His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 159

"Cousin, I …" Becky bit her lip, her eyes asking for Joanna's help. Joanna had been watching quietly. She mulled over, 'I will find out what kind of person Isla is. There is no need to make an ugly scene. If she is highly cultured and reasonable, I will talk to her and solve the problem peacefully.' Isla turned out to be an arrogant woman. Joanna decided to change her strategy and get straight to the point.

She didn't expect all of this to have been plotted by Becky. Becky provoked and angered Isla on purpose so that Joanna would think the worst of her, forming a stark contrast with her virtuous and good-natured character. Becky believed that she was the better partner for Aron, compared to such an impolite and rude Isla.

"Becky, are you alright?" Joanna asked with her brows knitted as she got Becky back on her feet. Becky cast an angry look in Isla's direction and replied, "Grandmother, I am okay." When Isla heard Becky call the old woman "Grandmother", she realized who Joanna was and why Becky created this drama. Isla thought, 'Becky did all of this intentionally so that Aron's grandmother will think badly of me.

Becky will do everything she can just like she did four years ago to push me away from Aron.'

"You are Miss Zhao, aren't you?" Joanna sneered at Isla, "I am Aron's grandmother. But I don't know if it is my place to talk to you about Aron."

"Madam, things are not as what Becky has told you. She took Aron away from…" Isla was anxious to explain. She had never forgotten Aron all these years. Although she has not yet agreed to be Aron's girlfriend, she wanted to show the best of herself in front of his grandmother. After all, if Aron's family didn't like her, it would be a big problem for him. So Isla wanted to tell the truth about the story of their love and what a bad person Becky was.

But Becky wouldn't give Isla any chance to explain herself. She said in a low and sad voice as she held Joanna's hand, "Grandmother, let's go. There is no need to talk to her. If Aron knew we came here, he would get angry. I am sure he will think I compelled you to bother Isla."

"Don't worry!" Joanna said without reservation, "Since we are already here, let's be frank and put our cards on the table. If Aron asks about this, I will stick up for you. Miss Zhao, I agree with you. There is no need to waste time. I am telling you now, Becky will be my granddaughter-in-law. I will never allow you to marry Aron."

Joanna gave Isla an icy smile and continued, "Over the last four years, Becky is the one who has always been with Aron and taken care of us. We have already accepted her as our granddaughter-in-law. Listen, you are good-looking and pretty. If you'd like, you can marry whomever you can lay your eyes on. Why are you so determined to get in between your cousin and Aron? Don't you feel shameful? Has no one ever taught you manners?"

"Grandmother, it's just a misunderstanding. The truth is four years ago, Becky, she…. " Joanna interrupted Isla, "Stop. Please address me as 'Madam'. Don't call me grandmother. In my heart, you will never be Aron's partner." Becky had told Joanna too many bad things about her.
