His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 222

"Mandy, do you really have no idea... how my grandma got injured?" Aron asked, skeptically. 'Since Mandy doesn't want to let it go, I need to tell her what Becky did to Grandma, ' Aron thought to himself.

Mandy narrowed her eyes with a bit of anxiety when she heard Aron's tone. Of course she knew what had happened to Joanna, but she had to keep pretending to be unaware of it because she didn't want them to cancel the wedding. As for the wedding... she was unwilling to give up on it.

"Isn't Isla responsible for your Grandma's injury? What does Becky have to do with it? Don't try to change the subject, " Mandy answered.

"I never said that Becky was involved in my grandma's injury. Why would you assume that?" Mandy's ambiguous defense was shot down by Aron. The only thing she could rely on was her strength to pester others.

"I..." Mandy muttered. After a long pause she continued, "I don't really care about that. Are you going to marry Becky or not?"

"No, I am not, " Aron replied straightforwardly. "Mandy, we won't be pressing charges against Becky for what she did to my Grandma. I won't ask you to return the bride-price. I have even saved your family's face at the press conference. I have done more than I should have, for your family, but if you keep coming at us like this, I'll be forced to take drastic measures against you."

"You..." Mandy stammered. Once she realized that she couldn't persuade Aron, she turned to Mike and Joanna. "You know what kind of girl Becky is. She would never do such a terrible thing. The wedding preparations are almost done; we can't call off the wedding now. Please help me persuade him not to act so rashly."

"You flatter us, " Mike responded. He got annoyed at the thought of being cheated by Becky's fake innocence. "Mrs. Zhao, marriage is an important commitment, to Aron. Now that he doesn't have feelings for Becky, we shouldn't interfere with his decision. Since the cancellation of their wedding has already been announced publicly at the conference, we should let it go as well. As of today, we will have nothing to do with you. If we ever meet again, I think it would be better not to greet each other."

"You... Now you're intimidating me because I am at a disadvantage. I won't forget this, " Mandy said angrily. "We are one of the richest and most influential family in Y City. You will regret treating us like this, " Mandy threatened.

"I'm not a coward. If you choose to retaliate, I will willingly face anything you throw at me and my family, " Aron responded resolutely. "But right now... the most important thing is to find Becky and bring her back."

Besides, Becky was a girl. It wasn't safe for her to be outside during late hours. Aron feared that Becky might get into trouble.

"It doesn't matter what happened before. Our biggest concern right now is to find Becky, " Joanna broke in. She was also worried about Becky's safety.

'In any case, Becky had treated me kindly in the past, ' Joanna thought to herself.
