At the main house of the Morris’s old mansion…

Gianna paused and continued, “Oh yes, I guess the reason granny asked me to come back is because of me and Caesar’s marriage?”

Joanna was startled and she clearly did not expect her to guess it out.

Gianna certainly did not experience that in her previous life, after all, what happened last night did not happen in her previous life, and naturally there were not the news and hot topic today. The reason she could hit the bulls-eye was that the people from the old mansion had been secretly colluding with the Kennedy’s, and they conspired to seize her father’s right of inheritance through the Kennedy’s.

Since Gianna had embarrassed the Kennedy’s now, Joanna certainly had to teach her a lesson for the Kennedy’s.

It was just that she did not expect that Gianna was no longer easy to be bullied now and her few words had made her face flushed like never before.

“I’ll be frank to tell you that I had indeed received a jewel from Kingsley Walker last night and embarrassed Caesar in front of everyone.” As she spoke, she took out the dazzling sapphire.

The jewel shone with great brilliancy. With its impeccable cutting, long history and rareness, every woman would go mad for it. Even Joanna could not help but take a few glances at it.

However, her face was brimmed with contempt. “I can’t believe you’re that shameless to say that, what a barefaced brat!”

“I have my reasons when I received the jewel. Firstly, we Morris’s are merchants, and a merchant won’t decline anything that falls into his lap, therefore I have no reason to reject Kingsley’s offer. Secondly, I knew very well that granny is a jewel collector. I knew granny would love this jewel the moment I saw it, therefore if it’s not because of Caesar stopping me, I would have bought it. But, although I didn’t manage to get it since Kingsley is willing to give it to me, I’ll take it with delight.”

Joanna still did not understand what she meant completely.

Gianna then said, “I wanted to give this jewel to granny in the first place.”

Joanna’s eyes gleamed a little.

She was clearly moved.

She had heard about that jewel from others before, yet knowing that she would be incapable to get it, she never talked about it. Now that it had shown up before her, it was impossible for her to stay calm and ignore it.
