Her Cancellation of the Engagement novel Chapter 42

Chapter 42 The Truth 

It was Monday today. Many people in the community were about to work at this time. There were four households on this floor. Because of Chace, all of them opened their doors and came out. 

"What's wrong with you? This is a private residence instead of a food market. Please keep quiet!" 

"Where is the security guard? Who allowed them in? I worked late yesterday. I was extremely cheesed off to be woken so early!" 

"Be quiet! If you are deaf to advice, I will call the police!" 

Hearing neighbors' complaints, Sherman apologized to them one after another, then pulled Chace into his house. 

"Chace, what do you want to do?" Sherman frowned. 

"Don't you know?" Chace roared with an ugly expression. "Stop acting the fool! Sherman, she is your daughter. She philtered me and disseminated those photos. She wants me to die!" 

"You'd better guard your tongue!" When Sherman was about to say something, Laney spoke sternly, "Yesterday, it was you who put philter in Gia's beverage, but you didn't expect to have bad luck. Now you're blaming her? She is only nineteen years old, and you falsely accused her. What do you mean?" 

"Laney, shut up! Who do you think you are? You don't have the right to speak here! You think you're a member of the Geller family because you married my brother?" 

"Shut the hell up!" Sherman suddenly shouted, "She's my wife! How could you humiliate her?" 

He didn't want to quarrel with Chace openly. Anyway, they were brothers, but how could he insult his wife in front of him? 

Chace didn't expect his brother to get angry with him. After all, Sherman was good-tempered at ordinary times. He was absent-minded for a while and said, "How dare you speak to me like that? You've been bewitched by Laney and Gianna!" 

"Chace! I had already made it clear to mom yesterday. From now on, we will not interfere with each other. You should not go to my house. You are not welcome here!" 

Sherman had never behaved so toughly. He said clearly and seriously, "As for the matter that you were philtered, that has nothing to do with Gia. You should question mom! If she hadn't asked Alisa to put philter in Gia's beverage, such a thing wouldn't have happened. Moreover, you must have known it ahead of time. Gia is a victim, and you have no right to scold her!" 

Chace was temporarily speechless owing to Sherman's words. 

He did have known about Brenna's plan a long time ago. 

He had also helped her with that. 

But he didn't expect that the philter would be taken by himself. Lots of people had witnessed he and Stacy making love. 

Stacy was the nanny last night. 

Chace had been hiding their relationship from others, and no one had discovered it before. 

However, after last night, this matter was exposed to the media. He couldn't cover it up. Most importantly, Libby even went to do a paternity test for the child and confirmed that the child was his biological son. Hence she made up her mind to divorce him and demanded compensation. 

Libby's family were all in Geller's villa, demanding a solution to this matter. 

He was extremely anxious and had no choice but to find Gianna. 

He said, "I don't care. It is because of Gianna that Libby wants to divorce me. She must go to explain it to Libby clearly. Otherwise, you will have a hard time too." 

"You!" Sherman was startled by his attitude and didn't know what to say for a long time. 

Gianna sneered, "What do you want me to explain?" 

"You should..." 

Before he could finish speaking, Gianna interrupted him, "You mean you didn't cheat on Libby, or you didn't have an illegitimate child, or you didn't take your mistress into the Geller family?" 

"I..." Chace blushed and didn't know what to say for a moment.
