Chapter 78: Fanning the Flames
“You’ve always been my only princess, there’s nobody else.” Kingsley’s voice was low and the love talk he said echoed in her ears for a long time.
She really didn’t know how he could be so handy in seducing woman.
How did he say these words that were so doting? The key point was that the love talk was paired with his magnetic voice. A woman wouldn’t be able to resist.
“Glib.” Gianna pretended to be angry.
In fact, she was hiding the panic in her mind.
She felt that she would easily be titillated by this man in front of her if he continued.
What Maureen Torres said was right.
Even if she couldn’t stay with Caesar Kennedy, she couldn’t be with Kingsley also.
Men.
None of them were good.
“Let go of me. I’ve something very important to do.” She pushed against him who was leaning on her.
He didn’t look fat at all and he seemed to be somewhat slender and thin with his clothes on. However, she didn’t know why he was as heavy as iron at this moment, making her unable to move.
He looked at her red face, then he didn’t tease her anymore and got up from her.
She let out a sigh of relief.
She adjusted her emotion and made herself look serious, “Kingsley, I’ve something to talk with your family.”
He nodded.
He seemed to expect it.
“You go and see if your sister has gone back to her room.”
He frowned.
“Please.” She looked polite.
His mood changed quickly as his face looked bad suddenly, then he turned around and left.
A moment later, he stood in the doorway with his slender body leaning leisurely against the door and said to Gianna, “She has been back to her room. You can come out now.”
His tone clearly showed a bit of unpleasantness.
She didn’t know what he was angry about.
Shouldn’t he feel happy as she cared so much about his sister’s feeling?
Forget it.
She couldn’t figure him out anyway.
It only wasted her brain cells.
She took a breath secretly, then walked out of the room.
The members of the Walker family were all there downstairs.
They seemed to have just settled Florence down and were taking a short rest in the living room.
“Flory doesn’t have a seizure for a long time. It’s really scary. Luckily the doctor said it didn’t hurt the heart, so we must pay more attention next time,” Evelyn said.
“I’m worried what if she wakes up from her nap later and thinks of Pamilla again.” Darren Walker was annoyed.
“Should we go and choose a cat exactly like Pamilla for her and give her a surprise when she wakes up?” Edward Walker suggested.
“No need first, I’m afraid that she will get touchy if she sees another cat.” Caroline said, “Let’s see how she is when she wakes up and ask her opinion. I would rather hope not to have a pet after this as pets have limited time to keep company.”
“That’s right.” Evelyn agreed. She looked up at that moment and she was stunned.
The others looked at her gaze and looked over the direction as well.
Then they saw Kingsley and Gianna coming down from upstairs.
Didn’t she say …
She had already left?!
Why was she still there?
All of them were shocked, but they didn’t speak anything.
They knew that it would be something offensive if they speak up.
On the contrary, Gianna was very calm as she smiled graciously and said, “I still have something to talk with everyone, so I didn’t leave. I saw Flory go back to her room before following Kingsley downstairs. I won’t have met with her.”
“I’m sorry for you.” Caroline hurriedly stood up from the sofa, took the initiative to hold her hands and looked intimate.
She felt somewhat guilty.
“You’re too cordial, mom. I’ve said that I understand it.” Gianna smiled faintly, “I just have something to say to everyone. I’ll leave after I say it.”
“Have a seat. Flory is asleep now and she won’t be coming downstairs for a while.” Caroline hurriedly greeted. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Gianna nodded.
She sat on the sofa.
Everyone was looking at her.
They seemed to be waiting for her to talk.
She didn’t beat around the bush either and said, “The death of Pamilla has nothing to do with me …”
“You don’t need to explain that.” Caroline straight away interrupted her, “We all know clearly that it definitely wasn’t killed by you. Flory was too agitated this morning as it was a great shock on her. That’s why she was so outspoken. Don’t worry, all of us believe it had nothing to do with you and so does Flory.”
“If Flory believes that, I wouldn’t have to leave here.” She smiled and seemed to be helpless.
“She just got herself into a dead end because she couldn’t accept Pamilla’s death temporarily. She won’t be like this when she accepts it after a few days.” Caroline was trying her best to lighten the atmosphere.
“But I feel that it’s necessary for me to tell the truth.” Gianna was adamant.
“Didn’t you have promised well? Why do you change your mind now suddenly?” Janice Armand began to fan the flames, “Aren’t you deliberately making things difficult for Madame Walker?”
“Janice.” Edward called her in a low voice.
Janice didn’t care about Edward and she muttered, “If you don’t agree with the arrangement, you should have said. Don’t you feel shameless as you’re a bitch who was pretending to be chaste at the same time?”
“Janice!” his voice was obviously more unpleasant.
At that moment, she even sensed a piercing gaze.
She secretly gritted her teeth.
Kingsley had always scoffed at women.
He had never stood out for a woman.
Was he warning her with his eyes staring at her at this moment?!
Gianna looked at her too. Of course, she was clear that both of them were definitely not in cahoots, the reason why she had kindly reminded her to pay attention to Florence wasn’t because she was trying to help her. It was probably just a passing remark and she was waiting to have a laugh on her.
Now, Janice was probably still laughing secretly on her as she was also being bullied by Florence.
She couldn’t help but deliberately make a few sarcastic remarks to embarrass her and to balance out the aggression she has suffered, killing two birds with one stone.
To be honest, Caroline was indeed a bit upset at this moment.
She actually knew well that Gianna was really aggrieved due to this matter.
Whose daughter-in-law would be kicked out by her in-laws as she came on the first day?
She felt sorry too.
However, she had heard that Gianna had grown up with a good sense of propriety and believed that she could understand it.
Yet at this moment, Gianna insisted on proving her innocence, showing herself to be unforgiving.
Especially under Janice’s provocation, her action would easily make them to feel antipathetic.
After all, in their mind, Florence’s body was currently the most important.
Everything else was simply nothing!
