Chapter 12: Gemma’s Trick
Chapter 12: Gemma’s Trick
Fiona was frightened by Abbott’s aggressiveness.
She quickly protected Gianna.
Gianna’s look turned a little gloomy.
Seeing Abbott going to land a slap on her face, she straightaway took out her phone and yelled at him, “If you dare lay a finger on me, I’ll definitely take you to court! And I mean it!”
Abbott’s hand stopped in the air.
“I’m taking the video, do you still want to beat me?” Gianna asked him.
Abbott was so enraged that his body was trembling, yet he did not land his slap.
“Dad.” Baron hurriedly held him back. “Don’t argue with this slut, she could be arrogant now, but she’ll suffer from her bad karma one day.”
Abbott put down his hand hard.
He bawled at Gianna, “One day, you and your family would be doomed.”
That was in her previous life.
In this life, no one could harm her family. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Gianna held her mother’s hand and straightaway left the old mansion.
She left without care after making everyone in the old mansion go berserk.
“When had that brat become so eloquent now?” Juliet was bursting with anger too when she saw Gianna’s complacent look.
“Shut the fuck up would you!” Joanna finally exploded. She shouted right in her eldest daughter-in-law’s face, “What an idiot, you’ve truly disappointed me for spending effort on you all these years!”
Juliet was baffled by her scolding.
She had been helping her scolding Gianna all the time, when had she offended her?
She felt extremely unhappy.
Abbott was bursting with rage and he shouted at her, “You really can’t do anything right. My mother has cared about that sapphire for so long and because of you, Gianna has taken it back! Look how useless you are!”
“…” Juliet’s face flushed due to the humiliation.
Nothing could come out from her mouth.
She never thought that she had fallen into Gianna’s trap with just a few words.
That bitch.
She swore to torture her to death one day.
“To be honest, it’s actually quite easy to deal with Gianna,” Gemma suddenly spoke. Her voice was soft and anyone would think she was completely harmless, obedient and lovely.
“What good ideas could you possibly have?” Joanna glimpsed at her with contempt.
With Gemma’s background, she was even worse than Gianna, and Joanna had never treated her nicely.
“The things that make Gianna so proud are her father inheriting the family business and her marriage with Caesar Kennedy. If the marriage is gone, she would not be so reckless anymore.”
“Anyone with a brain could figure that out.” Juliet was in a rage and she could not help but snap when Gemma spoke.
Gemma said, “My point is, if Helen’s been with Caesar, there’s nothing Gianna could do.”
Juliet was startled.
Helen who was sitting beside looked up too.
She did not speak, but she did have that thought in mind too.
She was the eldest mistress of the Morris family, but how could Gianna steal all her limelight? Even the best man in Country B became hers. She felt indignant about that.
“There’s still one month left until the wedding. As long as we stop Gianna from getting married to Caesar, she would not dare to act so boldly anymore!”
“Easy for you to say, can’t you tell how much Caesar likes Gianna?” Helen could not help but tease.
“It’s indeed not easy to make Caesar fall in love with you in just a month, but…” Gemma stopped and there seemed to be something she could not say.
“Spill the bean would you. Given birth by an underclass as expected.”
“Helen, Morris!” Abbott pulled down his face.
Helen rolled her eyes.
That little slut had managed to win her father’s heart.
“I’m afraid that you’ll go upset if I say it.” Gemma refused to say on purpose.
“I won’t be happy for anything you say, but I’ll be unhappier if you don’t! So spill the bean!” Helen bawled with impatience.
Gemma glanced at her father and after seeing his encouraging eyes, she said with caution, “It will be easy if you sleep Caesar.”
Everyone looked at Gemma.
Gemma was slightly embarrassed from their attention and she hurriedly explained, “That’s just my idea, if it’s inappropriate, pretend I’ve never said it. I didn’t mean any harm. It’s just that I don’t want to see granny, daddy, mommy and my siblings being bullied by Gianna like that. I was just…”
As she spoke, the rim of her eyes went red again and she looked fragile and pitiful, afraid of being scolded.
“Enough, stop crying would you. People would think the Morris’s family has been treating you badly.” Juliet saw her look like an eyesore.
Gemma wept and tried her best not to let out any sound.
“Alright, we’ll talk about Gianna and Caesar’s marriage afterwards. I’ve had a bellyful of anger today and I want to rest now. Abbott, take me to the room,” Joanna summoned Abbott.
Abbott quickly agreed.
He knew well that his mother must have agreed to Gemma’s suggestion and she wanted to discuss it with him. Or else, Gemma would have been bombarded with criticisms for whatever she said with her status.
After Joanna and Abbott left, Helen could not help but mock Gemma, “You’re despicable as expected with all those underhand tricks. Were they all thought of by your deceased mother? Tell me, how many men have you slept?”
“No, Helen, I was just, I was really saying that for your own good…” The rim of Gemma’s eyes went red again and she looked terribly aggrieved.
Helen only left after she gave another curse.
Baron and Juliet were certainly disdainful of her and they left straight after her. Gemma was left alone in the spacious main house.
Gemma naturally did not have to pretend to be pitiful anymore when there was no one around.
She let out a grim smile.
She knew very well that the Morris’s would definitely adopt her suggestion, and she certainly was not as kind as to how she pretended to be. She was waiting for Helen to doom herself so she could take over her place naturally.
She would then replace Gianna and become the real, eldest mistress of the Morris’s!
…
Meanwhile, Gianna and her mother were heading home while sitting inside their car.
Fiona only then stopped her heart from racing and regained her composure in the car.
She was slightly excited. “Gina, how, how could you be that…brilliant today? You’ve truly impressed me.”
Gianna chuckled. “Mom, I won’t let granny bully you anymore in the future.”
“But…how could you be that bold to argue with your grandma? You’ve even made your grandma’s face go pale.”
“That’s because granny’s being too harsh,” Gianna said. “Mom, don’t you obey any moral principles anymore, granny doesn’t deserve you respecting her.”
You respected her, but she had tried all means to harm you!
“Although your grandma was indeed a little harsh to me, she’s your father’s mother, after all, I can’t give your father trouble.”
“Don’t worry, I just want to make granny not dare to do anything to you, I won’t really…” I won’t really take her life away!
But it would be under one condition, that is, Joanna learns when to give up.
If she was still reluctant to repent, don’t blame her for punishing her without caring that she was her grandma!
