Gianna's eyes darkened. She fixed her cold eyes on him for a moment, and then sat opposite him.
She said to the waiter, "Excuse me, please serve all the most expensive dishes."
Upon hearing this, the waiter was stunned and kindly reminded, "Miss, there are over a hundred dishes in our hotel, and each one is quite expensive. You two can't eat so many food."
Gianna raised her eyes, with a faint smile touching her red lips. She pointed towards Lloyd sitting across from her with a delicate finger, saying in a melodious voice, "Serve three specialty dishes, and send the rest to Fallingwater Community. He will pay the bill."
The waiter couldn't help but look at Lloyd.
Lloyd took out a bank card and handed it to the waiter with a smiling face. "Do as she said."
The waiter responded and left.
Soon, three dishes were served.
Gianna picked up knife and fork to eat.
Lloyd poured a glass of drink for her, and then poured his own glass with wine. He picked up the glass and said, "Ms. Geller, thank you very much for helping me on Lancaster Mountain."
He didn't mention that he would repay her.
He could almost guess that once he said that, the woman would definitely ask him to break off the engagement.
Gianna lifted her eyes slightly, wearing a smile and saying, "If you wan to repay me, just break off our engagement."
Lloyd was wordless.
His countenance almost froze for an instant!
"Did she know how to read minds?"
"Well, I should repay you." Lloyd picked up his glass and took a sip of wine, continuing slowly, "How about marrying me?"
"What?"
Gianna lifted her eyes and looked at him. She had to admit that he was a handsome looker.
But he had no sense of shame!
"So..." Lloyd took out the pendant again and touched it gently with his slender fingers. "What if I exchange this pendant for your engagement to me?"
Gianna's expression changed. Her delicate face became chilly. "You are threatening me?"
"It's a reward!" Lloyd said with a smile, "I picked up the pendant that is very important to you. Don't you think you need to repay me?"
Gianna had an impulse to beat Lloyd up.
If she had known he was such a scoundrel, she should have thrown him to feed the dog on Lancaster Mountain!
She looked up at him and suddenly curled her lips. "This pendant is not that important to me either. Since you don't want to give it to me, then throw it away."
Lloyd paused. "She was really not easy to be fooled."
He placed the pendant in front of Gianna and said, "I have one pendant that is the same as it."
Gianna suddenly looked up at him seriously. "How did you get it?"
Her mother and she had one pendant respectively. However, after her mother passed away, she found that her mother's pendant was missing when sorting through her belongings.
Suddenly, she thought of the news that she asked others to find out. After her mother's death, Lloyd had also visited their residence. He was looking for something.
Was he looking for people or things?
A fierce aura emanated from all over Gianna's body.
"An old friend gave it to me as a gift!" Lloyd raised his eyes. Not as relaxed as before, he said quite solemnly, "Ms. Geller, I invite you over today to thank you for saving my life that day. Moreover, I hope you can reconsider our engagement."
If this pendant didn't belong to Gianna, he wouldn't insist on their engagement.
Because he had found the pendant and she was the Ms. Geller who was engaged to him, their engagement couldn't be withdrawn!
Gianna looked down at the pendant on the table, as if thinking about something.
After a long time, she put away the pendant and said, "I will reconsider it!"
"Okay!" Lloyd smiled gently. "I'm waiting for your reply."
Gianna stopped talking and stood up to leave. At the same time, Lloyd suddenly remembered something and asked, "I want you to save my younger sister."
Gianna raised her eyebrows and squinted, saying with a wicked smile, "Mr. Finley, do you think that I'm a kind person because I saved you before?"
Lloyd was about to speak. Gianna suddenly bent down and got close to him. The next second, she held a small dagger to his neck.
Her red lips were slightly close to his ear. She whispered like a demon, "I can save you, and I can also kill you."
Her warm breath hit his ear, and his body temperature suddenly increased.
Lloyd's body tightened for a moment. He put two slender fingers on the sharp dagger and took it away, and then he leaned forward. His lips almost touched Gianna's. "Gia, are you going to murder your husband?"
Gianna blushed slightly as he suddenly approached, feeling a bit uneasy. Her eyes dodged for a moment.
Lloyd reached out his big hand and grabbed her waist from behind, making her body closer to him. He said in an alluring tone, "I'm a good kisser. Isn't it a pity to kill me?"
His voice seemed to have a magical power. What's more, his eyes made Gianna's heart pound ceaselessly.
What a damn suffocating atmosphere!
After a moment, she was secretly annoyed by herself. She had always been indifferent, but she unexpectedly fell into his trap without realizing it.
She stood up and kept some distance from him, slowly retracting the dagger and saying, "You are good-looking. It's a pity to kill you."
Lloyd deepened his smile and said, "So can you treat my sister? I can give you a reward."
Gianna adjusted her mood and raised her lips slightly. "You've found the wrong person. I don't know how to treat people. It was someone else who treated you that day."
Lloyd was stunned for a moment. Before he said something, Gianna uttered some words, "As for our engagement, it depends on your sincerity."
After saying this, she turned around and left.
Gianna took a taxi to go to Fallingwater Community.
Just as she arrived at the entrance of the community, she saw Sherman and Laney stopping the taxi in a panic.
"Hurry up. We're going to Star Bilingual Kindergarten. Please speed up."
Gianna frowned and got out of the taxi. "Mr. Geller, what happened?"
Sherman turned his head fiercely and was stunned when he saw Gianna. "Gia?"
Gianna nodded and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Your younger brother's school called me and said that Ronan quarreled with a kid and even injured him. We should go over there."
Laney's eyes turned red and she said, "Ronan is obedient and timid. He suddenly hit others. I'm worried about him."
Sherman turned to look at Gianna. "Gia, you go home first. We will go to the kindergarten."
Gianna lowered her eyes. After a while, she pressed her lips and said, "Let's go together."
After a while, they arrived at Star Bilingual Kindergarten.
"He is a poor and uneducated kid. You should expel him from the school."
Gianna, Sherman and Laney walked to the door of the principal's office and heard a sharp voice.
Although Sherman had a weak character, he would protect his child at all times.
He wouldn't allow anyone to insult or slander his child.
Upon hearing this, he opened the door in anger. "Who are you saying is uneducated?"
