is here. You better count them yourself, so that there


    won''t be any confusionter."


    Lloyd didn''t even spare her a nce and simply said, "Murray."


    Murray stood up and went over to carefully count all the items. His expression was serious and


    focused.


    Seeing this, Alisa looked grimmer.


    This damned Lloyd!


    He actually really counted them.


    "Mr. Finley, everything is in order," Murray said after finishing the count.


    "Okay." Lloyd nodded and then looked at Gianna. "Ms. Geller, I apologize for the misunderstanding


    earlier. Tomorrow, I will prepare a thank-you gift and personallye to express my gratitude."


    "No need!" Gianna replied indifferently, "I saved Taryn, and it has nothing to do with you."


    "There should be a thank-you gift..."


    Before he could finish his sentence, Gianna raised her gaze. She said word by word with a grim


    face, "It has nothing to do with you!"


    Lloyd''s words got stuck in his throat.


    The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.


    Even Taryn noticed it.


    She tilted her head and earnestly educated Lloyd, "Lloyd, this is between me and Gianna. If anyone


    should be thankful, it should be me."

    After speaking, she turned to look at Gianna, "Right, Gianna?"


    Gianna''s lips curved into a slight smile. "Yes."


    Taryn proudly smiled at Lloyd, "Lloyd, I hold a greater ce in Gianna''s heart than you do."


    Lloyd was speechless.


    On the side, Alisa clenched her fists as she watched themugh and talk, no one paying her any


    attention. She could hardly contain her expression.


    She was humiliated thoroughly today.


    Just wait!


    She would definitely regain her status.


    She didn''t look at them again and turned to leave.


    During the halfway point of the banquet, a maid brought some wine.


    She ced a ss in front of each person at the table.


    When the ss was ced in front of Gianna, she looked up and smiled mischievously, "I don''t


    drink it."


    "Ah?" The maid was momentarily stunned, then she was panicked, "I''m sorry, Ms. Geller, I didn''t


    know. I''ll get you a different drink right away."


    The maid hurriedly took the wine ss away and soon she returned with a ss of beverage.


    Gianna held the ss, staring at the drink through the transparent ss. Her beautiful eyes slightly


    narrowed, and the meaning of her smile was unclear.


    After a while, she finished the drink in one gulp.


    Not far away, Alisa''s gaze turned cold as she saw Gianna finish the drink.


    A few minutester, the same maid came over again to serve wine and beverages to everyone.


    Laney nced at her, feeling somewhat puzzled. "You''re being very diligent with the wine service,


    aren''t you?"


    She didn''t mean anything else, but in the past, whether it was family gatherings or various


    banquets, they, sitting in the corner, didn''t receive such treatment.


    Forgetting about serving wine and beverages, even when they wanted a napkin, the maid would


    use the excuse of being too busy and ask them to get it themselves.


    Today it was unexpected that the maid came with several visits in a while.


    "Ah, I..."


    The maid immediately became flustered. She wanted to exin, but identally she shook her


    hand and spilled the drink all over Gianna. She hurriedly grabbed some tissues to wipe Gianna,


    saying, "I''m sorry, Ms. Geller, it was not intentional."


    Gianna stood up and looked at her deeply.


    The maid felt guilty under her gaze and quickly said, "Ms. Geller, let me take you to change your


    clothes."


    Gianna''s lips curved into a smile. "Change into yours?"


    The maid was about to reply when Alisa suddenly walked over. "Why don''t you wear mine instead,


    Gianna? I''m sorry, the maid was clumsy and dirtied your clothes. I''ll get a new set for you. You can


    change in the maid''s room on the first floor."


    "Heh~"


    Lloydughed.


    He held a wine ss in one hand and rested the other on the edge of the wheelchair. His voice was


    mocking. "The Geller family has such good manners."


    Alisa''s face turned red. How could she not hear the sarcasm in Lloyd''s words? He was mocking her,


    a foster daughter, for acting like a rich youngdy and asking Gianna, the real heiress, to change in


    the maid''s room.


    She clenched her fists and suppressed her inner resentment, still smiling. "Gianna, please don''t


    misunderstand..."


    "Take me there." Gianna interrupted Alisa''s words.


    "What?" Alisa was momentarily confused.


    "Aren''t you asking me to change clothes? Let''s go then." Gianna''s enchanting eyes swept over


    Alisa, and a faint smile was always on her lips.


    Alisa felt inexplicably flustered by her smile. Did she discover something?


    No, that couldn''t be!


    She was just a country bumpkin, and how could she find out?


    Thinking this, Alisa didn''t say much and took Gianna to the maid''s room.
