Chapter 38 Are You Surprised
Chapter 38 Are You Surprised
When Alisa was being stared at by Gianna, her heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
How scary she is!
Alisa subconsciously took a step back.
Everyone else was also intimidated by the momentum emanating from Gianna.
They couldn''t help but wonder, "Is she really a country girl?"
The kind of aura she exudes is something that many youngdies from wealthy families don''t
possess.
The air was filled with an awkward atmosphere, and Sherman remained silent for a moment before
asking Gianna, "Is there really no way?"

"Yes, there is. We just have to wait for the effects of the drug to wear off," Gianna replied with a
much-improved tone towards Sherman.
Upon hearing this, Sherman only nodded his head. He simply said, "Since you can''t solve it, let''s go
back then. If there''s nothing important, we won''te here again."
These words undoubtedly humiliated Brenna publicly.
She suddenly became angry and said, "Sherman! What do you mean? Are you cutting ties with
me?"
"Mother!" Sherman said sternly, "I still call you mother out of respect for giving birth to me and
raising me. You are my birth mother and I won''t cut ties with you. I will do my best to only take care
of you, but I won''t bother you with my family affairs."
"You don''t like Gia, and I won''t bring her over to be humiliated by you again. She is my daughter,
and if you don''t care about her, I do!"
After speaking, Sherman took Gianna and left.
Brenna''s chest rose and fell with anger as she cursed, "How dare you! I am the head of this family! I
make all the decisions here, and since she is a granddaughter of this family, she should obey me!"
Gianna stopped and turned to look at her. "No one can make decisions for me!"
"You!" Brenna wanted to curse at Gianna, but couldn''t say anything too harsh in front of so many
guests, and was momentarily speechless.
Gianna ignored her and turned to Lloyd. "Mr. Finley, there is only one condition for our engagement:
the dowry must go to Mr. Geller, my father. Lady Geller did not raise me, so she has no right to get
the dowry."
Lloyd smiled and said, "Okay!"
Brenna, Alisa, and everyone else werepletely stunned.
Brenna was the first to react, and her voice rose unconsciously. "Engagement? You agreed to the
engagement?"
Gianna smiled slyly. "Yes, I agreed a few days ago. The engagement will take ce in ten days. Are
you surprised? Did you expect this?"
Brenna felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck her head, leaving herpletely dazed!
It turned out that when Lloyd said the engagement was postponed for ten daysst time, they had
actually rescheduled it for ten dayster!
She had been foolish enough to think that Lloyd was interested in Alisa!
If she had known earlier, why bother with all the calctions? Now, both her reputation and dignity
werepletely ruined!
Gianna, this little bitch! She must have done this on purpose!
"Gianna! Grandma is your elder and has always been in charge of family matters. The dowry should
be given to her, how can you ask Mr. Finley to give it to Dad?"
Alisa also regained her senses, her hands unconsciously clenched, and she felt as if her face was
being pped!
Gianna had clearly promised to engage with Lloyd, but remained silent, causing them to make such
a big joke!
What''s more important is that the dowry is not given to them!
How could this be eptable?
"Yes!" Brenna immediately took over, "This is a big act of unfiliality!"
"Heh~" Gianna sneered, "Say whatever you want, this is how I am!"
Having said that, she turned around and walked away without even sparing them a nce.
She could leave decisively like this, and Brenna should really be grateful for giving birth to
Sherman!
Otherwise!
The cost that they had to pay today would be more.
The whole farce has finally ended.
The crowds of onlookers dispersed.
Although Brenna repeatedly made it clear that this was a disgraceful matter for her family and
asked everyone not to spread it, it was still exposed by someone to the media.
That night, the Geller family became the top trending topic on social media.
The video of Chace having sexual intercourse with the maid was also posted online with blurred
images.
[The waters in the high society are so deep. Grandma drugging granddaughter, even TV dramas
wouldn''t dare to portray such a thing, would they?]
[I wonder what was going through the mind of the olddy. It''s obvious that her biological
granddaughter is much more beautiful than the adopted one, isn''t it? I can''t believe she took the
side of the adopted. It''s like she''spletely blind!]
[I really admire Ms. Geller. Even after being drugged, she remained calm and managed to find an
antidote for herself. And as for Mr. Finley, despite being disabled, he proved himself to be a true
gentleman and didn''t take advantage of Ms. Geller when she was under the drug influence. If it
were any other man in his position, he might not have been able to control himself.]
[Wow! Ms. Geller and Mr. Finley have won me over as their fans.]
At the same time, "enthusiasticizens" have exposed Chace''s private life.
[Oh my god! This isn''t drugging, it''s clearly an affair! Chace and the maid have been having an affair
for a long time, and they even have a secret child who is already six years old.]
[Chace bought a house for the maid in a residentialmunity. I often see him appearing in that
area. I used to think it was a house he bought for himself, but I didn''t expect it to be their love nest.]
[This mistress looks so in! Is Chace blind? His wife is much more beautiful. He has such a
beautiful wife but still keeps a mistress? Oh my god! The world of the rich is really beyond my
comprehension.]
As Chace''s affair was exposed on the Inte, the Geller family fell into a mess.
After waking up in the hospital, Libby saw the posts on the media and felt a surge of anger, and
nearly couldn''t calm down.
She smashed her phone and sat up to go find Chace for an exnation, "Chace, you bastard! Not
only did you cheat on me, but you also raised a secret child out there. I''m going to kill you!"
Her mother, who was taking care of her in the hospital, hurriedly stopped her and said, "What we
read online may not necessarily be true. Don''t get too worked up. What if your husband is being
falsely used? Let''s investigate first. If it is true that he has cheated, it''s not toote to hold him
ountable after that."
"Why bother investigating?" Libby couldn''t help but burst into tears. "The photos of his cheating
have already been exposed. The woman in his arms is the maid! They were having an affair right
under my nose, and I was so stupid that I didn''t even realize it!"
Libby felt like pping herself in the face out of anger and frustration!
She and Chace were college ssmates, and they dated for five years before getting married. They
had always had a good rtionship.
After she married into the Geller family, she has been taking care of all the household chores and
trivial matters by herself, working hard to be a good wife.
However, she often had arguments with Chace because of Brenna.
Brenna was a person who would stop at nothing to achieve her goals. Libby knew her n to drug
Gianna earlier and had opposed it, but it was useless.
Nevertheless, she had never doubted her husband''s love for her!
She believed that Chace would never cheat on her.
However, the evidence before her pped her in the face!
"The media always exaggerates things. Besides, even if he''s cheating, we need evidence," Mrs.
Heppel consoled in a low voice. "You should rest first. I''ll have your father investigate and if your
husband did something bad, Mom will make sure justice is served!"
Libby pondered for a moment and said, "Let my father conduct a paternity test on that child!"
"Okay."
