Caesar was dumbfounded by her slap on the spot.
He stared at her and was out of sorts.
She hit him!
This kind of woman who had been educated by the upper class and would only stick to the rules, hit him in front of everyone!
He looked at her in anger.
She directly shrugged off his hand in the second he was dazed, then turned around and left.
He clenched his fists.
He was still trying to figure out how to make her stay and how to continue their wedding.
Just at that moment…
An old but stern voice suddenly rang out, “Stop!”
Everyone looked towards the old woman, Joanna Richardson who suddenly appeared on the stage.
She was supported by Abbott Morris and she walked to the centre of the stage in a furious manner, shouting at Gianna.
Gianna paused her movement.
It wasn’t that she was afraid of Joanna; she just felt that she would make her lose face completely since she wanted to embarrass herself.
She turned back and faced Joanna.
Joanna didn’t show any mercy to her and shouted in front of everyone, “Is marriage a child’s play? You can’t be so nonsensical!”
Before she could say anything, Joanna reprimanded again, “This marriage was promised by your grandfather personally. As the saying goes, parents are the matchmakers of the marriage! Now that the Kennedy family has come to marry you in eight palanquins, do you regard your grandfather and elders in your eyes if you leave like this? Do you still know family discipline?”
She didn’t expect that the Kennedy family had found helper so quickly.
It was true that the Kennedy family shouldn’t be underestimated as she had been cheated by them back then.
However, she wasn’t Gianna like last time.
She wasn’t Gianna that could be threatened with a few words and would obey the orders as she was told.
She looked at Joanna, “Is grandma thinking that as long as the elders have given me an engagement, I should get married even if the other party is a murderer?”
The sarcastic words caused her face to turn dark instantly.
She said fiercely to her, “You don’t have to argue here! If he is a murderer, I’ll admit it, but he’s not! He just made a mistake that all men will make. When he is blaming himself and feeling bad, you not only didn’t stay with him through the difficult time, but left him behind! You’re her wife! The Morris family don’t have descendant who is ungrateful like you!”
“Ungrateful?” she sneered again, “So in your mind, is it that I’m wrong as he cheated me? Is it that if I cheat him, he should also forgive me unconditionally?”
“Gianna!” she was so angry that her face turned green, “How dare you say such words!”
“Yes. How dare you say this, grandma!” her voice was getting louder and her temper was getting stronger, “Marriage is mine and I choose the right path for my happiness. How could you stop me with your authority as elders?! Is it that it doesn’t matter whether if I’m fine in your mind and I can marry whoever you think is profitable?”
“Shut up!” Joanna scolded.
Gianna outdid herself, “You’re disrespectful! You’re the one who should shut up!”
“Gianna, are you going to mess around?” she was exasperated.
It was unexpected that Gianna would argue with her even in front of everyone.
Not to mention last time, which they argued at the Morris family as there was no one else.
Now she dared to come at her in this way.
In her impression, Gianna wasn’t like this.
