His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 215

"Grandma...." Becky held Joanna's hands, "Aron listens to you. You can surely talk him back into marrying me."

"Becky, I wanted to talk to you so I could apologize and acknowledge your efforts in caring for me and my husband. In return, I did treat you with the due love that befits a granddaughter-in-law. But with what happened...... It is quite another story...."

Becky slowly let go of her hands, losing almost all hope.

Joanna would have considered forgiving Becky despite her faking pregnancy and even pushing her into a coma. But Joanna could not overlook Becky shifting the blame onto Isla who almost got thrown into prison because of it. She could not possibly give Becky another chance now.

"Becky, I have to remind you. Even though Aron grew up under my love and care, he is now a grown man with his own thinking and disposition. Anyone, I am sure, would be furious at your treachery." Joanna let out a heavy sigh, "I had long assumed that Aron had a prejudice against you. Now, Aron should be able to choose whom to marry at his own discretion. He knows what kind of girl is right for him. My husband and I will no longer interfere with his decisions."

"It being the case, there is no point of my staying here!" Becky quickly changed her tone, dropping her act. With all possible hope lost, there was no need to talk to Joanna with respect. She let out a sinister smile, "Don't you know? I can't wait to see you dead. After your death, Aron will be mine forever."

Becky screamed out to Joanna. "You are as good as dead to me!"

Joanna remained well poised at Becky's sudden change of character, for there was no point of getting mad at her.

Joanna grinned, "You have lost your mind. I dare say if you killed me, Aron would send you to jail, much less marry you." Joanna continued, "Although Mike and I trusted you wholeheartedly, Aron kept searching for evidence to prove your faked pregnancy during his four years abroad. Now that he has them all, he has the power to deal with you and give you what you deserve. Pestering us this way will get you nowhere."

Becky's countenance turned pale. So Aron had never believed in her. That explained why Aron had developed a lukewarm attitude towards her, and had refused to acknowledge their relationship.

Joanna continued, "Becky, Mike and I would have forced your marriage on him had we not learned of your evildoing. What a pity.... You are still an amateur. You should have been more careful with the steps you took until the completion of your plot."

Becky was overwhelmed with regret and futility at the realization of the loss of Joanna's trust and support.

"Grandma...." Becky grasped Joanna's hands, and again started to plead. But Joanna was no longer in the mood to continue this conversation "Becky, we are willing to turn a blind eye to what you have done. But if you still have some sanity, you and Aron should discuss a way to call off the wedding. Besides that....... I really don't know what else I can do for you. "

Joanna intentionally closed her eyes, paying no heed to what Becky would say.

It was getting difficult for her to withstand the growing sense of disappointment in Becky who failed to live up to her expectations.
