Her Cancellation of the Engagement novel Chapter 97

Chapter 97 Rely on the Finley Family

Originally, Sherman wasn't entirely certain about his own speculations, but witnessing Brenna's behavior only further chilled his already cold heart.

"Mom, why pretend not to understand? Where did Alisa get the money to hire these people to cause trouble? Can you deny that you are not in?"

"I don't care!" Brenna's face twisted with anger, interrupting Sherman rudely. "Gianna instigated the Finley family to do this, so she must be held accountable. She's part of the Geller family!"

"Huh, Mom, how did you try to stop me from taking Gia in before? Now you admit she's part of the Geller family?" Sherman's eyes were full of disappointment towards Brenna. "Gia's decision is her own, and I won't interfere."

In a daze, by looking at Brenna's twisted face, he remembered how Nora had suffered in the Geller family and was eventually driven out with Gianna.

His heart ached. He didn't give Brenna a chance to make a scene and said coldly, "Mom, we have broken off relations. I came to see you today out of family ties. You gave birth to me, so even if we have severed our relationship, you are still my mother. I can't help but come to see you when you're sick, but I'm not happy here, so I'll leave."

With that, he turned around and walked away without hesitation.

"Ungrateful son!" Brenna pounded the bed in anger. "I should have strangled him when I gave birth to him!"

"Mom, did you really send people to cause trouble at Sherman's house?" Enrique asked.

In the past, Enrique wouldn't care about how Brenna oppressed Sherman; he would even be delighted by it. However, now that the Geller family had fallen into such a situation, there was some resentment in his tone.

Brenna remained silent.

"What do we do now?" Chace became anxious, his eyes turning red. "Gianna refuses to see Mom, and the Finley family doesn't give us any chance, let alone pleading with Lloyd." We worked so hard to obtain the formula from Sherman. We were almost back to our glory days, and now it's all ruined!"

Just as Brenna was about to speak, footsteps were heard outside the ward. She sneered. "You are back, huh..."

The door was pushed open, but Brenna froze as she saw a middle-aged woman in a white linen suit with a beautiful appearance walking in.

Brenna was overjoyed. "Aleena! You're back now!"

"Mom." Aleena walked in with fruits and frowned as she saw the water on the floor and the thermo. "What's going on? They say that something happened at home when I arrived, and now you're hospitalized?"

Aleena was Brenna's only daughter, who settled in Acostan with her husband ten years ago and rarely returned.

Brenna has always doted on her only daughter, and now seeing Aleena, she felt a sourness in her heart and her eyes moistened.

"It's all because of Gianna, and Sherman!" she said in a resentful tone.

"Has Gia really come back?" Aleena was a little surprised. She often felt distressed when she thought of the time Nora and Gianna were driven out of the Geller family. She came back this time because she heard about this and wanted to see the niece she had always been concerned about.

"Sherman shouldn't have brought this troublemaker back!" Brenna said angrily.

Aleena furrowed her brows and asked for a detailed account of what had happened.

Although Brenna and Enrique exaggerated and were biased, Aleena still judged the situation herself.

Her originally gentle voice turned slightly grave. "This matter is clearly Alisa's fault. Since she did something wrong, she should clarify and apologize. Where is she? You care so much for her, but why isn't she here taking care of you when you're sick?"
