Chapter 228 Disappointment
Gael faked a chuckle Gianna, I understand that you are mad I’m furious too, but if something serious
were to happen to her, I think that you would be in trouble too.” Gianna sneered, “Don’t worry. I won’t
let her die, I want her to live in such a miserable state that she would wish she were dead. You’d better
remind your daughter to not fall into my hands again, because I’ll make sure to take her life then!” Her
voice was bone-piercingly cold, resembling the wind from a snow-capped mountain which could freeze
a person to death! He took a deep breath and spoke in embarrassment, “Gianna, I’ve failed you. l-Is
the child alright?”
She was like a porcupine that was full of spikes, especially when she was facing her father. If it weren’t
because he messed with Alana, allowed the mother and daughter to enter their house, and indulged
them, her child and her wouldn’t have fallen into such a

Therefore, how could a simple sorry make up for what he had done? “What do you consider serious,
then? He was injured all over when he was in Kaylee’s hands for only three or four hours. He kept
having nightmares at night, and this fear will affect his entire childhood. If it weren’t for his clever
escape, I doubt that my son would have been able to survive through that. Is your daughter insane?
After all these years, haven’t you taken her to go for any check-ups?” Gael replied, “I’m sorry, Gianna. I
was blind; I didn’t know that she’s such an extreme person.”
She coldly uttered, “There’s no need for you to say that. You have nothing to do with me anymore. If
the purpose of you calling me was to say these words, just forget about it. I’ll never forgive her. The
reason I didn’t take her life was not because for your sake; I just wanted her to live on to endure the
pain that she’s inflicted on my son!” Upon hearing that Gianna seemed to have the intention to hang up
the phone, he immediately said, “Gianna, this is not what I wanted to say I wanted to talk to you about
something else.” He paused for a moment at this point because he found it really embarrassing to ask
for her help, but he couldn’t just watch his company go bankrupt. “Gianna, please help me. Silas has
started to target Aubrey Company. I’m really at my wits’ end.” Hearing that, she was stunned for some
time. She thought that he called her because he was worried about his grandson’s injuries and was
pissed off by Kaylee’s action, so he wanted to apologize to her. Yes! He did express his concern just
now. Though it wasn’t sincere, it at least gave her a little comfort.
But who could have guessed that there was a blatant intention behind his fake concern.
From beginning until the end, he had never been concerned about South and her. If it hadn’t been
because of Silas targeting him, he wouldn’t have even made this insincere call. I’m utterly disappointed!
Why did I still have any hope in him? She was overwhelmingly disappointed in him. With a hand placed
on her chest, she lowered her eyes and chuckled. It turns out that extreme disappointment will cause
one to feel heartbroken! “Since Silas is targeting you, you should straightaway go and look for him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhy did you call me instead?” With that, she directly hung up her phone. She suddenly felt cold, so she
tightly hugged herself with both arms and buried her head between her legs, curling herself into a ball.
Why did he even call me? Wasn’t he exhausted to come out with those lines of fake concerns?
At night, Silas was called to Ruby Palace by Alex and Hayden. However, he kept drinking throughout
the night. He didn’t say nor eat much. Seeing that he was going to raise his glass again, Alex abruptly
pressed on his hand. “What’s wrong with you? Did you go through a breakup?” Silas didn’t answer. He
moved his hand away and downed another glass of beer before lazily casting a glance at him. “Who
did I even have a relationship with?”
Alex failed to hold back his laughter. “Looks like it’s an unrequited love. Tell me about it. Could it be that
you were driven out by Gianna, the little beauty?”
