Her Cancellation of the Engagement novel Chapter 20

Chapter 20 I'll Stay Here

"It's just an investment, as long as we don't marry Alisa to Mr. Lloyd, there are plenty of ways to attract investments," Brenna said, her eyes filled with calculations.

She forced Gianna to marry Mr. Finley not only for the investment from the Finley family but also to protect Alisa.

Alisa was carefully cultivated by Brenna with a substantial investment of manpower and financial resources, and has become a great female talent renowned in Rheinsville City.

In the future, Alisa's benefits for the Geller family will be considerable. Brenna would never allow Alisa to marry Mr. Finley no matter what.

Although Damian dotes on Lloyd, the young man is disabled. He also has three uncles, three elder brothers, many cousins, and other family members. When the family property is divided in the future, what can a disabled person like him get?

Therefore, even if the two families are united through marriage, the benefits that the Finley family can bring to the Geller family are limited, while Alisa is a stable investment.

Brenna was afraid that the engagement with the Finley family might have any mishap, so she forced Gianna to engage with Lloyd.

Gianna's theft was a disgrace for the prominent families like them, and the Finley family naturally wouldn't want her anymore. The engagement will be cancelled accordingly, saving them from the trouble of having her coming back to cause distress.

That's why Brenna agreed with Alisa's plan.

Brenna pondered for a moment and said to Alisa, "Go find the media and expose Gianna's theft."

Alisa was taken aback, "But this will have a big impact on our family."

What would people think of the Geller family when they found out that their young miss was a thief?

This would be harmful to everyone involved.

"No worries. Her mother eloped with someone else and took her away. The Geller family is the victim," Brenna said, sitting in her expensive custom chair, her aged and murky eyes showing a hint of coldness.

Alisa was startled, then smiled, "I see, grandma."

Criminal Police Unit of Rheinsville City.

Gianna was leaning on the interrogation chair, with her slender legs crossed. On the table in front of her was a mobile phone that law enforcement officers tried to force on her but was rejected.

The interrogation room was quiet, but the constant ringing of the phone did not stop for a moment.

The two law enforcement officers who brought her here were sweating profusely and extremely nervous.

Seeing that she still didn't answer the phone, one of them kindly suggested, "Ms. Geller, the phone has been ringing for so long. Why don't you answer it?"

Gianna lifted her eyes slightly, revealing a faint smile on her crimson lips. "Sorry, I'm a law-abiding citizen and I remember what the police officer said. Hand over the phone and cooperate for the investigation."

The law enforcement officer, "..."

He felt like crying.

Normally, there was nothing wrong with what he had done.

Someone reported that the girl had stolen something worth 850 thousand dollars, so they brought her back for interrogation and confiscated her mobile phone, which was well within the normal range of procedures. They weren't making things difficult for her.

But who would have known that as soon as they brought her back to the Criminal Police Unit, the telephone in the captain's office started ringing.

Captain Dillan wasn't there. Therefore, he answered it.

The result - scared them to death!

They received numerous calls, all from higher-ups, and all asking if they had caught someone named Gianna Geller.

After telling the higher-ups the truth, he was scolded severely and asked to release her.

But when he tried to let her go, she refused to leave.

Her butt was like nailed to the chair, and several people couldn't lift her up.
