Her Cancellation of the Engagement novel Chapter 18

Chapter 18 Gianna Is a Thief 

In the Geller's villa... 

Alisa rushed back and said in a hurry, "Granny, Dad and Mom have rented a house in Fallingwater Community." 

"No way!" 

Brenna, Enrique, and Chace rose from their seats immediately and stared at Alisa in surprise. 

After a while, Brenna was the first to collect herself and asked with a shocked expression, "Are you sure? Fallingwater Community doesn't offer rentals to just anyone." 

Alisa replied with a serious face, "I asked the security guard, and their house is indeed rented. The rent is very low, only 85 dollars a month." 

Brenna fell silent and furrowed her brows. After a few minutes, finally, she spoke up, "Enrique, find out who owns that house. No matter what it takes, we must kick them out of the house. The engagement party arranged by the Finley family is just two days away, and we must make sure everything goes as planned." 

Enrique said, "I'll take care of it right now." 

Alisa frowned and after hesitating for a moment she said slowly, "Granny, I have an idea, but..." 

"What is it? Spit it out." Brenna urged. 

Alisa bent over and whispered a few words into Brenna's ear. Hearing what she said, Brenna said with a pleasing smile, "Good, that’s an excellent plan. Let's do it." 

"But... this might hurt Gianna." Alisa hesitated. 

"Who cares? She's just an outsider who will never be recognized as one of our family. 

If this engagement falls apart, Gianna won't have anything to do with the Geller family." Brenna replied with a cold glimmer in her eyes. 

"Then I'll do what you said, Granny." Alisa lowered her head and no one noticed the venomous look on her face. 

The next day... 

Gianna got up early for her morning run. 

It had been a daily routine she had adhered to for the past decade. 

Gianna had just walked outside the neighborhood when she ran into Alisa and her two classmates, who had invited Alisa over. 

Seeing Gianna, Alisa quickly approached her and asked, "Gianna? What are you doing here?" 

Gianna glanced at her and asked, "What's up?" 

What kind of game was she playing? 

Didn't she already know they lived here? 

"No, nothing," Alisa put on a frightened expression and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you staying at a motel? Why are you here?" 

"Oh, I live here." Gianna looked at her and found it interesting. 

If Alisa wanted to put on a show, she decided to play along. 

"What?" Alisa didn’t expect Gianna would cooperate and was surprised. Quickly, she regained her composure and said, "Are you saying you live here? Gianna, do you even know where this is?" 

Gianna raised her eyebrow and replied, "Fallingwater Community?" 

"Don’t you know that outsiders aren't allowed to enter Fallingwater Community?" Alisa chuckled, "Gianna, I know you're new to this place since you just arrived in the city, but this neighborhood isn't where you belong. You should just leave. If someone loses something, it'll be hard for you to explain." 

Gianna smiled and asked, "Where do you want me to go?" 

"Aren’t you staying at the motel? You should go back there of course." Alisa retorted. 

Before Gianna said anything, one of Alisa's classmates standing beside her asked, "Alisa, who is she?" 

The one speaking to Alisa was Amari, the daughter of the Harper family. 

The Harper family was not so powerful as the Geller family in Rheinsville City.
