Her Cancellation of the Engagement novel Chapter 24

Chapter 24 You Have a Bad Reputation

Lloyd glanced at the little girl next to Erica.

His fingers, which were resting on the edge of the wheelchair, suddenly tightened. He couldn't control himself and stood up from the wheelchair. His slender eyes stared at her tightly, and his voice trembled as if something was caught in his throat. After a long time, he asked with a trembling voice, "T... Taryn?"

He, who usually remained calm and unemotional, couldn't even finish his sentence.

Taryn walked up to him and smiled sweetly, "Lloyd, it's me, I'm Taryn."

Irvin and Murray stared at Taryn in disbelief.

The air froze for a moment.

After a long time, Irvin was the first to recover. He checked Taryn, and was speechless with excitement, "Is it really you, Taryn? You're not lying to us, are you?"

Looking at his shocked expression, Taryn chuckled, "Irvin, it's really me, I'm not lying! My illness is cured, and I've become beautiful. Are you happy for me?"

Irvin was speechless for a while.

Happy!

Of course, he was happy for her. Over the years, they had put in so much effort for her illness.

Lloyd even blamed himself every day.

But now, Taryn's illness had inexplicably disappeared.

How could he not be happy?

How could he not be excited?

He was too excited to even speak.

Lloyd knelt down and hugged Taryn in his arms, gently stroking her head. However, he couldn't say a word, his lips slightly parted.

After a long while, Lloyd sat back in his wheelchair and raised his slender eyes to look at Erica, "What happened?"

Erica knew that she couldn't keep it from Lloyd any longer, so she said, "Ms. Geller cured Taryn's illness."

"Ms. Geller?" Irvin wondered, "Alisa Geller?"

Erica Haney didn't know Gianna's real name, so she had to explain, "When Ms. Geller saved Taryn at the entrance of the shopping mall, she came to see her once and said she could cure Taryn's illness. But we had to keep it a secret and not tell anyone, not even Taryn's family."

Erica lowered her head and whispered, "Taryn trusts Ms. Geller and asked me to help keep it a secret. I... also wanted Taryn to get better, so I helped Ms. Geller hide it from you. Every morning, after you left the hospital, Taryn would send a message to Ms. Geller, and she would come to treat her."

After speaking, Erica hurriedly added, "Lloyd, this is my fault. I shouldn't have kept it from you. I just ask that you don't drive me away. I have taken care of Taryn as if she were my own child for these years, and I..."

Erica cried as she spoke, very afraid that Lloyd would be angry and kick her out.

Others may not know Lloyd, but she did.

In the Finley family, Lloyd was someone who kept his word.

Outsiders thought he was a cripple and a waste.

But he was not.

No one knew that the position of the Finley family as the most wealthy family in Reland was actually the effort of Lloyd.

No one knew about this except Damian and her.

Lloyd's dark eyes stared closely at her face, and after a moment, he opened his mouth slowly, "Erica, you are the person I personally selected. You should know what to do and what not to do!"
